IL Il Not So Very Dangerous ~ the
Victim VIII Keep Cool.
II swimmers could be trained 10 keep
cool under all circumstances, there
would be comparatively little drown
ing among bathcrs and summer pleas
ure seekers. Cramp is usually assigned
as the cause when some good swimmer
browns. But cramp ought I'm reality TO
be nothing serious. Usually is affects
only an arm or a leg or maybe only a
hand or foot. Any moderately good
swimmer can keep anoat with one arm
or even without the use of that, yet
good swimmers drown often as a result
of craI4p. If such fatalities were ana
lyzed, they would be more properly
classed as drowning from fright and
loss of nerve. This comes from the fact
that every one is taught in childhood
to fear the water and comes as
grown man and n swimmer to fear
cramp. The average opinion is that
the man who is attacked when swim
ming in deep water is as good as
drowned. Therefore, when n swimmer
feels a leg or arm begin to cramp he Is
frightened in most cases entirely out
of his wits. He loses his head, begins
to splash and paw and struggle and
then goes down.
What the swimmer should remember
is that he can keep a6oat with very,
very little effort IL he will turn on his
back and keep his chest inflated. 1t is
the simple matter of floating, which
every swimmer knows and finds very
easy. If the swimmer will keep cool
and float, the cramping limb will fire.

The immigration Record Broken.
The old record of immigration for
one month, that of May, 1893 wnen
73 900 people came, will have been
broken by more than $4,000. The
totals for the first FIVE months OF 1902,
that for May being a close estimate,
are as follows:
January, 1928; February, 29,519;
March, 56,175; April, 1866; May
SO. 500; total, 2G7,1Ol.
While it is not likely that the enor-
nous total of 7SS,992 in 1882 or 62S,OS4
In 1892 will be this year equalled, inn
migration for 1902 promises to be
far greater than that of the last six
or seven years. It is the unwritten
statistical law that the food reaches
its highest mark in the first three or
four years of each decade.
immigration Commissioner Williams
states that 90 per cent Of the people
now coming hither are non-producers;
that is, they have no trades, although
they may find casual occupation. OF
these nearly all stay In the North
Atlantic cities, and especially in New
York. OF the a per cent classed as
producers more than half, or a quar-
ter of the whole number, are farmers
who go Immediately inland but this
needed element is proportionally fai
smaller than II was twenty years ago
when nearly half of of all the immi
grants We're destined for the Middle
West alone.
How insufficient present laws ar
to shut out the undesirable immigran
is shown by the fact that out OF tn
10000 who according to COMMISSIONS
williams promise no worthwhile add
tion to American citizenship ther
will be this month less than 1000 d.
