corpse was recognized as that of a

but no satisfactory conclusion could
be arrived at as to her DEATH The

Dodge City times. [volume] (Dodge City, Kan.) 1876-1892, 1881-02-05

The greatest gain in population, for
obvious reasons. is taking place in the
far West. and when the next census is
ready we shall probably find all of these
States, with one exception, showing a
population exceeding l.000, 900 each,
while Texas will be likely to take its
place among the six most populous
States of the Union. Kansas also prom
Uses TO rival' Massachusetts in the num-
Der OF its inhabitants. Whereas there
are now nineteen States with popua-
ton of over 1000. 600. there are likely
to be at least twenty-six in 1890.
The growth in the population of the
cities of the Union has been great and
significant in the last ten years. We
are gathering a larger proportion OF our
inhabitants in cities than anv other
country. and yet we stil possess vast
areas of unoccupied land. Whereas in
1870 there were thirty-six cities with 4
population of 80. 600 and over, the num-
Der has now increased to sixty-four.
That is, about sixth of our popula-
ton is now crowded together in these
large cities. Fifty years ago. including
all cities OF 5000 inhabitants and over,
the proportion was only one-siNteenth.
This increasing tendency of popula-
ton 10 aggregate in the great cities is
one of the evils of modern civilization.
1t breeds social dangers, with which
our municipal systems are now proving
themselves unable TO cope, and il
makes the question of city government
one of the most serious with which the
people have to deal.-N Y. San.

Our Population-A Comparison with
the Great Nations Of Europe.

The Superintendent of the Census
reports that the population of the
United States is 80, 152.5 $50. When the
returns have been finally corrected some
changes may be made in this total. but
they will probably be slight. Ourpopula-
ton in 1870 was 80, $685. 81. We have,
therefore. gained in the ten years since
then IL .59I. lSS inhabitants. This is an
increase nearly as great as the whole
population fifty years ago.
Compared with the great nations Of
Europe, the United States show a
greater population than any, except
Russia, which contains over 72,O00,0 600
Of inhabitants. Against our 30, l52, 559,
Germany shows 42,727, $50; Austria
Hungary. 1881, 40; France, S6,905.-
7sS; Great Britain and Ireland. "a. l60,-
600, Italy, 27.769, 475; Spain. 16.526.5ll.
The total population OF Europe is given
by the AiHanach de Gotta as 81, 763,-
7l3. Hence we have even now only about
one-sixth as many inhabitants, though
our area and that of Europe as whole
are nearly equal.
The following table gives the first adj
ditions of the returns OF the last census
of the eight States OF largest popula-
ton, compared with the census OF 1870:

A Jews Heroism.

To BE brave enough to face the conse-
quenee of one 5 too hasty anger is not
quite equal to the heroism that restrains
it before hand. but it is next to that.
Reading the following painful story. it
is hard 10 feel more sympathy for the
smiter than for the smitten:
In a village in Hungary there lived
many years ago jew, who gained his
living by carrying goods from place to
place. He was so upright and honest
that il was commonly said of him,
You might fill his wagon with a load
of ducats without securing them in any
way. and not miss a coin" Summer
or winter, rain or fair. he might be seen
driving his horse and well-laden wagon
sometimes here, sometimes there,
gaining his livelihood and that of his
wife and children literally BY the sweat
Of his brow. He was SO strong, too,

Anxions TO Hear From Chicago.

The following sketch from the Louis
vile C0Hrier-JourRdi illustrates the
hardships and isolation OF Alaska Ter
ritpry, and also how tantalizing it is to
want to know aud vet be kept IN ig-
norance by the failure OF another
memory.
The news from America travels slow
", in default OF regular communication.
but the American inhabitants, most of
whom have recently removed there, are
keen 70 hear all the political develop
ments from home. They were particu-
larry interested in the outcome OF the
Republican Presidential Convention at
Chicago. as the latest papers they re-
ceiyed seemed to indicate warm con-
test between the eminent Republicans,
with Grant leading.
1t happened that ship left San Fran
cisco for Alaska ssvera. days after the
nomination had been made, and. after
several months sailing. entered Sitka
Bay. The little town was aroused, and
every American in the place. boiling
over with curiosity. rushedd down to the
pier 10 hear the news. \ boat put of,
and in few minutes the skipper, a
blunt and honest old tar, with all his
heart in his ship. came ashore. His
kindly eve was beaming with pleasure
at the cordial reception in store for him.
No sooner had his foot touched the
sand than the anxious citizens were
upon him. shaking his hands and inquir-
i'm who was nominated at Chicago.
Nominated for what?n asked the
old skipper in tones OF surprise.
''For PreSiaent--hv the Republic
ans cried his listeners.
oh. yes, yesi' responded the tar,
with bright smile, and the crowd felt
great rehef "Lcmme see.n began
the old fellow, as his countenance dark
enei with thought.
''Lemme see. now; | heard his name;
it was-ah," and he paused and
scratched his head. while the crowd
hung breahless for this word. II heard
his name yes, | heard ii. but l can't
recollect il. =
The honest tar had evidently given
politics no attention. and on his voyage
the light of Garfield tame had ex-
pred.
The Alaskans concluded after a coun-
Gil that it was not Grant, because the
skipper would have remembered him,
and that il was not Sherman, because
the sailors would have been familiar
with his name. They agreed on Blaine,
then. and probably don't know any bet
ter yet They viii not hear of the result
OF the election until next May.

Bad 0mens.

AMONG other bad omens in India may
be mentioned snake or jackal cross
ing ones path; hearing a person cry
when you are going anywhere; the
cawing of a crow, and the crying of a
kite; eat crossing ones path, and the
seeing an empty pitcher. As compared
with the bad. there are but few good
omens. Among these may be men
toned he following: The meeting OF a
dead body being carried away, and no
one crying with it: seeing pitcher
with Il rope attached TO it, or a Brah-
min carrying jug of holy water from
the Gangcs; lizard creeping up one 5
body; hearing n bride cry when she is
leaving her parents and going to live
with her husband; hearing the bell of q
temple strike, or a trumpet sound when
one is setting ont on journey; crow
perched on dead body floating down
the river. and fox crossing ones
path.
