n. Y. Times.l
Many cities in the United States
have failed to fulfill the expectations
Of their inhabitants when tho census
returns have been made public. A
census by local officials, interested in
making a good figure for their own
city, or by the compilers of local
guide books, is wholly Enthusiastically.
But the citizen naturally cliugs to the
highest estimate of the population of
the metropolis of which he is so
proud. He refuses to give in to the
claim OF some rival neighbor. For
this reason, there has .been great
disappointment in many quarters.
There has always been what seemed
an exaggerated notion of the popula-
ton OF San Francisco, for example,
and with true occidental fervor Of i'm
agination, the people of that famous
city have reposed comfortably in the
belief that they were a population of
at least 100000, including the Chinese.
This was a modest estimate, and many
set the figures yet higher. The r%elent-
less census cuts downtbis sum to 233.-
060. which is represented to be the
exact population of the city, inelud-
ing the Chinese. But, to the great
establishment Of everybody, the Chi.
nese of San Francisco, instead ofnum-
bering 10000 and more, as usually
claimed by the Chinaphobists. is
Only 20,549. This is a tremendous
falling off in the yellow population Of
the city. 1t wholly upsets the calcu.
lations Of the anti. Chinese party,
which has perpetually howled death
and destruction to the Asiatic
hordes. There is something ludicrous
now in the lamentations which the
patio stricken 2l2,5O0 whites have ut.
teroa their being overwhelmed by
the usrdes''-2O,549 all told.

SUNDAY SPORTS.
a Seven-DOlIar Foot Race.

During the warmest part of yester-
day a lively foot race, with close re-
suits, came off between Deputy Coro-
ner G. L. Smith and the leading in
quest magistrate, Esquire Spellman,
Word came up town that q man had
been accidentally drowned on the
sand bar opposite the city, and that
the lifeless remains we're at that time
landing on this side, having been
brought across in a small boat. The
news reached Deputy Coroner Smith,
at his Office, on Madison below Main,
before the shower, aud almost at the
same time Esquire Spellman got word
of it at his Office, on Adams street.
They both started for the scene with
in a few seconds Of each other, the
esquire s%trolling down Adams street
to the paved slope Of the landing and
Mr.. Smith taking across the bluff
down Court or Monroe streets. As
the Adams street squire deserted the
other he started in a trot. This
caused Mr.. Smith to quicken his pace,
and those who witnessed the contest
described it as beautiful. By the
time they reached the edge of the wa
ter where the object of interest lay,
both were in a high pe~rspiration, but
Mr.. Smith, having arrived ahead, held
the inquest. Fees and perquisites
somewhere about seven dollars.
