in the annual report of Surgeon Gen. eral R. M. O'Reilly for the fiscal year ending June 30. This increase is at tributed to cholera, which caused 354 deaths per thousand. A slight i'm provement shows in the admission rate for disease and injury which declined from l79l.59 per thousand in 1901 to 1716.51 per thousand in 1902. Discussing other features of the health of the army, Surgeon General O'Reilly's report says
 "The enrolment of about 5000 na- tive Filipino scouts having added a new racial element to the army, it becomes matter of much interest to study the comparative effects of disease on them and on our white and cclored troops. For the whole army, at home and abroad, during the year 1902, the white troops showed an ad- mission rate of 1706.33 per thousand and death rate of 4.40. The negro troops had 1S97.74 admissions and 241.1 deaths per thousand, and the Malay scouts 1707.2l admissions per thousand and 24.04 deaths. The white race, therefore, gave the lowest figures in sickness and much the lowest mortality. The black race led in both, although the Malay closely ap- preached it in death rate.
 "The freedom of the Filipinos from the vice of drunkenness is strikingly shown when we find that out of 5000 men, only three individuals were treated for alcoholism in one year, and that while white soldiers were admitted to sick report on account of their own misconduct in the use of alcohol at the rate of 11.70, the Malay scouts showed the extremely small admission rate of .62 per thousand.

POWERS AGREE
England and France, Check Allies in
 Far Fast

London-It is learned that in ad- dition to the settlement of the Anglo French arbitration treaty an impor- tant understanding has been reached between Great Britain and France, in connection with the far east. When the French foreign minister, M. Del Casse, accompanied President Loubert to London recently, he dis cussed with Lord Lansdowne the pos sibility of Russo-Japanese war, with the result that both foreign ministers argeed to exert the utmost possible pressure to prevent their respective far eastern allies-Russia and Japan from coming to hostilities. It was frankly recongized that any such war would seriously endanger the entente which is now having practical results in an Anglo French arbitration, as some reckless action either by Russia or Japan might involve France and England in hostilities.
 To avert this a private understand ing was arrived at that Minister Del Casse should urge peace at St. Petersburg, while Lord Lansdowne should use every endeavor to keep Japan in check.
 This understanding is the most i'm portant factor looking to peace in the far east and, taken in connection with the Japanese assurances to Russia with regard to the evacuation of Manchuria and the general pacific tone adopted by the Japanese govern ment and its representatives abroad, it goes far to explain the feeling of security exhibited in London and several other European capitals in connection with the alarming reports emanating from China and elsewhere.

ENTIRE COUNCIL END THEIR LIVES
An Extraordinary Tragedy is Reported
 From Hungary

Vienna-An amazing tragedy, and one, in all probability without pre- cedent, has taken place at Peszer, a village in Southern Hungary.
 The entire village council consisting of seven pesrons, all related to each other, have committed suicide.
 The reason for this is as remarkable as the act itself. 1t appears that an opportunity arose to sell forest which was village property. The council of the village resolved itself on this occasion into family council, and the utmost care was taken by the seven that no hint of the idea of purchase or sale should transpire in the village.
 With the secrecy of plotters they held meetings to discuss the matter, made their own terms and concluded the deal without any of the villagers being any the wiser. Deeds were drawn up by themselves, and as they were the only members of the council no outside signatures were necessary.
 The sum paid for the forest was considerable, but, instead of passing into the municipal exchequer, it was divided into seven portions, and each of the related councillors appropriated a share and kept it for his own use. The most extraordinary ingenuity was manifested in their endeavors to keep the transaction, with the con- sequent appropriation, secret. For long time these efforts were completely successful.
 At last, however, the whole affair was discovered in dramatic manner, when, rather than face the conse- quences of their action, the seven re- lations held hurried meeting, and there and then put an end to their lives.
 The Rev. Dr. Fourthly was making one of his pastoral calls at the Upjohn mansion.

Iron Production to Be Curtailed

Pittsburg-At meeting of the com mittee appointed by the blast furnace operators of the central west to con- slider restricting the output of iron to the market requirements, it was decided to order suspension of 25 per cent of the capacity of the last quarter. of the year. The southern blast furnace operators, with head quarters in Birmingham, Ala, with a capacity of over 1900, 900 tons, will cooperate with the northern furnace operators to prevent an over-produc- tion of iron, and will suspend opera tions to about the same etxent.

FROM DESERT TO VINEYARD
GOVERNMENT IS TO CONDUCT THE
 EXPERIMENTS
Particular Attention Will Be Paid to the Culture of Early Table Varieties-Interest of Southern California Viticulturists in the Work

George Husman of the United States department of agriculture ar rived in Los Angeles last week and spent several days in looking over the vineyards of the southern district.
 Husman is authority for the state ment that the government will shortly establish six vineyard experimental stations in California, but in only one of these will any considerable interesG be felt in this district. Husman s statement that experiments, the nature of which he will not now reveal, will be conducted on the Mojave desert, has already opened up wide field of speculation. Vine yard men incline to the belief that the varieties that will be tested there will be those suited to table purposes, in view of the success which has at tended the production of early table grapes on the Colorado desert.
 Not much interest IS taken locally in the raisin experiment station at Fresno. The varieties for raisin making, both seedless and others, are we'll known. Grape growers incline to the opinion that if Husman can succeed in inducing the Corinth grape to mature without developing seeds, he will confer great boon on the viticultural interests. The Cor inth is the variety of grape from which the Zante entrants of commerce are produced and no one in California has yet solved the problem of produc- ing seedless Corinth grape.
 Cuttings of the variety have repeat edly been brought from Greece. but in every instance the grapes have developed the objectionable seeds.
 Wine makers do net anticipate any great results as far as Southern Cali fornia is concerned from the station at Oakville in Napa valley, which will be devoted to the testing of wine grape varieties. Oakville is in the heart of district that produces dry wines, while Southern California leads in the quality of its fortified wines, such as port, sherry and Angel ica. The late H. w. Crabb had at one time in his vineyard at Oakville as many as 400 varieties of grapes, including the varieties from which port is made in Portugal and sherry in the Xeriz district in Spain, but of thelolder race of vineyardists in South ern California, including J. De Earth Shorb and l.. J. Rose, were ever able to be guided by the experiments that Crabb conducted, for the reason that the climate conditions around Oak vile are entirely different from those of Portugal and Spain.
 It is expected that before Husman returns to Washintgon he will give an outline of his plans as to the Mojave station. Herald.

FOREST RESERVE LANDS
If Thrown Open to Settlement Appli-
 cants Will Have Prior Claims

Eureka-The Eureka county land office has received an important tele- gram from Washington as follows :: "Deny right to make proof and pay ment, subject to right of appeal, and also subject to right to make proof and payment under pending applica- tion, if lands applied for are hereafter restored to entry.
 J. H. FIMPLE,
 Acting Commissioner.
 The telergam refers to lands re- gently reserved from entry. Under this order proof and payment must be refused upon any lands included in the forest reserve as subject to the right of appeal. The latter cannot be abrogated under this order and those who have made applications for lands included in the reserve are protected. That is, should this land subsequently, be thrown open to entry, they have the prior right to prove up and make payment for it. This ruling is ex tremely important, as many of those who have applied for claims were about to prove up on their claims. Under this order they will not only be required to prove up but will not be permitted to pay their money over to the government and thus will take no chance of losing it.
