per second, with a pressure Of only 10000
pounds 10 the square inch, was attained. With

The Census Bureau has issued a bulletin re-

guishcd from the urban, population Of the
country. In 1890 the population was nearly
Is times as great as 10 was IN 1870. while dur
ing the century the settled area was increased
only about eightiold. The increase in popula-
tion in general has gone on AZ n much more
rapid rate than that of the settled area. Dur
iug he last decade the inrOads upon the un-
settled region has been unprecedented IN
amount, not less than 357,755 square miles
having been redeemed, exceeding by oO.35i
square miles the area settled between 1870 and
1850 Settlements have spread westward up
the slope Of the plains until they have joined
the settlements in Colorado, thus forming a
continuous settlement from the East 10 the
Rocky Mountains. Practically the whole State
Of Kansas has become a settled region, aud the
unsettled area Of Nebraska has been reduced
TO about onc-third Of what il was 10 years ago.
Oregon and Washington show equally rapid
progress toward settlement and California, al

crease in population, has made great inrOads
upon the unsettled regions, especially in tho
