AN ACE THAT FEW REACH.
SaVdlnahianS Who Live to Be 100
Years Old.

Health Officer Brunner's Statistics
Show That Nearly 1oPer Cent. of the
People Who Died in Savannah Last
Year We're Over 7o-one Was over
1OO-Negroes Die Younger and Live
Longer Than whites-The Deaths at
Different Ages.
Health Officer Drummer includes some
very interesting vital statistics in his an
nual report for the last year. They fur
nish very strong contradiction to any
impression that may exist TO the effect
that Savannah is not a place where peo-
pie live to a good old age. The statistics
show that of the deaths occurring here
last year, 119, or nearly 10 per cent. Of
the whole, were persons of 20 years of
age and upwards Fifty-four were so
years and upwards, and several were
above 90. One was over 100 years of age.
The list is quite interesting the names
and ages OF the whole 1l9 decedents
being given. 1t shows that twenty
nine white males above the age of
20 died during 1898, nine of whom were
above 50 years of age. The oldest white
male decedent was Charles n. Johnson,
who died at the age of 49, The white
female decedents made much better
showing for longevity than the males.
There were thirty-fiye white female de-
cedents above the age of 20, eighteen of
whom were upwards of so years of age.
TIE OLDEST WHITE WOMAN.
The oldest was Mrs. Elizabeth Weagle,
who died at the age of SO. There were
twenty colored male decedents of 20
years and upwards, twelve being over
80 years of age and three above 90. The
Oldest was Frederick Jones, who died
at 50.
The greatest record for longevity was
made by the cclored females, of whom 80
died above the age of 20. OF this number
Is were upwards of so years of age and
were over 80. The oldest, Jane Curry,
died at 102, and the next oldest, Mintie
jackson, died at 80.
The following table gives the ages at
which death occurred and the number of
persons dying between each period:

ing caught playinga game of craps, aud
Dick Norwood got six months for simple

pointed constable to make an arrest, was

NOT ALTOGETHER A sINEoURE.
DR.. ]. H. Whites Work While at n am
burg. Germany.


DR.. J. H. White, who has recently re-
turned to Savannah as the representative
of the marine hospital service, is being
warmly welcomed by his friends here.
DIR, White left Savannah eleven months
ago to-day for Hamburg, Germany,
where he was stationed as the medical
representative of the United States for
that district during the cholera epidemic
in Europe. He found the position no sine
cure.
During his stay at Hamburg DR. White
inspected 27, 900 emigrants, 10000 passen-
gers and 1000 sailors crews of vessels
bound for America, besides inspecting the
cargoes of all vessels bound for America
Hamburg is the second largest shipping
port in the world and the business done
there is something immense. DIR. White
inspected seven vessels in one day bound
for American ports, and % in one week.
1t was of course impossible to be abso-
lutely certain of the condition of each
one Of the thousands of migrants and
passengers who shipped from Hamburg
to America All that the medical officer
could do was to prevent the sailing of pas
sengers from infected districts, or who
had lodged at infected boarding houses,
or who had in other ways exposed them
selves to the disease. He found it no
easy matter to combat the shipping peo-
pie, who have a big pull on
both sides of the water,
and he was not always successful in pre-
venting the entrance to America of ship
ments from infected districts, owing to
the political complications of the quarau-
tine service in this country DIR. White
says the German emigrants averaged
fairly well for cleanliness and general APP
pearance. Some Italian emigrants whom
he saw at Naples were just the opposite
The emigrants from Northern Italy, the
country of the Lombards, he says, are
superior in every way to those of Southern
Italy and very much resemble the Ger
mans in their appearance and habits.
DIR. White found it necessary to acquire
German during his stay in Hamburg, and
now speaks the language like a native.
His little children, the oldesbof which is
only years old, acquired the language
even moro rapidly than her father
did, and could speak freely in
German after few months
stay Even his little Agar
old could chatter away in Ger
man as lively as any of the rest. When
DR.. White landed in New York two
weeks ago he was so accustomed to
speaking in German that he addressed
those with whom he had to do business in
that language, much to their surprise
and to his own confusion.

NEW ORLEANS RACES.
Summary of the Five Events in the
Crescent City.

crescent CITY.
The New Orleans Jockey Club contin-
ues to give its patrons as good racing as
they can find on the swell eastern tracks
in summer; the only difference is they
do not give as much money to the winner.
The majority of the horses CHARTERED at
the track are high-class thoroughbreds,
and the Handicapped is one of the best in
the country. The result is great contests,
and nose finishes are common occurrences.
There was hot tip on Marie Lowell in
the fourth race yesterday, and she was
played three ways heavily, from early
morn till the race was of. In red-hot
finish, she was beat short nose, and the
pool room quit heavy loser on the place
and show odds But the Corbett upper
cut that hurt the pool room most was
Elmstone. In the last St. Louis race he
won; Thursday easily, and was the
favorite then. To-day, for some unknown
reason, he was 10 to l, and every body in
the room land there was big crowd)
was down on him heavily. Elmstone
won from flag to flag, and the pool room
made its heaviest losing. The Amer
lean Derby entries, with odds, are now
posted also on Brooklyn handicap and
Suburban races.

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE RACES.
1t is interesting to note the difference
in the death rate of the white and col
ored population during the different pc
RODS. The table showes a fearful NOR
tality among colored infants under
year of age, being 22S as against so of
white infants. The difference is not so
great during the remainder of childhood,
but it is difficult to understand the re-
markable disproportion in the death rate
during the prime of life.
The table shows that there were 112
deaths of negroes between the ages of 20
and 30, as against 40 of whites, and that
between the ages of 80 and 40 there were
IS deaths of negroes, as compared with 36
| of whites 1t must be considered also
that this death list is taken from popu-
lation where there are $4,000 whites, and
only $4,000 negroes.
CoLoRED PEOPLE LIVE LONGEST.
After the meridian of life is past the
conditions appear to be changed, and the
colored man to hold to life with greater
| tenaCity than his white neighbor After
the age of 80 the number of deaths among
whites slightly exceeds those among
negroes until 80 is reached. There were
| ten deaths of negroes over 80 years of age
/ as against one white, but this is evidently
/ because of the greater mum Der of negroes
who had reached that age.
There were SO deaths from violence
! during the year of which II were suicides,
! 4S deaths from accidental causes, 8 homi-
| cides and l legal hanging. OF the acct
| dental deaths ID We're from drowning, 10
! from railway accidents, from burns
and scalds, from internal injuries, 4
| from poisoning and from suffocation.
There were IA still births, 119 white
and % colored. There were 224 deaths
without an attending physician, of which
! 70 were white and POI colored. OF these
100 colored and whites were under 10
| years of age.
DR. Brunner's report throughout is an
/ arraignment of the colored population
! for their disregard of sanitary regula-
tions and the laws of health. The death
rate among the negroes was more than
| twice that among the whites. The num-
! Der of colored infants who died was
nearly three times as great as the number
! of white infants.
Two hundred and twenty-four men,
bers of the race were allowed to die with
| out medical attention, 110 of this number
| being children under 10 years of age.
