to have been exaggerated. Roosevelt

stan into a fertilizer, variable for agricul-
tural purposes. Is such "A thing possible?
Indeed it Is. We converted all the stan
from the buildings at the Worlds fair, which
we bought, into this fertilizer and not only
sold it easily, but also had the satisfaction
of knowing that 1t was most valuable for
the purposes intended. We have n special
process for the conversion of stafl into fer
tilizing material. The solution necessary to
the production of fertilizer Is composed of
one-third staff. The other ingredients the
public might be interested in knowing, but
you'll excuse me for not telling what they
are.
'In order to produce fertilizer we will
have to operate a MILL, designed and fur
nished with machinery for it's manufacture.
We may be able to secure n suitable build
ing here. If not, we shall build one our
selves. This mill we shall probably have
in operation about April 1, and to turn all
the STAFF we have into fertilizers will take
about a years time, We expect to employ
from IS to 100 men in this mill.

parties, although some urchases have been

and punishable by a fine not exceeding $500.
If he willfully and knowingly swears falsely
he shall be deemed guilty of perjury and
be subjected upon conviction to imprison-
ment not exceeding three years and a fine
not exceeding $500. If he w~illfully and
knowingly makes a false certificate or fcti-
tious return he is guilty of a misdemeanor
and is liable to a fine not exceeding 5000
and Imprisonment not exceeding two years.
This latter provision is intended to prevent
the padding of the returns.
Getting at the Population.
1t is made the duty of each enumerator
to visit personally each dwelling house in
his subdivision and each family therein and
each individual living out of a family in
any place of abode and by inquiry made of
the head of the family, or of the member
thereof deemed most credible and worthy Of
trust, or of such individual living out of a
family, to obtain each and every item Of
information and all particulars required by
the law, as of date June l. In case no per-
son is found at the usual place of abode Of
such family or individual competent to an
swer inquiries the enumerator may OBJ
tain the formatio as nearly as practicable
from families or persons living nearest such
place Of abode.
Inquiries as to population shall cover the
name of each person, age, color, sex,
whether married or single, divorced or wild
owed, place of birth of the person and his
or her parents, whether alien or naturalized,
number of years in the United States, occu-
patton, months employed during the year.
literacy, school attendance and whether or
not he or she owns or rents his or her farm
or home.
Each and every person more than 20
years Of age, belonging to any family resid-
ing in any enumeration district or subdivi-
sion, and in case Of the absence of the heads
and other members of such family, then
any representative of such family is re-
quired, at the request of the enumerator, to
render a true account, to the best of his or
her knowledge, of every person belonging
to such family. Willful failure or refusal
to render such information constitutes a
misdemeanor and subjects the culprit to a
fine not exceeding 500.
Statistics as to mortality will probably
be collected by special agents from death
and cemetery records where such are avail
able, otherwise by enumerators.

information as to agriculture will be col
lected by enumeratOrs and the same require

Demolition of the
Exposition Buildings

The only building on the grand court of
the exposition remaining to give the visitor
to the exposition grounds a faint idea of the
architectural beauty which characterized the
Transmississippi and the Greater America
is the one that sheltered the government cX-
hibit. All the others have fallen before the
onward sweep of the brigade of carpenters
and house wreckers. Last Wednesday the
work # raaing this last structure was be-
gun. Under the direction of the wrecking
company $50 men have been engaged in tear
ing down all the remaining exposition build
ings.
The promenades which furnished n de-
lightful retreat for exposition visitors are
now sandy r%oadways, along which vans and
Wagons cart away lumber and other ma
terial from the buildings. The lagoon looks
like a dilapidated canal bed. In places the
water is thinly coated with ice, in others
it seems to wander aimiessly hither and
thither in search of some place whereby to
gain egress from its wooden banks. Along
its sides are signs of Danger! Keep off the
ice"
The wrecking company expects to com
plete its work April /. AS rapidly as the
lumber in the buildings is released it Is
carted away and separated, according To its
size and character. That which is too small
to be used for anything else is chopped into
~kindling wood. Much of the material is sold
as rapidly as it is ready for shipment. That
for which there is not now any demand will
be shipped to Chicago.
Considering the number of men employed
on this work and the precarious nature Of
their employment the number of accidents to
the laborers has been extremely small. Mr..
A. Harris, manager of the wrecking com
pauy, says: "Only two or three of our work
men have been injured during the time that
we have had our big gang employed on the
contract. They have all recovered and are
now at work"
Disposition of the Material.
When the company completes the work of
tearing down the buildings and has the lum-
Der material either sold or shipped to Chi
cago, attention will be devoted to the staff
which covered the buildings and gave them
the appearance Of marble. This material
has been carefully collected and preserved.
To the majority of people who have visited
the exposition this fact has seemed strange.
The average mind can comprehend that lum-
Der once used still has an intrinsic value,
but for what purpose the broken and
crumbling staff can be utilized has always
whose interrogations were answered by the
workmen with the words, THE boss tells
us to gather up this stuff, because it's going
to be used for something"
What are we going to do with the staff
We are going to use it. to be sure" says
the manager. "The value of the exposition
property to us was greatly increased by
reason of the staff. We shall convert this

On June l, next, will begin the taking
of the census, for which preparations are
already in progress. While the census will
be the twelfth since the organization of the
national government, it will be only the
sixth decennial census so far as Nebraska
is concerned, the first having taken place
in 1860, six years after the organization OF
the territory. For the coming census Ne
braska has been divided into six census
districts, corresponding to it's congressional
districts, each in charge of a census super
visor.
The list of supervisors has only been COM
pleted the past week and is as follows:
First district, Fred w. Miller of Falls
City.
Second district, D.. H. Wheeler of Omaha.
Third district, w. e. PEBBLES of Fender.
Fourth district, Thomas E. Hobart of
Adams.
Fifth district, Isaiah D. Evans of Kene-
saw.
Sixth district, John T. Mallalieu of Kear-
ney.
We so frequently hear stories supposed to
illustrate the inaccuracies of census taking
that it may be of interest to tell just what
the law requires and what methods will be
pursued.
The actual count of the people, which Is
the real basis for all census work, will be
done by a corps of enumerators working
under the various supervisors and reporting
to them. In the Omaha district 1876 enumer-
ators will probably be employed, of which
SO will work in Omaha alone; in the other
districts the number will correspond. The
subdivision of the census district into
enumeratOrs' districts will all be done in the
office of the director of the census in Wash
ington who will also appoint the enumerators
and special agents upon the recommended
ton of the supervisors.
Penalties for Crooked Work..
The law restricts the twelfth census to in
quiries relating to population, mortality, the
products of agriculture and of manufacture
ing and mechanical establishments. The
statistics as to population and agriculture
will be collected by enumerators. Each
enumerator must do his work himself and
alone, except that in certain districts the
director of the census may authorize the
supervisor to hire an Interpreter to aid ths
enumerator in enumerating persons who do
not speak English. This provision that the
census officials must not be assisted BY any
one who mas not been appointed and taken
the oath applies to supervisors, supervisors
clerks, Interpreters and special agents, as
well as > cnumerators.
Any enploya of tie census who, having
taken ana subscribed the oath, shall, with
out justiiiable cause, neglect or refuse tc
perform the duties enjoined on him., or whc
shall, without the authority of the director
of the census, communicate to any person
not authorized to receive the same any in,

acreage of different products, quantity and
value of products, number and value of dit
ferent varieties of live stock. The inquiries
relate to the quantity and value of prod
ucts during the year ending December 81,
1899.
Manufacturing and Mechanical.
The compilation of the figures relating to
manufacturing and mechanical enterprises
will doubtless be collected by special agents,
except, perhaps, those located in the small
towns and cities. Inquiries in that line will
relate to the name and location of the plant;
whether it is an individual or cooperative
establishment or otherwise; date of COM
mencement of operation; character of busl-
ness or kind of goods manufacturers; capital
invested; number of proprietors, firm mem
bers, co-partners or officers; amount of their
respective salaries; number Of employees and
amount spent in wages; quantity and cos,
of materials used; miscellaneous expenses;
quantity and value of products; time in OPP
Grafton during census year; character and
quantity of power used; character and num-
Der of machines employed. The answers
will relate to the fiscal year last closed.
The enumeration of the population must
be taken between June l and July 1, ex-
Cept in cities of over 5000 at the preceding
census, where it must begin June l and be
completed within two weeks.
Other Statistics to BE Gathered.
When the schedules mentioned above have
been completed and returned the director
of the census may, under the authority
given him by the act, collect statistics re-
lating to special classes, such as insane,
feeble minded, deaf, dumb and blind; to
crime, pauperism and benevolence, including
prisoners, paupers, Juvenile delinquents and
inmates of benevolent and reformatory in
Stitutions; to deaths and births in regis
tration areas; to social statistics of cities;
to public Indebtedness, valuation, taxation
and expenditures; to religious bodies; to
electric light and power, telephone and tel
egraph business; to transportation by water,
mines, mining and minerals, and the pro-
duction and value thereof, including gold,
in divisions of placer and vein, and silver
mines, and the number of men employed,
average daily wage, average working time
and aggregate earnings in the various
branches and divisions Of the mining indus
try. This work will generally be performed
by special agents and there are no linn
~itations as to time upon the preparation
of any of the schedules except that of pop

WHEELER MUST RETIRE.

General Joseph Wheeler, in command
of the Department of the Lakes, with
headquarters in Chicago, will be retired
Monday, September 10, on account OF
the age limit. On that day Wheeler will
be 81 years old. and has no option about
retiring, as the law which regulates this
matter provides that an army officer Is
permitted to retire at 81, but retlres in
voluntarily at "a. Wheeler is perhaps
the first American army officer who r.
ceived commission after reaching the
voluntary retiring age. General E. S.
Otis. formerly military governor of the
Philippines, will succeed Wheeler in
command of the Department of the
Lakes. Otis is now engaged upon the
work of finishing his report upon condi-
tions in the Philippines up to the time of
his departure, and as this work IS about
completed 1t will not interfere with his
assignment to Chicago, which was de,
cided upon some time ago. Wheeler's
retirement will leave vacancy in the
grade of brigadier general in the regular
