Happen Every Year In The United
States.


They nflict death upon some 900
people, they deprive nearly 100000
pe ople Of their arms or legs, feet Or
hands and they disable some $4,000
others for life. The fact that acct
dents happen to some Y, 900 10 every
100000 Of our population is q good
measure for estimating the financial
loss which falls upon the community
every year by accidental death, total
disability, or temporary impairment
|of earning power, running 10 some
cases only few hours, In Others into
several weeks or months.
One feature Of accidents Is that the
percentage, in proportion to the diff
ference 10 population, Is greater 10
the city population than In the rural
| districts. The death rate Is highes :
among people forty-fiye or over. The
average aye at death from accidents
| IL thirty-four. The months II June,
fully. August, September and March
are most prolific in the number Of ac-
cidents. The four great causes OF
death are ption, accidents,
pneumonia and heart disease; but ac-
cident2l injuries cause greater dis
ability than The three other causes
and typhoid fever 10 addition. A per-
son 10 twice as liable 10 die from ac-
cident as from old age. Typhoid fever,
apoplexy, Inflammation of the brain
and meninxiuis, paralysis, diphtheria,
| diseases Of the stomach, liver and
brain, all these are slight menaces to
| life compared with the accident
| hazard. The number Of people killed
| or injured 10 the United States each
! year is greater than all the casualties
| OF the Napoleonic wars, covering
seventeen years. The chance that 9
! person xs}l meet with some disabling
! injury within a wear + about eleven
| times greater than the chance Of his
death from any and all causes during
the same period.
| Had every person who was accident
ally killed held $1,000 accident
policy In 1902 the Insurance beueft'
would have amounted 10 over 81,
900, 600. Had every person injured g

THE LYNCHEHAUN CASE.


London, Nov. 2-The release from
custody of Jas. l.. Lynchehaun by Fed
eral Commissioner MOores, at Indian
apolis, Saturday, on the ground that
while Lynchehauns crime was brutal,
it was nevertheless Of a political ma
ture, is adversely commented upon by
some Of the afternoon newspapers
here, the Globe claiming that politics
influenced the decision.
The Globe says: THE next assassin
of a president will plead Commissioner
Moores judgment with irresistible
force if he escapes across the Canadian
line. The Americans will have no
cause for complaint if the result throws
out of gear the whole machinery of
extradition between the United States
and Great Britain"
The Pail Mall Gazette remarks: by
the same reasoning used by Commits
sioner Moores it would always be pos
sible to refuse the extradition Of an
archists guilty Of the most dastardly
crimes. +"

Planting New Orchards,

The orchard industry is growing
quite popular among the farmers Of
Mississippi, and the acreage of new
trees will be largely increased dur

Nurseries outside the State furnish
the greater portion of the young
trees, and this has suggested a good
opening for home nurseries. A con-
Germ Of this kind has been organized
in DeSoto county with a capital
stock Of $4,000.
