These figures include deaths

bles, as there are in an equal pop

Some years ago Bishop Hugh
Miller Thompson, formerly Of
Wisconsin, made tho following
publication:
~ have received q number OF
letters of inquiry in which great
stress is laid on the health Of Mis-
sissippi. do not wonder at this
although there is ground for won-
der at the persistent ignorance Of
our great country concerning any
other part. Win you allow me TO
say, then, that by official figures,
Mississippi is just one third
healthier than New York and Mas
sachusetts, and twenty five per
cent healthier than Illinois or
Pennsylvania,
Its death rate is under thirteen
in n thousand. Considering that
half it's population are colored,
and that the colored death rate IS
half greater than tho white in all
the south, suppose the ordinary
white death rate in Mississippi is
not above ten in a thousand, a
little more than one-third the
death rate in New York City.
"My own experience and that
of men who have come from the
north to Mississippi, is that it is
a rarely healthy climate and
country, and that for delicate
people, delicate in lungs or throat,
with catarrhal or bronchial trou-
! bles, il is home Of health and
comfort. AS to malaria, that is
more to be dreaded in a week on

indeed the star turn Of the whole
layout-was the famous gun net, in which
I let any person in the audience shoot at

TROUT COOKED BY A CHEF.
Two Flsherme Who Made . STAR
Ting Discovery.

Two Flshe rmen who Made . Star
Ting Discovery.
A writer in Forest and Stream tells
how he went trout fishing years ago in
California and there made pleasant
discovery. After seeking long for trout
streams he and his companion came upon
q lone shanty, where Frenchman was
swinging in a hammock and smoking his
pipe. lie was q very much surprised
man, for, as he told them, no one had in
truded on his solitude for three months.
"Plenty of fish" he promised them,
and they betook themselves to the creek.
There they soon filled their baskets and
then, having dressed as many as two
hungry men could eat, adjourned to the
shanty.
On inquiring of our landlord if he had
such thing as frying pan he produced
one, and my friend, who prided himself
ON being camp expert, remarked: "Of
course this tramp doesn't know how to
cook trout. I'll show him."
The tramp looked on, smoking his pipe,
but being rather the worse for our days
travel it was suggested that before eat
ing we should have bath, SO, adjourn
Ing to the creek, we took refreshing
dip. When we returned to the house, we
were surprised at seeing little rude ia

casters, china plates, a white cloth and
napkins. Where they all came from was
a mystery, but they were there.
snow for the trout" said my friend.
"I'll show you how trout should be
cooked"
But then appeared our landlord, bear
ing a platter filled with nicely Drowned
fish. 1t was followed by small cups of
delicious black coffee. Then we rolled
up in our blankets and slept as only tired
hunters and fishermen can do. Our
breakfast was the supper repeated, with
an addition Of fine white rolls.
We lost no time in refilling our baskets
and prepared to depart. Our landlord
would accept no pay, only few flies and
a line and pocketbook. Then one Of
us said, with some patronage and de-
sire to please:
my friend, there is the making Of a
good cook in you. Why don't you go to
San Francisco and hire out? No doubt
you could get good situation"
There was a twinkle in the French
mans eye as he replied carelcssly:
