THE CENSUS RETURNS
GO1dsboro Is Given Only 5,S77
When She Should Have
5000.

The official census returns at
WASH gton give G>ldsbo1o only
5,87T people. The Inhabitants of a
city are as sensitive about their
population as the average editor
of a ne paper is about MS circus
lation, but there is manifest
something wrong in the returns of
the census taker. Goldsboro has
near s 600 people within the cor
porate limits. The only redress we
have wIsi be to have the police
teke the census, as several other
cities OF the State are doing.

The people of Raleigh are dis

if when completed, it shows a

ernment census, it will prove the
latter incorrect, of which fact,
however. there can be no reason
able doubt. At any rate, it will
be known how many people are
in Raleigh.

PRESIDENTS PROTECTION.
Several Secret Service Men De-
tailed to Guard Him from Harm.

The safeguarding of the life of
President Mckinley from anarchists
or the more feared class, cranks, is
divided equally between the United
States secret service and the Wash
ington police department.
To reach the president while in
Washington one must be known or
have trustworthy credentials, says
Washington dispatch, and even
then every visitor is under constant
surveillance, and a menacing move
would be instantly arrested by some
of the attaches at the White House
or the secret service men or local
detectives constantly on guard at
the executive mansion. George E.
Foster, one of the most trustworthy
men in the secret service, is charged
with guarding the life of President
Mckinley at all times when he is not
in the White House. Foster travels
on the same car, stands on the same
steps when the president appears,
and is always on guard at the door
of the car.
Charles Tharon, a Swede, who is
known as "Frenchy" to the White
House employees. acts as the presi
dents valet On all his trips, and is
also in the secret service. He is
virtually the presidents bodyguard.
His wife is Mrs. McKinley's maid
The two mount guard over the presi-
dent and Mrs. Mckinley every time
they take trip or stop at strange !

THE PRESIDENTS
WORKSHOP.
Whole East End Of the second
Floor of the White House
Used for Offices.


"The whole east end of the White
House on the second floor is given
ID to public purposes-the offices OF
the president, his secretaries and
the executive clerks. the cabinet
room and the telegram room, writes
Rene Bache. in the September
Ladies Home Journal "For con-
venience the room last named adj
joins President McKinley's own
Office, and the electric apparatus
which it contains places him in COM
munication by telegraph with all
parts of the world, and by telephone
with all points reached by the long
distance system. A special kind OF
telephone, which has no central,
enables him to converse privately
with the heads of the departments.
The cabinet room is about one-third
as big as it should be, and the
library next to it contains an in
ferior collection of books, consisting
mainly of out-of-date editions OF
historical and classical works. A
glass door across the main corridor,
which runs lengthwise through the
White House, shuts off the offices
described from the sleeping quarters
