The capture Of Kilrain relieves the Mississippi
authorities Of an appearance Of inconsistency in
their pursuit of the prize-fghters. Governor
Lowry and the Mississippi authorities generally
deserve credit for the energy they have shown
They have won a good mark, not only for their
State but for the whole South.

Father Damien, who became leper that he
might minister 10 that afflicted class, and finally
died a leper's death, has received honors accorded
IN few men. That his sef-sacrifce is not an
isolated case is shown by the report just received
from China regarding the extraordinary career OF
an American missionary. The natives calied MN 'ie
" Christian Buddha," but his llie-work CLOSELY
resembles that OF the Galiean peasant who Went
about doing good Mr.. Crossett adapted himself

the Chinese, wearing their dress par'a"ins u
their food, and visiting them when SICK anu Ii

The semi annual meeting of the Executive
Committee of the Republican National League
was brought to successful close yesterday at
Saratoga. Much thought has been devoted to
the preparations for the next League Conven-
tion, which is to take place at Nashville or
Chattanooga, Tenn, on March 4, 1890. Tn
der the new system Of representation adopted
Oh Tuesday the convention will contain about
/ 900 delegates, and it is proposed to make
an impressive demonstration in the South in
behalf of Republican principles. The ideas
which the members of the committee have in
mind strike us as excellent, and, if rightly
carried out, the result cannot fail to be greatly
helpful to the party. The committee has
wisely resolved TO contribute all the assistance
it can to the Republican cause in the new
States at the coming elections

Detective Sergeant Reilly appears TO have
had a very good time during his journey to
and from South America and his stay there.
and he tells very plausible story in regard
TO the escape of the prisoner, Bushnell, whom
he succeeded in arresting and taking on ship
board. However, we are convinced that the
matter will bear little further probing and
We trust that the Police Commissioners will
not be in hurry to accept Reilly's report as
a complete and satisfactory statement of the
case. There are a number Of mysterious feat
ures about the matter For instance, we should
like TO know who is out Of pocket for the very
considerable expenses which Reilly must have
incurred during his long absence. The de-
tective who detects is certainly worthy of
praise. but it is also necessary TO hold on to

10 ne Medical Profession
The various medical associations and
the medical profession will be glad to
learn that Dr., Johns, Billings, Surgeon
U, S. Army, has consented to take charge
OF the Report on the Mortality and Vital
Statistics Of the United States ss re-
turned 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 RsCertaining the actual
movement Of population, our census
affords the only opportunity OF obtain
ingnear IN approximate estimate OF the
birth and death rates OF much the larger
part OF tho country, which Is entirely
unprovided with any satisfactory system
ofState and municipal registration.
In view Of this, the Census Officer,
during the month OF May this year, will
Issue to the medical profession through.
out the country "Physician's Registers"
for the purpose OF obtaining more accu'
rate returns Of death than It is possible
for the enumerNtorst to make. It's earn
estly hoped that physicians in every part
of the country will cooperate with the
Census Office in this important work,
The record should be kept from June !,
1880, to May 81, 1900, Nearly 10000 OF
these registration books were filled up
and returned to the office in 1880, and
nearly MI Of them used for statistical
PURPOSES, It is hoped that double this
number will DO obtained for the EleV'
enth Census,
Physicians not receiving Registers can
obtain them by sending their names and
addresses to the Census Office, and, with
tho Register, an official envelope which
requires no stamp will DO provided for
their return to Washington.
II all medical and surgical practition.
ers throughout the country will lend
their aid, the mortality and vital stats.
tics OF the Eleventh Census will be more
comprehensive and complete than they
have ever been. Every physician should
take q personal pride in having this re-
port as full and accurate as 1t is possible
to make 1t.
