Need Not Shave Nearoes.

Hartford, Conn, March e.-The su-
preme court of the state has decided
that BARRIERS in this state need not
shave colored men. The decision was
reached on an appeal from super,o-
court decision in Bridgeport by S.
Henry H. Foulknes, a colored man
who brought suit against Thomas
Solazzi, barber of that city. Solazzi
refused to shave Foulknes, his defense
being that his barber shop was not a
place of public accommodation within
the meaning of the law The supreme
court upholds that contention.

Burro Drivers Carry Candies.

In Mexico all vehicles, be they
handcart. automobile, or anything be-
tween, must carry light at night
This rule or law is rigidly enforced.
Even the drivers of the poor little
burro or mule carts, on their TWO
wheels, must carry light.
So. rather than buy lanterns, which
cost money, they take dip candle,
and wrapping it in a bit of newspa-
per to shield it from the wind, carry
IL in their left hand as they drive
along homeward from work after
evening has fallen. The effect Is
striking, as the light, falling strongly
on the Indian driver, throws the face
of the man into strong relief against
the darkness.

Many anglers have great faith in
fish as weather prophets. II storm

biting, and they won't bite again until
the storm is past. They also foretell
the near approach of cold weather.
Hours before 1t comes fish leave the
shallow waters in-shore and seek deep
er water, which, owing to its depth.
will stay warm and keep an equable
temperature after the shallower and
surface waters are cold.

PENALTIES FOR LATE TRAINS.

Springfield RepubliCan-The Wis
cOnsn railroad commission, following
the example of the Massachusetts
board, is to require railroads to re-
port failures to observe timetables in
the passenger service and the reasons
therefor. But it is stated that the.
Wisconsin body is to go further and
compel the roads to run trains on
time. How it is going to do this does
not appear. 1t has no power to fine
road every time a train is late If,
however, the situation in that state.
Is as bad as it is along the inc of the
Bosom and Albany in this state, there
would arise a well-nigh irresistible
demand for legislation subjecting
railroads to fines for failures to OBJ
serve time schedules. And such a
remedy is suggested by the railroads
themselves as in the case of the Penn
sylyania 1S-hour train from New York
to Chicago, where the road refunds
a certain proportion of the fare paii
for every hour OF delay in keeping
the schedule. Late trains would
pretty quickly become a thing of the
past, save only in rare cases. were
the roads compelled to apply this
principle throughout their passenger
service
