his landlady that it would be desirable

The Census Man
and His Troubles

The rap cf Boston census taker at
the door of Blackstone street tenement
on the top floor, was answered by lit
tie girl, with tear-stained face, who
said: Are you the undertaken"
no" he said, Il am the census man,
and | want to see your father"
"Papa's drunk" said the child, in a
matter,of-fact way, 'and he's out some
where
Where's your mother?" asked the CEN
sus man.
Mamma died last night; she's in
there, said the little girl, pointing to an
inner room.
The woman died the night before, and
her husband went out and got drunk
leaving the little girl alone with the body.
The census man notified the police, who
took the little girl to the Children's So
ciety and sent city undertaken to care
for the body.
Chicago census enumerators had many
troubles. Loaded down with portfolio
and various kinds of blank books and
record slips, they trudged into many
queer nook in search of the knowledge
the Government wants. In the fashiona-
bic residence districts the work was com
paratively easy, but in those districts
where two-story houses held from three
to four families and twelve to fifteen in
dividuals, system of espionage was in
augurated. The enumerator would go to
a house end make his argument for in
formation. In other rooms and on back
porches there would be buzzing of
voices pitched to a whisper. Then q
small, ragged boy would shin over the
back lot line fence and whisper some
thing into other back doors along the
row. In this way the coming of a
nameless scourge was passed along in
advance of the Government agent.

THE chief director of the census
rules that none of the enumerators,
after having once accepted his appoint,
ment, can resign without making him.
self liable to fine and Imprisonment.
The reason for this ruling is that the
enumerators are held responsible for
the performance OF their work within
Civ en- time. In 1890, five thousand
enumerators resigned, which caused
much annoyance aud Inconvenience to
the government. Provision has,
therefore, been made this time for
avoiding such An embarrassment by
making the obligation involved in the
tmens mutual to the extent of
