Secretary OF State Says They
Must File Certificates of Death.


Must File Certificates of Death.
Secretary of State Warner is
gratified by the promptness exhib-
tied by the township, city and vii
lage clerks in returning deaths to
the state department for the month
of August. The law requires these
returns to be smade on the fourth
day Of each month, and over 99.51
per cent Of the total population of
the state was promptly reported for.
last month. Most of the failures to
report came from sparsely settled
townships Of the upper peninsula
and northern part of the lower pen
insula. This is a record for prompt
ness that has never been surpassed
in any other state or country.
Complaints have been made by
United States census officers that
in some localities the registrars
have been negligent in requiring
undertakers to file certificates Of
death as required by law.
There were three cities in the
state Of over 5000 population, viz:
Alpena, Adrian and Manistee,
which the census authorities rejected
because of their incompleteness, be-
sides a number of smaller ones, as
Ypsilanti, Holland and Grand Haven,
which were likewise defective. 1t
is also known that undertakers in
country districts are not as careful
as they should be in complying with
the law. Undertakers who violate
the law will be prosecuted. The
penalty for interring body with
out the registrar permit is q fine
of not less that So and not more than
800.

A BRAVE POLICEMAN

New York is very proud of Mounted
Policeman William Cullen, who does
duty on the Coney Island driveway. He
has, during his four years of service
there. stopped over a hundred run
aways. displaying on several occasions
extraordinary skill and bravery. He
came to the police service from the
Fifth United States cavalry in which
he had served fifteen years, and he
brought a letter from his commander
Colonel Merritt, now General Merritt,
saying that he was the crack horseman
of the troop, one of the best revolver
shots in the army, and a thorough
gentleman. Policeman Cullen, a week
ago Saturday, gave chase to run
away, when the automobile races were
on, and, at the risk of his own life
caught the frightened animal by the
bride and guided it deftly through the
crowd, saving, no doubt, considerable
number of persons from serious in
jury. Those who saw the feat, are en-
thusiastic in the policeman's praise
and they have been writing letters to
the police authorities urging his pro-
motion.

KANSAS, GRAND HARVEST

Everybody knows that the past sea-
son was proud one for Kansas. 1t
probably is not understood, however,
just how great the States industrial
triumph was. The Secretary of the
State Agricultural department has just
issued report showing that the total
yield of wheat was 100000 bushels
with home value of s51 ,OO0,O 600 This
yield of wheat surpasses any other
harvest in the history of Kansas and
exceeds any single harvest of any other
state. There was an average of sixty
one bushels for every inhabitant of the
state. In spite of the great drought
the total value of the wheat and corn
crops was but eleven per cent below
that of last year. This years corn
crop was 100000 bushels having a
home value of about 500 100000 The
counties of Sumner and Barton pro-
duced last summer u, 100000 bushels of
wheat The Secretary points out that
taking into account the value of the
harvest and that there is already about
$50 per capita in the banks of the state,
no one need worry about Kansas
ability to get through the winter COM
fortably.

FRANCES Low BIRTH RATE

That France is still worrying about
her low birth rate is shown by debate
which took place in the Senate Friday
that resulted in the acceptance by NJ.
Waldeck-Rousseau the Premier of a
proposal for the nomination of an ex-
ira parliamentary commission, the duty
of which shall be to study means for
increasing the birth rate and diminish
ing mortality. A hundred and thirty
three senators signed their names to
the proposal. One senator, arguing in
favor of the inquiry, said that at the
beginning of the nineteenth century
France had 26OOO.OOO inhabitants, as
compared to Germany's 100000, and
England's 12,OO00OO Now France has
but 100000 inhabitants while Ger
many has 56,OOO,OOO and England
Al, 900 inhabitants.
There have been many theories adj
vanced in France to account for the
low birth rate, one of which is, that
the feeling that it is necessary to pro-
vide well for children has had strong
tendency to prevent marriage and has
discouraged the rearing of large fam
lilies. The French government has
from time to time taken cognizance of
the low birth rate and has adopted
measures intended to make marriage
both more attractive and possible for
a greater number It appears, how
ever. that what has been done has not
proved satisfactory and that the social
conditions responsible for the state OF
affairs are 50 complicated that they
cannot be easily remedied.

BARRED FROM THE CORONATION

6HRREO FROM ! he COhONR ! lON
No doubt there are several disap
pointed Americans in London who had
fon6ly hoped to attend the coronation
of King Edward by paying almost fab
ulous prices for seats that belong to
the peers. The King it appears, learn
ed that traffic in seats was going on
and therefore issued a decree that
aside from the foreigners who are en-
titled to be present at the coronation
in an official capacity, none but British
subjects shall be permitted to attend
1t is disagreeable to think that there
are Americans who would be willing to
pay a great deal TO go where they are
not wanted, though, to be sure, a cor
onation does not happen every day.
The English, however, cannot justly
say very much so long as it was the
willingness of some of the British peers
to sell their seats that made it appear
possible in the first place for foreign
ers to be present.
If Americans are disappointed so
doubtless are the peers who had hoped
to make handsomely by bargaining
away their privileges. 1t is reported
that those who have sold their seats
will be deprived of their right to at
tend as well as that those who bought
the tickets will be barred when they
present themselves. 1t is pointed out
that stories about coronets being pur-
chased at enormous prices for the cor
ronation are manifestly false because
the matter of costume is fixed The
rule is that peeresses shall wear coro-
nets of silver gilt without jewels or
precious stones.

DR.. MCCULLAH ON MANS
CONDITION AFTER DEATH

Rev DR.. Archibald McCullagh gave
the concluding address in series of
four at the mems meeting in Associa-
ton Hall, yesterday afternoon. His
subject was Mans Condition Inn
mediately After Death, or Human Life
in Heaven" Special music was fur
nished by a horn quartet from the
Bostonia Orchestra and there was the
usual congregational singing. The
audience was large when the weather
was considered.
Among other things DR.. McCullagh
said he believed man was self con-
scious after death, that memory Of
what has taken place here passes with
him into the future world and those
who have gone to a higher world are
still interested in the lives and actions
of their friends who are left behind.
DR.. McCullagh believes that angelic
ministry exists today in the Christian
life and that the sayings of Christ
relative to angels in Heaven and their
ministering holds good today as well as
ever. No one is justified in saying that
angelic ministrations have ceased.
People are apt to think that nothing
exists unless they can see it or reach
out with their hands and grasp it, but
some of the mightiest forces of the
universe are not to be perceived by
any OF the HNe SENSES. AS niue is
known of the power of gravitation as
when Sir Isaac Newton arrived at his
conclusion, and yet every one is will
ing to admit that such power exists
and that the planets are held in their
places and our feet remain firmly
planted upon the earth through its
agency. No man can see, feel taste or
smell this agency and yet it exists.
DIR. McCullagh believes that the same
conditions should apply equally to the
belief of Christians in the ministering
power Of angels, as taught by Jesus
Christ
Sunday the speaker will be e. S.
Miles of Hyde Park, n. Y, who will

it was highly successful. AS one New

that the annual event at Madison
Square Garden has become the mag
net that draws irresistibly the owners
OF fine horses from nearly all parts Of
the United States.
AS a social function the horse show
was quite equal IL not superior. TO all
that have preceded it. Wen known
social leaders of New York and several
other American cities were present.

Of the wearers. One must go far be-

New York can muster on great occas-
ions.

not been for the assurance that the
event would be repeated with UNI
