rEPRc1AL rELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcH.l
CALDWELL, o., December 28.--Private
Dalzell has just received from Robert P.
Porter, Superintendent of the Eleventh
Census, the following letter, telling how it
is proposed to find out all about the old
soldiers next June;
Private Dalzell, Caldwell, Noble Co., Ohio:
DEAR sIR-Your suggestions as to the points
which should be covered by special census OF
surviving soldiers and sailors, have been re-
ceiYed, and have to thank you for them. The
Law, so far as provision has been made for this
special work, permits the securing of the name.
rank, company, regiment and length Of SER
vice, and this data can be secured, on special
schedule in the hands Of the census enumera-
tors.
To ascertain correctly the other points men,
toned by you would require personal visit to
each surviving soldier and sailor, and would
require as well good deal more time than Is
now allowed by law for the gathering by the
census enumerators of the statistics authorized
and required under the law
As you probably know, it is only rarely that
/ the census enumerator would see surviving
soldier or sailor in person, the information TO
be gathered on the several schedules being
supplied by some member Of his household. I
census enumerator is limited as to time, said
time being two weeks In cities of 10000 inhabi-
tanrs, according TO the census OF 1880, and one
month in all other enumeration districts.
This matter Of obtaining detailed statement
as to the present financial and physical condi-
ton of survivors has been the subject Of con-
siderable consideration and correspondence
with General Alger and others interested, and
the means whereby this could be carried out,
and not conflict with or jeopardiEe the success
Of the census as q whole, has been
suggested by this office. This plan, in
brief was to have the census emu
merator, at the time Of the enumeration,
in June next, 20 leave with each survivor or
widow an inquiry card containing the various
points covered by this special data needed, and
with the necessary instructions printed on the
other side Of the card. This card could be
filled in at the convenience of the person, and
returned in an envelope supplied for the pur-
pose to the Census Office
In the case of all those persons who, after .
certain time, did not make such return special
means could Ee provided to secure this infor-
nation from them, and thus make the record
as complete as possible. To do this. OF course,
would require an additional sum of money be-
yond what has been already appropriated for
the census proper. II such plan is adopted,
and the additional money secured. l do not see
why tins could not be carried out successfully,
and be of great value to all persons interested
in this matter. Very respectfully.
ROBERT p. PORTER,
Superintendent of Census.

FAT MEN EAslLr sWlNDLnD.
Quack Doctors Make nisney By Selling
Them An Sorts Of NoD.rums

New YORK SUM-
"Fat men" said well-known physician
yesterday. ARE the most gullibis creatures
of earth. No end of patent medicine sharps
have made big fortunes purely BY the man
ner in which they have preysd upon the
prejudices of men who convey superHuous
flesh around with them, and there would
seem to be absolutely no nostrum too nom
sensical or absurd for fat man to reject. The
merest tyro in matters relating to hygiene
knows perfectly well that the only reasona-
bic way for man Of abundant flesh to re-
duce himselfis is by exercise. Then, as he
grows thinner, his muscles harden and be
increases in strength, but inordinate fat pre-
disposes man to inertia and languor, and
SO fat men try to reduce themselves bY medi-
cines and medical remedies Of various sorts.
They succeed in wrecking their digestive
powers, and that is about all. Most of
them are big and strong enough to protect
themselves in physical sense, but they are
veritable children when they come in contact
with quack doctors"

There was a rumor in circulation yester-
day to the effect that the Equitable Life In
surance Company, OF New York, was nego-
tiating for the purchase of the Central or St.
Charles Hotel property, on which to erect q
magnificent Office building.
Edward A Woods, Cashier Of the Eouit-
able in this city, and son of Manager George
Woods, was asked last evening if they
knew of such deal at his Office in this city.
He said they had not heard of it, and be did
not believe that the Equitable contemplated
investing money in this city or, in fact,
anywhere outside of New York City, where
the bulk Of its capital is already invested
The com pany has Office buildings in New
York, Boston, st. Louis, Mexico, Santiago.
Paris, Vienna and Berlin. but the
reason of this is that it cannot
do business in foreign countries without
putting MP a cash deposit, buying bonds or
owning real estate in those countries. The
conditions of its charter are such that it
cannot invest in property outside of New
York City without first procuring a special
permit. 1t was also rumored that L. T.
4ooer, oil 1oQer, w eaVer q costello, con-
fectioners, on Third avenue, in the rear of
the Central, had been approached by parties
who wished to buy his property.
Mr.. Yoder was very busy last night, be-
tween attending choir rehearsal and the
worry of having a sick baby at home, but he
took time to say that Henry W. Weaver
had asked him some time ago if he would
sell his Smithfeld street property, and he
replied that he would if he got his price,
but there was no offer made on either side,
and the subject was never resumed. Mr..
Yoder said he had heard that syndicate
had secured considerable property some
where in that neighborhood, and that Nc
Donald, the caramel manufacturer, would
be forced to seek new quarters as soon as
his lease expired. which would be in few
months. Mr. Yoder had been informed

BERNHARDT AND BUFFALO BILL

As most people know, am personally ac.
quainted with the golden voiced Sarah,
having had the pleasure OF travelling with
her as Mr.. Abbey's treasurer, during her
first voyage in America. The last time but
one that called on Nine. BernhHrdt took
Buffalo Bill with me to her dressing room
and presented HIM in due form to the dis
tinguished artistic. She was enchanted, and
some Of her friends who were present, Mile
Abbema, the painter, ETC., did ali they
could TO make Cody know they we're glad to
see him In evening dress. It was after that
visit that Bernhard gave her opinion about
Joan Of Arc
For long time, said she, II have been
enamored Of the character. After having
read Michelet Henri Martin and Lamar
tine, I searched Tor everything that had
been written about her for the stage: Pierre
DumenirE tragedy. soumet's trilogY,
6chiller's superb drama, and Dayrigny's
play which was acted st the Theater Fran
cais some 80 years ago. finally selected
Jules BARRIERS work, as one that keeps the
conditions exacted, right or wrong, BY the
French stage. He gives Us g series OF situ-
etions representing the great Joan OF Arc at
different DAYS; hut unfortunately he has not
shown her 70 Us under all her aspects. For

In spite Of all your precautions the novel
after all may turn out to be marketable, but
IN that case you can still manage to be
failure by making bad bargain with the
publisher. Should he wish to purchase it,
sell the copyright for q small sum in cash.
1t may be that he will draw thousand q
year for it while you have only q single
hundred, or if it is on the half profit sys-
tenn let him insert clause making the halv-
ing begin after he has had 20 per cent OF the
profit. Nothing is easier than to neutralize
the uncalculated advantages of having un-
willingly been guilty Of a clever novel.
There would be many more failures but for
the fact that publishers, to do them justice,
when they make great hit, are in the habit
Of presenting checks to the uncommercial
authors.

most casual acquaintance with great critic

Sparkling and Pure.

One OF the principal requirements OF q
consumer of beer is that the beer he drinks
shall be rparkling and pure. This he finds
pre- eminently in the beer made by the far
famed Anheuser.B Busch Brewing company.
The capital invested in their plant by this
company is the largest OF any in the
United States, they have an army OF en-
ployes engaged in the manufacture, the
best procurable materials are employed in
the manufacture and the most skilled
workmen superintend the product through
all it's processes. The result is q quality OF
beer that will stand expectation to all
PARTS OF the civilized world and that ia
drunk with satisfaction and pleasure by
beer-drinkers every where. Especial care is
taken with that manufactured for con.
sumption in the West, and the universal
testimony Of all acquainted with the
EAnheuser. Busch beer is that no better
article of it's kind is placed or this or any
other market. 1t contains all b uutritive
qualities that make beer the national
drink in this and other countries, and as
no deleterious substance is allowed to enter
into it's manufacture, can with
confidence use it, certain that it is Tree
from the pernicious substances employed
by many manufacturers OF beer to produce
the same effect as the pure materials en-
ployed in the brewing of the Anheuser-
Busch beer. The best evidence OF these
statements is the worldwide popularity
enjoyed by the Anheuser-Busch beer, q
popularity hat has extended over many
years and still keeps It in the lesd against

ONE OR TWO SETS OF OFFICERS.

The Constitutional Convention not q
Double-Jointed or Bifurcated Body.
WASHINGTON, May 24.-Assistant Solicit
tor General Shields has rendered an opin-
ion in esponse to a request from the secre-
tary Of Montana az to whether "the con
stitutional convention, which meets at
Helena on the 4th day Of July next, will
be limited to one set OF officers, as allowed
by law to each body of the legislative as
semblage."
The secretary OF Montana. in his com.
munlcation, says the number OF members
in this ~assemblage will be double the num-
Der of both the legislative assemblies, and
will require additional help, and he desires
to know il such additional help will be al
lowed by the government.
The assistant attorney.geaeral in his
~opinion says: Although the number OF
members OF the said convention might be
more than double the number OF members
of both the legislative bodies, yet it is only
one body, and he is OF the opinion that
under the laws regulating thepay and num-
her OF subordinate officers in the legislative
assemblies OF the territories only one set OF
officers of the classification described in
the act 0f June 10, 1876, can be allowed
for said convention under the rules and
regulations provided by law for the pay
ment OF territorial legislators.

JERSEY Cry, N. j., May PA plot was
unearthed this morning for a general deliv-
cry Of the convicts confined in the Hudson
county penitentiary at Snake Hill. The
attention Of two DEF uty wardens being
attracted by suspicious conferences OF five
long-term prisoners, a search was made OF
the cells occupied by the convicts.
The investigation resulted in the discov-
cry OF nineteen files. six knives, five saws,
ten drills, a pair OF compasses and other
articles. The files were smuggled into
the prison from the outside, and
the other tools were made by
convict blacksmiths nov at liberty. A set
of keys made OF lead, found in the pockets
Of convicts, would have rapidly opened the
doors OF the cells and then OF the corridors.
The men were at once put in close con.
fnement and for some time will subsist on
bread and water. Other prisoners are
believed to be implicated and a searching
investigation is O in progress.
