Private Cars.

In the town of Bahia, on the east coast of Africa, the private car question has been settled to the satisfaction of every white resident by providing a private street car for each of them. The cars are pushed by A native black and are small. They are fitted with a wide seat which will hold two persons. The tracks of this private road lead through,the main streets of the town, with switches to the stores and clubs. Each owner of a car has a switch to his yard and boards his car in the same manner as an automobilist. - . The roq.d is financied by each car owner, who pays a certain sum each year for upkeep. The road is used for no other pftirpose than to carry the owners on their outing or calling expeditions.—Wall Street Journal.
