TO FIX RACE SUICIDE BLAME.
Statistician in Massachusetts, Makes
Plans for Inquiry.

Chief Statistician Charles f. Pidgin
OF the Massachusetts bureau of census
and statistics has decided to investigate
the race suicide question and make Il
complete report to the next legislature
With this in view lie has arranged to
send out a corps of census men to ask
questions of men of small families. The
move is an adjunct to that Of gathering
the census and, although the latter has
been completed the same men are to be
stsed as baby finders. Chief Pidgin be
lieyes that the fact that the population
does not increase is to be blamed more
upon men who refuse to wed than upon
small! families.
He says the only way to get satisfac
tory statistics on the race suicide Ques-
a0n is to base them on married women
and he is acting on that theory. Hav-
ing through the census obtained the
birth period with married women of
the state he will pursue his investiga-
tons further and prove that the race
suicide charge should be laid to the
doors of those men who refuse to marry.

POLICY EXPIRED TOO SOON
WEYAUWEGA MAN SUFFERS A BIG
LOSS IN AN EARLY MORN

Adjustor's Appraisal After Previous Blaze
Caused Dissatisfaction-Kept In
demnity as Matter of Fact.

WEYAUWEGA, Wis, March 90
Especial. IA fire at o'clock in the
morning totally destroyed two buildings
and caused loss of $4,000.
The fire originated in building owned
by G. Neidhold, the first story of which
was occupied by Frank Mittelstadt as
paint, oil and wall paper store, milllncr
shop and residence and the second story
was occupied by a number of lodges.
The second building was occupied by IL.
l.. Wilcox as q general store.
Several interesting features are con-
nected with the fire. Mr.. Neidhold had
not carried any insurance for ten years
or more, until last July, when he took Il
policy, which. after keeping it sixty
days, he asked to have cancelled.
Keeps Insurance in Time.
The agent who wrote the policy sued
Mr.. Neidhold for the premium due at
short rates, and then Mr. Neidhold de-
cided to keep the policy and pay for full
premium. On February fire broke
out in the building, causing $175 dam
ages. In adjusting his loss, the COM
pany which carried the line on millinery
stock. did not pay him what he thought
he ought to receive and so he said he
would not carry any more insurance.
On March IA his insurance on stock
failed to renew, and today he loses his
entire stock, which he says amounted to
$500, without any insurance. There
was policy covering household goods,
on which there was $SO6 still in force.
About one-half of the Wilcox stock
was saved. The intense l. cracked
plate glass in buildings across the street.
