Catarrh is often regarded by the patient a.

INCREAsIS8 CRIMINALS.

Annual reports of boards Of prison
management contain most startling
statistics concerning JaIls and peniten-
tiaries, and the general increase of
crime. But instead of seeking to find q
remedy for all this evil. the state Is too
often willing to build "black blossoms
OF civilization" and crowd people into
them. A di'lgent search into criminal
statistics shows thst in foreign countries
the ratio OF criminal convictions to
population 10 decreasing, very good
evidence that Europe finds it cheaper
to send its criminals 20 the United
Ststes to be taken care Of here, than to
maintain them at home. The excessive
and growing consumption OF alcoholic
stimulants is shown by the reports to
be one of the most fruitful sources of
increase ofcrImInal population. Again.
the indiscriminate herdins Of all classes
Of criminals In jsIls and peuitensiares
has helped swell the Iist. Other causes
might be found. But instead OF build
ing prisons, u would be well for the
state to spend sosns OF iss money in the
application of methods that would
keep people out of them.

LATE CENUs BULLErIys.

Census bulletin, No. 1873, gives the
population of Louisiana, as returned
under the eleventh census. In 1880
the total population was $50, ,9i6. The
eleventh census returns show l.llS,5s7
inhabitants. an increase Of 1851 or
1901 per cent. Three of the fifty-nine
parishes show decreases. The new
parish Acadia was formed from Saint
Landry in 1856. There are fifteen
cltes and towns having q population of
2O00 or more Inhabitants, and of these,
the five largest are, in order of rank,
New Orleans. Shreveport, Baton Rouge,
New Iberia, and Lake Charles. The
las: named shows the greatest percent
age Of increase, 1t being 3i0.74per cent.
Census bulletin. No. l43, covers the
production OF hops in the United States.
The report shows that 80, III ,270 pounds
of hops were raised IN the year 1889.
1t took 1912 acres of land to give this
yell. and the land was distributed over
seventeen states. Thirty-eight million
nine hundred and aixty.five thousand
nine hundred and twenty pounds, or
9J.4s percent of the entire yield. were
raised in the states of New York, WASH
ingson, California, Oregon and Wiscon-
sin. OF these, New York leads, having
produced 20.O63. .O29 pounds on $3.50
acres, an average of SAT pounds to the
acre. California produced the highest
average per acre, 1913 pounds, and
Wisconsin the lowest, AS pounds. The
value of the crop for 1889 was s4,059,-
697. The bulletin also gives the crop
of the year 1890, and its value as a
matter of interest for its comparison
with that OF 1889. In 1890, S6,s72 ,S5i
pounds we're raised, and it was worth
Sll .l06, ,424, or nearly three times the
value of the crop OF 1899. Thi, great
advance is due to the fact that the aver
age price of hops IN 1889 was about 10
cents pound, while in 1890 1t was over
80 cents. During the past ten years
the price of good hops has fluctuated
between 10 cents and 81 . pound. The
great variations IN yield of hops, and
the uncertainties of the crop. are so
marked that in some states its cultiva-
ton is nearly abandoned. Tho report
of the United States treasury depart
ment shows that the annual consump-
ton OF malt liquors which require
hops in Their manufacturer TO have
been more than doubled in ten years,
having been 1920, ,l65 gallons in 1850
and 800, 792, 1896 in 1889.

cOMWElL'S ELOQUENT LECTURE.

Mt Hartul2usn Hall.

He Is Directed by an Immense Audience
at Hartnlan's Hall.
An immense audience greeted Rus
sell Ii. Conweli Al Hartman's hall last
evening, and listened with delight to
his lecture ''The Silver Crown, or Born
q KING" The thoughts embodied in
this lecture, the speaker said, were
cleaned from fabulous tradition told
him by an old gnide IN India, of how a
king was found for the people. The
king should lie one whom ANIMALS fol-
lowed, whom the sun served, whom
water obeyed. and whom all men loved.
The speaker thought these four attri-
butes would make all who possessed
them successful in whatever walk Of
life they tread. Men who do not love
horses and dogs and have no sympathy
for = COW or q hen, have the pity OF Mr..
Conwell, who thinks it is one of the
highest duties to mankind TO educate
and develop animal life to higher
degree. The man so doing will benefit
all mpnklnd. The point that "He is
the successful nan who notices eOme-
thing other men do not see," was en-
phssIzed again and again during the
lecture by copious illustrations-ilfus.
trations both humorous and apt.
A great hit was made by
the lecturer in his description
OF oratory, and the vital difference
between it and elocution. "Oratory is
the science of effective speech" !"
said be, "elocution 10 fanciful
utterance. If you call . dog
and he comes-that is oratory.
Ii you call him and he runs away-thxt
is elocution." "When men laugh they
live" was one of the strong arguments
made, and Mr.. Conwell succeeded IN
making everyone in the house feel very
much alive Tor more than two hours.
Mr. ConweIl is very busy man. Be-
sides being pastor of large church, he
gives every year 100 lectures In the DIFF
ferent cities of the county. For each
lecture he receives 800, but this money
Is not for his own personal benefit, but
is turned over by him for the mainten-
ancc of home for workingmen which
