A BUDGET FROM BEAUMONT
An Increase In the Number Of School
Children.
NECESSITY FOR TIE FEDERAL COURT
Judge bryant Said So from the
Bench--TwO wcddinRs--Thc Har-
ris Murdcr--Notes.

Beaumont, Texas. juno 9,--The census
takers for the various school districts in
the county have finished their work and
the reports. which have been turned over
to Judge Gray, show that outside the corr
porate limits OF Beaumont there are lSt9
children within the scholastic age In JEFF
ferson county. This is an increase of lao
over tho census OF 1897, when the total
reached 1903. This increase. while appar-
entity small. when circumstances are CON
sidered 1t evidences rapid increase in
the population in the county, For instance,
the school census of 1897 included children
living in Calder addition and other terri
tory added to the corporation. 1t is esti-
mated that between $50 and 200 childreA
within the scholastic age live in this ter
ritory. and II this be added instead of
taking from the county school census of
1898 1t would show an increase OF more
than 300. which means an increase In the
rural and town population of over 1900
during the twelve months past.
