BABIES DIE QUICKLY
|NINDUSTR|AL CITIES
Fall River, Mass, Has Highest
Death Rate-SeattIe Boasts
of Lowest in Land.

The annual death toll OF babies. a
average OF 1l3 to every thousand before
they are one year old, or eight times
the total death rate of all other ages
combined. was told In Census Bureau sta
tistics for 1911. made public today. The
figures are based on returns In the
registration area, comprising twenty
two States.
Industrial States and cities lead in
the death list of the infants. Fall
River. Mass, leads the country with
a rate of 239.5 to every thousand.
Seattle, Wash, with a death rate of
S5, has the lowest.
The figures are of particular interest
In view Of the fact that the Children's
Bureau. organized to save the babies,
Is now making its first canvass in in
dustrial cities seeking the cause Of the
heavy death rate, with a view to con-
Quoting a campaign of education among
mothers.
In eleven and a half years the aver
age death rate among infants less than
one year has decreased 70 per cent. In
but few cases has there been an In
crease.
OF the States making return Utah
had the lowest infant mortality rates
with s2.3 per thousand; Washington
with a rate Of S4.3 came next. Rhode
Island with 1915 had the highest death
rate. and New Hampshire with 1Si.9
was second.
In commenting upon the incomplete
registration laws of the country the
Census Bureau declares that II Is 'fnl-
possible TO present satisfactory rates Of
infant mortality for the great majority
of States and cities"

MOCK INAUGURATION
OF PRESIDENT WILSON
RENDERED BY JUNIOR CLASS
OF ARKANSAS STATE NOR
NAL AT CHAPEL.

At the Normal this morning the
Juniors rendered one of the most clev-
er and interesting programs of the
year. 1t was a mock inaugural of
President Woodrow Wilson.
The program began with a speech
by w. j. Bryan (W. A. Ellis). He
left no doubt in the minds of the au-
dience that the recent Democratic vic
tory, of which the inaugural was the
climax, was triumph of the princi-
pies he had advocated during the past
sixteen years. He was followed by
Mr.. McCombs (Sam Clark, who
made it clear that success had been
attained by means of Mr.. Bryan's
oratory and his own genius for financ-
ing the campaign.
Near the head of the procession, as
it moved up Pennsylvania avenue,
were the retiring and incoming presi-
dents in the persons of Lee Marble
and Ed Potts Set speeches were de-
livered by both (by photography
Then the chief justice C.. S. Butler)
in his long gown, stepped forward and
read the oath of office to President
Wilson.
Just as the ceremony was conclud-
ed, the solemnity of the occasion was
marred by the intrusion of a tumultu-
Gus band of suffragettes, carrying BAN
ners and the other insignia of their
order. 1t halted just in front of the
inaugural stand and proceeded to
make known their demands in no un-
certain tones So eager were they,
lest time be lost, as many as three or
four were talking at time. All felt
the embarrassment of the new presi-
dent. But the police, slow to act,
finally cleared the way and the cere-
monies were concluded in the usual
way.
1t is conceded by all that the whole
affair was we'll planned and well car
ried out. The suffragettes did justice
to their tribe and great honor to their
greatest leaders, Lady Parkhurst and
General Jones.
1t was an hour of seriousness and
fun, and President Doyne was heard
to say, What next?"
