THE FRENCH DIRECTORY.
More Than 10000 Population and More
Than 1900 Voters.

LIE Worcester Canadien, the annual di-
rectory of the French Canadian residents
of this city, made its appearance Satur-
day. 1t is, as usual compiled and pub
lished by j. Arthur Roy & Son. 1t is a
bigger book this year than ever before,
containing 100 pages, to 1856 last year. 1t
shows healthful growth among the
French speaking citizens, the names in
the directory numbering 1910, against $3.50
last year. This indicates a French popu-
lation of more than 10000. The little book
is Illustrated with portraits of Mayor
Dodge and many leading French-CaI1a-
dans and is a perfect mine of information
relative to the French churches, charita-
BILE institutions and societies.
An interesting bit of information regard
ing the st. Jean Baptiste Society is that
since it was founded in 1868 it has received
$3.50 290. 70, and paid out in insurance of
men S69, 96S; insurance of women, ST.

ber 2S91. The growth of the French voting
population, due largely to the formation
of the naturalization clubs in wards 3, 8 and

into French by Mr. Roy, is shown by the
following figures, which give the number
of French-Canadians qualified to vote in
successive years. 1886, 375; 49, 413; 'SS,
