tiers of Mental Derangement.
In a recent lecture delivered before
the National Geographical Society at
Washington DR.. William A. White, di-
rector of the Binghamton branch of the
New York insane asylum, devoted
much attention to the geographical dis
tribution of insanity. At the outset of
his lecture DR.. White produced certain
facts and figures showing that beyond
doubt insanity was increasing much
more rapidly than the population. The
cause of this, he said, was due to hered-
marrying of those tainted with insan-
ity, and to the fact of this country be-
ing the dumping ground for the trash OF
Europe. In support of his latter aSSer-
ton he quoted figures showing that %
per cent Of the 25,O00 insane persons
confined in New York asylums were of
foreign birth.
Insanity was most prevalent, he
stated, in regions where competition
was strongest and where the struggle
LUZ cAlStcuCc IdStu Tue hcICCSt. L uuo
the two great centers of insanity in the
United States were, he said, New Eng
land, where there is one insane person
for every $50 inhabitants, and, Califor-
mia, where there is one lunatic for every
$50 people.
The region of least insanity, he stated,
was that section of the West from the
Rockies to the Mississippi, comprising
the great agricultural and stock-raising
belt He showed that insanity was un-
known among the Indians, and almost
so among the Southern negroes, al
though in the North, where the negro
comes In competition with white labor,
his suicide rate runs to high point.
DR.. White presented some figures
which seem to indicate that of all Occu-
pations that Of agriculture is the least
liable to produce insanity. The popula-
ton of mining and lumber camps had
relatively high rate of insanity, where
as in all farming sections it was ex-
ceedingly low.
In conclusion, he stated that the prin-
cipal causes and agents of insanity
were alcoholism, mental worry, despair,
disappointment and all the other pains
that affiict the mind in a highly civil
lied state, where the struggle for exist
ence is sharp and pitilesS.

Great was the sorrow of Pc Of
negroes from Irwin County, Georgia,
when they had to part from their dogs
the other day. The White Star pier
resounded with their wailiDgs. The
bowls Of the dogs added to the out
burst.
How can we get along without dogs

two powerful fine coon dogs" But
when they trooped aboard the Teu-

plank said Get outv' to the dogs.
They're ours" said the leader Of
the emigrants. He was panied to
learn that his ticket didn't include
dogs, says the New York Press. He
was told he must get a government
permit before the dogs could be re-
ceived at an English port. He com
municated that fact to his compan-
ions and then the sounds of sorrow
arose.

"Pity they couldn't take the coon
