NECROnS* LIVES SHORTER . According to a recent reloa-e o the Bureau of Census, colored pep pie do not live as long as whit people, dying faster. It seem that the first year of life is tli period where the greatest . num ber of Negroes die in compariso with the whites. ' Out?of 1<H> <><? Negro male babies?bom?aftv91468 as compared . with . 93.76 white male babie- will cmplet the first year of life and enter o: the second; 89.755 .will begin th. third year as compaued-with 92.8", white babies and 88.621 whitewill reach the age of 21.

The death.rate in the vean- i high for both races, but that o Negroes flar exceed that of th< whitrts.

The bulletin does not go into tin reason for the discrepancy between the races, though that would be ainteresting a- > the figures them-: selves. Of ha.nd, vV could ib* readily concluded that the economic conditions, more than anything else, account for the great difference, not overlooking the fact that ignorance is a powerful contributing factor. If that he the case, then improvement of Negro life will result in his living longer and dving slower. COF'E NEWS The people around Cope are making many changes for this year.
