THE census Of North Yakima will show
a population Of 1912. This Is about one
half Of the actual population. Mr.. Liz
geit. the enumerator, says that 4 full
count would bring the figures submitted
up to twenty-lveo or twenty-eight hundred
but the absurd questions and restrictions.
and the still more absu. d pay Of two cents
per capita did not warrant him in devot-
ing more time to the work. Yakima il
somewhat 10 blame for the meagre emu
ueration, for the citizens made no effort
whatever to assist the enumeTator in
securing q proper count.

SUNDAY BALL GAMES.
CALIFORNIA LEAGUE CLUBS PUT IN
DOUBLE TIME.
The Oaklands Win Both Games From San
Francisco and the Sacramentos Do the
Same From Stockton.

SAN Francisco, April 27.-The Oak
lands and San Franciscos played at the
Oakland grounds this morning Spears
and Lohman caught, while Young and
Meegan were the pitchers. Both pitched
fine ball and were given excellent sup
port. After the game at Oakland the
San Franciscos and Oaklands came over
to the city, where they played another
game. The makeup of the teams was
similar to that of the morning, with the
exception OF change in batteries, Look
abaugh and Stephens, for San
Francisco, while Oakland placed
Cobb in the box. The afternoon game,
although more closely contested, was not
as interesting as the morning game.
The Oaklands outplayed the 'Friscos in
every point. Lookabaugh and Cobb
pitched good ball, but the latter was
considerably more effective in his de-
livery.
Score-Morning: San Francisco. s.,
Oakland, 9. Afternoon: San Francisco.
4; Oakland, 7.
Sacramento VS.. Stockton.
STOCKTON, April 27.-The game be-
tween the Stocktons and Sacramentos
this afternoon was fine one. The
home team outplayed the visitors both
at the bat and in the field, but pre-
sented them the game in the tenth
innings.
Score-Sacramento, 8; Stockton, 2.
SACRAMENTO, April 27.-The Sacra-
mentos beat the Stocktons this afternoon
for the second time today, by score of
p to Z. Parrott pitched fine ball up to
the sixth inning, but his support was so
bad that he seemed to become discour-
aged and was batted freely. Harper
pitched great ball and was well sup
ported.

VOTED TO STRIKE.
One Thousand Packing House Employees
Threaten to Go Out May 1st.

One Thousand Packing House Employees
Threaten to Go Out May 1st.
CHICAGO, April 27.--Fully one thou
sand packing house men by unanimous
vote decided this afternoon to go out on
strike Thursday, unless their request
for eight hours day was complied with.
President O'Neill, OF the Packing Labor
ers' Union, presided at the meeting.
One of the speakers, John Mccullough,
said the packers owned the laborers
body and soul since the last strike, and
now when an effort was being made to
shake off the coils that bound them,
they should take advantage of the oppor-
tunity. This time there would be no
Pinkertons to intimidate or murder.
Lawyer Richman assured the men from
whom money forfeits against strike
had been enacted by different establish
ments, that they would not lose one
cent of the forfeits by a strike.
President O'Neill in an interview
tonight said the men had an organiza-
ton OF four thousand members, and
were being backed by the Chicago Per-
sonal Rights League, and the Federation
of Labor,

STUDENTS OF THE OCCULT.
Convention of the Disciples of Madame
B1avatsky at Chicago,


CHICAGO, April 27.-The fourth annual
convention of the American section of
the Theosophical Society was held here
today. Bertram Keightly of London,
was present, as the bearer of message
from Madame Blavatsky, the ruling
spirit of the organization. He read a
lengthy address from the Council of the
British section, and fraternal communi-
cations from branches in various Euro
pean countries. Madame Blavatsky's
communication warned members against
the results of the present terminating
of many of the latest physhic
and occult powers into such
forms as Christian science, mind
cure, etc. Understand at once for all, :"
said she, ''that there is nothing spirit
ual or divine in any of
these manifestations. The healer
interferes consciously or unconsciously
with the free mental action of the per-
son he treats, and this is blank magic.
The general secretary's report said the
visit to Japan by Olcott, one of the
founders of the organization, has been
of momentous importance to the Bud
dhist church. The repart recommends
the suspension of all forms of initiation.
THE existing ones," the report said,
'while commonly symbolic, merely con-
fuse the signs and words by which men,
bership can be approved" The objec-
tions were that the society was not a
secret body, but merely an organization
of students and philanthropists. The
present system of grips and passwords
arouses, in many countries, disgust
and antagonism.
At the evening session papers were
read by DR.. Jerome G. Anderson, of San
Francisco, and others.

PARIS, April 27.-The municipal cleo
tions today passed off quietly. In the
suburbs the police destroyed a number
of Orleanist and Boulangist placards.
President Carnot has returned to Paris
Two Republicans were elected and
fifty-nine new ballots will be necessary.
OF the latter, the voting today favored
the Republicans in forty-two cases, the
Boulangists in thirteen and the Conser-
vatives in four.
The Royalist deputy for Belleville has
been sentenced to 1,500 franks fine and
10000 francs damages for ibeling G OBJ
let.
President Carnot has received letter
from the King of Dahomey, complaining
that the French attacked him without
warning and without declaring war
against him. The French merchants
now in his power will be kept as host
ages.
Comtesse Kessler, daughter of Ad-
miral Lynch, has brought actions
against the Matin, Soir and Parti National
(newspapers) for accusing her of being a
Prussian spy and giving receptions with
sinister ends; also for accusing her of
stealing Boulanger's mobilizing scheme.

YOU MUST HAVE A CAD"
The Memory Hoop Has the Attention of
the Gothamites at Present.

Ii you stand for all you should in your
service to the present age you must have
fad" 1t doesn't make much differ
ence what it is-it may be fond or foolish
or profound, Ibsen or violets, but some
thing exclusive and all your own it must
be, and you must cherish it as you do
your own personality. If you have any
ingenuity, think out your own 'fad"-the
more pains the thinking fit costs you, the
more successful it is likely to be. Ii you
haven't the requisite amount OF in
genuity, find somebody who has, if you
can, and get him to furnish you with
one.
Ii that isn't possible, then you will
have to adopt one of the lesser "fads"
that belong in common to the world of
young women. Chief among these at
present is the memory hoop, which per-
haps will suit you as well as anything.
To begin the memory hoop, you must
first have hoop made OF some polished
wood about as big as barrel. Then you
must get each of your girl friends to give
you a piece of her favorite colored rib
bon with her initials worked thereon.
These bits of ribbons you wind round,
round the hoop until the wood is en-
tirely covered. Then have the hoop
suspended horizontally over your dress
ing table or your reading chair, and now
the real work in connection with the
memory hoop begins. Each one of your
men friends must be called upon to con-
tribute an old-fashNhed copper two
cent piece. 1t may put him to deal OF
trouble, but a man won't mind little
trouble surely, if it is reasonably certain
to result in his being perpetuated within
the magic circle of the memory hoop.
So when he has secured the copper two
cent piece, he must have his initials en-
graved on one side with the date, and a
! line of poetry on the other. Then the
polished disk is suspended from the
hoop by a bit of ribbon of the color Of
the dress you happen to have on when
the copper is given to you.
Now the real sentimental utility OF
the memory hoop reveals itself. When
any one of the coppers grows dim and
tarnished it doesn't mean in this case
as it ordinarily would, that the chem
istry OF the air is at work-it hath far
deeper meaning than this, and goeth on
to signify that the giver is in some
peculiar circumstances of trial or dis
tress," as the prayer book or some
other equally good authority has
it, and that you must write tt
him at once and offer him as
appropriate consolation as you can, not
quite knowing whether his distress
comes from having backed the wrong
horse at the races, or because the girl he
loves has broken her engagement with
him. But do the best you can, and he
will be comforted and you will be canon
lied, and the raison d'etre of the memory
hoop will be established, between yor
two at any rate, beyond the suspicion o
doubt.-[New York Sun.

A BRISK BLAZE.
VISITED BY FIRE
LAST NIGHT.
Several Firms Burned Out-A Number of
Spectators Injured by the Collapse of
Sidewalk.

SACRAMENTO, April 27.-Fire broke out
tonight in the paint and oil store of Sui
livan, Kelly & Co., and, the store being
filled with infammable material, was
soon a mass of flames. The fire was
confined to the building, although
the surrounding property was badly
damaged by water. The building was
owned by Green & Trainer, and
is almost a total loss. The
stock OF Sullivan, Kelly & Co. was
totally destroyed; loss about 100000,
partially covered by insurance. The
cause is unknown. During the progress
of the fire the sidewalk on the
gave way. and twenty or thirty
people fell fifteen feet into basement.
A number of persons, including two
ladies, were severely injured, and a
Chinaman had a leg broken.

THE TEXAS DELUGE.
Greatest Flood Known in the History of
the Country.


the Country.
DALLAS, Tex, April 27.-The most
destructive flood ever known in the
history of North Texas is now passing
through the Trinity. The great rain
raised every tributary of it far out of it's
banks. Yesterday and last night it rose
rapidly, and this morning passed the
highest water mark in fifty years. In
front of this city it is two miles wide,
extending to the foot of Flanders heights
west, and to Oak cliff, south of the city.
On the north all the residences from a
hundred yards beyond Cochran street,
are submerged, some to the second floor,
and others to the attic. No one has
been reported drowned. All night and
all day, today, the people have been
moving to the higher ground. The back
water extends far upon the north side
of the city, whilst on the south houses
are submerged as far up as Ward street.
North, south and in front of the city
there is one vast ocean of water about
forty feet deep, and at this hour it is
still rising, and will continue to rise
until at least Tuesday. Trains on all
the railroads are not running west,
north or south of the city today. Wash
outs are reported all along the lines, but
the worst are Immediately around the
city. Tonight the crest OF the waves
lacks six feet of the flooring OF the
bridges in the city, but the
Santa Fe and Central below
town are submerged. News from
the surrounding country is bad. Most
of the small bridges have been destroyed
by the deluge. The destruction of crops
will amount to little, for as soon as the
water goes down they will grow again
Fridays storm extended from Indiar
Territory to the Gulf, and from Marshal
to Abilene. There was not stream tha
was not raised high above it's higf
water mark. At many points there
were hurricanes and one cyclone. Many
houses were blown down. So far, only
one life has been reported lost.

TARIFF REVISION.
The Mckinley Bill Will Be
Passed.
The Congressional Pulse ON the
Measure.
Members Interviewed as to How
They Will Vote.
Tl.<D - A 49,
The Republicans Will Stand by 1t Almost

in the Premises.
Associated Press Dispatches. |

PHILADELPHIA, April 27.-The Press
tomorrow publishes the most complete
and careful poll Of the majority in Con-
gress ever made by a newspaper. The
purpose was to ascertain the views of the
individual members as to the necessity
Of passing tariff revision and reduc-
ton bill as speedily as possible. Inter-
views were had with 209 Senators and
Representatives.
The Press interviewers found what OPP
position exists to McKinley's bill on the
Republican side of the House, and, by
extending the interviews to the Demo-
Gratis, found the particular line of
attack upon the bill likely to
be adopted by the opposition.
The fact of supreme Importance is that
a bill revising the tariff and reducing
the revenue will be enacted before Con-
gress adjourns for the summer.
The Press interviewed 159 Republi-
cans, and with two exceptions they all
agree that the Republican tariff bill
will be passed, and while differences
exist as to many of the schedules, the
entire party is in accord on the general
principle and purpose of the Mckinley
bill.
The interviews show strong senti-
ment on the part of the Republicans in
favor of the bill, even if some of it's fea-
lures are not wholly in accord with their
individual opinions of the measure.
Although each was called upon to ex-
press his views, there is a singular
dearth of strong criticism on the part OF
the Democrats. In a general way the
Democrats protest against the bill with
out going into particulars. They admit
the probability of its passing, but they
are evidently displeased with measure
which offers the masses of the people free
sugar on the one hand and the farmers
of the country additional protection on
important articles which they produce,
on the other hand.
The result is summarized as follows
Total number interviewed, 200. Tota
number OF Republicans interviewed
159. Number of Republicans who
believe that the bill for the revision OF
the tariff and reducing the revenue must
be passed before this Congress adjourns,
twenty. Number now ready to vote for
the Mckinley bill as it stands, al.
Number who believe the Mckinley bill is
sure to be satisfactory to the party and
country by amendments, if passed, 118.
Number who are not sure about it, 7.

FIFTY-FIRST CONGRESS.
OUTLINE OF THE WORK TO BE DIS
POSED OF THIS WEEK.
Forfeiture Bill Today-Silver to Have
Early Consideration in Both Houses.

WASHINGTON, April 27.-The Senate to-
morrow will resume consideration of the
Land Grant Forfeiture bill, with the ex-
pectation of coming to vote before ad-
journment. After that the Customs
Administrative bill will probably fill out
the remainder of the week. There is
considerable opposition on the Demo-
cratic side to the measure, and Evarts
has an amendment to propose.
The Silver bill will be taken up this
week, if any time remains. Although
the Republican caucus of the Senate has
not agreed upon the details of silver
BILL it is believed a measure will be
prepared for the consideration of the
Senate by the time that body is ready to
entertain it.
The House.
The failure of the House to pass the
Legislative Appropriation bill Saturday,
leaves it to come up tomorrow as unfin-
ished business. The previous question
has been ordered.
The present intention is to pass the
Silver bill, and it will probably be called
up ON resolution to be reported by the
committee on rules, allowing two days
for it's discussion.
The pension committee is to be given
day, and the committee on public
buildings is to have the same privilege
in order to dispose of bills reported. The
Diplomatic Appropriation bill will prob
ably be passed without discussion.
No time has yet been allotted the
River and Harbor bill, but as large
number of the members desire the
measure passed before the Tariff bill
comes up, they may be able to have il
considered during the week.
