jim Crow CARs.-Mr. James K.
Cation, Delegate 10 the Legislature
from this city and county, was IN the
city vest srdsy, and smong other Things
referred to the bill now before the
Legislature to compel those operating
electric railroads in Virginia to provide
separate cars for colored people. Mr..
Cat IN said ne was fighting almost
alone for the adoption of the bill and
against great odds. The railroads are
ne tnrally hostile - the proposed law
add will do all they can ID defeat It,.
Tbey have a number of representatives
Ia Richmond and are endesvoring to
form a powerful lobby which will use
every means to render his labors futile.
The railroad people are circulating all
s1its Of ST ories calculated to impede
the passage Of the bill, one OF which
il TO the effect that the people OF Alex
andria ere uDcoDcerned In the mater
and that Mr.. Cation Is aetuated by re-
sentiment 10 introducing the measure,
his relations with the president OF the
electric rail way between this city and
Washington not having been cordial
of late: also that there 10 no sentiment
In Alexandria in favor OF separate cars
for colored people. 1t would be super
erogaiion for the Gazette to reiterste
that there ia chronic complaint from
the people OF lis city against being CON-
PEELED to ride 10 electric cars between
this city ard Washington with coloIed
people, a. members Of the latter race
spread ell over the cars and take pride
Ia making white people cit alongside OF
them and otherwise rendering them
uncomfortable. Mr.. Cation says II
delegation Cf citizsOs would go to
Redmond and appear before the com
mittee much would be done toward
helping him 10 getting the measure
through the Lseisls ture. The commit
tee would fix day t. hear them. de
suggests that a delegation go down
Wednesday and make q statement
before the committee to the effect that
Alexsudrians are clsmoriDg for the
passage of the law aud that they are
urging their Delegate to pub the
matter.

Liquid Air.

II. B. Thearle and H. M. Hanaford
have arranged for demonstration of
the wonderful properties of liquid air
at Lake Hall on the evening of the I'd
OF January. Liquid air is one of the
most wonderful discoveries of this or
any other age. While it is 3l2 degrees
below zero it will produce heat $500
degrees above that point. 1t is entirely
dry and yet flows like water Many
experiments are tried with the liquid
that seem al possibility, such as
boiling kettle of water on cake Of
ice and freezing the same kettle over
hot fire. No one should miss the op-
portunity of seeing this wonderful
liquid and The uses it can be put to-
Steel by the use of this marvellous
liquid can be burned in common
tum bier and ball OF rubber immersed
in it will be broken like glass when
dropped to the floor. Remem Der that
it will be the only chance in years to
see these experiments.

How to Prevent Group.

1t will be good news to the mothers
of small children to learn that Group
can be prevented. The first sign of
Group is hoarseness. A day or two
before the attack the child becomes
hoarse. This Is soon followed by a
peculiar rough cough. Give Cham Der.
lain's Cough Remedy freely AS soon as
the child becomes hoarse, or even after
the rough cough appears, aud it will
dispel all symptoms of Group. Ia this
way all danger and anxiety may be
avoided. This remedy is used by
many thous usauds Of mothers and has
never been known to fail. Ii is, in
fact, the only remedy that can always
be depended upon and that is pleasant
and safe to take. For sale by H. II.
