MoRTuARY STATISTICS.


ssThe compilation of the mortuary re-
turns was added TO the duties of the Health
officer during the early part of 1892. Since
that time have issued weekly statistical
reports. which have been published in the
papers of the city. These reports have
been regularly mailed to most OF the
cities, towns and newspapers OF Georgia,
and distributed generally over the States.
Il feel convinced that the general and
regular circulation of these official reports
have resulted benefcially in curbing
malicious and false rumOrS preJudlcIal to
the health of this city.
''The appended mortuary statement
shows that during the year 1882 there have
been 375 deaths from disease, and IS from
violence and accidents, out of pOpula-
ton of 20,514 whites. This gives an an
nual ratio per 1000 of population whites J
1872, if the accidental and violent deaths
are omitted from the calculation; if these
are added, the ratio would be 1872. Deaths
from murder, drowning, railroad acct
dents. etc, having no bearing upon the
health communities, / have not incOrpOra-
ted them with deaths from disease, but have
accounted for same in a separate table,
where / believe they belong. The death
rate. as stated above, is exceedingly low.
and regardless of sectional location. I'M
questiOnably places Savannah in the front
rank OF health IOr the past year, IL tue
deaths of her white population are CON-
pared with that of the same race in other
cities of the United States.
THE death of the blacks and cOlOTed
for the year has been uncontrollably large.
Out of population of 1853, 40 have
died from disease. giving 1879 as the an
nual ratio per 1000. Since the enamel
patton of the negroes their death
rate in this city has been in
creased greatly, this being attribu-
table TO the fact that. incapacitated as
race to provide for and take care of them
selves, a very large proportion Of their
population must be denOminated as pau
pers. When in health they live from hand
to mouth, are scantily clothed. insufici-
emily fed and badly habitated; when taken
sick their vital powers are deficient.
They have no means with which to
procure the actual necessaries of
life, and in many instances they and
their associates are either too lazy or indif-
ferent to make application for medical
attendance or medicines, although fur
nished gratuitously by the city. During
the year 126 of this race have died under
these circumstances. The gross injustice
Of combining the deaths of this race with
that of the whites, and then producing
ratio per total population and publishing
il to the world as the health status Of this
city is too plainly evident to admit of dis
cussiOn. Still it is done yearly by CON-

The formation of what is known as a Ten
Pin Club is being successfully worked up
by a number of our society boys. The ide q
is taken from the organization of clubs OF
this description in the East and at the sea.
side resorts. 1t is the custom for the club
to be formed entirely of ladies and gentle
men, the rooms and expenses Of the club
TO be betrayed by monthly subscriptions
from among the gentlemen members. In
New York clubs of this description are
very popular, certain nights in the week
being devoted TO ladies and escorts entirely
leaving stag members the privilege OF set.
ting up the pins or acting spectators. The
other nights are devoted to those Of the
other sex and their visitors. and is used as
u place OF rendezvous by all members who
are not in a lalIygag mood. This is a new
and original idea and will most certainly
he contaminated, ss it is in the hands Of a
committee of gentlemen who always sue.
coed in whatever they undertake.
