RALEIGH'S TYPHOID
DEATH RATE

To the Editor: The startling figures
given in this mornings News and OBJ
server showing a typhoid death rate in
Raleigh eight times as great as in
New York and six times as great as in
Chicago, should set all Raleigh people
thinking-and acting. What strikes
me as the most significant feature u
the entire table is that While the
white death rate in Raleigh is II per
cent higher than in Wilmington. the
mex highest city in the entire list. the
colored death rate in Raleigh Is III
per cent higher than in Wilmington
and Al e cent higher than for any
other city in the entire list
This is a fresh reminder of the truth
Of what DR.. Stiles has so often SAID -

How That Started.

When Adam met Eve he was bashful
and shy.
And he stammered and blushed every
time she came nigh,
Till at last he grew. bold and began to
pay court
(You may put all your trust in this
faithful reporD,s
And he murmured to her on an eve
ming serene;
you're the prettiest girl that I ever
have seem
And that's how that started.
When Eve, with a beautiful blush On
her face,
Yielded shyly and sweetly to Adams
embrace.
And put up her red lips for the true
lovers pact
(You may set all this down as an alb
solute fact)
She inquired, While he breathed the
fond names on his list:
Have you said that to all of the girls
you have kissed?"
And that's how that started.
When Adam asked Eve if she would
be his bride,

she sighed and she sighed
And she let him take hold Of her lily
white hand
(This is history now, as you must I'M
derstanO,
Then she said, in voice that was
dulcetly low:
II must take time to think. Ills SO
sudden, YOU know"
And that's how that started.
When they had been married few
years or so,
Then Adam told Eve: Were invited
To a dinner and dance with some
friends down in Nod"
(This is truly authentic, although i!
sounds odd).
Eve replied with sad and a sorrow.

HISTORY OF THE SISTERS OF CHARITY.

st. Vincent de Paul there were, in
1850, more than forty houses of the
Sisters Of Charity in France, and the
sick and poor were cared for in their
own dwellings in twenty six parishes
in Paris. AS years went on their num-
bers grew. Switzerland received the
sisters in 1850. In 1878 they were c.
tablished in Piedmont, whence they
spread over Italy. The Spanish COM
munity was started by six sisters from
Paris in 1890. In 1889 France had 42G
5000 In Europe. At the very begin
ming of the Reign of Terror, the
mother house of the sisters was in
vaded by the revolutionists, who had
attacked Saint-Lazare across the
street the night before, but the sight
of this band of angels of mercy on
their knees in the chapel moved their
assailants to leave them unmolested.
In August, 1892, the sisters were Or
uSASU " NoAI S1l0 anu
the end of 1893 saw their community
disbanded officially, though the SUI
perior, Sister Antinette Duleau, sought
to keep them together as far as prac-
ticable. AS soon as the consular gov
eminent was established in 1901, the
society was recalled by an edict set
ting forth the excellence of their work
and authorizing Cheyenne Duleau, the
former superior, to organize.
Their greatest growth has been in
France during tho nineteenth century.
Persecution has driven them from all
their schools for the poor and from
most of their works of mercy, but this
has given hundreds of new laborers to
the foreign missions. During the last
hundred years their growth has been
extraordinary. They have gone to
Austria, Portugal, Hungary, England,
Scotland, Ireland, North and South
America. The Orentals call them
1.-The Swallows of Allah" from their
cornettes, and they have houses in
Constantinople, Smyrna, Alexandria,
Jerusalem, DAMASCUS, Persia, Abyss
sinia and China. Their number is
about $4,000.
In the United States the first COM
munity was started by Mother Eliza
beth Seton "a. w in 1909. She ar
ranged to have sisters come ovex from
the mother-house in Paris in 1910 to
affiliate her young. community at EN-
mitsburg, Nd, to the daughters of
ST. Vincent, but Napoleon forbade the
departure of the sisters for America.
She had received, however, from Bish-
op Flaget, the rules Of the Sisters Of
Charity, and put them in practice with
some notifications which were sug-
gested. Houses were founded in Phil
adelphia and New York, when through
the request of Archbishop Hughes of
New York, in 1916, the majority of
the sisters laboring there were re-
leased from the Emmittsburg juris-
diction and formed an Independent
community following . the same rule.

OIL WILL Be P|PED
From California Oil Fields to
Arizona---Will Be Longest
Pipe Line in the World
ARIz0NA'S FUEL PROBLEM
Will Be Solved and Projected
Line To Be Completed
in One Year

The greatest pipe line project in
the history of the California petro-
leum industry has just been launch
ed. Within one year from now,
barring mishaps. an eigth-inch steel
pipe from 1900 to 1000 miles long,
will be distributing the oil of the
San Joaquin gushers throughout
Arizona and as far into Mexico as
Cananea, and the California-Arizona
Pipe Line Company, the $25, 100000
corporation just projected by a COM
bination of the strongest oil produc-
ing interests in the world, will then
have started to pay for itself.
Within two years, at the outside,
if the history of pipe lines be re-
peated, the profits of the undertake
ing will have been sufficient to cover
the total cost of the line, which will
be $4,000, 900, in addition to paying
interest on the investment and bal
ancing the depreciation account.
At present 100000 barrels of oil
from California are finding market
in Arizona every month. This pipe
line will increase the Arizona con-
sumption of California petroleum by
at least 100000 barrels, making a
total movement of nearly 100000
barrels a month to the neighboring
State and to Sonora, Mexico.
Back of this pipe line enterprise
stand the powerful interests that
dominate the oil industry of Cali
froria that leads the world in the
production of petroleum. Those
interests will be able to place at the
command of the California-Arizona
pipeline As per cent of the petro-
leum output of California if neces-
sary. The huge Arizona metallur-
gical plants will thereby secure fuel
at much reduced cost at the same
time that one of the greatest pro-
jects thus far conceived in the course
of the oil industry's development in
California is amply vindicating in
dividends the judgment of the men
who organized it.
When completed the pipe line will
extended to Globe, and also to Mo-
renci and Clifton.
