NC sniIors, Hencoon.
From the Kansas Civ star


A sailorman Is fond of pets, but a ship
is no place for animal life. However, there
are few ships. sail or steam, that do not
carry out of port a COOP of hens and >
Rooster. These seem to be for company,
or association, or something of the sort,
for the Oldest mariner never heard Of one
of the hens being killed for the mess, and
hen at sea absolutely refuses to lay eggs
and small blame to them.
The hen coop is generally placed on the
forward deck, near the fo'c'sle, in which
the sailors live. They have a box of sand
In which to roll and are made as COM
Portable as possible. After one or two voy-
ages the hens become excellent sailors
and It Is queer sight to see them balance
themselves on their sealegs when the snap
losses and rolls
When the ship Is 10 dock the fowls are
always driven into their coop and kept
there. until the ship is at sea, when they
are released and given the freedom Of the
deck. At night they seek the shelter Ok
their coon of their own accord,

EARTH'S MILLIONS.
A Universal Census to BE Taken for
the First Time.

the First Itmes
From the London Mail.
The enormous difficulty of the taking
the census of the worlds inhabitants,
which 1t is proposed TO publish at Berne
An 1901. becomes apparent when one con-
siders that at least two-thirds, and per-
haps, three-quarters, of the inhabitants of
our planet dwell in lands none of which
have yet been civilized, and many of
which still remain In a condition of saw
agery Yet the purpose Is, as far as pos
sibe to include in the enumeration every
human being on whom the sun rises on a
particular day in the year 1900. Explorers
and censustakers are to be sent TO every
attainable point on the globe for the pur-
pose Such is the scheme. 1t looks Inn
practicable. An attempt has recently been
made to take a complete census of Rus
STA, and this viii aid the new undertaking
immensely. During his tour in Europe
Ii Hung Chank became interested in the
proposed census of the word and, it is as
serted promised his cooperation and as
slstance in the work.
China forms the greatest factor of I'M
certainty in estimating the population of
the globe. Estimates of the number Of
inhabitants in China vary sometimes by
1,COo. 900 or 100000 and even the popula-
ton of the chief cities can only be guessed
at. 30, TOO 4ALttCd pito6IAS an GIlOI
field of mysteries and difficulties. Esti-
mates of its total population are constant
" varying, because explorers frequently
come upon knots and centers of population
the real extent Of which is unknown. The
most careful statisticians admit that their
estimates of the population OF Africa may
be as much as 100000 out OF Il. West of
India are the vast lands that Alexander
overran in his conQuest-Afghanista
Persia, and Turkey in Asia. How many
scores of millions or even hundreds of
millions may they not contain? Many of
the uplands OF Persia are practically IN
known to the civilized world but they can
support great population. No one knows
how many people Arabia contains.
No one knows how many Esqumaux
there are dwelling in the lands of eternal
ice that encircle the north pole; many Of
the islands Of the vast Pacific swarm with
Inhabitants living on the open bounty Of
nature, whose free and careless life has
captivated the Imagination Of highly Gull
tlvated men like Robert Louis Stevenson;
andswhen the census is completed. If 1t
prove practicable what will il probably
show the total population of the globe to
be?

lin did. That of 1912 suggests that formal
peace oYertures are to be made through
terms they can grant. If the precedent
OF the Mexican war were followed, then
one of the officials of Spain's foreign Of
hce could come to Washington and make
personal oYertures toward peace. The pre-
cedents show that there Is no fixed proce-
dure, under international law, toward
restoration of peace, and that the form
adopted is dictated mainly by expedlency.
