EGAKTLANdT IIBIEIl Points from the Latest Census Bulletin STUDY IN STATISTICS . 1. 1 Advance in Medical and San , itary Science Shown by the Increase of the Average Term of Human Life ' Washington, August 21. TV. A. King, chief statistician of vital statistics for the twelfth ceusus, has completed a bulletin containing the preliminary sta tistics of "deaths in" the States and Ter ritories' and the principal registration cities during the census year, ending May 31, 1900. The bulletin was made public today and is in part as follows: The most important feature of the re sults presented is found In the decrep.se in the general death rate in the regis tration area of-1.8 per one thousand of population, a decrease of nearly ten per cent, and the decrease in the rates from the particular diseases to which the gen eral decrease is due. . j The effect of the advances made in medical science and sanitation and in the preventive and restrictive measures enforced by the health authorities is still more strikingly shown in the comparative-rate for the registration cities of the country taken together. In 1890 the death rateMn 271 registration cities of 5,000 or more population was 21 per one thousand; in lOoQ. the rate was 18.6 per 1,000 in 3il cities of 8,000 popula tion and upward, ft' reduction of 2.1 per II M PfRP Mn"R'RPn Lolie thousand. The irross-population of UlVir IJltiyiUDDLU dthe citJes romprehended was 11,95S,2.1 in 3890 and 21,R00,031 in 1000. ' The entire signiflcance of these figures can be properly "weighd only when the statistics for .the individual cities are considered in connection with known conditions of local improvement in sani tation and health regulations, factors which are not of a statistical nature and which were not developed by the inqui ries in the schedules. The decrease In the general death rate and in the rates due to diseases most ficquent in the early years of life on one hand, and the increase in the rates due to those diseases occurring generally at advanced ages, on the other, mean al so increase in longevity. The average age at death in 1890 was 31,1 years, in 1900 it was 35.2 years. The total number of deaths within the United States during the census year 1900 was 1,039,004. The total pop ulation was 7G,0Sv,94. In 1890 there were 841,419 deaths and the population was 02,947,714. In the registration areas of the United States with a population of , 28.807,209 in 1900, the total deaths were 512,009 at the rate of 17.8 per thousand of pop ulation. In the non-registration areas, the deaths were 520,425 in a population, nf 47,278,525. In 1890 the registration areas with a population of 19.059.714, showed a total of 380,212 deaths, a rate of 19.0. The population of the non-registration area was then 43,28S,274, and the total deaths 455.207. : Tliree fctrlkera Arretd Pittsburg, Aug. 21 Three carloads of non-union tin plate workers are report ed to be on the way, to Pittsburg to operate the Star tin plate works.

Despite the fact that the British authorities have con tended that the Boer invaders have been practically driven out of Cape Colony, there, have been two serious night at tacks on the block houses in the vicinity of .Naauwpoort. , . , When the burghers made their first assault they were easily repulsed, and it is not believed that, heavy looses were sustained on either side, hut subsequently they made an attack with Letters men in the lead, and the fighting was des perate. The second battle was about five miles north of Naanwnoo -t and the block houses received a veritable bantism of tire. The Boers advanced boldly .aim niungeu into the fray with a determination that would have meant victory nal not tne rmiibii troonn lelvared so well. ' It is probable that the day was saven for the king's men by the arrival of several armored trains. These, fitted with Maxim guns, reached the scone in good time, and they hrought large re inforcements of infantry wincn were poured into the field and turned the tide against the burgher army. The trains were equipped with a num ber of strong searchlights, and these aided the British materially in making the attack on their opponents. 1 he power ful rays of light were trained on the burghers and flashed over the rugged hills where thk Boens had token cover While the lights revealed the burghers the Maxims and rifles poured in showers of ammunition, and many lurking fight ers were wounded or killed. The fight became so hot that the attacking party could no longer stand it, and Lotter's men were finally forced to retrent. Although no account of the losses has yet been received, it is believed that large numbers of Boers met death and that the British had many wounded dur ing the early hours of the battle. , i Indignation iuany imngs you rear nnont your stomach cannot be true. If jou have had indigestion or oyspepsia for yea re it is natural to believe that the stomach itself is diseased. It is only the func tions of the stomach that are impaired This is the whole trouble in-a vast ma jority of cases and the proof can be had by trying Dr. Harter' Iron' Tonic. Your stomach has many things to do, and failure to do any one of .hem leads to imperfect digestion. The stomach pets it nutriment and its digestive fluids from the blood. If the blood is imnui-e or lacks the right proportion of strength- proaucing iron, the whole body suffers from a kind or breaking-down Drocess To restore health you must start at the source of life itself the blood and through that vital fluid huud up the stom ach and other vital organs. ur. iiarier s iron ionic has cured thousands of cases of indigestion iand dyspepsia every year lor the past forty uve years. 11 as tne oue remeay you can take with certainty of immediate improvement and a sure cure. It is prepared with scientific accuracy and many eminent physicians prescribe it constantly, t aithful use of it will enable you to digest your food as per fectly as you ever have.

C, SPECIAL RATES FOR AUGUST. , The management of tho Atlantic Hotel, recogniz Washington. Aug. 21.-F. W. Hackett, acting secretary of the navy, will take some action immediately upon the re quest of Rear Admiral Schley s counsel that Rear Admiral Howison be asked to sav whether he was correctly reported ia an alleged interview regarding the induct of Rear Admiral Schley. Just what this action will be Mr. Hackett todav declined to say. There are indi cations, however, that the Navy Depart ment will not call upon Rear Admiral Howison for any explanation, but will refer the letter to the court of inquiry. It is said that the communication from Admiral Schley regarding the alleged Interview is practically a challenge of Admiral Howison as a member or tne court; that a challenge does not mean a demand that a member be removed, but may consist of a questioning of the fitness of a member of the court to take part in the proceedings. The practice of the Navy Department in courts of inquiry has always been that challenges are not made until the court convenes. When the court opens, one of the first Questions asked is whether there is any objection to the formation or tne court This. It Is said, is the time for any oo jection, and it is said at the Navy De- partmeait that it is very lmprooaoie tnat Mr. Hackett will at this time entertain any challenge of Admiral Howison in opposition to the usual course followed in the naval, courts or. inquiry. If this view is entertained by Mr Hackett it is supposed that he will hold first, that Admiral Schley's letter con stitutes a questioning of Admiral Howi- son fatness to sit upon the court, and is therefore a challenge, and, being in the nature of a challenge, it is not in ordeT for the Navy Department to act upon it. Following this Oine of reasonin?. Mr, Hackett will probably notify Admiral Schley that his letter will be forwarded to the court of inquiry for its action. Admiral fcchley and bis counsel, Judge Jere M"; Wilson, worked steadily on the case to be presented to the court of inquiry at the Shoreham this morning. Admiral Schley is now waiting for the settlement of the matter concerning Ad miral Howison'is alleged interview con cerning his conduct, to which Admiral Schley has called the attention of the Jxavy Department.
