CHICAGO TO BE MANLEss?
Statistics for Summer Show That g.
913 Males Died and acre Females
September Health Record.

Chlcago.--Is Chicago becoming q
msnless city7 This is the alarming
question which is suggested by the table
showing the comparative death rate OF
men and women in Chicago for the sum.
mer Just ended
IL Is a statistical fact that more fe-
males are born In Chicago in a year than
males. The mortality statement for the
Summer OF 1905. ended September 20,
published in the weekly bulletin OF the
health department the other day. shows
that last summer 3,9l3 males died In this
city and 1896 females.
The percentage OF male deaths. too,
over female deaths has increased since
last summer. II remains for the bureau
Of statistics at Washington TO figure out
Just when Chicago will be city OF
women.
The freak weather OF 1905 is blamed
by DR. Whalen for the heavy Increase in
mortality among children for this las,
summer. The Increase is 1928 over last
year.

REAL LOVE Is DYING.
SPECIALIST SEES EVIDENCE In

Fact That 30 Few People Go Insane
Over Matrimony Gives Clew to
Awful Conditions Which
Are Soon Coming.

London. - Interesting. carefully
complied. and in many respects un-
usual"
In these wrods Dr. Forbes winslow.
the brain specialist. describes the an
nual report OF the lunacy commission.
IL agree entirely with the commission
ers' indictment OF alcohol, he said. and
one OF the most effective ways OF check
ing the alarming increase OF insanity
would be to deal thoroughly and dras-
tlcally with the drink problem.
THE proportion OF insane because OF
love affairs is small--O.5 per cent. in
men and IL In women. We are getting
better in this respect. Al the present
moment there is not so much sentiment
as there used TO be. do not really
think, except in the case Of the silly at
tachments of boys and girls, that there
is much real love nowadays.
Matrimonial matters are regarded
more nationally. Blind, unreasoning de-
votion Is a thing almost OF the past
You will observe that three times as
many women as men go insane owing to
love That is owing partly to the fe
male temperament, but Il is also attrib-
utable to the fact that. while Love is OF
mans life a thing apart tbs woman's
whole existence The young husband
goes out to his work content with the
matutlnal kiss. The woman remains
behind-sometimes the prey to all man
ner of groundless apprehensions and
jealousies.
There is comparatively little diner
ence between men and women In the
proportion driven insane by religious
excitement. hold strong opinions upon
this subject, but will content myself
now by deprecating fervid appeals TO
the emotions; they are fraught with
peril which is but little understood.
What must be done to check tho
dread growth OF insanity? Revise the
marriage laws. Prohibit habitual
drunkards and the mentally deficient
from marrying. This and the restric-
tlon OF the liquor trade will produce a
rapid change for the better"

New Industries.

A little feeling Of jealousy is
sometimes expressed by people,
not OF this county, on account OF
the few more or less public en-
terprises that have been estab-
lished in Utah County. 1t is
pointed out that Lehi in particu-
lar now has the Sugar Factory,
The Central Experimental Farm,
A Picking Station, Knitting Fac
tory, etc, and has favorable
chance Of securing other institu-
tions which would prove Of .bene-
fit to the people.
Now Lehi has no excuse to
offer for the work she has done
in securing these and other things
Of which she is proud. We hope
the people Of this city and the
whole county as we'll will continue
to place before the government,
or private companies, seeking
fields for profitable investments,
all the advantages Of climate
soil, market, transportation
power and location with which
this section has been so abun'
dainty blessed.
1t takes these necessary con-
ditions coupled with pull and
push on the part of the people
to establish any new industry
Where both conditions are salts
fed the industry comes, takes
root and thrives.
In laboring for these
things our rejoicing will be sin
cere in the building up and i'm
provement of all deserving see
tons Of the country.
