ONLY ONE CENSUS FRAUD.
Director Msvrsam Discovers One Case
Of Padding ia Maryland and
ORDERS O ReoOwms

So far as has been discovered,
there 10 only one instance in which
fraud was committed in taking the
census. This occurred in St Marys
and Charles counties, Md. Here the
enumerator counted all the persons
who had died in the two counties dur
ing the last year. He did this after
consulting with some of the state
officials. The enumerator has come
to grief as a result of this. fraud.
He is now under arrest, charged with
making false reports OF the popula-
tion in the two counties named.
Director Merriam, who is deter
mined that the census for 1000 shall
be absolutely correct so far as it is
in his power to make it, has ordered
a recount in the two counties. Twen-
ty men from the census Office will be
sent into Maryland to make the re-
count.

WHY CHINESE PROHIBIT MILK.

0unarapsas,

The Indian Lancet Of January 81
gives the following condensation of
proclamation In the Loo Chow Herald;
Man should not rob animals of their
own proper food; and, of oil animals,
the cow il the most valuable to man.
The sellers of milk biacken their souls
for gain: but those who drink milk
do so in the foolish belief that 1t is
good for them. Before taking any
medicine, we should carefully investi-
gate its properties, and who does SO
in the case OF milk? Milk is the nat
ural food of babes and of young ami
mails; but when adults drink it do
they not thereby endanger the life
of the sucking calf. and arouse bitter
resentment in the souls of the calf
and its mother? Beasts have not the
power of speech, and SO cannot tell
men that by drinking cows milk they
win become like quadrupeds. If men
must have strengthening draught,
there are a thousand better things
than milk, so why select that2 Be-
sides, the term of life Is foreordained
and it cannot be prolonged by drinking
milk.
Everyone who reads this warning
is especially enjoined to abstain from
milk in the future. Children whose
parents will not allow them to drink
milk will not be stunted in growth,
but will have their lives prolonged and
be immune in epidemics. So it is pro-
claimed in the hall of good counsel"

TEST OF BIG GUNS.
Harbor Defenses of New York to Be

Spectacular Feature of Tests VIII BE
the Cooperation of Navy and At
tempt of big Guns to Force
the HarbOr.

Within the past few days the war
department has taken the first steps
toward carrying out what will be a
most Interesting test of war material,
to take place in New York harbor dur
ing the coming summer. The expert
mentS will constitute thorough and
practical test of the adopted system
of fire control as it is technically
called; in other words, the direction
of ;he fire of the guns of modern
fertilization from the large 12-inch
guns down to the 5-inch rapid-fire
guns.
One of the most interesting points
to be determined j. the relative mer-
its of the vertical and horizontal range
tnders. portion of the test will
consist of firing at targets, and this
will naturally be done with service
projectiles and powder. The object
of this part of the work will be to
determine how closely the range and
position finders have located the tar
gets.
Another part of the test, and with
S"t question tle most interesting
from spectacular point of view and
thus to the public, will be that POI
ton wherein the navy will be asked to
cooperate. This will consist in an
attempt on the part of one or more
war vessels to enter the upper har-
bor CT New York dnmoiested by the
ire from the formida Bile forts on each
SIDE of The Narrows. In this case the
ire FROM both contestants will be
with blank cartridges, though the
powerful S"archiiehts of the forts and
vessels will add realism TO the night

WANTED HER COFFIN TO FIT,
a Cincinnati Woman Got Ynta rha
Caskef So m to BE sure Il
Was Right,

When Mrs. Catherine Mcdonald
died the other day it was with the
knowledge that she had purchased
her coffin and shroud and completed
all arrangements for her funeral. .
Twelve years ago, when Mrs. Nc
Donald had reached her sixtieth
birthday. she called upon an under
taker and told him that she desired
to purchase her coffin, says the Gin
cinnati Enquirer.
She was very particular and looked
at scores of fine caskets before final
iy deciding upon one. Having select
ed one, she then personally superin-
tended its trimming, even to the
most minute detail. She frequently
had the undertaken measure her to
compare with the coffin and see that
no mistake was made. Not being
wholly satisfied with these measure
ments, she lay down In it after it was
finished to make sure of 1t. She paid
for the casket and also for decent
burial, stipulating that her rosary
was to be laid upon her breast.
During the past IL years Mrs. Me-
Donald had frequently visited the un-
dertaking establishment to view her
coffin. About two years ago she ar
ranged and paid for the burial robes
she desired, picking out an old-fash-
toned shroud. Some years ago her
only daughter. Katie. died. and was
buried in st. Joseph's cemetery. and
Mrs. Mcdonald then paid for n grave
alongside this daughter and near her
husband for herself. The old lady
passed away few days ago. and in
accordance with her arrangements

OPPOSES EARLY MARRIAGES.
Ohio Judge Says That They Are the
Cause OF a Majority of
Divorces.

"The number of divorce cases COM
ing before this court is appalling"
said Judge Frank +. DeIlenbaugh in the
divorce division of the common pleas
court at Cleveland, O., the other even
ing as he granted the seventh divorce
of the day. He continued:
''Two-thirds of the divorce cases
that come before me are due to early
marriages. / believe that the same
would hold true in all divorce courts.
Young people marry before they are
old enough to form sensible views on
matrimony or on the character of
those they marry. There have been
young wives here weeping for divorces
who must have been so young at the
time they were married that spanking
would have been more appropriate.
Young men are as great fools as young
women.
There is another class of foolish
marriages in which matrimony is CON
tracted before the parties have been
acquainted long enough to know each
other thoroughly. These hasty and uu-
fortunate marriages are usually con.
;racted by very young persons, go that
1t comes back to the same proposition
of too early marriage. When the in
judicious marriage has been made
there is nothing left but life of mis-,
cry for each OF the parties to it or
the divorce court. and so the divorce
record keeps growing. II, is shame
fui, and the lessons of the divorce
court ought TO teach young people who
are in a hurry TO get married to go

LEPR0SY IN PHILIPPINES.
T0faA humbeF of Cases In the Islands
Is Estimated at 2O,OOO--Enorf
at Segregation,

Marine Hospital Surgeon Perry,
quarantine officer for the Philippines,
has forwarded to Washington an Off
cial report on leprosy in the Philip
pines. He says:
"Leprosy is widely prevalent over
the entire archipelago, but the great
est number of eases exists in south
ern Luzon and the southern islands.
1t is quite prevalent in Cebu. the
number of lepers being estimated at
1000. The total number of cases In
the islands is estimated at 10000, but
the actual number Is not known, and
census is difficult on account OF the
majority of cases being in the rural
districts.
The cases in Manila and surround.
ing country are isolated in a substan-
tial hospital under the auspices of
the Manila hoard of health. There
is also leper hospital at Cebu.
An attempt at segregation and
isolation of the lepers in the islands
has been made by the army officials,
and several months ago orders were
issued from headquarters directing
that hospital in each district he set
aside for the isolation OF the lepers

GOLD MINES IN THE ANDES.
"OnaerhuA Deposits of Ore Found In
the Mountains of Bolivia
and Peru,

Sir Martin Conway, who has recent
ly returned to London from carrying
out extensive explorations in South
America, gives some most interesting
particulars of the wonderful gold de-
posits OF the Andes, reports an English
paper.
Sir Martin said that along the east
ern slope of the Andes, in Peru and Bo-
hvia, run many rivers rich in gold. In
the time of the Incas and during the
early days of the Spanish settlement
gold was washed from the river sands
first by the natives and afterward by
the spaniards. The work was, how
ever, exceedingly arduous owing to
the inaccessibility of the locality and
the consequent difficulties of trans
porting food and other necessaries to
the scene of operations.
Various attempts, continued Sir
Martin, had since been made to work
the deposits, but while all the COM
panies formed for the purpose found
gold, they nearly all failed to work
at profit. In recent years, however,
two or three companies, which had
taken up the problem skillfully, were
successful.
The explorer further stated that in
the Peruvian province of Sandia 200
gold discoveries of Importance have
been made. The neighboring province
OF Carabaya is equally rich. On the
other hand, the gold-bearing districts
are not poor mans country. They
are no place for a man with n simple
prospector's outfit. The difficulty of
transport, to say nothing of fever and
hostile Indians, is too great prob
lem to be solved by the individual

The polytechnic school is intended to
cate the young men of the country in
trades. Pittsburg alene has many es-
adjustments where n high grade of
skill is required. such as glass blow
Ing, irOnwOrking and the building Of
machinery. The course of instruction
will not only include training in the
various mechanical processes, but the
college will furnish the theories and
the principles on which the practical
work is based.
Mr.. Carnegie's benefactions extend
over a period of twenty years, and he
has given to various institutions and
cities more than $30000,00O. He has
contributed large sums to the mainte-
nance of libraries in many of the cities
of the country, and only recently he
gave to New York $J.5U0,000 for libra
~ purposes. He has assisted the uni
verSitieS of Scotland, and his contribu-
tons to the cause of education in this
country are many. 1t is his object to
induce others to give at the same time
that he does. and thus he has been the
means of placing many an institution
of learning upon Il substantial basis.
The CHIEF doctrine by which he is
guided in all his works of benevolence
is that it is best to teach people the
best way Of helping themselves.
For this reason Mr.. Carnegie always
has been interested in technical edu-
cation. He has followed the work Of
trade schools all over the world. He
recently contributed $300,O0 to Cooper
Union, which has for many years been
equipping young men and women for

water put ont part Of the lire. and The
goldfish eXtinguished the rest of the
flames.
The water remaining in the aquarium
was so low that the majority of the
fish were left uncovered. In their GeS-
peration the fish tapped their tails.
and the simultaneous effort of 300 fish
power sent the water out of the aquari-
UNI in showers Oh the burning furni-

Fish put out the fire after 5000 dam
age had been done. They were found
gasping in the tank after their efforts
had exhausted their water supply,
but were soon transferred to another
aquarium, none the worse for their eX
perence.
