Thousands Starving to Death.

Americans can have little icea OF the
terrible suffering among the famine
stricken people Of india. An examin-
alton OF Central India shows that the
famine is prevailing in an area larger
than has been effected in Il century,
and it is likely that mortality resulting
from the scarcity of food and the attend
ant diseases will exceed that OF any
previous famine within hundred
wears. The details OF the disaster are
horrible to contemplate. The
,emaciation OF some of the sufferers al
most passes belief. Instances are
numerous where adults weigh less than
Sc pounds and they have the appearance
.of'skin covered skeletons. A fresh food
supply in the rice districts is impossible
to be obtained until September, 10y
which time, unless aid is forthcomins
from some source, the deaths will reach
~ frigh;ful number. The famine belt is
1900 miles long and 400 miles wide, and
among the dense population there is
only a comparatively small percentage
that is not effected by the great
calamity.
