DEATH RATE HERE
AS BETWEEN RACES.
Than of the Whites-Some of
the Causes.

Nh James E. o'Grady. Clerk of the
Board OF Health, gave out the state
nent yesterday that in the month OF
August 1901, there were le2 deaths in
among The colored. For August, 1892
there were l47 deaths-6i whites and So
coIore,..
THIS report shows thirty-five more
esaths III August, 1901, than in August,
1%2 LIS is an interesting and en-
couraging fact.
But the most interesting fact in the
oTIef table is the laconic statement ths.t
this August there have been e. white
deaths and So coiored. This is the re-
!1arkable part Of the report to one who
has rot kept up with the mortality Stats
TICS Of the TWO races.
Say there are 10000 people in Rich
mond: and OF this number say there are
ohtS whites and 1900 negroes. This is
substantially correct. Then it may be
seen that Of the 5000 cUlored folks So
have died, ana Of the $4,000 whites only
81 have died. This showing is very favor
able 10 the health and longevity Of the
AHgio-SaAoa race as compared with the
African. The negroes have 30 per cent.
OF the population here and yet have GO
per cent. OF the total number Of deaths.
OF the negroes of Richmond died last
month, while only one white for every
so whites died.
These facts show why it was that the
LOG :
-1St census showed decrease IN the ne
gro population Of Richmond. The negro
IS dying and moving away faster than be
Is being born here.
WhF the death rate of the negro in
richmond and elsewhere is SO great may
readily be seen by even a casual obser-
Ses Lack OF sanitary precautions. de-
saachery, filth, lack of bodily care, in
sufficient and badly-cooked food, alb
sence of regular employment. and many
other things combine TO shorten the life
or The negro. 1t has been stated openly
IL Richmond that the industrial insu-
rance companies here are the cause Of
many deaths. Negroes insure the lives
OF their children at low rate, and when
hard times come the young negroes
manage 10 die mysteriously. 1t cannot
be said that this practice is very wide
spread. and IL is to be hoped, for the
sake Of humanity, that there have been
but few cases of infanticide for the sake
Of insurance

ABOUT FREE PASSES

Nessrs. G z. Robertson ard c. C.
Nhitworth, justices Of the peace of Ber-
Inuda and Midlothian districts, some
Tine ago rendered their designations as
such justices TO Judge Clopton. submitting
that they were enjoying free transporta-
lion on certain railroads and, being IN
willing to surrender their passes were
barred by the constitution from holding
the Offices OF justice Of the peace.
In each OF these cases Judge CIopton
declined 10 accept The resignation. holding
that the section referred to does not con-
template that county officer may not
accept and use a free pass, where such a
pass Is part of the compensation al
lowed him by transportation company
In consideration OF his services to such
coMranE.

Saturday night the Clyde sprung leak
and the crew worked the pumps all night
and thought they would be able to Keep
her afioat. The water toward daybreak
gained on them rapidly, however, and
shortly before O'Clock it became ap-
parent that they would have to desert
her. They packed their effects into the
boat and were about to do this when
the tug Joseph McClark came along and
took them aboard. Captain Noltage
however, went in the cabin to get
knife, meaning to cut the new malnsail
loose and save it. Just then the Clyde
went down in four fathoms Of water.
The thrush of water burst the deck
house and the Captain had narrow es-
cape from drowning being rescued, how
ever. from, the water by the tugs crew.
The Clyde is out of the track of deep
draught vessels and as she is an old yes
sci will probably be left there. proving
with her cargo a total loss. She is OF
3OS tons net register and her cargo is
worth about $500 1t is regarded as like
~ that her seams opened in the gale out
side and caused her to leak. She went
down like a shot at last.
Mr. G Sullivan went down yesterday TO
see about the boat. Her cargo was IN
sured.
