Smith of Brockton, Mass, Il profess
sional aeronaut, fell Il distance of 125
feet from Il balloon at the Maine State

cended in 4 balloon from the fair
grounds in sight of 1000 people, and
when at the height of 100 feet the bal

Son, James b. Hunt Manufacturing
Company, Elizabeth Hardware Com
pany, and the National Oil and Sup
ply Company. They were referred

rs SUICIDES
FOR AUGUST
David S. South, Registrar, Gives
New Jerseys Population at
a. 1881.

TRENTON, Sept. 6.-David S.
South, registrar of vital statistics,
yesterday issued the monthly state
ment of mortality for August. The
bulletin, which follows, includes the
vital statistics of the entire state:
The estimated population for the
state for August, 1906, is 2,17S,S71.
The total number of deaths reported
to the state bureau of vital statistics
during the month of August was 81
23S. lnfantile diarrhoea was the prin-
cipal cause of death during the
month of August, the number of de-
cedents from this cause being $50,
but this large number is in accord
with the records of previous years,
and is doubtless mainly due to the
rapid bacterial changes in unclean
milk, which are produced by the
high temperatures of the summer
season. tuberculosis of the lungs
caused 272 deaths, which is slightly
above the average of this disease.
Pneumonia caused 112 deaths, this
being so less than during the previ-
Gus month. Diseases of the digestive
system (infantile diarrhoea eXcepted)
caused 241 deaths. Diseases of the
heart and circulatory system caused
261 deaths. Typhoid fever caused 20
deaths, which is slightly below the
monthly average 1922 for the past
year. The mortality from diseases of
the nervous system still maintains a
high rate, but the number of deaths
recorded as having been due to this
disease (370) does not equal the av-
erage monthly rate for the previous
years (426.) Whooping cough was
unusually prevalent, AZ deaths from
this disease having been recorded.
The following table shows the
number of certificates of deaths re-
ceived in the state bureau of vital
statistics during the month of Aug
ust, 1906, and also the number of
deaths from certain selected causes:

TOUCHING Scene
The Editer of the Burlev Bulle.
tin in Describing the Depar-
ture of Several Oakley boys
for Missions Says

One scene which brought the
moisture to the eyes of many
who witnessed it, was the part
ing of three brothers, one of
whom had been assigned to a
three years mission among the
people of the far south. Reared
together in their home far back
in the mountains, working
shoulder to shoulder in the fields
and sharing together the Joys
of home beneath the parental
roof, no thought had ever come
to them of the parting which
comes to all sooner or later.
Falling upon the neck of the de-
parting brother, they kissed
him affectionately, while great
tears rolled down their bronzed
cheeks, and with tear-dimmed
eyes these two stalwart young
men watched the train disap-
pear far out across the desert.
Eagerly they watched the reced
ing train till it became a speck
in the distance, then fondly en-
bracing each other they turned
their saddened hearts toward
their mountain home.
Among the missionaries who
departed were: Chester Harper
J. 0. Martindale, Fred Larson,
Wallace Hale and William Mat
thews. They are assigned to
points in England, New Zealand
Netherlands, the southern and
uiddle states and Colorado"

be punished accordingly; and
that all governments have a
right to enact such laws as in
their own judgment are best cal
culated to secure the public in
terest, at the same time, how
ever, holding sacred the freedom
of conscience,
7. We believe that rulers, states
and governments, have a right,
and are bound to enact laws
for the protection of all citizens
in the free exercise of their relig-
ious belief: but we do not believe
that they have a right in justice,
to deprive citizens of this privi-
lege, or prescribe them in their
opinions, so long as aregard and
reverence is shown to the laws,
and such religious opinions do
not Justify sedition nor conspir-
acy.

acts in relation to them, either
in making laws or administering
them, for the good and safety OF
society.
2. We believe that no govern
ment can exist in peace, except
such laws are framed and held
inviolate as will secure to each
individual the free exercise of
conscience, the right and con-
troll of property, and the protec-
tion of life.
4. We believe that religion is
instituted of God, and that men
are amendable to him, and to
him only, for the exercise of it,
unless their religious opinions
prompt them to infringe upon
the rights and liberties of others;
but we not believe that human
law has a right to interfere in
prescribing rules of worship to
bind the consciences of men, nor
dictate forms for public or pri-
vate devotion; that the civil
magistrate should restrain crime,
but never control conscience;
should punish guilt, but never
suppress the freedom of the soul.
s. We believe that all men are
bound to sustain and uphold the
respective governments in which
they reside, while protected in
their inherent and inalienable
rights by the laws of such gov
lernments; and that sedition and
rebellion are unbecoming every
citizen thas protected and should
