Further Improvement Noticed I'm the
Death Rate.
The health of the city underwent further
improvement, as shown by the health de-
partment reports last week. The decline in
mortality was equal to about IL per cent.
This occurred In the face of the great hot
wave which swept over the northern con-
tinent. There was a corresponding decrease
in the number Of deaths among children
under five years old, as well among the
aged. Although the colored population Is
but one-half that of the white. yet the
deaths AMONG that race outnumbered the
to the large infant mortality and may be
exceptional. With the exception of whoop-
ing cough there seems to be no serious
prevalence of contagious diseases. The gen.
eral health of the city remains IN excellent
state, with no sign nor threat of approach
ing epidemic. In detail the report shows:

40. Death rate per 1903 per annum: White,
