MISSOURI NEGRO DYING OUT.
Death Rate Is Somowliat Greater
Than Birth Rate Now.
Jefferson City, Mo. The report of
Frank B. Hiller, state registrar, and
secretary of the state board of health.
shows there were 6275 births In Mis
souri in February and 4062 deathsH
The birth rate was nineteen to the
thousand population, while the . death
rate was only 12 a thousand.
The statistics shows that ninety
more negroes died in February than-
were born, although thecomptete list
of births may not have been forward
ed. This adds strength to the belief that
the negroes of Missouri are decreasing
steadily and that this has been going
on for the last decade. William P.
Evans, state superintendent of public
schools in his annual report, com
ments on the fact that the number of
negro children of school age has been
decreasing In the last ten years.
Tuberculosis shows a heavier mor
tality among negroe than whites. Of
all deaths which occurred among
them 13.21 per cent were from tuber
culosis, while the average for the state
for this disease Is but 10.09 per cent
Kansas City reported 433 births and
376 deaths for February.

years old, 859 Buckingham place, was
shot In the right leg while he and
three companions were trying to es

Lynge said that bottles of milk
have been disappearing from the front
doorway of his home for more than a
month, and that he decided to lay in
wait for the thieves. At 5:30 o'clock
he saw Swanson and Holt and two
others attempt to st-fil two bottles of
milk from the door; they fled when
he surprised them.
Lynge gave chase-' and fired four
shots In the direction of the boys, one
of the bullets passing through the
fleshy part of Swanson's leg. After
