The Humanitarian.


The rate at which diseases of the nery-
GUS system prove fatal to the population
of this country is a steady one, and sub
ject to definite law, to- which there are
not any or only apparent exceptions. This
rate does not appear to vary perceptibly
from time to time, and amounts to about
II per cent. of the entire mortality from
all causes.
Diseases of the nervous system occupy
the fourth rank among the maladies de-
stfuctive of human life, being only sur
passed in fatality by zynIotic, tubercular
and respiratory diseases.
Nervous diseases are not. as Isl common
ly asserted, more frequent, but on the
contrary, less numerous in large towns
than in the country, and it is probable
that their occurrence is powerfully in
f1uenced by race.
Sex has a considerable influence on the
productions of nervous diseases; for, al
though in this country the population of
females exceeds That of males. the deaths
Of males from nervous affections pre-
pcnderate constantly over those of fe-
males the male death rate being 1894 and
the female 1872 per cent.
Age has even a more powerful influence
on the production of nervous diseases
than sex; for these malalies attain an
immense maximum in the first year of life.

imum amounts to only about the tenth
part of the first maximum attained dur
ing infant life.

Origin of the Report Regarding
Capture of Americans.
SAN FRANCISCO, March 2.-The sequel to
the reported seizure of American officers of
the United States gunboat Concord is brought
to this city by the steamer City of Picking.
The Concord arrived at Chin Kiang on Feb.
8 or 4. On the following day three officers
of the ship, lieutenant and two ensigns
and two sailors went ashore in the war
ships launch. The officers went cunning
along the coast. leaving the launch in
charge of the seamen BY accident one of
the ens:gns wounded Chinese lad in the
leg with charge of bird shot. The natives
became greatly excited, and demanded the
rendered to the authorities. but sent the
launch back to the ship with Instructions to
the commanding officer to come to their aid
in case any trouble should occur. When the
launch brought the story to the Concord the
news go. about among the shipping men in
the harbor. The freight vessel TIA Tung, of the
China Merchant Company, was just about
boarded by several Americans. who handed
her commander a dispatch with the request
to send Ii to the American newspapers. The
dispatch was the sensational cablegram re-
ceived here some weeks ago. A launch filed
with armed men was sent ashore after the
officers. with instructions to afford protec-
ton to the prisoners. BY the time the boat
had reached the landing the affair had been
satisfactorily explained and the prisoners
were allowed to go back to their ship. No

The Fear of Our Neishbor..

The hardest housekeeping in the world
is the housekeeping people do for the bene-
fit of their neighbors. Half the troubles
we have are caused by worry as TO what
people think. What difference does it
make what they think, after all? No one
can live his own life and two or three
other peoples lives at the same time
What's the use of setting up housekeep-
ing on the roof for the benefit of the neigh
bors? One would rightly be judged in
sane for suggesting anything of the kind.
housekeepers do. They can't do this be-
cause the neighbors would talk, and they
can't do that because the neighbors would
wonder if they could not afford to do some
thing else. They. must not say it in SO
many words, but they mean it. The truth
of the matter is, there is simply a great.
big vacuum in some of our natures where
moral courage ought to be- Half the
sting of poverty or small means will dis
appear as soon as we have the courage
and good sense to keep house for our
selves and not for our neig hbors.

MRS. KENDAL's BOSTON SPEECH.
She Insisted on knowing what the
Audience Thought of the Play.

Boston nome JouTildi set
One young man had a. good chance to
show what he was made of when Mr.. and
Mrs kendall produced his play in Boston
last week. And Mrs Kendall showed her
interest in the subject of the advancement
of the young man by making the queerest
speech / ever heard from the stage Being
the close of the engagement. applause was
generous and speech was demanded.
Mrs. Kendall was the spokeSwonnan, so to
speak. She advanced to the footlights
after the unsuccessful play and asked the
audience how they liked it. She declared
that she did not want perfunctory APP
plause, but wanted 1t to- come from the
heart. A very little came Then she went
on to say that the play was written by
was his first play; hts very first play. He
was waiting in London to hear how we
liked it, and she wanted TO cable him what
we thought. She might have understood
by the scarcity of applause at this point
that we did not like 1t at all, but she was
not satisfied and continued her pleading
by repeating, TELL me, tell me honestly,
that you think 1t good" Whereupon
some accommodating people, who are prob
ably used to being wheedled by an auc-
tioneer-who was strongly suggested by the
speech-shouted .feebly, Good But a
more honest opinion came directly after
from a Disguised critic who took Mrs.
Kendall at her word, and in reply shouted.
