that he will meet a local Wheelman, or
other native who will inform him that
yellow sand and mud will clog the

the train for the distance, and must
pay for transportation Of his wheel as
we'll as his own, and these little rides
occur often in taking interstate trips or

CITY HALL NOTES
The Census Taking Is Almost Over.
Pure Food Delegates

The work Of taking the city census is
rapidly drawing to a close, and the last
OF the enumerators, with the possible
exception of those in Chinatown, will
conclude their labors today. There is
no question but what the 100, 900 mark
will be exceeded. after all alterations,
duplicates, etc, are eliminated, though
the surplus will not be as large as was at
first expected. Up to Saturday night
99,292 names had been regularly counted
and classified, and yesterday about 900
additional names were turned in. OF this
number 800 were Cinnamon, 168 were the
residents of block on Grand avenue
which had been entirely overlooked by
the enumerators, and something over
100 were scattering. N. p. Blackstone
& Co. sent in a list of their employees
which had been asked for by the enum-
orator, and after the firm had obligingly
made 1t out for him, he had failed to call
for it, and there are doubtless many 9TH
er similar cases throughout the city.
1t is estimated that at the very least
5000 names have been overlooked by the
enumerators, but this is not altogether
their fault. Keepers of lodging houses,
for some reason, have been very averse
to giving information as to the names OF

A Bicycler Badly Injured

s. ]. jacobson, a jeweler, who has been
doing business at 106 West SecondIstreet
for some time past is now lying at his
home, 526 East Sixth street, with his
breast-bone and rib broken, his con-
dition being critical.
Mr. Jacobson's injuries were received
about noon on Sunday. He was going
down Main street between Second and
Third on his bicycle. Seeing a street
car coming up, he kept to the right.
when suddenly small single rig that
was following the car so closely that
he could not see it, turned out in front
of him, and collision took place. One
of the shafts of the wagon struck him
IN the breast with terrible force.
Mr.. Jacobson in a few minutes seemed
to recover from the shock and walked
with a friend up to the office of DR..
William Dodge, in the California bank
building. After his injuries had been
dressed he was conveyed to his home
in a carriage His condition last even
ing was serious, as the breast-bone
had pressed in upon the lung and a
hemorrhage was feared as the result.
No talking, and absolute quiet was
enjoined upon the injured man. If his
injuries do not prove fatal it will be
several months before he can fully re-
cover.
The man driving the rig who turned
out on the wrong side, did not wait after
the collision to ascertain the injuries
to Mr.. Jacobson, but drove rapidly on,
and his name could not be learned.

the enumerators,e evidently thinking that
there might be something behind It, and
1t has been impossible to convince them
to the contrary. Since the publication
in the papers. asking citizens who have
been overlooked by the enumerators to
send in their names, quite a number
have done so. among them being some of
