cnumerator shall not exceed four thous-
and Inhabitants The compensation
allowed is 2 cents a name. The work
of the Twelfth census will not be as
elaborate as previous ones; the gather
ing OF special statistics will be done by
men sent out by the Department. The
enumeration will begin on June l, 1900,
and In all cities where the enumeration
in 1890 was 5000 or over, IL must be
completed within two weeks, and in all
other districts during the month OF
June. Enumerators must be residents
OF the district for which they are APP

Home newspapers are largely respons-
ible for the unsportsman like conduct Of
their baseball clubs and football teams.
They are led, through local pride and
prejudice, to take one-sided view Of
the matter, and thus become blind to
the cussedness OF their own players,
while they view the faults Of their ad-
versaries with a powerful magnifying
glass. But such is humanity, and so II
is likely to remain until all the springs

tesy.

SUGGESTED SEPARATION.
Placing of AImshOuse and WOrkhOus
Under Different MANAGEMENT.

Senator Mcmillan, chairman of the Sem
ate District committee, in a letter to the
District Commissioners acknowledging the
receipt of report on the Washington Asy
lum by the Rev. w. E. Parsons, member
OF the board of visitors, noted the sugges-
ton of a separation Of the almshouse from
the workhouse, and expressed the hope that
the proposed separation may be brought
about in the near future 1t is the desire Of
the Commissioners that this change may be
accomplished, to some extent, at least, in
the erection of an additional building. so
that when the worthy poor are sent to the
asylum there may not be even a suggestion
that they are being sent to a prison. This
however will probably only be accomplish
ed when, by additional appropriations and
in the course of time. each institution may
be placed under different arrangements
During the past ten years such separations
has been made as effective as possible.

tertainment from beginning to end. Its

singing and dancing girls ut the Tea
House Of Ten Thousand Joys" entertain
visitors over there Just rs their sisters
entertain visitors in other countries
where stronger beverages are supplied.
Unlike many of the eXtravnganzas or
coherent story running through the
play, which is shown In two acts, the
first being the "Tea House Of Ten Thou
sand Joys" the second "Chrysanthe-
mum Fete In the Palace Gardens" The
humor Of the dialogue and the diverting
situations keep the audience In contin-
uni laughter, and the bright and pleas
ing melodies evoke the heartiest ap-
plause. A most important feature OF
the entertainment is the delightful
scenery and the beautiful dresses. The
first scene, representing tea house, Is
extremely. but 1t Is outshone by the
lovely and rich chrysanthemum blooms
In the palace gardens, which harmonize
In the most charming manner with the
dresses OF 1.-THE Geisha." The chorus
effects are particularly good. and the
