LOVE AND LAUGHTER.
Laugh and the world laughs with you;
Weep and you weep alone.
For the sad old earth must borrow its mirth;
But has trouble enough Of its own.
Sing and the hills will answer:
Sigh, 1t is lost on the ar, for
The echoes bound to joyful sound,
But shrink from voice OF care.
Rejoice and men will seek you,
Grieve and they turn and go;
They want full measure of all your pleasure,
But they do not need your woe.
Be glad and your friends are many;
Be sad and you lose them all;
There are none to decline your nectared wine,
But alone you must drink life's gall.
Feast and your halls are crowded;
Fast and the world goes by;
Succeed and give, and 1t helps you live,
But no man can help you die.
There is room in the halls Of pleasure
For large and lordly trains;
But one by one we must all file on,
Through the narrow aisles of pain.

forfeit his salary. In reply to this Mr..

which was received yesterday:
Daily reports from Hall show that he took s24
names, and the matter has been telegrsphed
Porter for advice
Mr.. Prosch expresses no doubt that the
schedules representing 138 names have
been lost by being scattered around Halls
house. and states that Hall has practically
violated the oath he took on accepting the
ofice
Hall also undertook work on the supple
mental count and reported two weeks ago
that he had 150 names. Since then moth
ing has been seen or heard of him. He
turned over some of his books to other
enumerators and thus his lists obtained
from the Chamber Of Commerce enumera-
tors may have been investigated and In
ciuded in the total.
Hall has recently been appointed station
agent for the Northern Pacific at Black

They Have Not All Been Turned I'm to
the Supervisor.
The population of Seattle, as stated in
the census, is liable TO suffer discount on
account of the dissipation of Valentine
Hall. one of the enumerators. Hall was
EMPLOYED to make the recount of one of the
subdivisions Of district 80. and his daily re-
ports showed that. on completing his work.
he had secured 624 names. This was three
weeks ago and since then Mr.. Halls
schedules have not been forthcoming.
Finally last week Special Agent Prosch
sent George A. Gates, one Of his enumer-
ators, TO Halls residence to secure an ex-
nIauation. Mrs Hall said her husband
was not at home and message was left for
him to cali on Mr.. Prosch the next day
and leave his schedules. He failed to call
and Mr. Prosch went to the house. He
found Mr.. Hall still away and saw the
census schedules scattered about the
house in confusion. He again asked that
Mr.. Hall call to see him, but the absent
enumerator did not appear. Two other
calls were made. equally barren of results,
but at last Mrs. Hall said her husband had
sent the schedules by mail direct to Super
visor Jenkins at Whatcom. On SATURDAY.
Mr.. Prosch received the following telegram
from MIR. jenkins:
Halls schedules received sns show q total Of
4s6 only, which brings total for recount In dis
trict to 2,oTo or 2s7 below report made by you.
Can you explain thfs7
In reply Mr.. Prosch both teiegraphed
and wrote by mail, explaining that the
fact was that Mr.. Hall had secured 624. but
had lost some of the schedules through his
own negligence and csrslsssness. He
