The Throne Decided to Submit the Matter to a National Con ference and to Abide by the Kosult. Peking, China, Dec. 29. The throne has agreed to Premier Yuan Shi Kai's suggestion to refer lh question of the future government of China to a nat ional conference to abide by its decis ion whatever it may bp. The Dowager Empress, Premier Yuan Shi Kai, and the Mancnu princes of the imperial clan debated throdghojt the entire morning the scheme for calling together a convention of delegates from all parts of the empire to decide on the form of government which shall prtvail in future in China. Prince Ching, former premier and minister of foreign affairs, urged the acceptance of the proposal. Prince Yu Lang, member of the Grand Council, and Prince Tsai Tao, former minister of war and brother of the present prince regent, on the other hand, Strenuously opposed the scheme. Those among the Manchu princes present who were in favor of the ac ceptance of the proposition, finally pre vailed, and the decision was reached to leave the settlement of the future form of the government in the hands of the delegates selected by the ration. The Cabinet has been instructed to draw up the regulations which shall govern the national convention and to inform the delegates to the peace con ference at Shanghai that the throne is willing to abide by the decision of a representative convention, no matter what form of government it may choose. In view of the activities of the Shang hai revolutionaries, imperial govern ment officials consider it to be doubtful whether the rebels will agree to the long delay inseparable from the calling of a national convention. The action of the throne leaves no room for doubt that the advisers of the regent and the emperor are prepared for abdication should that coune prove to be the only way of settlement. 5.

C When the train reached Kmston a physician boarded the car in which Mrs, Bell and her children were seated and much to the consternation of the many passengers- announced that one of the c nikiren had scarlet fever. Upon the arrival of the train at Goldsboro, the physician informed the health authorities of the condition of affairs and the lady and her children were quarantined in a private car and no one allowed to go near them. Mrs. Bell offered to charter a private car and continue on to her home in South Carolina but the authorities would not allow her to do this. When the hour arrived for the eastbeund train to make its departure her car was attached and was carried on to Beaufort. She remained in the car all during the night, until a message could be sent to her relatives who will arrive this rooming and take her to their home.

Tbe above announcement corning to New Bern, brought with it sorrow to many here. For years Mr. Jack, and his wife, had male New Hern their home for a portion of each year. "Capt." Jack as he was usually de tignated, was a gentleman whos-e friends, were as many as his acq mintanres. Quiet, modest, retiring, Mr. Jack warf u gen tleman of intens feeling and sympathy. His long service upun the wa!er, his varied experience- made him a source of fascinating interest to those who cou'd draw him out to tell of him elf. A few yean ag at the Grade i School he consented afcer great persiusion to tell of some of his experiences and he proved most entertaining. His life in this city, with his large circle of friends was he often sai l the happieit place he ever lives, though his home and nar relatives mado Portsmouth, Va , his home. Thus in New Bern, Mr, Jack was regarded as "homi folks," and in his passing there is felt that Im that com s to those whose loved on a have gone away forev.tr io far at tliis wo'ld goes.

Inquiry Re veals a Startling Increase in the Number of Persons of Unsound Mind. Washington, D. C Dec. 29th. -In sanity In the United States is increas ing twice as fast as the population, ac cording to figures gathered by the Fed eral Government in a special inquiry through the Census Bureau. That is to saj, while the population of the coun try grew 11 per cent, io the five years from 1904 to 1910, the population in in sane asylums rose about 25 per cent. As to the number of cases of insanity not resulting in commitments to hospit! als the census has no data. "Our figures," says Director Pi'rand, afford a striking indication cf the prevalence of insanity, if nit an exact measure df it. It is somew ciat sts tling to reflect that the 187,454 patient con fined in hospitals for the i'lsune make up a population larger than tlmt of the city of Columbus, Ohio." The State which, in proportion o its population, had the largest nun' t of insane reported in institutions "n Jan. 1, 1910, was Massachusetts witu '144.6 per 100,000 population. NewVor! how ever, had almost the same pro; tion, namely, 843.1 per 100,000 popule.i There is no doubt, Mr. Daren that in these states better prov i made for the care of insane in ' tions than in most of the other i The insane confined in inn'.itui any state are by no meant lira clusively from the population state. The institutions in Mu: setts, especially the priva'e ineti receive many insane patients fiv. er New England states, and the i tions in New York simiHy i many patients from outside that The District of Columbia, win outranks both New York mid Massa- cusetts in the proportion of number of insane persons in institution", pn sents conditions more anologous to these of a city than those of a state, and is the location of the government hosnital for the insane, which draws its natients from a much wider area ti.an the Dis trict. Connecticut ranks third, where there are 321'crazy people in institutions for each 100,000 of population. The government figures appear to bear out the new contention thai insan ity is chiefly due to the stress of com petition for existence in the congested industrial centres. "In 89 of the 49 states and territo ries," says Mr. Durand, "the ratio of in sane in institutions to total population waa larger in 1910 than in 1901. Most j of the states in which the ratio was smaller lie west of the Mississippi, the I number including all the Pacific Coast j States and all but three of the mouo- j tain states. This section of the country has undergone a very rapid develop-' ment In recent years, and it is possible that the new population comng from : other sections of the United States rep-, resents a class in which insanity is less prevalent than among the stay-at, homes. But the decrease in th ratio' msy also inllcate that the proviso is j for the care of the insane in ir.ihi'i' inn ; have not kept pace with tbe rapidly in- J creasing population.
