There are some queer features
about the census use OF the word
family 1t means practically those
who eat at the same table. The
Memorial Hall Dining association ut
Cambridge is Il family, so is the Dan.
yers lunatic asylum. \ hotel ia Il
family. a stray who keeps bachelor
hall is a family. The necessity for
the use Of the term came with tho
question Of enumerating domestic
servants. II was found absolutely
impossible to attach them to their
" families, scattered us they are.
They had TO 20 with the family they
are living with. This led to n contin.
uation Of the principle with the result
mentioned. As it works out the cen.
sus family differs from the actual
family in size only by n small fraction
OF one person.

He Went Through the Window,

Mr.. Morris Worrell, a salesman
in Megary's big furniture house,
while visiting the country residence
of his father-in-law, John r. Mari,
few days ago, took trip in the
naptha launch on the Chesapeake
Bay, in order to shoot some game
which abounds in the vicinity. He
was armed with a double barrel
gun, and on sighting bird he took
aim. and, firing both barrels, the
recoil was so great that he was
knocked through the window of the
cabin. Fortunately he was not
much hurt, but Mr. MARI was put
to the trouble OF sending to our city
to secure pane of glass to take
the place Of the one broken. The
next time the amateur Nimrod at
tempts to shoot anything, he will
see that his gun will do execution
at the muzzle, inste ad of the brcech.

Criticised Delaware Law.

At the Trust Conference at Chi.
cago yesterday, Attorney General
Oren, of Michigan, when called on,
devoted the main part of his adj
dress to exemplitying Michigan $
methods for controlling corpora
tons.
He severely criticised Delaware
and New Jersey for their lax incor-
poration laws. Uniform laws, in
his opinion, should be enacted 10y
the States to control corporations.
Attorney General Smith of Texas
then took the floor and gave re-
cital of his experience in handling
trusts in the Lone Star State. He
had heard it said in certain quar-
ters that it was the purpose of the
originators OF this conference to
give to it a political complexion.
This he refuted in vigorous terms.
1t was the conception of the origi-
majors that the conference should be
entirely informal, simply for the
purpose of discussing remedy for
controlling "the trust evil. y He
urged the enactment of uniform laws
by the States to this end.
The conference at this point took
recess,

A nurse, Mrs. D olap, was severe
ly injured. The financial loss is
estmated>at 100000.
Pr The fire started in the fifth story,
and spread rapidly. The 6remen
were soou upon the scene and
with a numDer of citizens began
the work Of rescuing the patients.
In the south wing, til ough
which the flames wete making rap
id Roadway, the inmates were pam
ic-stricken, and The rescue had
difficulty III many instances in pre-
venting them from leaping to the
street below.
The fremen and citizens worked
with GOODNESS as well as energy,
and with the exception of the cas-
ualties already mentioned, it is be-
lieved that all the inmates were

BREAK IN
SUGAR PRICES.
The Trust Takes the Lead
in the Sugar Trade
. Fight.
A Philadelphia despatch says:

A Philadelphia despatch says:
Sugar trade circles were surprised yes
terday by reduction of u Of u cent por
pound In prices. The surprise was OF q
mild form, however, as after recent chan
gei In the situation the trade have become
prepared for almost any Development
The cut in prices was led out by the

duction brought the price of granulated,
after allowing for all rebates under tina
factor; plan, to 47sc. lessl per cent. for
cash, and Arbuckle's net price was 1916
Q. less per cent The jobbers In this
section revised their price schedule to a
bnsis Of s cents for graduated. at points
east Of Altoona.
There was nothing In the sugar situa"
ton to explain the further break In prices
rival refining interests. Many of the
contracts previously booked under guar.
autees have besn complet ed by deliveries,
but there is unquestionably a considerable
amount of sugar still due to buyers. both
from the Trust aud from independents,
which will now have to be delivered when
called for at the new low price basis
touched yesterday. This reduction Is
equivalent to 40 cents per barrel, and 1t
means that much additional loss to retin-
ers on all untitled contracts.
The margin between raw and refined
sugar prices is now less than u Of cont
per pound, but the fact must ba borne in
mind that the raw sugar now bong used
by reflners was not bought at tina present
price of 4ssa. for o. test centrifugal, but
much OF it cost 10. or more above that rate

less than that indicated by the present
difference between centrifugal. 81 test

stein was barely alive He was conscious
and the thought of having lost his wife
and children set him deranged. During
his tossing about among the floating
wreckage, his breast was split open and
his legs fearfully ."gashed. The rescuing
party told him there was pretty girls
dead body lying II short distance up the
beach. He requested to see 1t and he rec.
osnized the body of that of his wife. He
then and there tried to end his life. His
wife and dear ones and life's savings
were gone. Io had nothing to live for
then. But he was restrained and was
sent to Norfolk, and then to Baltimore

since then until last week, when he came
here on visit.
G. Morton Stewart g. CO., tho owners of
the Priscilla. have placed him under full
pay, but the captain cannot be reconciled
to his grief. Relatives are obliged to keep
a sharp watch over him. So long as
