The State Census.

Columbus Democrat: Enough cen
| sus returns have been completed
to show that the population of Wis
consin will be less than 100000
The average rate of increase in the
cities of the state which have reported
is about Is per cent. The Milwaukee
census is not yet completed, but it is
expected to give that city a popula-
ton of about 100000, an increase
ofsome $4,000 La Crosse, dis in 1890,
is still the second city, while if Super
Tor makes good it's claim to %, 500
population it will rank third, leaving
Oshkosh and Racine as fourth and
fifth respectively. The Superior CEN
sus is not quite complete, but es-
Inmates vary from 81, 900 to %, 500,
either giving that city the third place
in the list. Poor Eau Claire drops
from fifth place to seventh, and only
holds that by scant majority over
Green Bay, which since the annexation
of Fort Howard, is a strong bidder
for metropolitan honors.
The largest percentage ofincrease is
shown at Rhinelander of SO per cent.
Superior is next in the ratio of in
crease, although the figures of popu-
lation are disappointment to the
boomers of that city. Menasha's in
crease is next, and other cities in
which the percentage of increase is
above the approximate average Of is
per cent. are Milwaukee, Green Bay,
Marshfield, Sheboygan, Merrill, Two
Rivers, Appleton, Kenosha, Oshkosh,
Racine, Madison, Ashland, Wausau,
Beaver Dam, De Pere
and Columbus. The only two cities
in which a decrease is reported are
and Black River Falls.

alton and percentage Of increase
over 1890, emitting fractions, of the

deafness, fits, catarrh, cancers, without
the use Of a knife and no pain, ard all
other cases Of equal Importance. He
don't ask any question, but diagnoses
all cases and tells you exactly the ma
ture of your ailments. Miss Calestine
Hart, Of Milwaukee, says: Il suffered
with cancer for three years and L was

TRAINED CATS.
The Feats = Snowman In England Has
Taught Them to Do.

The Feats = Snowman In England Has
Taught Them to Do.
A Snowman in England, Clarke by
name, has succeeded in training large
number OF cats to perform remarkable
tricks One Of these is to walk over a
long line of living rats, mice and ca
naries, stepping very carefully between
the f1uttering little bodies Of birds and
mice and harming none Of them. An
other cat climbs by a rope to the roof,
seizes the handle of a parachute and de-
sends by it to the ground from con-
siderable height.
Mr.. Clarke repeats what is we'll
known-that the cat is the most difficult
Of animals to train to the performance
of tricks. He has trained bears, lions,
leopards, tigers and other wild animals
and finds them teachable and submissive
when compared with cats. The cat in
deed can never be SO far conquered that
her performances may be depended on.
Mr.. Clarke's entertainment includes
only 80 trained cats, but he has to take
with him 60, in order that he may have
substitutes for those that will not per-
form.
He calls the cat ''hopeless bundle
OF sansibilities. Strike her once, though
only by accident, and she will never
perform again. Kindness is not only
polite, but absolutely necessary. Some
OF his cats it took him four years of
ceaseless effort to train.
Mr.. Clarke's cats are extremely fond
OF him. When he enters his Scat sta
ble, - the mewing is prodigous, and he
is Instantly buried in moving mantle
Of cats.
The difficulty in the cats training
does not lie in the animal s intelligence,
but in her disposition. She is as clever
in her tricks, if she likes to do them, as
a dog, but she does not wish to subor-
dinate her will to that of any living
creature. She does what she wants to
do only and will perform, if she perform
at all, only to please herself.
Those that have seen cats engaged in
boxing matches will not be surprised to
learn that Mr.. Clarke has succeeded in
training two cats to box very scien-
tifcally.
The animals that walk over the chains
Of rats, mice and canaries without
touching them are only six in number.
Any Of the others would help themselves
to these appetizing creatures without
computations. These six were brought
up from their earliest infancy in cages
with rats, mice and birds and live with
them constantly.-Youth Is Companion.
