NEW OLYMPIC RECORDS.

Again have the athletes competing In
the track and field events OF the Louisi-
ana Purchase Exposition revival OF the
Olympic games demonstrated that they
are the peers OF any previous aggregation
Of international character. Yesterday tho
third OF the 1904 Olympiad, one worlds
record fell before the prowess of an
American: three Olympic records were
broken, the laurels going to two Ameri-
cans and q Greek. and one Olympic and
worlds record was broken. but owing to
an unfortunate accident the time will not
be allowed as the official record.
HI Hillman OF the New York Athletic
club ran the 4co-metre hurdle In rs sec
onds under the olympic and worlds rec
ord. Hillman was forced the entire dis
tancs by Frank Waller OF the Milwaukee
Athletic club. who finished second. and In
the excitement OF the race Hillman failed
to clear tho last hurdle cleanly and the
barrier fell 10 the ground, disquslifying
but not affecting the result
OF the race.
The 2oo-metre run again brought out q
field OF record breakers. Archie Hahn
OF the Milwaukee Athletic club won the
event. but secured an advantage at the
start OF two yards over his three competf-
tors, the latter having made false start
and receiving penalties.
Pericles Kakousis OF Athens, Greece,
had everything his own way In lifting the
bar bell and won the event by lifting
weight OF lss pounds.
Kskousis then went after the Olympisn n
record. which Is also regarded as the
worlds record. and raised .4s pounds, four
ounces more than the record made By tho
Danish athlete, " Jensen OF the Copen-
hagen Athletic club. at the Athens olym-
pisd In 1895
Ralph w Rose Of the Chicago Athletic
association played ducks and brakes with
the olympic and worlds records In the
1s-pound shot put. Ills first essay buried
the Olympic record and came within two

twice more before he succeeded In
smashing the latter with q put OF ~ feet

RACE SUICIDE
WORRIES
THE WEST

Chicago, Sept 1.-Chicago and the West
according to the opinions expressed by
many physicians today. has not escaped
the throes OF the race-suicids monster,
which at present is turning the attention
OF the East, and especially New England,
toward the great discrepancy between the
number OF births among native Americans
and parents OF foreign extraction.
The Chicago doctors say that the pro-
portion Of American children born Is less
than one-half 10 the birth rate among
parents who have come here from foreign
shores. They say that. while IL may be
a national crime, It Is not a national
menace as the foreign-born children
eventually become Americans.
MY 30 years experience has proved TO
me that the number OF children born 70
American parents In rapidly decreasing,
while the families OF foreign parents are
on the increase as regards numbers" said
DR.. ID. A. X. Steele, actuary OF the
College Of Physicians and Surgeons. In
the cities especially IL this true.
There is a great disposition among
American women TO escape the trials and
cares OF motherhood. while the women
from foreign shores having no thought for
society or the other things that attract
our American women, do not shrink from
the responsibilities OF motherhood.
1T Ia "A serious social problem. blame
the women more than the men. The men
do not shirk the expense and added re-
sponsibilitity which families mean. but
the women do not want the inconveniencs
and trouble. II II were not for the new
foreign blood the race would die out IN
time.
Race suicide is our great national
crime, but the foreign blood that Is IN
fused into our nation does not necessarily
mean a menace. In time the children
OF foreigners will all be Americans. just
as thorough Americans as We are who live
| today"
From 10 10 20 foreign blooded children
are born TO one American child" sald DR.
! Sanger Brown, one of the foremost
| American alienists. The American
people are vastly superior in so far a,
education. intelligence and energy ART
concerned. but they have reached a socia
| position where each husband and wifi
| tries not to raise a. large family. In Chi
| cago the foreign family is larger than tn,
American by many members. IL r. tn,
| poorer people who raise children, and a,
the foreigners are generally the poores
they raise the most children"
