A story gained circulation among naval men
during the early part of the week that caused q
great deal of commotion. 1t was said that a
certain young officer on duty in this city, a
married man, somewhat effemnate and inclined
to be dudish, went to see Commodore Ramsay,
Acting Secretary, on Monday, and asked that
another officer, also on duty here-a large, finely
built man-be transferred to some other city, or
better still, sent to sea- When pressed for his
reasons he acknowledged that he had discovered
an undue intimacy between his wife and the
other officer. The lady, it seems, is a large,
vigorous, lively blonde, who saw more to charm
her in the more robust wearer of the gold but
tons than in her husband, and 1t was the old,
old story told over again. The young husband
desired secrecy on account of his little girl,
three years old, but he was willing to forgive
his wife and take no steps for separation if
the other man were sent away. The story goes
that Commodore Ramsay promised that the re-
quest would be given attention, but the Com
modore denies any knowledge of the incident
and brands the story as an entire fabrication
Nevertheless, the tale is believed, and most of
the officers who have heard it have selected the
people whom they think fit the descriptions
given.

CENSUS FIGURES.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 10 Although
there is lots of work yet ahead of the
census Office, the greatest interest at
present surrounds the approaching COM
pletion of the count of the country. This
work is being rapidly pushed forward
and the results have been published by
counties The larger towns also have
been counted. but towns of less
than 1000 people and the small viii
lagos will have to wait for the second
count before they can officially know
the number of their inhabitants. From
the present outlook it would ap-
pear that there are not quite
o. 000, 600 of us. There are, how.
ever, over 6S,O0O,0 600 of people in
the country, and an advance of Is, COO.
600, such as that indicates, during ten
years is of itself sufficiently extraordi-
nary. Up to the present time the census
Office has completed the count of twenty
eight States and Territories. These give
a total of IS. 761, ga The returns
from the remaining twenty States are all
in and most of them have been counted.
But in each case there are one or more
districts which have not yet been
figured up, so that the actual figures for
the whole States can not yet be
determined. All but six of these
are Southern States. suffi.
cient number of districts in each State
have, however, been counted to afford a
very close estimate of what will be the
totals. These estimates have been
figured out and give a total OF
"a, 47o,2ls. This number, added &c
the total of the twenty-eight
States which have been counted,
gives grand total for the whole coun.
try of 63, 23l, 42s, and it can be conf.
IDENTIFY asserted that the final official
figures will not vary from this by more
than quarter of million. The fol-
lowing are the actual figures for the
twenty-eight States which have been
counted by the census office:

The Best Advertising .

The most efficient advertising in be-
half of Hoods Sarsaparilla is that which
comes from the medicine itself That
is, those who are cured by it, speak to
friends suffering similarly. who in
turn derive benefit and urge others tC
try this successful medicine. Thus the
circle of its popularity is rapidly widen
ing from this cause alone, and more
and more are becoming enthusiastic in
behalf of Hoods Sarsaparilla as it actu.
ally demonstrates its absolute merit
All that is asked for Hoods Sarsaparil-
la is that it be given fair trial. II you

WASHINGTON, Oct lS-Judge Lewis
A Croft, the Commissioners of the Gene
raj Land Office, has submitted to the
Secretary of the Interior the annual re-
port Of the operations of his bureau for
the fiscal year ended June 30, 1890. The
report says that an agricultural domain
of nearly 10 600, 600 acres has during
the year been transferred to settlers
by patents issued to them. The area
of coal and mineral lands patented has
been greatly increased over that of the
fiscal year ended June so, 1889. The
area patented to the States under the
grants for educational and internal inn
provement purposes has increased 800
per cent. The class of patents known
as agricultural" includes all patents
issued on final and committed home
stead entries, on presumption, timber
culture, desert. private cash, TOWNSHIP
and other entries embracing land of an
agricultural non-mineral character.
The number of such agricultural pat
ents issued during the period covered
by the report was III, 247, embracing
is, 75S, 500 acres, as against 7o,l4l
issued in 1889, with an aggregate area
of II, 22O, 500 The increase for
the year is, therefore, AZ, 106 pat
ents, and 1856, 900 acres of land.
OF mineral and mill-site patents 1,4O7
were issued. showing an increase in the
year of 494. OF coal patents 224 were
issued. This is an increase of 60
patents, representing 1886 acres. The
acreage of swamp lands patented to the
several States during the year was 109,-
S51. There were patented or certified
under the law for the benefitof railroad
companies during the year S6s, s62 acres.
This is decrease for the year of 81, 1873
acres.
Upon the subject of the forests of the
public domain the Commissioner says
that he finds that the most valuable
timber on the public lands is being rap
idly exhausted, and that the several
laws relating to the subject ara utterly
inadequate properly to protect either
the public forests from unlawful appro-
priation or the interests of the settlers.
