Washington does well to cfoclare that the world outside tie South hears many times of difficulties fceiween (be races and scarcely ever of "the healthy progress which both races are making every day." Equally commendable Is his further statement that he knows no other part of the globe where races so dissimilar dwell together on auch good terms. He has himself pointed out upon former GXAJWSXtSQ THB TRAVELER, , la Kf w fork Cfty women had quit thaaklng men who gave up their seats to cars tad, men had quit giving their seats op, Tho conditions oa frequent ly crowdsd lines became such that on tho rush-hour train through tho Jer sey tunnel system a special car for women was placed not long ago. This car appeared to fill a genuine long-felt want, and from Its first day it gave great satisfaction. The plan, involv ing, as It does, complete separation between men and women, would have Its drawbacks. for steam railway trains with their longer journeys, but even for them it would not be altogether In feasible. While men must keep out of the women's car, women are not so restricted and fan ride in other oars if they will. Of even mbre interest to travelers Is a recent decision in which the New Yorg State Court of Appeals holds that seats cannot be reserved by the simple process of placing baggage upon them, tho baggage's owner per haps spending all his subsequent time In the smoker ahead. In the particu lar case two men, one of whom was occupying two entire seats with him self and his baggage, had a hand-to- hand fight The seat hog held his ground, but the Invader succeeded In throwing some baggage through a window by way of vent for his feel mgs. previously the conductor, in voked as referee, had refused to de cide. The hog sued the railroad for low of baggage and for mental an guish. He met with very little sym pathy from the courts, which an nounced the princfplo that seats are for passengers, not for baggage .. . i . i . . "u y one traveling with num erous impedimenta should remember the baggage car ahead. me world moves and progress In made. Even after travel by airships has become general the beneficial ef feet of this Innovation and this de clslon may well make Itself felt. BEJECT MIKEB'S DEMANDS CONFERENCE COMES TO CZOSE.
