Broken Down by Family Troubles
and Social Disturbances.

Berlin, Oct. fisherman official cir.
cles are not inclined to discredit the
rumors circulating in Belgium and
France to the effect that the king of the
Belgians contemplates abdication at an
early date. An attache of the foreign
Office said:
"King Leopold is old and feeble and
sorely needs rest from the burdens of
rulership. Besides the social disturb
ances in Brussels in the early part of
the year, family Affections and what he
has to endure through unprincipalled
gossipers, have had very bad effect
on the aged monarch"
His family has caused him SO much
mental anxiety lately that it is now
quite certain King Leopold will not
now visit the United States as he in
tended at one time.

MEDIAN AGE Is INCREASING.
Census Bureau Report Makes Popu-
lation Comparisons by Decades.

The census bureau has issued a state
ment showing the increasing age of
the population from decade to decade.
The statement gives the results of ON
putting the median instead of the aver
age age. The median is such an age
that half the population is under 1t and
half is over 1t.
The median age of the total popula-
ton in 1900 was 22.S, as compared with
21.9 in 1890. The median age of the
white population in the last census
year was 23.4 and the colored. includ-
ing negroes, Indians and Mongolians,
was 1877, while in 1890 the white pop
ulation was 22.4 and the colored 1873.
The report shows there was an in
crease in the median age of the white
population during each decade from
1910 to 1900 amounting in the 80 years
to IA years, or an average amount of
about five-sixths of a year in a decade.
The median age of the colored pop
ulation increased after 1880, but with
less regularity. The median age of the
colored population increased three
years in the 70-year period from 1880
to 1900, or only about half as fast as
that of the whites. But during the last
LU years VI tue CENTURY Jnt llCItdSt u
the two groups has been substantially
the same, 10 years for the colored and
two years for the white.
The statement concludes as follows:
Many complex influences have coop
Grated in producing as a resultant this
steady change in the age composition
of the population. Three may be men,
toned, the rapid progress of medical
and sanitary science, which has tended
TO increase the average length Of life;
the decrease in the relative number of
children born, which has made the earl
Ter periods less preponderant numeri-
cally in the total population, and the
influx, especially since 1910, of great
numbers of adult immigrants, increas-
ing the number in the older age periods.
"The difference between the white
and colored populations is doubtless due
to the fact that the influences have
wrought more powerfully upon the
white race than upon the colored."
