Alleged Omissions of the Enumerators
Complained OF.

The Census Office has received a letter from
The chamber of commerce, Chattanooga,
Tenn, under date of August Is, In which the
opinion 10 expressed that omissions have been
made in the enumeration OF that city. In
formation is asked az 70 how these omissions
can now be corrected.
Mr.. Hyde, who 10 in charge Of the work Of
enumeration, has written reply, in which he
states that the Census Office AT this late
date, upon the simple superstition or
belief OF any numbsr Of respectable cit
liens, cannot assent to the assumption
thai the work OF the enamsrators 10
substantially incorrect That there are omis-
sions and mistakes is undoubtedly true" Mr..
HYDE then goes on to speak Of the difficulties
In the way OF making a comparison OF the
schedules, - those are now In the hands Of the
crks and used in the work OF tabulation. He
also refers to the Inability to error arising from
batas any opinion upon q city directory. In
conclusion he expresses the opinion that the
census OF Chattanooga was a. we'll taken as ID
possible under system devised by mere NOR

His Confidence In Human Nature Shaken
by an Immigrant
"Everything's dead wrong in this
world, said a shabby man who was sit
ting on park bench the other day to
his companion, "and amt got no con-
fidence in human nature left Every
body is skinnin' everybody else, il seems
to me, and genovine old fashioned hon
esty's all gone to the dogs. This country
is so wicked that even the ignorant inn
migrant sucks in dishonesty with his
first whiff of Battery air.
Il was a-walking down there only this
morning, when an innocent looking Pole
comes up to me and begins to jabber at
me in the worst attempt at English you
ever heard.
"'What do you want?' says !, taking
pity on him, for he looked so confused
and lost like.
"'Wanta finda inspector man, says he.
~'What forr says l.
@'Give heem thisa, says he, pulling q
fat envelope half way out of the inside
pocket of his waistcoat and ramming it
back again in a jitfy.
"'What's his nameY says |.
"'Forgetta, says the poor devil with
most perpTexed look. DO boss will sack
me-, and he began to cry.
"Well, learned from his actions and
his horrible words, after good deal Of
trouble, that he had only been in this
country month and had got his first
job that week. That the boss sweater
for whom he worked had sent him down
to the Battery to deliver a letter to o
customs Inspector, whose name he, the
poor Pole, had forgotten.
"'Let me see the package, says Il
'can't you read the addressT
"'No reada, he says, dolefully, as he
pulled open his waistcoat just far enough
for me to see the top of the letter.
@'Well, | can't help you, says !, 'un-
less you let me see the address.
"He was afraid to let it out of his
hands for minute, but finally got hold
of it, and could tell at touch that it
had roll of bills in it. Besides that it
was marked in small characters up in
one corner, '$23; pay messenger 80
cents
"'Why, it's addressed to me, says /,
this all the morning. It's mighty lucky
you found me. You must be more care
full to remember names that are told you
after this till you have learned to read
the English. I've good mind to tell
your boss of your carelessness.
"The poor creature fairly squirmed
with fear when said that and begged
me not to report him.
swell, I'll not do it this time, says /,
savageIy, but don't do it again. Here's
your so cents. Now get back as quick
as you can and say to your boss that
said it would be all right

envelope, and, would you believe it,
there was nothin' inside but paper.
