Negro Mortality.
VII III.


The annual death rate of the colored
people in the cities of this country, and
especially in Southern cities, has been
much larger than the death rates of the
whites, the ratio i'll Washington for
several years having been nearly , to J..
But reports from Savannah, published by
the New Orleans Times Democrat, indi-
cate that the colored death rate in that
city has been alarmingly large, and far
greater than any rate heretofore noted
there in the absence of an epidemic
While the rate for the white people is
said to have been only 1919, that
for the colored people is said to have
been only 1924, and the rate for color
ed childred under years is reported to
have been 6O1.93 per 1000. This seems
incredible. If, however, the figures are
correct, the white residents of Savannah
have not done their duty by their black
fellow citizens. Such an enormous NOR
tality must be the result of neglect, want
of medical attendance, lack of food and
care and a total failure on the part of the
city authorities to enforce ordinary sani-
tary regulations

THE New York Tribune perpetrates
the following: Just as the people of

their ice palace, a wicked aud envious
Minneapolis paper started the story
that IL was being eaten up by the ice
bug. 1t is almost needless To say that
the news was received in st. Paul
with the greatest CONSERVATION. The
oldest inhabitant and the man who
built the first dug-out in st. Paul were
consulted. The Old Liars Association,
the Anti-Tenderfoo Society the Grand
Circle of Reformed Galoots and other
learned associations were hurriedly
summoned together, and an able-bod-
led committee was chosen to commun-
icate with the Royal Association of
European Big Guns on this monoton-
Gus subject. In the meanwhile the
city IS strictly quarantined against
Minneapolis reporters, and the citi-
zens are providing themselves with

really damaging the ice palace is the

SENATOR VEST evidently views tn,
Dakota question from an extreme
southern standpoint; but although hi
powers OF argument are great, he can
hardly persuade anyone that Dakota
should be divided from north to south
and that the eastern half should be
admitted while the western part is re-
tanned "a territory. This gives the
state all the population, to speak gen.
orally, and all the good lands. with
the exception Of the Black Hills,
while the territory has nothing that
will ever warrant it in becoming q
state. The division which the inhab.
itants want is the only one which
should be considered IL there must be
division, and that is certainly not
north and south as advocated by Sen
ator Vest.

Some months ago it was stated that a
plan of electric signaling from balloons
was invented by Mr.. Eric $. Bruce, hav-
ing special advantages for army purposes.
1t will. then. be enough now to say that
balloons after having been permitted to
ascend suitable distance are caused to
be lighted by means Of electric lamps,
supplied with current from wires COM
municating with an electrical generator
on the ground, for long and short mver-
walls, so as to spell out words in Morse
alphabet manner.
The essential nature Of Mr.. Bruce's in
vention being thus mentioned details may
easily be recalled to mind. This method
of signaling was tried q short time ago
by the British military authorities at
Chatham. and il appears that it has given
entire satisfaction. The light thrown
down by an Illuminated balloon was so
brilliant and diffused over so wide an
arena when the balloon was at a con-
siderable height that some one suggested
that such light might well be made use
of for conducting certain military opera
tons at night.-New York Times.
