is within the power Of the railroad
commissioners to compel the roads
to do this.
II the states do not take up the
matter, which they are not likely to
do, and compel the roads to give all
passengers equal accommodation for
equal money the national government
ought to take up the matter. II 1t
does not, then these oppressed and
sWindled class Of passengers must
take up the matter themselves, and
IN some way strive to induce the
roads TO charge only a second or third
class fare for the present Jim Crow"
service, for to charge more is nothing
less than a swindle.
In conclusion I viii say that the
want Of time and present length OF
this article will not permit me to
speak Of the "Jim Crow" as it has
been extended into the street cars,
ships, churches theaters,
and by the way, you Chicago people
have a taste Of that in the Alhambra,
and am surprised to say you put up
with It. Il is seen in the hotels, res
and even in the grave yards.
It will take time, education, Chris
ianity, manhood, womnahoOd and
wealth to bring about justice in this
lncivilizei system.

The Class Of Passengers.

In these places our school teachers
college professors, editors, preachers
bishops, lawyers, business men and
other ladies and gentlemen must
ride, and for which service must pay
for first rates. We will touch this
part of the subject further on.
1 am not able to say who was the
first to introduce the Jim Crow" car
bill.
The object of the law was said to
be to separate the races on trains.
In this it is a failure. 1t keeps the
coIored passengers crowded into the
filthy, uncomfortable end Of a car,
while the white male passengers come
in when they please, ride, eat their
lunches and often drink their whisky
in the presence Of our women. Again
a colored nurse or other servant trav-
cling with their employer can ride
in any first class car. The James
Grow law is not applicable to the
colored servant; but to the colored
gentleman or lady Of education,
wealth, culture, refinement, morals
and all that go to make up the Amer
lean citizen.
1t is that class that is feared, and
every time any law is enacted against
said class it is an acknowledgment /
that the authors of said law are the
most frightened of all.
It is not the sparrow put in the
strongest cage, it is the bravest and
all powerful eagle It is not the play
full squirrel that is guarded by the
strong iron bars Of the cage, it is the
bold, aggressive and uncomfortable
lion. Neither is it the quiet Jew or
inert Chinaman that these Jim Crow
laws are made against, but they are

THE EVIL EFFECTS CROW CAR LAW IN THE SOUTH.
IT'S A SYSTEM
BY Doctor H. r. Butler Of Atlanta, Ga.

The James Crow Car is a peculiar
piece Of rolling stock. 1t usually con
sists Of the worst car, with partition
near the middle One end is the col.
ored peoples car. The other end is
the smoker for the gentlemen. On the
return trip the smoking end is the
colored peoples car, and what was
their car going is the smoker return
ing. Hence going or coming our gen
tlemen and ladies have q chance to
become fairly well saturated with to-
bacco fumes.
The degrees in goodness or bad
ness Of these Jim Crow" cars differ
in different states and especially in
proportion to their distance from the
civilization Of large cities. Some are
very good on through trains, but they
are miserably poor on short lines. AS
one travels to the interior Of some Of
the states these Jim Crows" show IN
mistakable evidence Of filth, whisky,
smoke and disease. Some Of the cars
have had wood seats, no upholstering
at all. In many, in the coolest of
days, there is no fire. Only two weeks
ago I was a passenger on the Central
railroad of Georgia, leaving Atlanta
at lao a. m, and although had paid
for first class accommodation was
compelled to ride in one Of these cold
James Crow cars from Atlanta to Al |
bany, a distance of fully 165 miles.

When ne Shaves Himself.

81 can tell In a minute simply by
looking at man whether he shaves
himsels or is shayen by a ba. Der. "
said the weilder of the razor and
brush. mo, it isn't a question OF
cleanliness. nor yet question of hac-
king the face. There is no reason
why a man who is accustomed to sha-
wing himself should mt make as clean
job of it as the average barber.
And yet l can spot him every time.
See that little lock of haT that grows
down the side of the face just In front
of the ears? Well, when man is
shaved by a barber those two locks
don't vary in length more than six
teenth of an inca. The man who
shaves himself, on the other hand, is
invariably lopsided. He always be-
gins to shave higher up q the left
side of the face than on the right side,
as consequence of which one side of
the face looks longer than the other.
mo, l don't know that l can explain
this phenomenon. 1 only know that
the condition exists.

states that while crossing the little
bridge over Norris creek north of

tracted by very noisy splashing in
the water and looking in the direction
from which it came, he was surprised
to see large carp entangled in the
meshes Of the barb wire. Wading in
to the water he captured the fish and
had hardly deposited 1t in place of
safety on the bank, when another
fish came down the stream and was
caught in the same manner. Upon
taking the fish home, they were found
to weigh fourteen and eight pounds
