THE NATION'S OPEN HEART AND
HAND.
The great heart of the American
people never falls to respond to the
cry of distress or the appeal for suc
cor. When disaster sweeps over the
lsnd, or when pestilence or devasta
tion lays heavy hand upon Borne com
munity or section, the well springs of
sympathy are opened wide, purse
strings are unbound, and the strong
arm of a nation able and willing to
carry relief where needed Is stretohed
forth In the name of humanity.
In a few days millions of dollars
have been subscribed by the people of
the United StnteB for the relief of the
Btrlcken metropolis of the Pacific
slope. The magnificent response of
those to whom appeal has been made
evidences a realization of the Immens
ity of the disaster; but had tile dlsas-,
ter been thrice as appalling, the re
sponse of the people would have been
thrice as generous.
Ours Is tho richest nation on the
face of the earth, and It Is often
charged that a spirit of commercial
ism runs rampant in all her affairs,
but the time has never been and will
never bo when a deaf ear will be
turned to the cry of the afflicted or re
sponse refused to the appeal pf those
In distress. It Is a reassuring sign,
this ever-readlnesB of the people, re
gardless of class, condition or environ
ment, to share that which they have
with thOBO who liavo not. It glveB the
Uc to many of the charges that are
flippantly made agalnBt the foremoBt
nation of tho earth.

THE HUMAN LIFE AVERAGE.
That modern conditions haye, on the
whole, proven favorable to tho pro
longation of human life Is now quite
generally accepted as a fact susceptl
ble of proof. Hygienic Improvements,
tho systematic organization for the
care of the poor and tho suffering, the
skill of the surgeon, and the decrease
In the hours of labor, have combined
to extend the period of existence for
the average man and woman. This Is
shown by the statistics of Insurance
companies covering half a century.
The actuaries nre men of the very
highest professional ability, and their
conclusions nre bnsed, not upon llm
Rod observation ns Is often the esse
where Important deductions are drawn
from statistics, but upon a vnst ac
cumulation of Insurance data and up
on n careful nnnlysls of the census.
Hence their conclusions may be ac
cepted ns reliable and accurate.
The Insurance tables show that the
Increase of the maximum of the ex
pectation of life has risen from 45.1 to
55.4 years for men, and 48.6 to 57.8
years for women. To take the United
States, whereas in 1840 the annual
rate of mortality for nien or all ages
wns 23 per 1,000, In 1900 It had fallen
to 19 per 1,000, while for women It
had fallen In the same period from 22
to 17 per 1,000.
The distinct decrease In mortality
ns the nineteenth century progressed
wns so symmetrical ns to Indicate a
settled and permanent tendency. The
curious fnct wns brought out that the
most marked Improvement Is shown
In the early years of life. From 4
years of ago up to 34 this Improvement
Is so steady thnt It must be regnrded
ns the direct result of tho betterment
of medical science; while the same
fnct holds true of female qiortality for
a decade longer, or up to the age of
44.
After this age there nre periods
through which the ratios are at about
the same level, and In the latter
epochs of life there Is an evidence of

noted that at the beginning of the
nineteenth century the terrible compe
tition In the Industrial world lowered

United States supremo court will be]
suspended when the bill reportod to
the house by the judiciary commltee
shall have been enacted. The practice
has been to apply to a federal court
for a writ of habeas corpus on the al
leged ground that the prisoner, us
ually a murderer condemned to death
by the highest tribunal of his state, Is
restrained of bis liberty in violation of
the constitution. Generally the petl-
tton for the writ contains no specific
ground for the issue of the writ, and
the application Is refused as h matter
of course. But the right of appeal
from the decision denying the writ Is
absolute as the law now stands, with
the result that the execution of the
state law Is Indefinitely postponed.
The attention of the Judiciary commit
tee was called to a cose wherein the
life of an assassin was prolonged more
tljan four years by a succession of
factious appeals of this character. It
Is proposed to amend the law so that
no appeal of the character Indicated
can be taken unless a justice of the
supreme court shall certify that there
