TO the nature OF the warfare carried
on by the insurgents. who In the same

INDIAN GAII.ANTRY

In the assembling of Buffalo Bills army of Rough Riders, in the vast arena of the Wild West, the first to appear on the scene are a great num- Der of Sioux and Ogalalla Indians, 1n holiday paint and feathers. Band by band they gallop in, each following their chief. When they are all lined up in place queer little procession enters Indian squaws and children, some lads proud of their ability to ride small ponies alone, others papooses strapped to their mothers backs. Their horses go at a walk and the squaws sing a strange shrfll monotonous Indian song. The red warriors faces light up with smiles and their voices rise in a very din of sharp yelps. expressive of pleas, ure and greeting. It is a pretty bit of business and perfectly natural.

NEGROES DYING OUT IN CUBA

The negro question seems to be In fair way to settle itself in Cuba with out recourse to the aid of philanthrOpic societies or government regulations. Major Gorgas tells us in his report on the vital statistics of the city of Ha- yana and Guanabacoa that during the month of January in those cities the native whites showed an excess of lSS births over deaths, that is the, the fig ures were 457 and 269, whereas the na- tive negroes showed an excess of fifty eight deaths over births, that is to say the figures were 12S and 70. The fig ures for the year 1901 are even more significant. During the twelve months the native negroes lost 513, making 8 total gain for the natives of 1,227 in- habitantS. The deaths of foreigners brought the difference down to exact ly one, although it must be remembered that the number of foreigners dying indicates that the city is gaining rapid ly ln population by immigration. IT this keeps up for q reasonable length Of time there will soon be no negroes left in Cuba, and this, notwithstanding the fact that the difficulty of obtaining marriage licenses does not appear to have any deterrent effect upon the in- crease of the negro population, because or all births among negroes ffty-Seven were illegitimate and only thirteen were legitimate. The most fatal dis ease from which the negroes suffer is apparently pulmonary tuberculosis. The ordinary infections seem to attack them neither more nor less virulently than they attack the whites, and the difference in population is considerable. The baneful effects of civilization in decreasing the birth rate have not ap- appeared very notably in the negro elsewhere Negroes are apparently more adaptable to civilization than other savage races. and although they have not yet entirely lost some of their aboriginal characteristics even after residence of several generations in this country, they manage to hold their own very well with the whites. When they are brought in contact with a white population adapted to tropical life, and particularly to tropical city life, they rapidly deteriorate. It can not be said that the Improved hy. gienic condition of Havana has benz nted them notably. Philadelphia Med. ical Journal.

WOMEN AND CORKS.

An interesting question has been raised apropos of the decision of the i Denver and Rio Grand railroad to e7n. ploy women instead Of men on the din- Ing cars carried on it's line. The tra- yelling public. even Colorado does not appear to welcome the change and the l chlef reason advanced is that the larg- l est share Of the walters duties on thar or any other western railroad lies in the drawing of corks. and for this duty women are ill-adapted. The ob- jection, however, does not "go'' as the headquarters of the railroad are in Denver, and Colorado is pre-eninently the state of equal rights Where wo- men may vote, may hold state offices. and may be the mayor of q city. it is not likely that she would be denied the privilege of pulling corks.
 The easy decision of this matter may be all right from the ethical point of view; but for all that. can women really draw corks? Have they ever been known to perform this duty. ex- cept in the case Of beer bottles. which practically uncork themselves? Has a woman ever been seen to ex- tract with safety to herself or the gen GIal DuDuC lnG4 GOIk OA d GudIDIGlG c bottle? If her muscle is equal to the test. are her nerves qualified to withstand the explosion? There are corks in certain species of bottles which can be drawn only by the ex- pendlture of great deal of muscle; and, while there are undoubted many athletic women abroad in the world at this epoch, it is doubtful If moro than few of them adopt the waitresses' profession.
 Possibly the superintendent of the Denver and Rio Grande railway has a great moral purpose i'll view in decree ing this change on his dining cars. He may intend it as a discourag cement to the use of hard drinks, which general ly are those that are uncorked with difficulty. on his lines. If the custo- mer is served by a delicate woman, he is unlikely to assign her the task of drawing deep-sunken and possibly reealcitrant cork. Men are gallant in the West, and naturally will spare woman such service. We look for a decrease in the consumption of liquors on the Denver and Efo Grande rail- way.
