He would, therefore, notify the Leris-
lature that day of his declination of the
United States senatorship to which he
had been elected.
Our difficulties. however, were not
yet ended. Lieutenant Governor Cox
was still to be dealt with. He had made
all arrangements for his inauguration
that day at noon, and it was necessary
to notify him that his hopes would be
blasted This was a delicate task and
one none Of us liked to perform. At last
Mr.. Clark, who feared neither man nor
devil, said:

The II tn census, which is now prac-
tically completed, ha, cost SO, 900, 600,
exclusive ofprint:ng and binding, says
the Baltimore American. 1t will fill
% quarto volumes of about a 1000
pages each and four smaller volumes. 1t
is the most complete census ever taken
by any government A look at some of
its results will be instructive. First,
total population. 62,622, $50; males,
80, 067 $50; females, 80, 554, 270; white,
54,9S3, 800; negro, 7 40, O4O; Chinese,
lO7, AIS; japanese, 2,O39; civilized In
dams. IS, SOC.
The number of school age, from 3 to
90 years, was %, 447 1902 and the total
enrolment in all the schools was a.
1913, $40, employing 422, 929 teachers.
The total annual expenditure IN the pub
lie schools was SI3O,O65 ,537, more
than was spent by any two other nations
on earth.
1f manufactures there were 355 IS,
employing 4,712 ,622 persons, who
we're paid wages of 50, JIG, $40,
and producing in 1890 goods valued at
50, 1862 ,437 ,2S3. a showing unequaled
in the world
In agriculture the statistics show A.
SOB, GAL farms, valued at S13, 279, 252,-
GAO.
The total assessed valuation Of all
taxed property was S25, Alb, 173, AIS.
So, the farms are worth more than one
half of the taxed wealth of the country.
In this, too, the United States leads the
procession
The mineral products aggregated
1857 ,230, 662 for 1889. The fisheries
employed 1913, 34S persons. The rail-
roads had 157 ,562 miles of track, The
143 religious denominations had 1885,
1877 organizations. There were 4,777,-
Cos mortgages The total indebted
ness-national, State, county and city
was S2,026, 170,546.
These are few of the many results.
They give bold outline of the tremen-
dous Importance of the country. They
show how we are leading the world in
things. A day, even an hour,
spent with census figures leaves a great
i'm preston on the mind.

between the plastering and weather
boards u quantity of plug tobacco that
had been hidden away for no one
knows how long. 1t is dry and hard.
and the plugs measure four inches in
length, n and a half wide and about
a quarter of an inch in thickness. Who
put it where found no one can tell, but
it is said to be of a brand manufactured
in this county before the war by a man
named Kitsmiller, and is said to have
been a popular make. The plugs are
black and OF home grown leaf. Who
knows anything about it?
