Delegate James R. Cation, who has just
returned from Richmond after the Closing
morning about the status of the measure
he introduced in the house for the separ-
ate seating of white and colored passengers
on the electric lines in this city and Alex
andria county. He stated that the bill
which he succeeded in getting through the
tower body was so amended in the senate
as to make the matter optional with the
railroad companies. Instead of separate
cars or compartments, provided in the
original bill, the senate passed an amend
ment for separate seating of the two races
In the same coaches. In this shape it was
returned TO the house few days before
adjournment and, Mr.. Cation said, nothing
could be done except to adopt il. He said
he had been informed that a, representa-
tive of the Washington, Alexandria and
Mount Vernon Railroad Company, the line
principally affected, had pledged that COM
pany to certain senator to carry out the
purpose of the bill If the amendment max
Ing 1t optional were adopted. Mr.. Cation
did not know whether the bill had yet re-
ceived the signature Of Gov. Montague.
The bill that the AeXa ndria delegate sue

said. met with general approval in this

AMERICAN HORSES ABROAD.
Growth of the Export Trade Has
Created II Demand for Yankee
Trainers of Racing stock.

In Europe to-day not a single coun-
try raises enough horses to meet its
own actual demand in times of peace,
and the facilities for breeding and
raising horses are growing poorer
every year. There are few good graz
ing lands and stock-breeding farms in
Europe, where horses can be raised
on a large scale, and, consequently,
this country becomes more and more
the land for keeping the European
armies supplied with their proper
complement of horses and mules. re-
ports the Scientific American.
In recent years the American trOt-
ters and fine carriage horses have be-
come important factors in the export
trade, and, whereas a few decades ago
such a thing as an American horse was
hardly to be found abroad, to-day we
have a steady stream of them going
to all the European centers.
Not even Russia has hesitated to
avail herself of our beS t-blooded stock,
although for years the Orloff strain
of trotting stock held complete su-
premacy in the minds of the cars pa
triotic citizens. But loyalty to a rul-
ing house cannot forever last and the
best thing the Russian horse lovers
could do was to import American stall
lions for crossing with their Orloff
breed, and then few American breed
ers and trainers to go over and show
them how the Americans did is. So
we have to-day not only American
horses and trOtterS in abundance in
Russia, but American trainers and
breeders practically in control of the
royal stables and stock farms. Each
year a good-sized consignment of the
best American trotters go ABROAD to
add new blood and speed to the ears
stock.
Germany, next to England, is prob
ably one of our best European GUS
toners for horses, and there is a
steady, healthy demand from that
country that promise to continue and
develop indefinitely as the years go by.
The American trotting horses at the
Vienna race tracks are not only fea-
lures Of the exhibitions, but they cap
ture large percentage of the prizes.
There is no better way to advertise
American horses and methods of
training than to take a few of them
abroad and enter the races in COM
petition with the European horses.
France became so jealous of our sue
cess in this line on her native soil
that she practically prohibited foreign
horses from entering the races. In
Cameron County press. [volume] (Emporium, Cameron County, Pa.) 1866-1922, 1902-09-04

fact, to-day very few French races
are open to horses from other coun.
tries, and the French sportsmen have
this show practically all to them
selves; but fortunately for them, the
small glory attached to a restricted
competition of this character makes
it almost an empty honor. However,
a good many French horsemen are
purchasing American trOtters, and in
a roundabout way getting the Amer
lean horses to the front in the home
races. In time it will be necessary for
the sake of the sport to open the races
to more general competition.
\ good many American horses are
sent to Belgium. and then they are
taken across to France, and within a
very short time appear on the French
turf as home-bred horses.
Italy, Denmark and Holland are
good buyers Of our trotting horses,
and the annual shipments to these
countries are considerable, while far
off New Zealand and Australia make
small drafts upon our resources. To
see that these American trotterS eX-
ported are as represented, the Ma
tional Trotting assOcia tiOn has export
officers in a number of our seaports to
issue certificates of pedigrees and iden-
THY to the high-grade horses shipped.
This is to prevent fraud, and thus in
jury to the American horse trade in
foreign countries, and it was first sug-
gested by the European trotting asso-
Citations. Several thousand certifi-
Gates have been issued for high-class
racing stock, but these do not include
the trotting-bred roadsters or fine car
riage horses.

in the act when a carriage drove
rapidly down to the stage and two
tardy passengers hurried aboard
The mate bawled from his station
on the hurricane deck:
"Now, then! Take turn on that
spring line out there and get them
trunks aboard! Lively!"
The larger of the two trunks fell
to the late recruit; and when he had
set it down at the door of the desig-
mated stateroom he so far forgot

and was not without embarrassment
at having been caught reading the
tag. But when he saw the owner of
the voice, CONSERVATION slew shame,
and he was prompted to make a wild
dash for liberty. For Miss Farnham
was no other than the young wom-
an to whom he had given place at
the teller's window in the Bayou
bank.
She saw his confusion, OWNED the
first cause of it and smiled. Then
he met her gaze fairly and became
sane again when he made sure that
she did not recognize him-became
sane, and snatched off his cap and
dragged the trunk into the state
room; after which he went to his
place with n great thanllfulness
throbbing in his heart and an in
choate resolve shaping itself in his
brain.
Late that night, when the Belle
Julie was well on her way to the
northward, he flung himself down
upon the freight on the engine-room
guard to snatch a little rest between
landings, and the resolve became
sufficiently cosmic to formulate itself
in words.
"I'll call it an oracle,"he said.
zone place is as good as another, so
it be small enough; and / am sure
l have never heard of Wahaska."
Now Griswold the proletary was,
before all things else, Griswold the
imaginative craftsman; and no soon
er was the question of his destina-
tion set4led than he began to pre-
figure the place and it's probable
lacks and havings. This process
brought him by easy gradations to
pleasant idealizings of Miss Farm
ham, who was, thus far, the only
thing tangible connected with the
destination dream. Whereupon her
personality laid hold upon him and
the idealizings became purely lit
erary.

REASON AND THE LAW.

Cy Perkins was a cranky man. Joe Bunker
was the same;
To make each other trouble was each 9TH
er's only aim,
And, as they had adjoining farms, It hap
pened very soon;
To put the matter plainly, there was blood
upon the moon"
A cut there was through Bunkers wood
that made a shorter way,
And Cyrus chose that road to town, despite
all Joe could say.
Though Bunker daily stormed and raved
as no good Christian should,
Yet Perkins calmly held his way through
that convenient wood.
~"Your wood" he cried, derls!vely; there's
nothing here to show
That all men with lmpunity may not thus
ever go.
There is no fence, there is no sign; there's
naught that | espy
That does a passage through this wood to
any man deny
So. breathing threats OF what he'd do, Joe
Bunker bought a sign
OF "Trespassng Forbidden Here!' that
measured six by nine.
In joyful triumph and a cart he brought It
out from town.
But never noticed at the time he had nailed
It upside down.
now take care of me-
The law demands that you shall heed the
sign that there you see.
There's no excuse that will be good II you
keep passing through,
And l serve notice on you now that will
surely sue"
1.-THE law" said Perkins thoughtfully, as
strange in many ways.
And l Will heed all barriers that It may
fairly raise.
Your sign, no doubt, is excellent, and If
only knew
Just what it says I'm satisfied I'd bow to
1t and you"
EHTurn back" cried Bunker angrIly, 'for
there you see the sign!'
But Perkins, starting up his horse. replied:

RoIIer-RoOfed Cars.

A Leeds England commercial trav-
eler seems to have solved the hitherto
insoluble problem of providing a dry
seat in wet weather. He has adopted
the principle of the roller-topped desk.
When the cover is on the ordinary
electric ear suggests a double-decked
railway saloon; when it is off the
vehicle resumes its usual aspect, with
the addition of the light circular grid
ers which sustain the roller covering
in position. To remove the roller COW
ering all that is necessary to be done
is to release it, and allow it to de-
scend into easements provided for it
at the sides of the car. This it does
in three sections on each side-frst
the windows-for windows are pro-
vided-and then successfully the other
two sections, the easement accommo-
dating them side by side. The roller
covering is sandwiched with india-rub-
ber and thus made not only water
proof but also electric proof.-Albany

On his way from Clifton Down to
Avonmouth the prince of Wales
passed in the avon gorge a curious
structure, to which a singular tradi-
tion is attached. The story is that
person named Cook about n CEN
tury ago was told by gypsy in the
Leigh woods that his only son would
be killed by a serpent before he
reached the age of 81. To avert this,
he built high tower, and shut his
son in the topmost room. with the
intention of secluding him there un-
til the fatal age was past. How
ever, by accident, viper was taken
up in a faggot and bit the boy so
that he died. Therefore, the tower
was called Cooks Folly, and that is
it's name to this day, whatever is the
true planation.-London Tatler.
