THE negro question seems to
be in fair way to settle itself in
Cuba without recourse to the aid
of philanthropic societies or gov
ernmental regulations" remarks
the Philadelphia Mediean Journal.
Major Gorgas tells us in his report
on the vital statistics Of the cities
Of Havana 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 figures
were 457 and 269, whereas the
native negroes showed an excess
of SO deaths over births; this is
to say, the figures were 12S to
20. The figures for the year
1901 are even more significant.
During the twelve months the
the native whites gained 1740
and the native gained 174O and
the native negroes lost SIS, max
ing totle gain for the natives
Of 1927 inhabitants. The deaths
Of foreigners brought the differ
ence down to exactly one, al
though it must be remembered
that the number of foreigners
dying indicates that the city is
gaming rapidly inpopulation by
immigration. If this keeps up
for reasonable length Of time
there will soon be no negroes
left in Cuba. The most fatal
disease from which the negroes
suffer is apparently pulmonary
tuberculosis.

Presbyterian church in Indial Z
poIis, who resigned bis regular
nulpit work TO take bis place -
he side of the gass belt factory
workers and the farm hands, and
who has spent the last winter
working as common laborer
in the eastern cities, makes
charges against established church
organizations and custom, in the
series Of addresses that he began
here last night. He charges that
the poor people are at present
not welcome in churches, and he
marvels that they are not bite /
against Christianity.
He related chuach experiences
he had since he became a laboreI
in the ranks with the other hall,
and among these experiences was
that of being led out OF fashionable
churches because he was neatly
but not fashionable dressed. and
Of being told that the "mlsslo"
around the corner" was for men
of his walk Of life. His denuncia'
ton of all sccts, in this respect
was blunt. and hc hegum his
enumeration at this Presbyterian
assembly by heading the list with

unoficially, to occupy the pulpit
of the new labor church which
organized labor proposes To erect

Though he has not yet said 50,

NEW RAILROAD.-A dispatch from
Grafton, W. We, says: "Fhe line Tor
the new Bismarck and Potomac rail-
road has been de6oitely laid out. 1t
runs from Bismarck, on the Allegheny
Mountains, by Msyville, down Luoey's
creek to Petersburg; theOoe down the
South Branch Valley by Moorefled TO
Romney, and from that poi1t to theVsl-
ley of Virgiois, about Winchester,
where o railroad outlet to tide-water is
afforded. Right Of way will be pur-
chased at once"
This Is the railroad which has long
been Ia contemplation. The route
from Romney to Winchester Will 90
over what Is known as the Lou
DOM and Hampshire route when
was surveyed In the interests OF
the Bismarck and Potomac Railroad
Company about a year ago. The line
then extendes from Winchester to
Round Hill and thence to tidewster by
way OF Alexandra. The only route
feasible by way OF Romney is the
L1udouu and Hampshire survey which
would of necessity lead to Winchester.
From the progress which the plans
have already made, it would appear
thai q new railroad TO Winchester Is
certainty OF the near future.
The building of the road would open
up the rich coal & lds OF Wet Virginia
aud make Alexandra prominent coal
shipping point. This is the dream OF
those who frs fjscied the old
Loudoun and Hampshire railroad and
these dreams, it ia still held by many,
Will yet tie Iesliz d, - Alexandra 10
nearer the coal fields ban sDy other
deep water port IN the country.
