me Art of Pro1onxins Life.

ITO die of. old age" is thesbiect Of am
bition to large numberiof persons, who
carefully nurse their health withithe view,
not efescapihg death altogether, for they
know thfs-to be-ifnpossible butNof seking
life out to its utmost limit The art of pro-
longing life in this fashion appears to be
less well understood now than formerly.
The Registrar-General, in his report for
1852, lately published, observes that the
deaths ascribed to old age have for many
years been diminishing in their proportion
to the population, and in 1882 were fewer
in proportion than in any former year
As old age is the natural termination of
life, and the silment of which all prefer
eventually to die, this aggregate falling-of
in the mortality from this cause, If real
would not be an indisputable advantage.
But doubtless much of the falling off under
this heading is merely due to gradual inn
pFovement in the specification of the causes
OF which the old die. This, however, does
not account for all the apparent decline in
the mortality. For there was in each of
the three years, 1880, 1881 and 1882, Il SEN
sible decline in the mortality of persons of
advanced age from all causes; and in 1882
especially the death rate of persons fifty
five years of age and upward, whether males
or females, was lower than it had been for
many years probably THANH it had ever been
before. The main factor that determines
the death rate of the aged is temperature
ofthe winter months and in 1882 the mean
temperature of each of the six months of
the first and fourth quarters was above the
average. In fact, the best advice that can
be given to old people anxious to linger on
in this planet is, Keep yourselves warm"

THE CAR DRIVERS CASE

Grover Cleveland, who stands at the head
of party protesting to regard with espe-
| cial interest the rights of the working man,
denied to the hard-worked car drivers OF
New York that protection they had a
| right to demand of and expect from the
State. They are forced TO work sixteen
! hours per day now. They ask that they be
driven by their task-masters but twelve
| hours, leaving them eight to rest and four
| for home and relaxation. 1t was reason
able request; one that the State should
have granted, not only in the interests of
the working class, but in the interest of the
public. One of these over-worked men
writes to New York paper in these words:
Working sixteen hours day, men are
able to make only five days in a week, or
$40, but working twelve hours a day at
81 so they could work seven days and earn
| $40 So and where would be our loss if he
had signed the bill? When Governor
| Cleveland is sleeping in the morning am
| at work. When he is attending to his
duties during the day am at work. When
he goes to a place of amusement in the
evening am at work, and when he retires
to rest at night 1 am still working. l have
a little girl five months old, and during my
working days l have never seen her smile,
never seen her dark blue eyes, and never
held her in my arms awake but twice and
yet this is a Christian land Governor
Clevelands veto has condemned us to life
in which there is no hope no joy, and no
chance of improvement"

position is already being debated at the
East. AS was forecast here, it is urged that
it has been demonstrated that men of the
temperate zone can live without discomfort
in the NEST northern ATTITUDES, and can
make long sledge journeys, if they are kept
supplied with fuel, clothing, food and
light shelter. The Greedy party had neither
sickness nor death until the food sup
ply ran out If there had been, chain
of permanent stations, the party would
have deemed their excursion no heavy
task 1t is shown that Arctic discovery is
not hereafter to be promoted by vague
voyages in ships, and at the mercy of polar
currents and ice drifts. All this is reasona'
BILE, and the new scheme is possible OF exc
cution But if new enterprises are deter
mined upon, they should be wholly at the
expense of private bounty, or by co-opera
ton of many Governments. The Govern
| ment of the United States should not agar
engage alone in any Arctic discovery
| or Arctic meteorological observation. 1t il
desirable that geographical knowledg
should be enlarged; but if it is to be don
by official action, the great nations of tn
earth should be conjeined in the scheme
The expense to each would thus be light

THE SANITARY AGITATION.

One of the speakers at the sanitary meet
ing of Wednesday struck the right chord
when he said that what is needed here is
continued agitation of the question of sani-
tary reform That has been the view of
the RECoRD-UNIoN ever since it began this
agitation year and more ago. Its advice
was to begin work then that everyone now
demands shall be done and has been too
long delayed. The speaker charged that
there is apathy among our people on the
subject not creditable to their intelligence
1t must be admitted that they are not so
quick to move in such matters as is desir-
able but we have faith that now having
entered upon the work, they will not cease
the effort to accomplish great results Who
ever has read the proceedings of the meet
ing must be convinced of the urgent need
for the application of immediate corrective
aad preventive measures. Suppose we for
tunately escape cholera and yellow fever this
year, it will not prove that the need for re-
form has diminished. The fear is that
when the summer is over the people will
become lethargic again upon this subject
The greatest efforts should be made to pre-
vent this How do we find ourselves now .?
With vast and imperative work to do and
no possibility of accomplishing it all this
season. One of the chief threats to the
public health, we are told, cannot be re-
moved under some months of hard labor,
and at great cost, and this is a confession
of woful neglect in the past 1t is perfect
ly evident that the cesspool system
must be abolished 1t was proven
at the meeting that the soil is
largely permeated by the faint of the cess
pools, and well-borers find evidence of il
constantly. This routs the theory that the
annual sipage rise purifes the soil. As one
of the Board of Health put it, the earth
is great deodorizer, and the best oxvdiz-
ing agent we have; but there comes a time
when it completes its Office. and can no
longer act, as is evidenced by experience
with burial places" That time has quite
arrived here, and we can no longer NEGLECT
the duty of commanding and enforcing a
cessation of the filth saturation system
Five years ago the REcoRD-UNIoN pointed
out these things, and warned the city of the
inevitable. There is a duty incumbent
upon this people now, the neglect of which
will just as certainly entail a punishment
OF the most terrible character, as that days
will dawn and nights close in. The agita-
zion now renewed must not be permitted to
die out for day. Mere captious objcctors,
cranks and fogies must stand aside, and the
demonstrations of science. sanitary discoy-
cry and experience be needed and acted
upon. There is nothing Of the alarmist
nature in all this. A revolution in the
sanitary affairs of this city must take place
and BEGIN at once

THERE is spreading story of wonderful
gold discoveries in the Andes. The exact
locality is not indicated, but some Ameri-
can miners have already set out for the re,
ported new Ell Dorado. The story grew
out of the sudden return to Deadwood Of
an old miner who had dropped out Of
memory for long time He brought
with him some remarkable gold specimens
declaring that he found them at point
eight days travel from the headwaters OF
the Amazon, and that he discovered phe
true fssure, which absolutely bewildered
him with its richness but before he could
begin work upon it he was driven away by
Indians, and he came back to organize a
band of skilled miners to return to the
spot. Five men Joined him and they re-
turned, and send reports of the most Won
derful discoveries. American miners have
had some severe lessons regarding "new
diggings," and there is not likely to be any
sudden rush to the Andes. Yet there are
many reasons for believing that South
American gold fields have not been hal
explored, or half discovered, and it may
remain for the Yankee nation to lay bare
the treasures of the continent.

When the REcoRD-UNIoN suggested the
other day that the Arctic fever would re-

and that probable plan would be the es.
tablishment of frequent stations, and to
stock and man them, and keep up con-
slant connection between given base of
supplies and the furthermost station, the
expression was purely speculative II
seemed that some such plan would be ad-
Tocated. 1t is now learned that such a pro-
