Saving Lives at Sea.

When the weary crew of storm-tossed
vessel has grown sick and respondent in an
uneven hand-to-hand battle with the angry
pillows, the ship is strained in every timber,
the passengers are in panic Of frantic
alarm, and the care-wor officers in gloomy
despair are about to abandon further strug-
giles, what gloriously revivifying effect it
must have upon their jaded spirits to see a
bright rocket signal shoot forth from the
shore to convey TO them the assurance that
a hardy crew Of life-savers is pulling
rapidly to their relief. Many professional
as well as amateur) mariner can never for
get the sensation so long as life may last.
They can fully appreciate the noble work
of the United States lifs-saving service. 1t
is indeed a grand institution, and worthy
Of more general appreciation than it gets.
According to a report recently issued by
the treasury department, of which this hon
orable organization is an adjunct, the SER
vice has made record of unosten-
tatiously substantial usefulness that is
not surpassed in actual tangible re-
suits by any other department Of
the government of even approximately like
functions and facilities. During the year
1889 nearly $500 lives and property valued
at about s., $780, 900 we're saved. During the
twenty years Of the existence of the service
$4,000 lives aud property to the aggregate
value of $66, 900 were rescued from the
waves. Only think Of iti People enough
to make a goodly city and property enough
to establish state prevented from perish
ingl Isn't that a noble institution Yet
the cost of maintaining this valuable STAN
cEion of the merchant marine last year was
less than 81 100000.
With all of its effective good work to
commend it to favor, however, the service
has always been stinted in appropriations
and cramped and somewhat handicapped
for lack of adequate funds to provide es-
sential supplies That is not at all credit
able to the country. Be'ides, the men are
by no means paid what their work is really
worth. That is unjust. Congress should
remedy these shortcomings without delay
Men who are constantly engaged in saving
the lives of others at the peril of their owr
should certainly be justly and literally, il
not generously, dealt with. They deserve it

Among the native born of native-born
parents, the death-rate was 9. Is, and among
the foreign-born 7.6l. Between the ages of
rs and As the death rate among single males
is decidedly greater than among married
males. For females between the ages of IS
and 35 the death rates are for the single 2 4S
and married Ass, indicating the increased
dangers due TO conception and partu-
rition; but among females over IS years of
age the death rate is greater among the
single than it is among the married.
Among females the average death rate is
greater GIG than among males GAO; but
this excess Of deaths amoag females occurs
after Is years Of age, the rates under Is be-
ing for males 1884, and for females 9.15.
Among males the general death rate is
greater among those whose mothers were
born in the United States and least among
those whose mothers were natives of Russia
or Poland. When, however, the death rates
of the living male population between Is
and As years of age are compared, it is
found that the average death rate was 3. 10,
while for those whose mothers were born in
the United States it was l. 9s, for those whose
mothers were born in Germany 2.S6, for
those whose mothers were born in Russia
and Poland 1.59, and for those whose moth
ers were born in England and Wales $50.
If the data as to births and deaths re :
ported for the Jews in the United States
were correct, they would indicate that the
birth rate among them is decreasing and
the death rate increasing with prolonged
residence in this country.
But even from the tables given in the
bulletin, from which the foregoing facts are
taken, it is evident that the Jews in the

more than q league In diameter, and
elevated in some places by such high
cliffs as TO be seen more than twelve
leagues of. ;" Father Marquette was
doubtless the first white man To visit it,
or at least TO dwell upon it. He estab-
lished school on the island in f671 for
tho education OF the Indian youths, and
so much was he attached to "the Straits"
that when he died In 1915 1t was at his
request his Indian converts brought his
body back to the little mission estab-
lished by him at st. Ignace The first
vessel ever seen on these waters was
the Griffin, built by the explorer La
Sale on Lake Erie in 1878.

Sounds Fishy,

A few days ago a gentleman visited
a large foundry in Chicago, and noticed
a number of Polish girls lifting chunks
of resin from one barrel to another.
what is the object of that?" he asked
the superintendent; at seems to me
you might transfer that resin much
more quickly" "Oh, that's all right, :"
he answered; eve have them do this
work for awhile to harden their hands
before they undertake to handle rough
and heavy iron castings. The girls
themselves never suspect that the
work they are doing is not needed.
They are working here now in good
faith, as you see, and not one of them
is quick-witted enough to suggest that
there is better way to transfer sew
eral barrels of resin across this room
than to carry the resin across piece by
piece in their hands. If we really
wanted the resin transferred, 1t would
not take one man five minutes TO roll
every barrel into place. "-ArOonaut.

Clipping Dogs Ears.

The work of clipping the ears of
bulldogs and'other CANNES was dis
cussed in the police court the other
morning when Frank W. Moulton, a
fancier, was called upon to answer q
charge Of cruelty to animals preferred
against him by Agent Key, of the HUI
name Society, says the Washington
Star. The alleged cruelty consisted
in clipping the ears of the dogs.
Mr.. Moulton told how the dogs we're
etherized before the operation is per-
formed in order to prevent pain or
cruelty. ut has been the universal
CUSTOM" he said, ito clip their ears. 4"
"And it used to be the custom for
men to bore holes through their noses"
added the Judge. "but civilization is
ahead of that"
Judge Miller wanted to know If there
were any decisions on the question, and
counsel said he thought there were
none.
Mr.. Moulton said that since the war
rant was issued he had written to the
Secretary Of the New York Kennel
Club, and his reply was that no such
case had been prosecuted before and he
considered it perfectly nonsensical
The Judge thought that the dog was
entitled to his ears and tail and said
that the public was interested in the
dog untrimmed and unadorned. As
the question was one of considerable
importance, the Judge said, he would
take ii under advisement.
