After medical aid had been summon ed death was pronounced tho result of heart failure.
 News of his death was received with regret and cams as a shock to the many local residents who knew him through his fraternal atlilations par hcuarlN the Grand Army, and through his business connections with the nursery company. Mrs. Howell was told of the sudden demise of her husband as she was preparing the eve nlne meal in anticipa ton of his home fNhllng but sO daZed was she by the sad news that it is said to have been hours before she fully realized that he had passed away.

 Vie President Guaranty Trust Co. of
 New York
 (Mr. ,Sisson las jnst yeturned from EuyoH-. iUlere he studied e.risting con- di''onS at first hand.)
 Great Britain, emerging from the first period of chaos and uncertainty follow ing the close of hostilities, finds her and hopeful of prosperous future than even the most optimistic had expected. True, the war, directly and indi- rectly, had cost her greater expenditures than those of any of her Allies. Her debt is enormous, and her postwar bud get is some four times that of the last fiscal year before the war Her people are burdencd with heavy taxation; her industries have been crippled financially and by labor troubles; and she has lost nearly million workers on the battle field.
 But analysis of the facts shows that the situation Is far less critical than it appears to the casual glance. While her gross debt on March 3l, 1919, the end ' of the last fiscal year, was $36, 746, $50, 056 of this sum only $65oo, 10O,00 repre- sented external obligations and only this smaller sum represents wealth which must leave the country in payment of debt. Furthermore this indebtedness IS more than offset by $8, 5S0,Q00,OOO in ad- vanccs to Allies and Dominons.
 To carry the nations debt calls for a , debt service in the budget for the com ing fiscal year of $1,I5l,7o0,000, or 30 per cent. of the revenue receipts, The fact that the taxing machinery has been organized for raising such enormous sums will be very advantageous in plan. ming the after-war administration ot government finances.
 Further offsets of this debt will be ti,c indcrlnitics eventually collected from ,hc Central Powers These, with the

SHORT CALENDAR CASES.
Seven Assignments Arc Made for
 Session on Friday.

Seven cases are listed for the short calendar session of the city court at 2:30 o'clock on Friday afternoon. They arc as follows:
 Charles r. Mccarthy. by w. A. Grecnstein, vs. J. J. Costello, by A. A. Greenbcrg, default for failure to comply with order of the court.
 Agnitzka R. Babula by Stanley Traceski. vs. Joe Strankovski ct nx., by F. E. IIungcrford, default for want of answer.

debts to be collected from the Domin- ions and the Allies, will gradually re- ducc tho burdens of English tax payers.
 Prominent among the counter balanC- ing items also arc returns from invest ments abroad and the receipts of Brit lsh-owned ocean carriers. It IS esti- mated that British foreign investments before the war amounted 10 $l0,4o4,- 100000 and that they now approximate Sl4, 5O0,OO0,0O0. Great Britain's rcmain- ing foreign investments exceed her ex- ternal debt by about SS,OOO,OOO, and the yield from these Investments at normal rates will not only pay the interest on that debt but will also leave a large margin to Enslands credit.
 The prosperity of the nation, how ever, will be measured largely by it's ability to produce marketable comr1odi- ties for sale abroad. It Is estimated that the nations power of production has been increased by about fifty per cent. by the speeding Up process induced
 by war needs. Great Britain's indus trial position has rested heretofore upon the ability to gather in raw ma terials from abroad and resell them as manufactures. Tn 1913, eos of the mer- chandse exports were classed as manu- |factures, while of the imports only 25.2 were so c1as,ed The expanded physi- cal equipment has enhanced the na- tion's power to serve as a worlds work
 shop.
 The number of men killed and those who died of disease in the armed forces of the United Kingdom in the war was proximatcly 100000. The population of Great Britain numbered 45,516,25o in 1911. At the end of 1918 the es- tinated population, deducting the loss of 100000, was 466733S0 We have
 then an actual increase in the popula- ton. Moreover, where the man-power has been depleted by the war it's place has been largely taken by the substitu- ton of wo1ler

Statistics. though often interesting.
are sometimes most misleading and
futile. For example. 1t is interesting
to know from the census bureau the
number Of prison commitments among
the foreign-born population of the
United States, but it would be most
unsafe to base any CONGRATULATIONS on
them, for the number of commitments
to prison is no indication of the num-
Der Of crimes committed. and there
are many more criminals at large than
behind the bars. Those In prison were
not clever enough to escape. They
got caught. Those at large were able
to commit their crimes and elude de
lection. The figures for America prob
ably are not very different There So
per cent of the criminals are at large,
It is fair to assume that this IS per
cent is more intelligent than the Is
per cent that got caught. Therefore
the Is per cent for which the statistics
are given Is a highly selected group,
and any conclusions based upon such
statistics are untrustworthy as applied
to criminals In general, however val
liable they may be as to the compare
lively small number that are In jail.
