These are round numbers. but they are nc

persons died OF that unprecedented plague

lions OF lives were taken.
Yet the story Is only partly told. Tho

We guess that such an institution as the
"Galilee Teetotum Workingmen's Club"
which has been set up here by an esteemed
clergyman. will never be attractive to Ameri-
can workingmen. We do not think they can
ever be brought TO like those exemplary and
charitable clubs which are got up for their
special benefit. They are rather independent
in their ways: they do not want to be coddStd: /:
they do not take to goody- goodness: they do

the movements OF the body. 1t is very SEN

Humanity's Greatest Disaster.

Is 1t true that the greatest calamity that
4 ever befell the human race. tho deluge not
J excepted was heralded as joke on human
: fly. was met with laughter. was suffered
with grins. and was made the subject Of jest
F.; by nearly a.! the world while it WAS doing a
deadly work for which the history OF the
earth furnishes no parallel?
The New York State ISoard OF Health has
made an attempt to estimate the number
OF deaths caused 10y the disease commonly
known as the grip. within tho field OF its
observation. In communication sent to
the Legislature that Board says: AT a
low estimate it the gripl has caused
1000 deaths in .his State since its first
appearance. and probably over 100000 in
the entire country" These figures afford
abasis for roughly estimating the mortality
throughout the earth from this cause. and
for comparing 1t with that OF some Of the
great plaques Of history.
1t should be remcru bcred that no plague
sent upon the earth previous to the coming
of The grip made all the inhabited world the
field Of its ravaGes. Early in the seven
teenth century fearful malady is said to
have carried of 900 victims in and near
Constantinople. buo 1t ragged only in COM
paratiyeiy small area in the East. A few
years later a plague that was hardly felt
beyond tho boundaries of italy originated
in Naples. and iD credited with having
caused scIae 400. COO deaths. III London be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000 persons are said to
have diad In 1864 but this awful death rate
was confined 20 mere point on the earths
surface. 1t Ia recorded that 800 900 persons
cicd IN Egypt In the course OF plague
which visited tnat country century ago.
Unlike any of these "isitatiOns. the grip
visited nearly every inhabited part Of tho
globe. :. VAC frat heard OF in the cold eli
mate OF Russia. 1t afterward prostrated
caravans on the hot sand Of the great des-
ert In Africa. II the western hemisphere

served tho Indians OF Alaska as badly as it
served the Crackers Of Florida. To say
that 1t swept over the entire earth Is. with
few unimportant exceptions, to speak no
more than the truth.
1t is safe 20 say that the death rate
throughout tho earth from the grip was as
high as it was Ia the temperate climate Of
the United Staten. Probably the average
for the entire earth was considerably higher.
Throughout the greater part Of the United
States. and CT Europe as well. medical at

refuses to allow Col. Por SANS to give up

We take 1t that Governor JAY NoRTHEN

that Col. PoT SANS Is bound by the soem-
mites OF law and official duty to continue to
supervise the few piles OF dornicks that
constitute tho geological collections OF the

utility. and put themselves under the
domination OF sensible JUDGMENT Instead
OF their instinct ofprovoking admir- alton.
In all times flowing draperies have been
associated with womanhood, not because
OF their convenience. for they must DO In
convenient, but because OF their grace and
artistic effect. They have indicated that
women were apart from the rough-and-
tumble work Of the world. and needed the
protection OF men In the separation. They
have suggested that the place for
women was In the secluslon OF the
home rather than the competition OF OUT
side activities. In these modern days.
cay the dress reformers. the situation Of
women has changed so radically that this
costume must be changed correspondingly
to enable them to adjust themselves to
their present necessities. The current
dress. they argue. assumes the existence Of
social conditions which have passed away;
for women are no longer confined to indoor
activities in our modern civilization. They
are working side by side with men In all the
Rainful occupations which do not demand
nero rude physical strength. and capacity
to stand the severest exposure; and to be
successful they must dress consistently
with the requirements OF the new compe-
tition. even II they subordinate beauty to
utility. They must discard fashions which
imply their unfitness for the contest.
Undoubtedly there Is very much in this
argument. The traditional feminine dress
IL typical OF feminine dependence and illus
trative Of the feminine love OF admiration.
H. then. women are to become independent
and to win the admiration OF men simply
as competitors with them in the business
OF society. 1t Is wholly unsuitable and
inconGruous costume. 1t may have
served the old ends. but it tends
to defeat efforts to attain the now.
The general adoption Of the reformed dress
recommended by the National Council OF
Women would be practical announcement
by women that In aim and impulse they
have become thus transformed. The conse-
quent social revolution would reach from
the top to the bottom OF humanity. for OF
course the new fashion would not receive
feminine approval until it was accepted In
the luxurious circles Of society.
When Queen VICTORIA. the Princess OF
WALES. and the leaders OF the fashion in
New York discard long and flowing drape-
ries. and appear In tunics reaching only q
few inches below their knees. one of the
greatest social revolutions of history will
be fully under way.
