Some of the Results of the Census In.
quiries Throughout the Country.
The count of the farm and home tran.
Scripts, made in accordance with the mort
gage collection clause of the Census act, has
been completed by ths Census Office at
Washington. The figures are subject
to slight notifications. There were re.
turned by the enumerators 2,49l $3.50
farms and MONIES occupied by owners which
are incumbered by mortgages. This number
includes some farms and homes about which
the enumerators made no report and which
belong partly to the class Of hire and partly
to the class Of owned free, as wei as partly
to the class Of owned and incumbered.
Until this unknown quantity, dus to the
failure Of the enumerators, is elimlnated, it
may be regarded as approximately true that
two and quarter million families OF the
twelve and one-half million families Of the
United States occupy and own incumbered
farms and homes, and that ten and one-quar-
ter million families occupy farms and homes
that are either hired or owned free.
The preliminary results indicate that
the average debt for farm in Iowa is
s12s3; home. $7l9; average for farm and
home, Sll40. II these averages hold good
for the Union, the iucumorancs on the

SHOCKING EXECUTION,
Two Desperate Murderers Gull.
lOtined In Paris.
One Fights For His Life Under
the Knife,

The execution Of young Berland and Dore.
two accomplices Of the woman Berland in
what's known as the Courbevoie murder.
took place ii Paris France, on a recent
morning. The usual crowds Of people had
gathered during the night and ear rly that
morning on the famous Place de La Roouette.
where all Paris executions by the guillotine
take place. The officers managed to main
tain praiseworthy degree Of order, in view
OF the mixed, rough, lsw-defying concourse
Of people they had to deal with.
Dore, when he was aroused at an early
hour, rubbed his eyes, scowled at his visf.
tors, and then, guessing the object of their
coming, be relapsed into state Of stolid in.
difference. and seemed, to all outward ap-
pearances, to be utterly Indifferent as to
what was taking place. He dressed himself
calmly and, under the circumstances, quick
ly, and thanked the prison officials in firm,
low voice for the kindness which they had
shown him. Dore, however, did not reply
to the words addressed to him by pAbbs
Faure, the well-known prison chaplain.
Dore left his cell and the prison few min
utes Later with extreme composure, but he
faltered and trembled as he reached
the shadow OF the red-paints1 up-
rights of, the guillotine and caught sight
OF the deadly shining knife. The execution
ers helped him up the steps to the platform
OF the guillotine, and quickly threw him
upon the bascule, strapped him down, slid
his head into the lunette, and In a second or
so the knife fell, and Dore's head rolled into
the sawdust-H1led basket. 60 -.
Young Berland died in an entirely differ
ent manner. When he was awakened he
showed considerable amount of bravado,
and remarked, with q hideous smile, "No
more card.playing for me-" In conversation
with the prison officials and executioners
while his toilet was being made. Berland
showed that he resented his mothers re-
prieve, and that he was much disappointed
that she was not to die with him. When all
the preparations for death were made, Ber-
land walked jauntily across the prison yard,
and maintained his air of bravado and cool
impudence until he reached the platform Of
the guillotine. Just as the executioners were
upon the point Of throwing him upon the
bascule, or sliding plank, to which he was
to be strapped previous to being pushed
beneath the knife, Berland made q
desperate resistance. and terrible
scene took place in full view of the thousands
of eager spectators. In spite Of his strug.
giles. however. the executionars and guards
held Berland upon the scafPold and eventually
threw him upon the fatal plank, slid him be-
meath the grim uprights and, as the young
criminal was wrirhing furiously, the knife
fell, and Berland's head rolled into the
basket
No sooner had this occurred than the
crowds, with greatrush, broke through the
up to the scaffold. gloated over the blood
stained apparatus, some Of the most horrible
