The Burmese Census.

The last census of Burma was the most systematic and accurate ever taken, and shows population, all told, of 8,08S,014, including 3,0O0,0Oo in the territory conquered during the last dec ade and 330, 900 in the Shan states. Of lower Burma this is the third cen sus, and of the northern portion the first. The whole province is about the size of Great Britain and Ireland, and the salutary rule which Britain main tains there is shown in the increase of the population, which has doubled since Lord Dalhousie's time and increased one-quarter in the last ten years.

Women Hypnotixed Him.

Jesse Johnson, son of wealthy Mis- sissippi cotton planter, has filed suit for divorce at Perry, o. T., against his wife, Mariana Johnson. He was in love with girl at home of foreign birth. His father did not want him to marry at IT and sent him to school at Worces- ter, Mass. During the first vacation the father sent him to Asbury Park for the summer to keep him from his first love.
 There he met q Miss Mynell, who was there with her parents and said her home was New York city. She was many years Johnson's S senior. Johnson said the woman hypnotized him, and they were married. the woman paying the expenses. A few days later she left, and he has never seen nor heard of her since. Chicago Tribune.

IT is amusing to witness the radi- cal free-silver country papers of Ar kansas and the South that are always denouncing the gold-bug cap italists of the East as robbers and enemies of the prosperity of the couatry, fall down before these same capitalists when they visit their To- cality with view of investment and development. Then they are not horrid and atrocious monsters, but are heroes of the day, and are courted and offered every possible induce ment to locate or invest in their midst. Can 1t be that this hostility and aversion usually shown is case of "sour grapes?p
