INTEREST IN CAR MEASURES linn Crow Bill for Street
 Cars. RACES TO BE KEPT SEPARATE Various Means Permitted to Attain
 Object. Another Proposed Enactment by Sea. ator Hamburger Would Provide Half Fare Street Car Tickets / for School Children.
RACES TO BE KEPT SEPARATE

The two street car regulation bills introduced by Senator Max Hamburger are attracting general attention. It IS expected that they will meet with much favor among the members of the two Houses.
 The first bill seeks to solve a prob lem that has bothered bit the street car companies and the peace oincers of Southern cities. The bill makes 1t compulsory upon a street car company operating in Alabama to provide sep arate accommodations for white and negro passengers. Mobile, the home city of Senator Hamburger, is especial ly interested in this particular meas ure because of the opening in the near future of the National Negro Fair As sociation near Mobile.
 The other street car bill seeks to es- tablish a special rate for Alabapa school children on street cars. It Is proposed in the bill to cut the rate for school children in half. In some cities street car books are sold to school children at half rates. but a number Of restrictions are thrown around the use and sale of these books. Under the bill of Senator Hamburger. these re- strictions are removed.
 The street car bills of Senator Ham burger are as follows:
 "A Dill 10 De entltleu an act tO pTo- vide for equal but separate accommo- dations for the white and negro races on street railway systems in the State of Alabama:
 'First-Be 1t enacted by the Legis- lature of Alabama, that all street rail- roads carrying passengers in this State shall provide equal but separate ac- commodations, for the white and negro races by providing separate cars. or a trailer car for each passenger car. or by dividing the passenger cars into compartments or movable partitions, so as to secure separate accommodations.
 "Second-The conductor of each pas- senger car Is authorized and required to assign each passenger to the car or the division of the car. when it Is. di- vided into compartments or movable partitions, designated for the race to which such passenger belongs; and if any passenger refuses to occupy the car, or the division of the car to which he is assigned by the conductor. such conductor may refuse to carry such passenger on the car, and for such re- fusal neither the conductor nor the

PLANET MARS.
Mere Matter sf 3s,000,000 Milea
 Away.

Mere Matter ef 3s,000,00O Miles
 Away.
 Mars, the red planet. is in the imme- diate neighborhood. says The St. Louis Post-Dispatch. It was only 3S,0OO,0O0 miles from the earth at o'clock Sum- day night. when summer garden bugs took 1t for the moon in eclipse.
 The astronomers nay that the war like luminary Is several millions Of miles nearer human beings than 1t was on May l, for instance, when the dis tance was s0.00o.000 miles. On June l. the approaching stranger had cut the last figure down by 10,Ooo,00o miles.
 Such favorable opportunity for study ing the Marttan canals will not happen again until August. 1922. when another generation may have gotten into com munication with the inhabitants with whom gorgeous fancy peoples this sphere 4,200 miles in diameter.
 Mars fairly scintillates these nights before the naked eye. This unusual brilliancy Is ascribed to the, circum- the opposite side of the earth from the sun, the great solar light that fur nishes its present refecting power.
 This position makes the planet nine times more effulgent than under ordl- nary co iditions. Several expeditions organized this year to take advantage of its favorable position are studying the planet from the tops of Andean peaks in Peru. The atmosphere in those regions is so clear that detailed photographs can be taken of the planet. Then there is the hope that an tnhabi- tant or two may be caught.
 St. Louis is not so near the planet as the South American snow caps. which precludes the chance of any valuable contributions to scientific discovery being made here. Even the bright streaks which star-gazers for 2o00 years have accepted as canals. cannot be seen through any telescope of which this city boasts.
 Through the instrument of Rev Mar tin S. Brennan. the most powerful mag nifier in St. Louis, Mars Is no larger than a goose egg. Father Brennan, one of the most noted astronomers in the country, has given considerable study to the planet, with the result that in his opinion 1t betrays condi- lions not favorable to life on its sur face.
 At certain periods" says Father Brennan. the Visible snowcaps at its poles melt and flood its entire surface, at other times the temperature falls to 100 or 200 degrees centigrade below zero, which would destroy any human life with which we are acquainted. 2
 The canals appear to run in per fectly parallel lines. being a1niost as regular as the strands in a spider 8 web. more remarkable fact Is that the canals are seen double. Schia- parelli. the noted Italian astronomer. who knows more about Mars than any one else. thinks that small secondary lines are caused by vegetation growing on the banks of the canals
 "The earth will not be affected by the near approach of the planet. the distance being so great that no dis taurbance of any kind can result. It can come no nearer our planet. The opportunity for gaining as much ip- formation as we may ever know, with out more powerful instruments. ia right now and science is taking full advantage of the boon."

Legislature of Alabama that all foreign corporations doing business in this state which are liable for an annual franchise tax shall be allowed their actual capishl employed. or to be em- ployed in this State. that part of such capital which consists of money loaned secured by recorded mortgages on real estate situated in this state. and the annual franchise taxes shall. be based and computed on the remaining capital after such deduction.
 A bili to rpeal the money lending tax had been introduced In the House and reference to the committee on Ways and Means. It was determined to guide the compromise measure through the House as the first stage of its legislative Journey. because ac- cording to one view 1t could be con- sidered a revenue measure. and the constitution says that all revenue measures shall originate in the House
 Senator Teasley himself appeared yesterday morning before the House Committee on Ways and Means ana discussed the bill which was agreeable to all concerned. The bill met the favor of the committee and 1t will be brought in this morning under favor- able report.
 There are now two bills dealing with the same subject in the Committee on Finance and Taxation of the Senate. one was introduced by Senator Miller and provides a graduated tav on money loaned in Alabama but the tax Is so small that 1t can well be called nomi- nal. The original Teasley bill Is also before the committe-the bill which exempts foreign money lending cor, porations from all franchise ana all advalorem.
 The Finance and Taxation Committee met yesterday but in view of the agree ment under way. held up tne " Senate hills for the passage by the House of the compromise measure.

In the latest dispatches from Cuba we learn of attempt to burn the American ouartermaster's corral at Havana, in which there were 250 horses and mules, a quantity of supplies and a num- Der of wagons. The fire broke out while the employees were at supper and was undoubtedly of an incendiary origin, and it is now believed that a fire last week in the medical depot in the arse nal was also incendiary, despite the fact that an Investigating board declared it to be accidental.
 This is only one of many like reports which we constantly hear and which speak so eloquently of the loyalty to this govern ment and of the respect for it's authority which obtains in Cuba.
 It is worth our while, after all, to attempt to construct a free and independant republic out of a parcel of white monarchists, @ group of yellow agitators, and horde of negros?
 We have every evidence that the United States is cordially hated for it's pains by Spaniard and Cuban alike, and while it is better to work for 0 brilliant end than to attain a mediocre one, we wonder if the game is worth the candle; if we are not too ltruiStic.

There are three great rocks ahead of the practical young man
 who has his feet upon the the ladder and is beginning to rise.
 First, drunkenness, which, ot course is fatal There is no use wasting any time on the young man who drinks liquor, no mat ter how exceptional his talent. Second, speculation. The busi- ness of a speculator and that of a manufacturer or man of affairs are not only distinct but incom- patable. The m manu fracture r should go forward steadily, meeting the mark ct prices. When there are goods to sell, sell them; when supplies are needed, purchase them, without regard to the market prlce Tn either case. 1 have never known a specula tive manufacturer or business man who scored a permanent success; he is rich one day, bank rupt the next. The third rock is akin to speculation-endors- ing. There are emergencies, no doubt in, which men should help their friends, but there is rule that will keep one safe: no man should place his name on the ob- ligatiOn of another if he hus not to meet it without det- riment to his business.
