An interesting paper on the depopula-
tion OF France has been read at the
Academy of Medicine by Professor lie
Fort. He argued that the fears expressed
on this subject had been much exaggera-
ted. The statistics of births in France
were lower than those of any European
country; but, on the other hand, the
equilibrium was to some extent re -estab.
lished by the satisfactory state of the
death statistics.

The trusts In manufactured gas may
dispel their fear Of natural gas as COM
petitor, exclaims the Chicago Herald.
No one any longer believes that gee we!ls
are inexhaustiili1, and they are already
failing in regions where the flow has
been most abundant. Even Pittsburg,
whose awful smoke has been abolished
and whose coal bills have been reduced
to comparatively nothing by the use of
natural gas, is compelled to admit that
che must soon lose her inestimable ad-
vantages. The supply has fallen off en-
ormously. No attempt is now made by
the companies to furnish gas to the entire
city, and 500 furnaces were cut off some
time ago in order to enable them to con-
tinue the supply to other consumers in
greater need of it. One company alone
is sinking twenty new wells, but
usually when the flow begins to fall the
sinking of new wells but hastens its de.
cline, and relief from this source is
doubtful. The indications are that Pitts.
burg will be compelled to give up tho
Wonderful economies and convenience
which natural gas has conferred upol
her. AS the wells which supply tina
gNAity are the largest in the country tn
