The Census and Persons Away From
Home During June.

The count Of the people in the United
States will begin in all parts Of the coun-
try June |, and end in the cities two
weeks later and in the rest Of the country
before the close of the month. The peo-
pie are to be counted at their places of
residence, but as many persons and FAM
lilies will be away from their homes dur
ing 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 misrepresented to that extent,
and in some cases this misrepresentation
may he enough to affect the representa-
ton in Congress of the State from which
they come Local pride and state pride,
therefore, should influence all such ab-
sentees to take reasonable precautions
against being omitted from enumeration
in their places of residence. Such oniS-
sions are most likely to occur in the large
citles where families close their homes and
90 elsewhere for the summer. The occur.
ence of the Paris exposition this year is
likely to increase 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 bis answers to the questions
which are to be asked with some RESPONSE
BILE neighhor who will agree to see that it
reaches the enumerator ON his rounds.
Such information might better be left as a
memorandum in writing, as in that case it
is less likely to be overlooked. The ques-
tons to which answers are desired apply
primarily to the population, but also to all
farms and manufacturing establishments.
They are being published from time to
time in the press of the country.
BY taking this trouble the absent citi-
zen will do justice to his locality and his
state, and materially aid the Census Office
in the performance of its duties.

Watching Digestion with x-Rays.

Popular Science Monthly.l
The use of the fuorescent screen has
been greatly extended. DIR. Francis II.
Williams, of Boston, has used it az q valu-
able instrument in medical diagnosis, es-
pecially in studying lung diseases. 1t has
been used at the Harvard Medical School
to follow the processes of digestion. To
accomplish this, in one instance goose
was fed with food mixed with subnitrate Of
bismuth, salt which absorbs X ray.
The passage of the dark mass down the
long neck of the bird could be traced on
the fluorescent screen, and the peculIari-
ties of its motion in the gullet could be
studied. A cat was also fed with the
same substance, and the movements of
its stomach noted. These movements were
analogous to those of the heart--in other
words, were rythmicsl when the processes
of digestion were going on normally aud
uninterruptedly. When, however, the
cat was irritated, it may be by the sight
of a dog, these pulsations instantly ceased.
As soon as the source of vexation was re-
moved and the purring of the animal
showed contented frame Of mind, the
stomach resumed its rhythmical move
ments. The dependence of the digestive
apparatus on the state of the nervous sys-
tenn was thus clearly shown. The female
cat was more trac:able under these expert
ments than the male.

II may be that not ten per cent. of the
white men are actually glad that secession
failed, but We are satisfied that there are
not ten per cent. who do not believe that
it was best for our section that it did not
succeed. If they so believe, is that not
equivalent to an admission that they are
more than reconciled to the failure of the
Confederacy and glad that the Union was
preserved.
There is no doubt but that there is a
large class of irreconcilables who are
still dissatisfied with the overthrow OF
slavery, and that many men belonging to
that class, among them Tillman, have too
much to do with shaping the political
policy of the South and of representing to
the outside world the true sentiment OF
our section. Strange to say, these men,
who may be classed as professional Con-
federates, are loud in their professions Of
loyalty to the Federal Government, and
are indignant when the loyalty of the
South to the flag is called in question.
What would people think of person who
professed to be a truly converted Chris
tian but continued to assert that he was
not sorry for his past sins Would not
such professor of the Christian faith be
regarded as a fool or hypocrite ? II
ninety per cent. of the white men OF the
South are sorry that secession did not
succeed, that means that they would still
make 1t an accomplished fact if they
could. With such sentiment existing
among the people our professions of 10y
atty are not sincere. This sentiment does
exist with class, but the great mass OF
the people will not endorse the statement
of MIR. TillnIan.

CORPORAL HENRY.
Is There Not Something Coed to Be Said
of Our Soldiers In the
Philippines
From the Manila Times. !

From the Manila Times.
A very commendable and charitable
work is voluntarily carried on by Cor
poral Henry Of Company B. who is in
the secret service department of marines.
During his researches for thieves and sus-
picious characters he discovered many
poor natives suffering with aches and
pains, and fever and boils, and he report
ed the state of affairs to the Government
native doctor, Ctrisologo, but he excused
himself, saying he had no time to attend
to them. Not wishing to see the suffering
90 unrelieved, Corporal Henry obtained
some salve, linament, pills AMI powders
and bandages, and now makes daily Wis.,
lis during his spare time, and the patfeRts
are very grateful t. him for his services.
A visit with Henry reveals many unpleas-
ant sights, and one can hardly realize
what suffering is going on about us.

SLOW ATLANTIC LINERS.
More Comfortable and Cost Less, ard

The evolution of the steamship is as
interesting as a novel. Take the cattle
ship 1t begun as a huge freight boat,
and it was found that anidships there
was room for few passengers. The few
passengers liked it wonderfully because Of
the smooth sailing and the moderate
cost. Then gradually more staterooms
were built, and in addition to cattle the
ships were soon carrying large cargoes OF
human beings. The other type was the
ocean greyhound, burning fortunes in
coal on each voyage-using men and ma
chinery in a strenuous effort to make re-
cords, in the meantime churning the
stomachs of the passengers into six days
of unhappiness. These did not pay
dividends, but they are fine advertise
ments. Now, finally, between the ex'
tremes has come the compromise. On
each side of the ocean splendid ships are
being built which exceed the greyhound
in the luxuries and beauties, and which
slightly excel the cattle-ships in speed.
In other words, the steamship companies
have come to appreciate that the average
traveller wants comfort. So it happens
that at least dozen million dollars are
now being spent in this new type of
boat.
The other day at Cramps yard on the
Delaware, the keel of the largest ship
ever built in the western hemisphere
Was laid-a leviathan which WILDE nearly
600 feet long with tonnage of 1850.
She is built by the came company that
owns the st. Paul, st. Louis, Paris and
New York, but unlike them, she will
have great, broad bilge keels that will
keep her almost as steady as railroad
train. 1t will take day or 80 longer for
the passage on a boat of this kind, but
the passengers will enjoy life in the mean
while. There will be two of the same
type, and other companies are building
somewhat similar ships.

LATEST DEWEY STORY.
A Queer Remark Attributed TO Him 10
Knoxville.

New York Journal
The following remarkable story was
printed in Knoxville, Tenn, Evening SEN
tinel yesterday. 1t hardly seems possible
that Admiral Dewey could have used the
language attributed to him. The Journal
gives the story for what it is worth.
Knoxville, Tenn, May 1.-THE most
sensational statement made regarding the
German warships incident which occurred
Just before the battle of Manila Bay in the
Spanish. American war was made by AID.
miral Dewey in this city yesterday to the
editor of the Evening Sentinel.
The admiral discussed freely with the
Sentinel representative the events which
led up to the battle of Manila. He said
that the incident of the German Admiral
Deidrichs had not been exaggerated az to
its importance.
When the German squadron arrived he
asked the admiral why he brought go many
vessels, and the latter replied that he did
so at the Emperor's orders.
The exssptrating tactics Of the Germans
caused Dewey many sleepless nights be-
fore the two American monitors reinforced
the American fleet.
CATER the monitors came" said Ad.
miral Dewey, "the foreign ships skunk
away one by one"
When the French admiral came on
board to pay his respects he complimented
Admiral Dewey on the fact that he had
made no mistakes.
"But made one" answered the ad.
miral 81 did not sink those ships over
there" pointing to the German vessels.
"In fifteen minutes the German adj
mlral knew of this remark, and it Was for
that purpose that made it," said AID.
miral Dewey.
Asked why he did not make report of
these matters to the War Department and
the President, Admiral Dewey said that
he was too busy with other important
things to make full and detailed report.

to be issued by the Government; but
until paper money is secured free silver
coinage at the ratio of l6 to l is de-
manded" And the other Populist con-
vention which met in Sioux Falls and
nominated Mr.. Bryan for President, de-.
manded in it's platform the gold standard
bill, demanded the Tree coinage of silver
at the ratio of 16 to /, and declared 1t
would never cease to agitate until the
Lincoln greenbacks" are restored. These
are sufficient proofs that the real object
of the currency crusade is not free silver
but free paper money.
1t is twenty-five years ago since the
battle for the issue of unlimited green
backs by the Government WAS fought
The Governorship election in Ohio in
1875 vas the turning point in that cam
paign. For time the verdict in favor
of hard money and against the theory
that something could be made out OF
nothing was accepted as final, but when
the fall in the price of silver gave another
opportunity to agitate for cheap money
the advocates of unlimited greenbacks
were again at the front. They chose sill
yer as a convenient subterfuge, but they
have not lost their old love for paper
money. The platforms adopted last
week, one of which it is expected will
serve as the model for the Democratic
platform to be framed at Kansas City,
gave convincing proof that the demand
for free silver is only cover and that
the real demand is for paper money.
This attempt to revive greenbackism will
not be lost on the intelligent voter when
he decides what ticket he will support i'll
November.

THE TARIFF QUESTION.
It Is a Question of the Present and the
Future as Well as of the Past.

Boston Journal lRep,)l
The tariff question lie emphatically not a
question Ct the past. 1t is a question Of
the past. 1t is question of the present
and the future. American protectionists
cannot afford to relax their energies. They
must continue to hammer their arguments
home to the American people. 1t does
look sometimes as if the battle were for
ever won, and as if the protective system
were as impregnably established AZ our
idea of popular government. 1t is seldom
that a voice is raised in Congress against
the tariff. Only here and there is free trade
aggressively proclaimed by an American
newspaper.
But the free trade propaganda is not
dead. 1t is simply sleeping. 1t is waiting
its opportunity. 1t will not die altogether,
for there are powerful selfish interests be-
hind it. In the first place, there are the
interests of certain class of wealthy men,
not engaged in active business, who are
living on the income of great fortunes &C.
cumulated, many of them, under the
shelter of protection years ago.
Another class, larger and more for
midable one, is made up of the men who
are identified with foreign manufacturing
or importing interests. If Mr.. Bryan is
defeated this year it will probably mean
the end of free silver propaganda. Then
tremendous effort will follow to revive the
free trade propaganda and to make the
Democratic party once more it's champion.
So let us not PERSUADE ourselves that we
have heard the last of the tariff in Ameri
can politics Next yearo or next it may
suddenly become the dominating issue. So
long as there are vast selfish interests be-
hind it the free trade cause will not be
abandoned. The protectionists just now
may seem to have won the fight complete
Iy, but if they are wise they will keep their
eyes open and their powder dry.

PERSONAL NOTES.

Letters from Kimberley say that during
the siege Cecil Rhodes refused to eat bet.
ter fare than the soldiers, and sent all the
delacacies from his table to the hospital.
Admiral Sampson is much annoyed by
requests for autographs. Though these
are not as numerous as they were Just
after the war, they still average some fifty
a week.
Marcus DAILY, the copper king, and
rival of Senator Clark, is frequently seen
going about his mines clad in the rough
garb of the workmen. He knows more
about the mines than any one of them and
could not be lost In any.
Excepting the avowed Socialist, Mile
rand, NJ. Delclasse, Frances Minister Of
Foreign Affairs, is the most democratic
member Of the present Cabinet. In APP
pearance he is short, coarse of feature and
generally badly dressed.
William A. Proctor has given to the
University of Cincinnati the dramatic
library and valuable Shakesperian collec.
ton of the late Enoch T. Carson. The
latter is one of the best private collections
Of Shakespeare in the world.
Guatelli Pacha, who recently died in
Constantinople, at the age of "a years, had
been, for more than half century, the di-
rector Of military music to the Sublime
Porte. He was a native of Parma, and
his predecessor was GIUSEPPE Donizetti,
brother of the famous composer.

Dinner of Mule and Axle Grease,
London lancet

The following is an incident Of the siege
of Ladysmith narrated by Sir William Nc
Cormac "An officer related an incident
which will serve to illustrate the lengths to
which things had gone as regards food. A
shell fell into The mule lines one afternoon
killing one mule. In spite of other shells
following TIE first one in rapid succession,
so as to make occupation of the spot very
dangerous, the men in the vicinity made
rush at the mule like go many ravenous
creatures, cutting off the flesh with their
clasp knives in great chunks. They then
in safer quarters built free, toasted the
meat and swallowed it at once. To make
them more palatable the men fried their
biscuits in the axle grease provided for the
carts. The want of fatty foods and vege.
tables was greatly felt. In spite of all the
hardships, nobody ever thought of giving
in. The general inquired as to how many
horses in the camp could carry their riders
six miles, IN view of sorte being made,
and the answer came back that only
twelve horses in the whole camp could
do it."

Changing the Russian Calendar.
New York Herald

New lorK Herald.J
1t is no easy matter to change a calen'
dar. Russia is experiencing this fact The
committee of the st. Petersburg Astrono
mical Society is having no end of trouble
in its efforts to have dropped the excess of
eleven days in the Julian method of reck-
oning, so that Russia may come up with
the rest of the civilized world under the
Gregorian calendar. The people do not
want it. They feel as the people did in
England when the change was made there
hundred and fifty years ago. They say
that the government is trying to cheat
them out of eleven days of life; that to
call the first of tie month the twelfth is
robbing them of just that much time. Then
they object to the unsettling of their re.
ligious and secular festivals, and say that
the days will all be wrong under the pro-
posed change, and that they will lose their
effectiveness.
But the change is to be made, and the
the plan 10 use both dates until the people
become familiar with the new style. The
law will make compulsory the use of both
dates on all private and public documents.
