FOREIGN-BORN SUSCEPTIBLE from cancer, while in Ireland it is one in fifteen, whereas, among the Chicago and Illinois born dying in Chicago, aged 40 years and over, there is only one death in 72 from cancer. The death-rate among the foreign-born from cancer in Chicago is rapidly in creasing. The German and Irish show the highest death-rate from cancer in the world, nearly 300 per cent higher than in their native countries. The Italian and Chinese maintain the lowest death-rate of all from cancer as is shown in their own countries. Concerning bis researches, Dr, says: "My statistical investigations in Eur ope, Great Britain and the United State of America, fully corroborate my earlier Australian observations. The increase of cancer and its death-rate in te Uuit- ',ed States, particularly among the for-Jeign-born inhabitants, i alarming, the J mortality of the foreign-born being far rtnn im c i n- r' -in excess of the death-date of the na- CHIGAGO, Sept. 2a.

"A study wa made of the deaths from cancer in the fifteen sanitary divi-ions of the city of Chicago as well as in the public institutions and es- Adains ! pecial attention was given to the relation to the poulation, nativity, occupation, ex, age, race, diet, and their sanitary, hygenic, social and economic condition4, the idea being to shed some light on the abnormally high death-rate of some nationalities in Chicago, the low death rate of other, and the comparitive im munity of Illinois and eancer by Dr. G. Cooke Adams, of Lon ion and formerly of Australia, just made public through the department of health. Dr. Adams has proved conclu sively that health plays a most im portant factor in the increase of the dis ease and its death-rate. The increase from cancer in Chicago from 1800 to 1905 was 232 per cent; in I860, 1 in each 104 deaths was due to eancer, and in l!)05,it had increased to 1 death in every 23. The results show that the increase is due to the foreign born inhabitants as the native Chicago horn show the lowest death-rate in the world. During the last seven years, of 58,835 deaths among the Chicago born from all causes there were only 178 deaths due to caliper. During the same period there tality. The increase of cancer mortal ity may be demonstated by a study of the vital statistics of any large Ameri can city. The tables of Chicago giving the following results: 'In Chicago, from 1850 to 1806 there was an increase in the cancer death rate of 680 per cent; while from 1860 to 1895, the increase was 232 per cent In 1856, but one in each ,1,000 deaths was from cancer; in i860 'this had in creased to one in 164; in 1905 it was 1 in 23 deaths, while in 1900, 1 death in every 21.8 was Jur'to this disease. "The same tables show plainly the ter rible mortality among the foreign-born resident of Chicago, particularly among the Germans, Irish, Scandinavians and Slavonians. The eancer death-rate among the Irish and German residents of Chicago is the highest in the world, lence of that disease in their native countries, is due to the increased con sumption of animal foods, particularly those derived from diseased animal." It will be noticed that Dr. Adams' conclusions in no way reflect upon the quality of the meats prepared at the Chicago Stif k Yard for the export trade. . jj How He Won His Spurs and His Wife Attack Of Dianhoea Cured By One D M Of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera ind Diarrhoea Remedy.

Lame Back. This is an ailment for which Cham berlain's Pain Balm has proven especial ly valuable. In almost every instance it affords prompt and permanent relief. Mr. Luke LaGrange of Orange, Mich., says of it i "After using a plaster and other remedies for three weeks for a bad lame back, I purchased a bottle of Chamberlain's Pain Balm, and two ap plications effected a cure."

Illldretu, Ills wife uiid daughter; Cnp tain Kollcy, his wife niul two children; Cnptiilit Nye and McuttMinnt Culprniin, started to transfer from ono post to another. , There was no trnnnportntlon availa ble, except nu nruiy wagon drown by mules.

The conunnn dant proposed to send a small escort but the officers, who were young, agreed that the four of them, besides two drivers, a cook and a wagon full of fighting material, bIiouIu sutllce. No guard would have befit tlioiiKht of had not an Indian outbreak been considered Imminent During the trip Nye was obliged to witness the constant devotion of Chip man to Marcla Ulldreth, which was excruciating since Nye had long worshiped her In secret Rut when the party had half finished the Journey something occurred that fixed the at tention of all on a common danger. Coming to un eminence on one of the foothills, n party of 200 Indians was seen below, and from tliclr appearance and actions It was evident that tho expected outbreak had occurred. Tboy caught sight of the wagon and raised a warwhoop. Major Hildreth, tbo ranking officer, possibly because he saw certain death staring Lis wife and daughter in the face, collapsed. Nye cast his eye o'vor the ground, looking for a place to raako somo show of defense. Below was a wooded volley. Suddenly a light came to tho soldier's eye, the light of genius for war. Ho began to give orders ns If be were commanding his own troops, no took the wagons down Into the val ley. Of bin six men he posted two on one flank, two on the other, while with the other two he proposed to hold the center. Each flank was protected by a rocky facade, while the' center, through which ran a creek, was comparatively narrow. The wagons, with their con tents, and the women and children were stationed behind a rock In the rear, Nye briefly explained his plan of defense.. Marcla Ulldreth Insisted on taking a rifle at the front but Nye told her that she could be of more service as his aid-de-camp, transmitting or dejs, Information and ammunition. . Nye Judged that the Tmlliihs, having seen the waiTons, would consider them part of a train. Army trains are al ways furnished with a gunrd, as the redskins well knew. As to the strength of this guard they were Igno rout LIU plan was to' make them think by ncattcrlfig his force that It was considerable. They advanced cau tiously agnlnst hi center, looking out for an ambush, and received a quick scattered Are from three rifles. Sev eral of the advancing party fell. Then they drew off to make a detour to the right but there they received another volley. A party sent to tho loft met with a similar reception. Meanwhile the hopes of the party rf standing off their enemies for at least some time grew stronger. The excel lence of Nye's plan had become appar ent. The party had ample ammunition and provisions, and the mountain stream afforded water. What they dreaded was either a rush of all the Indians together or that they would make a wido detour, got in the whites' rear and discover tholr weakness. As somo counteraction for this latter dan ger Marcla Hildreth volunteered to go far on the right and make a masked defense. Site took her mother with her, and Mrs. Kelley and her f on rteen-y ear old son wont to tho left Nye felt a ghost of a hope in this move, for ho was suro that the In dians would try for tils rear. He was right. A small party of bucks went around to tlie right Tboy were dis covered by Marcla nildretn, and two rifle shots rang out from hor position. The Indians, convinced that their ene mies were sulllclently strong to pro tect every weak point now sat down for a regular siege. Martin Illllireth was dovoted to her wounded lover during the rest of the Journey and nursed him till bli death. It is possible that the bullet that kill ed him avoided complications or pos sibly prevented his betrothed from marrying tho wrong man. It is cer tainly a dangerous thing for a woman engaged to a man to soe another sur pass him by a display of such sterling qualities, such fitness for command as wos displayed by Nyo, besides saving her life and tho lives of all the party. At any rate, tho funeral volley bad scarcely been , fired over Chlpman's grave before thpre was a singular warmth in her treatment of Nye, and barely a year elapsed bofcre she bo eame the lattor's wife.
