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.

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 In Great Britain It Is noted that at the beginning of the nineteenth century the terrible compe tition In the Industrial world lowered the length of life. 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 1b probable cause. The governor with his colonels will be In evidence at the Georgia Chau tauqua tomorrow". When Lowell Wns Suspended, biography of James Itussell Lowell sr' .
