WORK OF THE CENSUS.
Census Committee 10 Draft Dill Pro
yIdIng for Taking of the
Twelfth Count.

As soon as Representative Hopkins
is able to find committee-room he will
call a meeting of the census committee
to draft bill providing for the taking
OF the twelfth census. The scope of the
next census will not be so extensive as
the last one, and 1t Is the intention of
the Illinois member to frame bill
which will provide that the result of the
work OF the census takers will be In the
hands of the public within two years
after the gathering of the information
has been concluded, and not have the
reports issued every six months or so
for period Of eight or ten years, as has
been the case in the past. The collect
ors will not go into as many dry sta
tlstics as has heretofore been the case.
as II Is believed the field is covered by
the bureau of statistics of the treasury
department. Much of the work which
was performed by the last census TAX
ers has been duplicated by that bu-
reau, and as II was useless waste Of la
Dor and public money it will be avoided
in the future. The measure which will
be framed by this committee will, in all
probability, provide. for a permane Mt
census bureau.

MARcHEoNEss IN woRKHousE.
Wife of Marquis OF Donegal Seeks
Assistance Because OF Des-
titutiOn.

The mRrchioness of Donegal ate her
Christmas dinner In London work.
house. III, miserably clad and appur-
emily In acute destitution, she applied
the other day for admittance to the
Great Northern hospital, from which
place she was removed to the Islington
workhouse inarmary. She, explained
that she was homeless and not willing
10 communicate with her wealthy
friends or with her husband, who is
suffering from pneumonia.
The story Of the life of the marchion-
ess Is painful. She left her husband
in 1879 and In 1889 instituted separa-
ton proceedings, with which counter
charges of misconduct were made.
Unsavory details of their conjugal
life were also banded about. The
marchioness failed to obtain alimony
and has since received assistance from
friends. She was last heard of In May
Of the present year, when she broke
her leg In hotel elevator and was
taken to hospital.
The marquis has had q troubled
financial career. He was declared a
bankrupt in 1889, with liabilities esti-
mated at R61s,s16. He then said he
considered he was justified in raising
half q million of money in view of the
fact that he had prospects of succeed
ing to an estate of G $4,000 year. But
owing to the entail he only succeeded
to G1s0 a year. He was mixed up in
financial fotstiSn this year, when he
lent his name to company prospectus
which caused the Star to criticise him
as "a peer with arrecord of disgracing
the order to which he belonged"

Women start q Determined Fight
Against COnEressman-Eiect
Roberts, of Utah.

The members of the Woman's Board
OF Home Missions of the Presbyterian
church held q meeting the other day
TO protest against the admission TO the
house of representatives of Brigham
Ii. Roberts, the polygamist, who has
been elected from Utah. The meeting
was held in the lecture hall In the
Presbyterian building at Fifth avenue
and Twentieth street, New York city.
There was good attendance, with q
few men in the audience.
Rev. william r. Campbell, of Salt
Lake city, Utah, was introduced. In
part he spoke as follows:
I'VE are upon the eve of the fiercest
battle that has ever been waged by
Mormonism against our Christian civ
ilization. Mormonism was never 80
strong, SO we'll equipped, SO impreg-
nably intrenched, SO thoroughly unit
ed, 50 aggressive, SO triumphant as
to-day.
"Mr. Young, the grandson of Brig
ham Young, Is with us in this fight,
not because of his relationship to Brig
ham Young, but because of his rela-
tionship to Mrs. Stenhouse, that heroic
woman who dared to throw off the
yoke of Mormonism for herself and her
entire family and then to make most
splendid fight to save her sisters from
worse than Egyptian bondage and
her adopted country from the disgrace
and curse of polygamy."

A RoMANTIc CASE.
Miss Bessie Cannon and . Former
Sweetheart Reunited By the
Fortunes of War.

Miss Bessie Cannon, niece of the Hi
nois, congressman, has been married at
Washington to John Herbert Osborne,
an attache OF the war department. They
were children together in Montezuma,
Ind, and later were betrothed, but be-
came separated by force of circum-
stances. Miss Cannon came to Wash
ington some time ago and secured
berth In the navy department. Young
Osborne Travelled extensively through
out the west and had lost sight of his
old sweetheart. When the war broke
out ne enlisted in the signal corps from
Indiana, and at its conclusion was de-
tailed for duty in the war department,
where he met Miss Cannon once more,

Hail Cnine, who is now ut GredA cas-
tie, Isle of Man, contributes long ar
ticle to the London Daily Telegraph
entitled Life In America" He says In
part;
'It does not require uny knowledge
in economic problems to see that in one
important particular America Is mas
ter of the world. Already that nmaz-
ing country nbsc RIBS all the races of the
earth, and every race that II absorbs II
feeds and strengthens. IL may be
stated as sure though astounding
fact that no civilized race whatever has
yet been known to decline or diminish
on American soil.
THE quest OF material prosperity by
no means absorbs the energies of the
American people. 1t would be impossi.
BILE to find among the nations of the
world more readers to the thousand of
population. And Americans not only
read more than we do they read bet
ter No other nation pays so much at-
tention TO the education OF its women
and in no other country does woman
stand so high or play so serious part
"The religious life OF America is ac.
tive to the point of fostering nearly
every crazy notion that takes the. form
of faith. AS for the higher religiouslife
of Americans, there is no country
where that great wave Is more felt
which is now carrying the Christlan
church back othe early ideals of Chris
tianity. The work of the slums il
splendidly done both by men and
women. In America, where there Is no
state church, reverence for the churcl
and the things of the church is greater
than 1t has ever seemed to me to be In
England or even in Rome.
81 love America because 1t is big anC
because Its bigness is constantly i'm
pressing the imagination and stimulat
ing the heart. ] love its people because
they are free, with the freedom which
the rest of the world takeE as by stealtI
and which they claim openly as theil
right. / love them because they art
the most Industrious, earnest, ACTIVE
and ingenious people on earth, because
they are the most moral and religious
and, above all, the most sober peopl'
In the world; because, in spite of all thu
shallow judgments of superficial oh
servers, they are the most childlike il

Consul at MOntevideO Reports ThRt
American Product Is Fast Cap
turing the Markets There.

According to Consul Swain at Monte
video, the United States has entered
upon another and important line in its
commercial expansion presenting the
greatest possibilities to u good com
modify. He says he is gratified to re-
port the fact that American coal has
come into the River Plata in active
competition with the Welsh coal. Ever
since coal has been used as n steam
making fuel, ,the English coal yards have
had n complete monopoly Of that mar
ct until last July, when the American
company (the POcahontas company
established itself on the River Plata
and secured contracts to the amount OF
$1,000 The consul says that three
large cargoes of American coal already
have arrived and been eagerly taken,
and he adds proudly that American
eoalhas come to stay in these markets"

What win ne the Future OF the cen-
trai American stntest : United
States should own Them.

A correspondent OF the New York
Sun writes as follows:
''The collapse of the United States
Of Central America, composed of the
republics OF Nicaragua, Honduras and
Salvador, after an existence OF just one
month, seems like conclusive evidences
of inherent capacity for stable govern
ment.
"The constant disorder that has be-
come chronic in these petty states, mis-
called republics. Is reproach to tie
United States and Mexico, and an end
ought to be put TO II now, while we are
abating nuisances.
"The only way in whiSh this can ever
lie accomplished Is in the incorporation
Of Guatemala, Honduras and San Sal
vadorinto the federal republic of Mex
leo, which is stable enough and strong
enough to preserve order in those vol
cnnic states. The inhabitants are,
moreover, of the same race and speak
the same language.
"nhere are many reasons why the
United States should own absolutely
NiCdiuSud, OOSta liCu, NeIuBud dho
Panama. The completion of the Pan
anna canal, which may be looked for
some day, and the building of the Mic
aragua canal at n very early day will
make II imperative that this country
obtains sole control of the territ ories
through which those ocean ways will
pass. in no way can that control be
SO well established as by ownership of
the territory.
There would be a distinct gain all
around; good government for those
territories for one thing, and no for
eigu palaver over the neutrality of the
canals for another. preteXts would
have to be hunted up to justify such II
course. The warrant for it has existed
for generations. The recent dickering
on the part of Nicaragua with rival
companies for concessions is not cal
culated to promote the best interests
of the United States, and is only anotll-
er argument in favor of bringing TO
an end an intolerable condition of af-
fairs ih Central America"

PROUD OF HIS VOICE.
The Gear Pays Himself n Compliment
Before an AppreciatIve
COurt Audience.

A letter from st. Petersburg relates
that the czar, who is.rather proud of
his tenor voice, which is sweet and ad-
mirably trained, though not of great
volume, was in very gay spirits and in
excellent form at recent musical
party at the imperial villa at Livadia.
He sang couple of arrls particularly
well, and was SO pleased with himself
thai, turning from the piano to an ap-
preciHtive court audience, he laughing
iy exclaimed:
swell, my children, my enemies say
many harsh and unklnd things of me,
and accuse me of being destitute of
many capacities. But defy them TO
say that cannot sing as well as the
te.-of .them."y
