WASHINGTON. July 1.-THE Census
Office issued its first bulletin to-day, giving
the population of the District of Columbia
at Us, us This is an increase since the
last census Of 1920. or 2o.9S per cent.
In announcing the result of the canvass
of the city Of Washington, the Director Of
the Census desires to state that the policy
heretofore adopted of making a preliminary
count. based on a hurried computation Of
the names on the population schedules,
will be abandoned. 1t is the purpose of the
officials OF the Bureau to give out figures
Of cities or States predicted entirely upon
data ascertained through the medium of
the tabulatIng machines.
The population of the larger cities will
be announced in advance OF the figures for
the States and Territories.

expected that the official count of the pop
ulation OF the United States will be given

Some of the Names of Noted
Personages Who Are
Foremost In Our Ma
tional History.
Exalted Characters Whose
Deeds Posterity Should
Never Forget.
Paper Read Before the ChdutduQua Circle.

Paper Read Before the ChdutduQua Circle.
"They who deserve fame, are they
who have suffered for the cause of
mankind; who have been oppressed,
exiled, prosecuted, done to death in the
cause of truth and freedom. They who
are fictitiously great, or elected to be
great are of no account in the eternal
records. In the history of our country
few men have appeared worthy to be
inscribed on the tablets of imperisha-
BILE renown."
IT'S thus the eminent historian, John
Clark Ridpath, delivers himself in con-
nection with the proposed National
Hall of Fame" to be erected in the
city of New York, and towards the
founding of which Miss Helen Gould
contributes one hundred thousand dol
lars, that it may perpetuate the name
and fame of deserving individuals
whose word and deed has done so
much to implant America foremost in
the rank of nations.
HISTORICAL NAMES THAT ARE
ELIGIBLE.
In this connection it's interesting to
note the vast number whose names are
clearly eligible to be inscribed upon the
tablets of this grand monument, a
grateful people elect to bestow upon
the generations to come, and careful
review of the historical matter, accen-
tuating each name, is within itself
stirring lesson in patriotic progression,
and one not calculated to perish from
our memory.
To know that Roger Williams was
the first man in America to demon
strate that intellectual and spiritual
freedom does not always consist in
agreeing with the majority, is but CAL
culated to increase our respect for that
well defined law which declares for
religious liberty and freedom of speech
to all.
To remember that a Virginia far
mer, Benjamin Symms, gave two hum
dred acres of land and herd of cows
to establish the first public free school
in America, but magnifies our pride in
a magnificent educational system that
has developed from the substantial
action of single individual, whose
memory is to &c thus honored. Our
regard for the cardinal principles of
justice is but broadened by the know
ledge that William Penn was the only
one of the Colonial Fathers who treat
ed the Indians with justice.
Many tragedies have attended the
founding and development of our
country, yet none call for more solemn
recognition, or are so calculated to
appeal to the wellsprings of our better
nature, as the one enacted in the long
ago, when an old Continental soldier,
whose name was unknown, half fam
ished, and with an English bullet in
his left side, froze to death one night
in the snow at Valley Forge.
To remember, on this 18th day of
June, the 125th anniver- AIRY of the bat

GERMAN INFLUENCE IN BRAZIL,
Plan to Establish a PrOtectOrate Over
Southern PrOyinces

Advices from the frontier of Brazil and
Uruguay, received a Rio de Janeiro March
Is, show that large amount of arms and
ammunition, including Krupp guns and
Mauser rifles, together with large quantities
of other war material. have been imported
into the state of Rio Grande do Sui in the
extreme south of Brazil. Federalist news
papers here and there assert that a we'll
made plan is on foot to detach the southern
states of Brazil and to form a confederacy
with Uruguay under the protection of Ger
many. The three southern states suspected
of this project are Rio Grande do Sui Pa
rama and Santa Catharina.
The recent visits to that section of the
German minister to Brazil, Count Arco-Eal-
ley, and the German consuls, are said to be
connected with such an undertaking, which
according to the feIeralist press. is being
prompted under cover of pretended sepa-
ration of Rio Grande do Sui from the rest
of Brazil The GaZeta de Notcias and the
Cidade de Rio have both published a series
of articles dealing with supposed plans OF
Germany to take advantage of any future
difficulties of the United States in order TO
protect the southern part of Brazil.
The former Journal points out that the
territory now inhabited exclusively by Ger
mans in Brazil is far more extensive Ihan
all Germany, and the Cidade has recently
shown that the Germans have published
maps of southern Brazil entitled Antarctic
