STATISTICS ARE DEFECTIVE.
City Health Department Makes Out Its
Annual Report.

There were more deaths than births
by 204, recorded by the city sanitary
department for Topeka during the
year 1905.
Facts, however, will probably not
bear this out, on account of the failure
of the physicians of the city to file re-
ports of births The notices of death
are always considerably more ac-
curate, because the undertakes per-
sonally make a list and file it with the
sanitary sergeant. One of the sore
places in the sanitation department of
the city has been the failure of physi-
clans of the city to make reports of
births.
The total umber of deaths according
to the annual report just completed by
Sanitary Sergeant Pattison was $40 of
births ass. .-...--- -.

BABC0CK EXPLAINS.
Wisconsin Congressman Replies to a
Newspaper Article.

Washington, Jan 1B.=XFf7en the
house met at IL O'clock Mr.. -BabcOck
at once took the floor on a question of
personal privilege. He based this on a
statement in a local newspaper, entitled
How Came Babcock to Rebel?' and
which gave as a reason for his opposi-
ton to joining Arizona and New Mexico
as one state, his pique at not being
made chairman of the appropriation
committee.
The statement, Mr.. Babcock said, to-
tally m1srepresented him and he also
believed the so-called '.staIwarts''
which he understood meant the house
organization. He had he said never
been an applicant for the Craftsmanship
Of the appropriations committee. He had
not wanted that Craftsmanship and had
it been rendered him should have de
clined it t'as I did not feel that under
the circumstances that 'I,.e0slId have
filed it to the satisfaction of the house"
As to statehood Mr.. Babcock said
ne had always been opposed to joining
Arizona and New Mexico as one state
and had always opposed it. At the
last session, he said the opposition
supported the rules committee of the
house joining the stateh God question as
the best means of killing the bill.
As to his views on the tariff. Mr..
BabcOck said they had not changed.
He presented a resolution adopted by
the Wisconsin delegation in congress,
January ID, 1905, in favor of revision
ana said while bowling as a party man
to the programme, he still adhered to
the OpinOin that revision should be had.
There was no reply to Mr.. BabcOck's
statement and when he concluded
some of his colleagues applauded,
Resolutions calling on the secretary
of the navy to report if there has been
any delay in delivering material to the
battleships Connecticut and Louisiana
now being built or any change in the
cost or plans of the ships were agreed
on.

A Wife Who Had Been Playing. Juliet
Hears Record of Her Own Voice.

Paris, Jan. 15.-The story is told to-
day of how the indiscrefion of a phono-
graph led to an action being taken FOR
divorce. The wife of an insurance
agent made the acquaintance OF. d man
who ultimately became her lover. The
lady was an accomplished pianist and
the meetings of the lovers We're devoted
to interpreting operate love scenes. In
order to preserve a lasting souvenir of
these imprisoned meetings, a phono-
graph registered the duo of Romeo ct
Juliette," punctuated with kisses. Last
evening a party was given at the insur-
ance agents house, and the wife found
a pretext for inviting her lover.
After tea music was. discussed and the
guests, knowing the anusical giftsaof the
lady of the house, pressed her. sta-sins.
She readily consented The husband
took up the phonograEfz afnlSing some
of the guests might like E6 hear the song
of the day. Candidates AoF the Presi-
dency-' But the record he slipped into
the photograph was not that of the
song, but of the famous duo between
Romeo and Juliet.
The emotion produced among the
guests as the photograph gave out the
lyric scene, the stupor4 or the hEs band
as he recognized his wife's voice, can
be better imagined thaa described.
There was a stormy Score IN tlesdraHs@
