The race problem in the south seems des- tined to be settled according to natural Jawa tnless something.is done, and done soon, to save the negro from the results of his*owr vices andaegiect of elementary hygienic laws. The testimony of those who have studied this subject is all but unanimous., and it has received additional confirmation through the investigations of Dr. R. H. Johnson of Brunswick, Ga., him- self a colored physician. The figures which he has gathered from a study of the vital statistics of hearly threé hundred towns in the southern states. show that the death rate of negroes is double that of whites in the'saine GCommiunittéS, and not only this, but the.birth rate is also smaller than among the colored than among the white popuiation.... Furthermore, the day of the stalwart negro is passing, if not already gone-and the members of the younger generation of the race make a poor~showhre: as-regards their size and physical constitution, when compared with their ‘grandfathers ‘ana ° grandmothers. Dr. Johnson attributes this degeneracy of his race—rightly,’? we believe—to the care- lessness, want of forethought and dissipa- tion “so tmfortunately” ¢haracteristic of a large portion.of the colored population in the south cince the’ civil war. “In ante- bellum days,” says Pr.,Jobnson, “the ne- gro seemed to be immune to consumption, and many great al writers and teach- ers boast of never having seen such among the negrpes. Enforced temperate living and “sanitary precautions’ made the black Man 4 physical giant, but the giants are disappearing, and in their places is com- ing on <a race-of-smaller stature and de- creased vitality. In the days Of slavery"the colored man ‘was property and was looked after with all the ‘care: whitch meh=are accustomed to give to the safe keeping of their posses- sions.. Their health ¢arefully attended to by the plantation physician, they were decently housed, well fed, forced to live temperdately, and to go to bed in proper season. But the fortunes of war, while giving them liberty,.gave them also li- cense to indulge in all the enervating and physically degrading vices of the higher race at a time when they had not learned the necessity, of; seif-westraint and of re- gard for the laws of health. That thisJs the true reason of the col- ored man’s physical deterioration is further shown by what Surgeon General. Sternberg has to say, in his recently issued. annual report concerning the health of the col- ored soldiers. “Great improvement,” he ys, “has taken place in the past few years in the sanitary condition of the col- ored troops. The white troops have partic- ipated in the improvement, although their rates have not fallen so rapidly as those of the colored men. During the past year the total hospital admission rate for all causes among the colored troops was S68.88 per 1,000 of strength, compared with 1,132.49, among ,the whites, and as compared with 915.88 among themselves in the previous year, and with 1,368.64, their own annual average for the previous dec- ade, the annual average of the white troops having been 1,284.95.

The colored soldier lost 9.42 days from disability during the year; the white soldier, 12.71, and the average time of treatment of each case was, among the colored troops, 10.84 days; among the white, 11.22 days. ‘The causes of disability from which the colored men suffered less than the white troops were malarial fevers, venereal diseases, alcoholism, diarrheca and injuries; those from which they suffer- ed more were neuralgia, rheumatism and myalgia, tonsilitis, colic and constipation, conjunctivitis and pneumonia.” ‘These figures contain much to encourage those who have the future of our colored brothers at heart and who have looked with sorrow upon their downward progress since the day of their emancipation. The figures show, indeed, that the race is ca- pable of regeneration, since even now its members living under the sanitary and moral restraint of army discipline are found to be superior to their white com- rades living under the same conditions. The proof exists that the colored race ma: yet be brought back to its former high sanitary condition, but the problem re- rains how to lift itupfrom the abyss of misery and how to avert its threatened ex- tinction. Here is a task for the colored members of our profession, which they can accomplish far better than their white confreres and which calls for their best thought and self-sacrificing devotion. see Ancients Valued Gold, From Modern Machinery. Gold was probably the first metal ob- served and collected, because of the in- stinctive understanding of its intrinsic value. About “it superstitions grew; re- ligious and ceremonious rites and strange crimes were committed for its possession in the days when it was believed that it was of such stuff that the sun Itself was made and the halls of Valhalla paved.

Less than twen- ty years ago the old mines of Nubia, so graphically described by Diodorus, were de- discovered on the shores of the Red sea, together with a line of ancient wells across the desert; the ‘underground workings where ore veins had been followed with the pick, the rude cupelling furnaces for assaying, picks, oil lamps, stone mills, mortars and pestles, inclined warming tables of stone, crucibles and retorting furnaces of burned tile, by which the en- tire process can be traced. Here slaves ard hapless prisoners of war exchanged their life blood for glitter- ing dust to fill the treasuries of their cap- tors. In India and Asia Minor the pow- dered ore was washed down over smooth, sloping rocks and caught gold in the fleeces of sheepskins sunk in the stream. It was literally a golden fleece that. Jason brought back from the Caucasus. Further north and following the eastern foothills of Mount Ararat to the southern slope of the Ural mountains in Russian Siberia, where last year millions were taken out of the old mines, the ancient Scythians broke up rock and gravel with copper implements, scraped out the glittering dust and nuggets with the fangs of wild boars and carried their gains away in bags of leather. —__+e+_____ Perverted School Methods, From the Chaatanquan. In the nineteenth ward of Chicago, the poorest working-class district in the city, the girls in the seventh grade of the public schools spent, last winter, more time upon commercial arithmetic than upon any other two stadies. Their work would have been valuable, perhaps, for bank clerks actually engaged in the business and fitting them- selves fcr positions as cashiers of Sat iy institutions. It was strictly teehnical wor! the only technical education offered these daughters of Italian, Polish, Russian and Bohemian peasant immigrants.

From the Charleston News and Courier. Not many days ago a party of ladies and }sentlemen were paying .a .visit..tq Long Island, a spot now coming prominently into public view on account of the pro< posed electric line, hotels, &c. In the party was a well-known Charleston lady, and in the course of a promenade along the splen- did beach she spied what seemed to be an ugly piece of wreckage, just at the low- water mark’ cn the sand. Going to it, she struck it .with her parasol and remarked that it seemed toybe apart of a ship. Others In the party Went to look at it, and one, getting a shovel from the workmen then en the island, began to dig a little way down into the sand? ~The result was most surprising! It took but a few minutes to see that the expored timbers was the keelSof@ Jarge vesset-ané-that the hull appeared to be practically intact. It was lying ‘bottom up, and the sand had buried it completely, with the exceptton. of the _keel, which was only visible at dead low water. iene Curiosity prompted the owners of the island to investigate the wreck a litle further, and. the “éevelopments were still more Interesting. The sand was cleared away for some distance along the hull of the ship, and then with axes and saws a hole was cut into it. This was no easy task, for the ship was found to be planked inside and out and the bottom was hard and tough; besides this the ribs, or “knees,” were so close together they al- most constituted a solid wall in them- selves. The interior was reached, however, and it was seen that the cargo consisted of yellow pine lumber. It had been per- fectly preserved and was in better conui- tion than when placed on board the ill- fated ship, for it is seasoned better than any kila-could do it. With the workmen employed on the island some half dozen or so of pleces were taken out of the ship, and ther: the find.ng of timber 7 by 17 inches and 50 to 60 feet long made it ap- rarent that more than “man power” would be required to unload the ship that has teen so long on its way to a market. But the glimpse that can now be had: of the cargo convinces the owner that the shib contains some two hundred thousand feet of fine yellow pipe lumber, and steps are being taken to gef i valuable stuff out of the.wreck. Mr. A}\§. Emerson has con- tracted with the of Of thé island to get this cargo out will have derricks and a large force of Qhén over there during the preseat week. \ , * Of course there is no telling what else anay be found in the ship-that was buried in the sand of Lofft; Island, but the lum- ber may be only 2 of the cargo—there may be treasure 4o1 in the upper part of the ship, which is now-oa.the bottom of the sand; but, again, there- may only ke the bones “poor seamen or the ordiuary chests % ks of the ordinary coasting schooner: “the riame of the ship and the port <from which she sailed may ba discovergd, and If $o the datés will surely be of long: ‘No one remembers it Buried in the the loss of a ship‘! ibis “on ‘the coast of Carolina, and the and make of the hull that lies bi the sand is of pat- tern and plan forgotten.
