This Medical Profession Requested to
kurnish Vital statist CO.

The RECORD has received the following
with request to pIblish:
DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR,
CENSUS 0FFIG,
WASHINGTON, d. C., May l. 1889.
To the Medical Profession: The vari-
GUS medical associations and the medical
profession will be glad to learn that DR..
John s. Billings, Surgeon U. s. Army,
has consented to take charge of the Re.
port on the Mortality and Vital Stats
tics of the United States as returned by
the Eleventh Census.
As the United States has no system Of
registration of vital statistics, such as is
relied upon by other civilized nations for
the purpose of ascertaining the actual
movement of population, our census at.
fords the only opportunity of obtaining
near an approximate estimate of the birth
and death rate, Of much the larger part
of the country, which is entirely unpro.
vided with any satisfactory system Of
State and municipal registration.
In view of this, the Census Office. dur.
ing the month Of May this year, will is
sue to the medical profession throughout
the country "physician's Registers" for
the purpose Of obtaining moro accurate
returns of deaths than it is possible for
the enumerators to make. 1t is earnest.
ly hoped that physicians in every part
Of the country will cooperate with the
Census Office in this important work
The record should be kept June l, 1885,
to May 81, 1890. Nearly 26, 600 Of thes'
registration books were filed up ant
returned to the office in 1880. anc
nearly all of them used for sta,i,tica
purposes. 1t is hoped that double th
number will be obtained for the Eleventh
Census.
Physicians not receiving Registers csI
obtain them by sending their names ant
addresses to the Census Office, and
with the Register, an official envelop
which requires no stamp will be provide
for their return to Washington.
II all medical and surgical practitioner
: throughout the country will lend thei
aid, the mortality and vital statistics {
the Eleventh Census will be more con
prehensive and complete than the
have ever been. Every physician shout
take personal pride in having this r
port as full and accurate as it is possib
to make it.
Il 1t is hereby promised that all inform
tion obtained through this source shall
held strictly confidential.
II ROBERT g. PORTER,
II Superintendent Of Census.

Boom the celebration on the d

pAHRANAaAr VALLEY, June IL, 1889.
Mr.. Editer: The dogs dead-In other
words, me and dads busted for hui
twelve months, so you'll have no dicker
with as this year, but as you may think
I've been giving you taffy all this time,
III have to let you know the ms and
outs Of our last troubles. Dad had a
cool hundred dollars laid away in one Of
mothers old stockings, which dad said
should have been invested for me in
your fern; but we had fortune teller
and her man come along and when they
left the hundred left too. Anyway We
all had to have our fortunes told, in.
Guiding sister Sue and the twins.
Sue would come across nobleman
and he'd take her to his moated grange
in old England. .54.
Mary Jane had to marry great Su.
perintendent, not sixty miles away. As
for Sopronie she'd be the third beloved
wife of Mormon Bishop and would
have lots of children and chickens to
hatch. But all this is neither here nor
there about the lost money that was
gobbled by the fortune teller un-beknown
to any of us for hui week. II.
1t appears she'd told dad that the first
night she slept in our house, she dreamed
that there was lot of silver bricks bur.
led on our ranch, and she could find 'em
for him, (as her dreams always came
true, but to make things all right with
the spirits, dad would have to put up a
hundred dollars to help out an incanta.
ton she'd have to make. So without
more ado, dad bundled up, Mrs. fortune
teller agoing through her little old racket
telling dad afterwards to 20 and bury the
stocking of money somewhere, but thai
he must not unite it, or she couldn't
find the silver for him, but that wher

The Daily bulletin., 1889-10-29

Mr. Macde read the report OF the
committee on labor. 1t spoke Of
sugar as the basis Of all the king
dom'e prosperity, and the success
of that industry depending more on
the cost and quality of the available
labor supply than on any other
factor. The large projected planta-
ton on Kauai and other new ones,
the extensions of existing planta.
tions, and liberal outlays on roads,
railways and irrigation works, all
made an increased demand for la
Dor. This with the total exclusion
of Chinese has produced such a
condition as that the introduction Of
5000 japanese has failed to supply
the demand for plantation labor.
Unless large additional supplies are
forthcoming from abroad, planters
will soon find themselves ia n seri,
Gus dilemma. "Wilh an insufficient
labor supply higher rates OF wages
must prevail and expenses viii be
enormously increased. High wagel
will tend TO aggravale the difficulty

By reason Of failure to make railroad
connection one of the principals dld
not arrive at the place selected Tor the
battle, and his second brought the news
of his detention to the others, VINO
were impatient for the slaughter to be-
gin. When the other principal heard
of the delay that was to debar him from
the privilege of shooting at his enemy
he promptly sent word that the code
made provision for such emergencies.
That when either of the principals
failed to appear at the time and place
set for the duel his second must answer
to the demand of the other side. But
the second in this case did not take
kindly to this, and said that it would
be impossible for him to fight as he was
not naturalized. That duel was de-
clared off, and champagne supper re-
stored good feeling all around.
In the days when it was the proper
thing to lock the duelists in darkened
room and arm them with pistols there
were good stories told. One of them
has been preserved. A German and a
Frenchman were the fighters. They
were locked in room which was so
dark that they could not see each other.
The Frenchman described what trans
pired in his own peculiar style: Il
know eff l shoot my pistol re Dutchman
see by re fash and shoot me. So say
to myself, l fire re chimney, and zis
will scare &c Dutchman so he shoot his
pistol, and zen l can kill him. l keep
