THOSE WHO LEAVE HOME
Are Requested to Leave with a
Neighbor the Facts Census Emu
merators Will Require.

The count of the people in the United
States will begin in all parts of the
country June /, and end in the cities
two weeks later and in the rest of the
country before the close of the month.
The people are to be counted at their
places of residence, but as many per-
sons and families will be away from
their homes during June there is some
danger THAT such persons will not be
counted.
If they are not counted the locality
in which they live will be misrepre-
sented to that extent, and in some
cases this Misrepresentation may be
enough to affect the representation in
congress of the state from which they
come.
Local pride and state pride, there
fore, should influence all such absen-
tees to take reasonable precautions
against being omitted from enumera-
tion in their places of residence. Such
omissions are most likely to occur in
the large cities where families close
their homes and go elsewhere for the
summer. The occurrence of the Paris
exposition this year is likely to in
crease the number absent from the
country.
In all cases of contemplated absence
the head of the family is requested by
the census Office to communicate with
the supervisor of the district in which
he lives. He is also requested to leave
information regarding his answers to
the questions which are to be asked
with some responsible neighbor who
will agree to see that it reaches the
enumerator on his rounds. Such in
formation might better be left as
memorandum in writing, as in that
case 1t is less likely to be overlooked.
The questions to which answers are
desired apply primarily to the popula-
tion, but also to all farms and manu-
featuring establishments. They are
being published from time to time in
the press of the country.
BY taking this trouble the absent cit
izen will do justice to his locality and
his state, and materially aid the CEN
sus office n the performance of it's
duties.
This district comprises the counties
of LackawannG, Pike and Monroe, and
the supervisor is Attorney John r.
Edwards, of this city.

EVANS GETS A VERDICT.
Finding of the Jury in the North
Washington Avenue Grading
Case-other Civil Matters.

A verdict of 500 for the plaintiff was
returned Saturday afternoon in the
damage suit of L. r.. Evans against the
city of Scranton and others. 1t was
subject, however, to a reserved law
point on which Judge John p. Kelly
will give an adjudication later.
This point is embraced in the ques-
ton of whether or not the fact that
flying debris from a blast struck a
house is prima facie evidence of neg
ligent blasting. If the judge finds that
it is not the verdict will fall.
The "and others" of the defense were
the various land and Improvement
companies and individual property
holders along the line of the extension
of North Washington avenue, where
the improvements were made and C.
r. Kinsley, the contractor who did the
work. Neither side caused the con-
tract to be put in evidence, and the
only other means the plaintiff had of
connecting the property holders with
the contract was Mr.. Kinsleys memory
of those who had paid him. OF all the
parties included in the big list of de-
PENDANTS, Victor Koch and p. p. Smith,
the insurance man, were the only ones
he mentioned as having paid him.
Consequently these two, with MIR.
Kinsley, were the only defendants left
when the case went to the jury. Sew
eral of the land companies, so-called,
were by Mr.. Kinsley's admissions,
placed on the same footing with
Messrs. Koch and Smith, but when it
came to making them culpable de-
PENDANTS, a snag was encountered In
the shape of an inability on the part of
the plaintiff to show that any of them
were incorporated and liable to be
sued.
