INFANT MORALITY IN RUSSIA
The Odessa correspondent of The Stan dard writes :-
It is, I believe, a pathologi
the more uncivilised a people,
that greater
is its infant mortality. Applying this to the Russians there can be no doubt what- ever that
they stand vory low in the scale of European civilisation, but in this coun try, and in this particular respect one must, of course, draw a somewhat broad line bo tween the clasaca and the masses. The campaign now being inuu urated against the frightful infantile mortality has brought forth some startling and well-authenticated data. Taking the whole of the Empire in Europe it is alleged that close upon fifty per cent, of the children die under the age The average in Norway, w near Northern neighbour of Russia, is- of five years ten, five per cent; in Sweden, thirteen, two cent.; in England, fourteen, nine per cent.. &c. Ordinary infantile ail ments, thought little of in Western
ildh
tries, prove fatal in Russia for the want of proper care and treatment and of medical attendance. It is to be remember. ed, too, that the Russian peasant has, as të rule, no faith whatever in doctors, prefers old fashioned domestic remedies, and is imbued with a fatalistic beliof little less strongly marked than the Kismet of the The poverty of simple Mohammedan.

CHINESE IN THE PHILIPPINES.
A Protest to Congress.
In the Chinese Immigration Act which has just been passed by the Philippine Commission, we think (says the Manila Times) the Chinese merchants of the city have good ground for complaint. It is certain that if a similar law were passed compelling all Amoricans and Europeans to employ none but Filipinos in their business general indignation would be aroused and a demand made for the repeal And or modification of the enactment. with the Chinese merchants the necessity of having clerks of their own nationality is much stronger than with other peoples. They are essentially a peculiar people; their customs, religion, and private life are markedly different from those of other

nations; and as they are used in most ins. THE CHINA LIGHT & POWER
tances to make their clerks members of the
household or family, it can be seen what, a violent, radical, and distasteful departure will be thrust upon them if the present law is maintained and enforced.
As a general thing we are inclined to sympathize with the Chinese in thesu islands in their efforts to secure a livelihood in the face of unfair discriminations by means of legal enactments. They cou- tribute much to the welfare of the com- munity and the prosperity of the country, and it would scem that we ought to encourage rather than discourage them in the operation of their business,

YELLOW FEVER.
Danger of Introduction into Hongkong.
At the Epidemiological Society on Feb. 25th, Dr Patrick Manson, C. & G., F. R. S., LL.D., read a paper on the danger of in troducing yellow fever to the Asiatic coun- tries on the Pacific littoral, when the Cen- tral American Canal permits of direct steamship traffic between the West Indies and the Asiatic continent.
to
man.
Dr Manson pointed out that by this route ships would travel along a track which would be wholly between the tropics, and whilst the temperature would prove favourable to the prevalence of yol low fever during the voyage, it would also not be inimical to the Stegomyin fasciata, the mosquito by which yellow fever is conveyed
Recent researches have shown that the Stegomyin is capable of living and of conveying in fection for some fifty or sixty days, and as the voyage between Panama and, say, Manila and Hongkong would occupy not more than thirty days at most, the danger of introducing yellow fever into Asia by this channel is no fanciful theory, but a ques- tion of practical hygiene. It is needless to point out the magnitude of such a possible Calamity, and the urgency of inducing the governments concerned to deal with the question in a practical manner.
Dr. Nuttall, of
of Commerce, 1902, created a record; our imports and exports amounting to £812,000,000, which makes an increase of £10,000,000 on the previous year. An interesting point brought out was the fact that the consumption of the 'conforts' of life among the poor was far greater, despite the fact that they now work much shorter hours, and that rents in densely populated centres are much higher. If this does not speak volumes for the general prosperity of Great Britain, perhaps the statement that one penny in the income tax now produced twice as much as it did will convince sceptics.
There are many points of difference between the late Dr Parker and his suc cessor at the City Temple, and the Rev. R. J. Campbell, who hails from Brighton, is almost certain to modify the puritani- cal services at this noted place of wor ship, and to invest them with the grace surrounding Anglican traditions. Mr Campbell is a staunch Free Churchman, but he was educated at Christ Church, where he was instilled with a love of
pro
certain Anglicanisms which he will bably retain all his life. Since 1895,
when he joined the Congregational mín istry, he has been spoken of as a keen Dr. Manson's views were endorsed by and intensely enthusiastic teacher of the

From information gathered later in the day, it appears that Mrs Dalian is in the habit of keeping her business books, money, and jewellery in a large Milner safe in the office. This safe has two locks, and yesterday evening Mrs Dallan want to it to remove some jewellery she wished to wear during the evening. She locked the safe up by one lock only, and thought nothing more about the matter.
During the night, she heard her dogs bark, but attached no importance to it; but this morning she went downstairs to put Lord Stanley, replying to Mr Hobhouse. back the jewellery which she had been in reference to the complaint mentioned on wearing, and on going to the safe sho found March 18th, amely, that the recruits for it unlocked.
