Faatnras of the Census Of Virginia.

Features Of the Census Of Virginia.
The revised figures of the Census Bureau
give the grand total of the population OF
Virginia at l,655, $40 as against 1,5l2,565 in
1880 and ], 225, 1863 in 1870. BY races the CON-
parison of 1880 and 1890 is as follows
White Colored.
1901 .........S S0,s5s 63I.707
isa0 1,0i4,6S0 64o,SS7
We had in 1890, also. 436 Indians, Chinese,
and japanese.
This shows that in the last decade the
negro population of Virginia has been
nearly stationary, while the whites have in
creased their numbers by 1882.
In 1880 the white majority in this State
was 249. f51; now it is 373,S2S.
We doubt if there are many people in
| this Common wealth who were prepared
| for this exhibit, which without other ex-
planstion we must attribute to two
cause.-the greater death-rate of the ne
gro race and large emigration to other
States. Whites, too, in great numbers
have removed from Virginia, but We have
received considerable addition TO our white
population and very little TO our black
population from other States.
In the face of the fact that the census
was carelessly taken in Virginia it is clear
that the disproportion of the two races is
rapidly increasing in this commonwealth.
Here is O text for a volume of argument
and speculation.
The general census returns (such as we
published Sunday give the cities added II
with their counties. and here are some Of
the details:

Africa has aroused great deal of public
curiosity. Mr.. Cross, the Liverpool
naturalist in order TO meet this demand
gave orders to his agents to obtain at any
price the best specimen they could OF this
peculiar race, which seems to supply the
long-sought-for missing link between the
ape and man. After a long and tedious
search in the depths of the dark continent
a remarkable female pigmy was procured
from native tribe, by which she had been
captured and was brought safely TO Liver
pool. She is 80 inches in hight, of well
developed body, and jet black complexion,
with peculiarly monkeyish expression
and a nose so fiat that the lower part of
her face resembles closely the muzzle Of

Another decidedly human accomplishment
she has also acquired-she smokes the best

The crop report OF the Michigan wealth err
bureau for week ofJune % indicates that the
weather conditions of the past week have
been generally favorable TO all crops ex-
oept where there was little or no rainfall
Cor the past two weeks, as has beer the
case ia portions of Huron and st. Clair
counties, so that the ground is very dry
and has materially shortened the hay crop.
Wheat is reported as ripening fast and in
the southern section cutting will begin
next week. Haying has progressed rapidly
during the week and the crop has been
secured in good shape. The crop will not
come up TO the average on account of the
drought during May. Corn, oats and
potatoes are reported as doing very well
during the week. A large acreage OF
beans have been planted in Livingston
csunty. and some few are still planting
this crop. The rainfall in the northern
section during the past two weeks has
been sufficient to greatly improve the
crops, but tho long continued drought
daring Mag will reduce the average on
grass and wheat. Potatoes are reported
In excellent condition. The hot, dry
weather Of the latter part of the week has
been slightly unfavorable to the crops on
account of the deficiency of rainfall during
the week.

this week. The estate Of Andrew j.

900 TO SIP, 900, 900, is the prize. John A.
Davis, a former resident of Chicago,

holds by virtue OF his deceased brothers
will. Henry A Root of New York, a
nephew Of the dead millionaire, disputes
the Chicago mans rights to possess the
estate. He claims the will is a forgery
and says he has the witnesses to prove it.
Robert G. Ingersoll and Attorney Meyer

that the will which settles the vast estate
on the Chicago man is not genuine.

Six Men Killed and 100000 Worth
of Property DESTROYED.


MT. CARMEL, Pa, June 29.-The Patter-
son coal company's breaker. located at
Natalie, a village north Of this city, was
destroyed by cyclone Friday afternoon,
and the following persons were killed: J.
N. Blossom. Hawley, Pa; j. Bentley
Dodson, Shickshiny, Pa; Richard Roberts,
Luzerne; VIM. Lodge, Luzerne, Pa. The
breaker was located on the summit of the
big mountain, about 1, 600 feet above the
sea level. II ran almost due east and
west. The structure was about 800 feet
in length and tho highest point was 1875
feet Lodge and Roberts and the two
unknown men were skaters and were
engaged In roofing the breaker at the time
OF the accident The other two killed
were carpenters and met their death while
employed at work on the interior Of the
breaker. Shortly after noon the sky in
the north became black and suddenly a
fash illuminated the horizon, thunder
peal that shocked all the neighborhood
followed, and the next minute the terrible
wind gust gathered up the mighty structure
as though it were feather and whirl-
ing it around, dashed it TO ruin. The men
were mangled almost beyond recognition.
The breaker was one Of the largest in the
region. its capacity being about 40, 900 tons
per month. The cost OF its erection
exceeded 500, 200. The loss falls on
Wilkesbarre, Pittsburg and Philadelphia
capitalists.
