REMARKABLE EXCESS OF BIRTHS 



Whatever other dangers may threaten 

 the Republic of Culia, race suicide is not 

 among them, says the Boston (Mass.) 

 Traiiscrift. The Cuban government has 

 recently issued a pamphlet report on the 

 general conditions of the republic, in which 

 it is stated that, while there were 3:>,194 

 deaths in Culja last year, there were 74,286 

 births. This is indeed a remarkable excess 

 of births over deaths, and points to a won- 

 derful natural increase of Cuba's popula- 

 tion if the rate is sustained.
