representatives Warnock, of Ohio,
from the House Committee on Labor,
reporting fayorably the bill creating a
commission to inquire into the condi-
ton Of the Afro-American people of
the United States, says. after review
ing the purposes of the bill:
/ 1T is painfully apparent that al
though nearly forty years have elaps-
ed since the Afro-American race was
given its freedom, and although it has
lived in the United States during all
this time side by side with the white
race, that there is less of harmony
between the races to-day than there
was at the time, the race was given
it's freedom" r." ~. IT. ~
He adds that while the Afro--Ameri-
can has made very great progress in
many respects, yet it is true that great
evils have crept into his social, eco
.nomic and industrial life. The aim
of the bill, according to the report, is
to acquaint the Afro American people,
comprising, as they do, one-eighth of
the population OF the United States,
with their true condition in this .coun-
try, and to furnish information for
the study of their sociological condi-
ton =... @
The bill provides for a commission
OF hve persons, to be appointed by the
President: who shall each receive So
500 per annum and an allowance for
actual travelling expenses. Allowance
also is made for the expenses Of the
commission, consisting of clerks, ste
nographers, rent, printing, &C., not ex-
ceeding $4,000 per annum.

DEATH RATE.
Interesting Facts From Super
intendent Tibbetts' Report.
Death Rate Outside Of Hospital Was
II to 1000.
Most Deaths in March and Fcwcst in
December.

Charles o. Tibbetts. superintendent oil
buriaIs, has submitted his report for tn.
year ending, March 1, 1902. The report
which is now on file at the office of the
city clerk contains list Of all the deaths
in the city during that time. An inspec-
tion of this list reveals many interesting
facts.
According to the information in which
ii contains the death rate for the year
has been approximately "a to the thou
sand. This is very large rate but it is
much greater than it otherwise would be
at the insane hospital. There were 977 pa
tents under treatment at that institu-
ton, last year, out of which there were
1Jl deaths. Taking this into considera-
ton the death rate for the remainder of
the city is reduced to but II to the thou
sInd. This is most excellent showing
il comparison with other cities of the
country, the average death rate for 81
cities of over 5000 inhabitants in 1890 be-
ing 1S.6, according to the census of that
year.
The month of March exceeded all 9TH
cr5 in the number of deaths, having %,

system, but it seemed advisable to do
more and the contract has been given

will be put in perfect sanitary con-
dition. The board is also considering
the idea of placing line of medicines
in the iaiI for the use of the prisoners.
This is done in the Auburn, Portland,

convenient for the county physician
and other officials. The board Will be

SMOKE TALK.
Abnaki Club Members Listen to Prot
Lee on Labrador"

Prof Leslie A. Lee, of the biological
department of BowdOin College, de-
livered a smoke talk before the Abnaki
Club, at the club rooms, last evening.
Prof. Lees subject was Labrador
and the lecture was an account of the
known expedition to that country
which was under the auspices of Bow
dom College.
This expedition was made in the
Julia Deekes by company, consist
ing of Prof. Lee and Is students of the
college, while the captain of the vessel
and the crew made up total of %.
The object was to make scientific re-
searches, and it was so successful that
several valuable reports have already
been made and others are being COM
piled. The company remained in the
region as long as it was safe on ac-
count of the ice. They went as far
north as the Moravian Mission at
Hopcdale. Besides the expedition
proper, party of four, under the
leadership of Austin Carey, went up
Grand river to attempt to re-discover
the falls which at that time had been
seen by only two white men. This was
successful and the band also found
what they renamed Bowdoin canon, q
gorge 20 miles in length, with walls
400 feet high at the upper end and 1000
feet high at the lower end. To these
geographical discoveries were added
much information about the fauna and
the fora of the country and upon the
Eskinos.
The whole story of this trip was told
by Prof. Lee in an extremely inter-
estins manner. He has Travelled ex-
tensively and his lecture upon "Pata-
gonia," delivered here. last year. was
highly appreciated by the members of
the club. 1t speaks well for his abili-
ty as lecturer and thorough acquaint-
ances with the subjects with which he
deals. that he was greeted. last even
ing. by a much larger percd tage of
members than last year, about 100 be-
ing present. The dissolving pictures
