THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN
Deaths among the civil population of
the United States from the influenza
and pneumonia epidemic amounted to
mor® than double the number of Amer
ican casualties in France, including the
killed, wounded, missing and deaths
from influenza, reports authorized Fri
day by the Census Bureau indiacte.
Hooper Alexander, United States Dis
trict Attorney, who made public the
Government figures I"r!da?', points to
the record as evidence of the terrific
character of the epidemic and to the
wonderfu! medical organization of the|
army, His statement follows: |
“While the statistics of casualties
in the war are not complete they have
been unofficially estimated at iOO.OOO.
This includes death in battle, deaths
resulting from wounds and accident, and
all other causes, including disease. Tt
also includes wounds fro mwhich re
covery has been made, and captures and
missing. In fact, it include severy form
of casualty to the 2,000,000 men who
went to BHurope. Of these it is thought
that the loss of life from all causes,
including disease, will be not more than
45,000,
“In 46 American cities having a com
bined population estimated at 23,000,000,
or approximately one-fifth of the entire
population, including those in the army,
the deaths from September 8 to No
vember 9 from influenza and pneumonia
amounted to 82,306. During the same
period in normal times the deaths in
these same cities from influenza and
pneumonia amount to approximately
4,000, In other words, available statis
tics for a part of the population of this
country, amounting to about one-fifth
thereof, indicate in the brief period
named that there were 7800 deaths in
the United States from the epidemic.
“The figures given for the epidemic
indicate that the total number of deaths
in the ecivil population from the epi
demic have thus far amounted to per
haps mare than a quarter of a million:
(‘«*rmin]_\'){as much as 200000,
~ “In other words, the deaths among
the civil population of the United States
from the epidemic of infleunpza have
probably amounted to mor ethan double
' the number of casualties in the expedi
tionary forces, including in the latter
killed, wounded and missing, and those
who died from disease, including influen
za."

AMERICUS, Nov. 22.—Having ac

Of All Children, Will
Sing Twice inAtlanta
Kitty Cheatham, the idol of all
children who have heard her sing
and famous all over Rurope and
America for her nursery songs of
the Old South and of foreign lands,
is to open the Series Intime of the
Music Study Club at Egleston Me
morial Hall Friday evening. The
program will begin at 8:30 o'clock.
Miss Cheatham reached Atlanta
F‘x'lda)"mornlng and was warmly
greeted by many of her old friends
in this city; for the daughter gs
General Cheatham, of Tennessee, is
known and loved by many Atlan
tans. She appeared in this city in
recital several years ago at the be
ginning of the career which later
has become the most notable of its
kind in the world of musie.
At least half of her numbers have
either been written expressly for
her or else arranged for her. It
has been said that whenever a
composer has created anything in
musi¢ that is espocially designed
for children, he takes it to Miss
Cheatham. It is a fact that when
Humperdinck, the composer, visit
ed America several years ago at
the initial performance of “Konigs
kinder” his only public appearance
was made as accompanist to Miss
Cheatham when she sang a group
of his songs.
