LoNOoN'S DEATH RATE.
That City Ranks Among the Most
HealthfuI - the World.

London can claim TO rank among
the most healthful towns Of the world.
1t appears from the bulky annual re-
port Of 1905 of the medical officer Of
health for the county of London, that
not only was the metropolitan death
rate Of 151 per thousand in 1905 less
than ever before, but that only three
big towns-BristOl. West Ham. and
Leicester-cOuld show better record
Moreover. il was less than in any Of
the great cities of Europe and America
except Brussels and Amsterdam. At
the same time. the birth rate was less
than ever before. At 211 per 1000 OF
the population. it shows a decline Of
O.S on the previous year. and at 60 in
fifty years This decrease has not
been equally conspicuous in all parts
Of London. During the decennium
1Sg1-lgOO the birth rate was greater in
the registration districts of White
chapel and St. George-in-t he-East
than in ls71-SO. a result probably in
directly due TO alien immigration In
all other registration districts the birth
rate has declined.-LOndOn Post.

OLD SPOONS DUG UP.
coroner's "Quest" is to be Held Over
an English Find.

While digging in a poultry run near
Salisbury. England. two laborers came
across seven silver spoons, about the
size of an ordinary tablespoon. with
curios shaped handles. The men. after
cleaning the spoons slightly, took them
to j. Sidney Rambridge who discovered
they We're silver spoons of considerable
value, being extremely fine specimens
of the work of the sixteenth and early
seventeenth centuries.
He communicated with the agent of
the Earl Of Pembroke. the lord of the
manor, and ultimately the police were
acquainted with the discovery. They
took possession of the property, and as
a result a corOner's quest will be held.
With regard to the cOroner's quest,
Sir John Jarvis. in discussing the office
and duties of coTOners. says:
Treasure trove is where any gold or
silver coin, plate or bullion is found
concealed in house. or in the earth.

to it; this prerogative right only ap-
plying in the absence Of an owner to
claim the property.
IF the owner. instead OF hiding the
treasure. has casually lost it. or parted

evident he intended 10 abandon the
property altogether. and did not pro-
pose to resume it on another occasion

MONONGAH. W. Va, Dec. PAT II
o'clock this morning 256 bodies have
waiting for transportation. 1t Is esti-
mated that there are stiH las bodies in
the mines.
Eighty-ive bodies are unidentified.
The greater number Of these have al
ready been buried.
IT is said by the officers OF the COM
pany that there are bodies IN the mine
that will never be recovered. These are
lying under a fall Of slate, and It may
be months before this section Of the
mine Is opened.
It is hoped, however, to have most OF
tho bodies recovered before Saturday
night.
The census Of MonoEgah and vicinity
begun by the Fa!-rnont Coal Company
will show that more than 800 women are
made widows, and that more than l.COO
children are left fatherless as a result
OF the terrible mine disaster OF last Fri
day. The census was begun by the
company to ascertain. il possible. Just
how many families were affected, and
their financial condition.

in a. drift at the 1l9-fOOt level Of the
GIroux mines Alpha shaft at Ely.
Attempts to reach the men are being
attended by the most heartrending dif-
fcuIties, and. inasmuch as It was not
thought possible until yesterday that
they could be alive. the men are labor
ing under heavy difficulties. The pris-
oners succeeded in communicating with
the rescuers by means OF six-inch
pipe which reaches to the surface from
their tomb in the heart of the half
filed mine. Their message fairly cleo
trifed the rescuers. Fresh recruits have
been secured and the opening Of the
shaft is being pushed at maximum
speed.
The imprisoned men, who have been
SUPPLIED with food and water by means
Of the pire, say they will be safe until
the rescuers reach therl. They can not
likely be brought to the surface ir less
than another week.
