What the New Directory VIII Indicate In
Regard TO Population.

Regard TO Population.
Mr.. J. f. Difenbacher. publisher of the
City Directory, has large force engaged
compiling the names for this years book.
The letters "a, "B" and &c" are already
in the press. and the work on the remainder
is being pushed as rapidly as possible. The
outlook points to larger increase in the
number of names this year than last.
Mr. Difenbacher usually has good many
complaints about the incorrectness of ad-
dresses. He says this is largely due to peo-
pie moving after the canvsssers have done
their work. He invites all who have moved
since the canvassers were around this year
to send in their corrections Immediately and
they can be made. The Directory will be
issued about June 1.

she felt slight tug at her hair. She could
could not scream nor move, so close was
the embrace When the pulling ceased she

the time she arose the hair-cutter was
