POPULATION MOVES WEST.
About Century Ago the Center Was
Slightly East of Baltimore.

Nothing illustrates the marvellous
growth of our country more graphically
than the rapid yet steady pace which
the center of poulation in the United
States has made its westward march.
In 1870. the time of taking the first CEN
sus, the center of population was twen-
ty-three miles east of Baltimore, in the
upper end Of Chesapeake Bay. Between
that time and 1900 it moved forty-one
miles, or to a spot eighteen miles direct
ly west of Baltimore. During the de-
cade which ended in 1910 the west
ward movement was not so rapid, be-
ing only thirty-six miles, which locat-
ed the center of population at that time
forty miles northwest by west of Wash
ington. Between 1910 and 1920 it made
marvellous strides, landing sixteen miles
north of Woodstock, Va, which was
fifty miles from the spot occupied by
the center in 1910. During the decade
which ended with 1880 it moved only
thirty-nine miles. this taking it to a
spot nineteen miles west southwest of
Morsefied, w. Va, BY 1910 it had
moved west by south q. distance of f1f-
ty-five miles. or to place sixteen miles
south of Clarksville, w. Va. Between
1910 and 1850 another move of fifty
five miles was made, and the census
report of the latter year informed the
curious reader that 1.-The center of pop
uIation is now twenty-three miles
southeast of Parkersburg,' which is
now in the State of West Virginia
When the census of 1860 was taken it
was found that the center of popula-
ton was a spot in the middle of the
Scioto River, twenty miles south of
Chillicothe, o. In 1870 it was still in
Ohio, but had climbed out of the river
and moved to q spot forty-eight miles
east of north from Cincinnati. Between
1870 and 1880 the center of population
passed almost directly through Cincin-
natl, moving west by south, and when
the census was taken in the latter year
it was located eight miles southwest of
the city above named. Between 1880
and 1890 it moved into the Hoosier
State, and was found, when the last
decennial census was taken, to be
twenty miles east of Columbus. Ind.
The greatest distance the center moved
during any ten years was between 1870
and 1880, when it Travelled fifty-eight
miles. The least was between 1900 and
1910, thirty-six miles.-St Louis Re-

months transcontinental trip, during
which he made an inspection of the
properties in which he is interested.
To a reporter he said:
MY trip to the Pacific Coast was the
first in two years, and I found things
generally in good condition. All through
the West and far West business is
picking up. There is a general lifting
of the depression in trade, and it seems
to me that the outlook is decidedly en-
couraging. The railway situation in
the West is improving, and although
there has been much agrarian legisla-
ton people are beginning to awaken to
the fact that the railroads should be
protected. AS to the Supreme Court
decision in the trans Missouri case, I
was not at all disturbed by it. OF
course, it was of the highest import
ance to the railroads, but l am strong
in the belief that the railroads viii not

NEVADA CITY, June 1.-The Cor

a divided verdict tonight, two jurors
finding that Mrs. Gehrig was murdered

WASHINGTON, June 1.-The inter-

of the House of Representatives and
the English House of Commons to-day
resulted in a draw, each side having
won and lost two games, and one being

LONDON, June 1.-The scene to-
night in room No. u of the House of
Commons, where the British team play

previous night The chief difference
was in the increasing excitement at
each approaching termination of the
contest. But the anxiety was more
felt than seen, and not an echo of it
was allowed to reach the players them
selves. There were whispered COM
mentS that Mr.. Jones was so terribly
slow in his moves that he was obliged
to hasten unduly his final plays; that
Mr.. Wilson was playing a good steady
game, and that in the end everything
might turn on Mr.. Parnell. But no
hint of this was allowed to get to them.

drew near, showed his excitement Mr.,
