physician during the past year in
the City and County hospital, the
largest institution of it's kind west
of Chicago. DR.. Roberts gradu-
ated from the Hamline Medical
college in the class of '99 and with
the experience he has had in the
hospital he comes well equipped
to treat those in need of medical
or surgical aid. Inasmuch as
only five students are taken into
this hospital each year, and those
five are selected from the best in a
competitive examination, it surely
shows exceptional qualifications
of a doctor who is able to get the
appointment. We have heard it
stated that a years practice in an
institution like the above men,
toned hospital is equal to ten
years country practice. DR..
Roberts is a bright genial young

SWEARING THEM IN.
Work of Preparing the Census Emu
merators for Their Work
Has Begun.

Charles S. Wilbur, superintendent of
the census, has begun to swear in the
census enumerators. A. number of
teachers, who are to- tell the men just
what to do and how to, do it best, will
also be on hand this week, and the
work of taking the census will begin on
June I, says New York dispatch.
The Instructors will visit the emu
merators in their home and explain to
them all the details of asking the many
questions that are to be answered by
the people they go to see in their hunt
for data as to the cities growth and
population. There are to be about
1908 ,enumerators, scattered through
the various districts of the city. In
addition to these there will be 100 in
terpreters and so special enumerators.
The duty of the latter will be to getin-
formation about persons who are not
found at their homes by the regular
enumerators. It is thought that the
entire work will be completed by June
IS, which is the date set for the final
reports of the enumerators.
