Secrecy of Answers to Census Questions.

Men need not be afraid to answer the
questions Of the census enumerators about
their business, nor women about their age,
for the law provides severe penalties for any
disclosure of information he may receive,
on any subject, by a census enumerator.
By the 18th section of the act of March
LIST, 1889, it is provided that ''any super
visor Oh enumerator who shall, without the
authority OF the superintendent, communi-
cate to any person not authorized to receive
the same information gained by him in the
performance of his duties, shall be guilty of
a misdemeanor, and upon conviction shall
be fined not exceeding five hundred dollars. y
The intent of this provision is to make
the answers to all the inquiries confidential
and to prevent disclosures of information
which would operate to the personal detri-
ment OF disadvantage of the supplier of the
same. 1t is not within the discretion of
the supervisor OF enumeratOr to make pub
lie OF give out for his private use OF that Of
any other person any part of the informa-
ton obtained by him. Furthermore, it
should be the duty of the enumerator to
state in all cases where objection is raised.
that the names and residence will not be
used in the printed reports, nor will any
statement be made concerning the business
Or operations Of individual establishments

Story of old Stage-Dr1vlng Times.

An interesting antiquarian writer in
his crossing the Blue Ridge to Staunton in
the old stage-coaching times and gives an
incident about driver still well remem-
bered in Augusta county:
Our travellers had now reached an old stone
tavern near the top of the mountain on the
western side. 1t is there now, and has his
tory not to be included within the narrow
limits of these pages. While old Jake Dull
is getting fresh team hitched some of the
passengers are enjoying draughts of the purest
water, while others have discovered place
from which are delivered the most delicious
of mint juleps. Meantime others are discuss
ing the question as to whether this was the
spot at which Governor SpotsWood and his
knightly train passed over to the waters OF
the Shenandoah and why it was called Rock
fish Gap. With much regret we began the
way, told me of what once occurred to him
just here. He had on heavy load; as the
coach made lurch in the road, the pole
snapped and .'she' ran against the wheel
thing to do was to lay on the whip and keep
the team clear of the coach. OF course they
all went at a gallop down the mountain The
passengers thought he was drunk and would
yelled, and some did worse, threatening to
Shoot him if he did not stop. But they still
heard the crack of his whip and the grinding
of the wheels as the coach went Whirllng
round the curves in the road After fearful
state of excitement and suspense, the team
and coach dashed into the river at the foot of
the mountain and coming out on the other
side, found themselves on gentle ACTIVITY,
where it was safe to stop. The Infatuated
travellers at once got out and were about to
take vengeance upon old Jake. The latter
quietly descended from his seat, had simply
to point at the broken pole, when their wrath
was soon changed into thanks for his cool
ness, and COMMUNICATIONS for his skill in say
ing them from perhaps serious disaster. He
where he ever had any bad luck. Once hail
storm, the like of which he had never before
seen, struck him just as he left the stable at
| the ''Mountain Top The horses got scared
and ran away down the Notwithstanding on
earth could have stopped them; so all he could
do was to try to keep them on the road. For
| tunately he met nothing coming up the noun
tain and managed to run through the storm
without accident.
