GRIM GAME IN RUSSIA.
Little Lads Play at "Triai" and Almost
Execute a Comrade.

A letter from Cherson. Russia, in de-
scribing an execution. says that mill
tary trials and the speedy executions
which follow them have been of such
common occurrence that the public
mind has become blunted. Sentenced
to death ard executed has become q
stock phrase. and the oft repeated gal
lows stories have influenced the minds
of children to such an extent that they
have q game called trial" in which
the brutalities of which they have
heard are enacted. The writer says
that the playing of this game by a
number Of boys In that town. none OF
whom was more than thirteen years
old. nearly resulted in the death Of
one little fellow who had been selected
to play the part of the prisoner. He
was tried. found guilty and sentenced
to be executed Only the timely inter
ference of elders prevented the trag.
sdy.

Conference 10 Be Held to Con-
slider Ways and Means.
CAUSES OF HIGH MORTALITY.

Most Blame Placed on Congestion Un-
der Unfavorable Conditions as to
Light and Air--Improved Tenements
May Be Solution of Problem.
Apropos of the appalling mortality
among the babies not only in our own
land, but throughout the civilized
world, no single factor can be pointed
out as the primary cause of this blot
on our modern civilization. The prob
lem and the possibility of its preven-
ton are to be considered at a special
conference arranged by the American
Academy of Medicine, to be held at
New Haven, Conn, Nov. IL and II.
What are regarded as contributory
causes can be gathered from some of
the subjects mentioned In the an
nouncement for the meeting. -Four ave
nues for the introduction of preventive
measures are indicated by the titles OF
the sessions medical. philanthropic,
institutional and educational. Practi-
cally all causes suggested under these
headings are summarized In the four
mentioned in the section on medical
evention-congenita debility, insult
able nourishment, improper care and
communicable or infectious diseases.
When it is recalled that the men who
are In the thick of the fight against
the needless and unnecessary waste of
baby life assert that the present in
FAINT death rate could be cut in half
by the enactment and rigid enforce
ment Of laws requiring the adequate
inspection of the sources Of the milk
supply, coupled with the sanitary in
spection of tenements, the accurate reg
istration of births and the instruction
Of the mothers by visiting nurses or
other properly accredited representa-
tives of the local boards of health, 1t
Is readily seen that two very grave
sources of danger are to be found in
the quality of the nourishment fed to
babies and the conditions of the homes
themselves. Serious as the problem of
a pure milk supply is, it is much less

Overcrowding Prime Cause.
One hundred years ago three and
one-third per cent of the population
Of the United States lived in the cities
Today thirty three and one-third per
cent of our S5,000,0O0 people are
crowded into the cities. Overcrowd-
ing, the congestion of population in
slum districts. the herding together OF
the great unassimilated mass Of immi-
grants in inadequate and insanitary
quarters. the selfishness Of property
owners, the apathy Of municipal gov
ernments in dealing with situations
which require drastic measures. al
contribute TO make this one of the
most complex as well as one of the
most disheartening factors in the big
problem of the prevention Of infant
mortality. According to recent re

bunch of cattle good enough to bring $3.50.
There were only a few cows on sale and,

they have all the week, inferior grass
kinds were very hard to move and the
market on that kim is 25940c lower h
