The United States census office has
received through the state department
a consular report on the population of
the German empire and its changes
during the last century. The popu-
lation is now about 100000, larger
than that of any other country in
Europe except Russia, which has in
Europe alone over LOG, 200, 900 subjects.
or nearly twice as many as Germany.
In 1889 the whole German empire had
a population of about 10000, 900 an at
the close of the Napoleonic wars in
1915 Germany, though somewhat re-
duced in size, had a population of
something more than 30,00O,0O0. In
1S45, since which date the area has
remained almost constant, Germany
had 1900, 900; in 1865, 10000, 900; in
1885, 100000 and in 1900. about S.
500, 900, an increase during the century
of about 10000 900. Since 1871, when
the modern German empire was Or
ganized, the population of Germany
has increased about 35 per cent, a
growth extremely rapid for an old
country and for one sending out large
and steady streams of emigrants. The
Germans felt a natural pride in the
rapid growth of their population, says
the report, compared with that of their
rival across the Rhine. In 1S45 France
had about 36, 900, 900 Inhabitants and
Germany "a 900 ,000 Now France has
about $4,000. 900, or only two-thirds
the number in Germany. The provis-
ional results of the census of Vienna,
taken December 81, 1900, have just
been announced, and according to a
report from the consul general at VII
emma showed population of 1885,
were in Chicago when the recent CEN
sus of that city was taken. These fig
ures show Vienna to rank next after
London, Paris and Berlin among the
European capitals, while in this coun-
try only New York and Chicago are
larger. During the last ten years vi
emma has increased 21.9 per cent, or
slightly faster than the average of the
whole United States. Few large cities
in this country do not show a larger
rate. Of the two American cities larg-
er than Vienna, greater New York in
creased in ten years 37.S per cent and
Chicago 54.4 per cent. In common
with most large cities the population
emma is slowly decreasing and the most
rapid growth is in the outskirts of the
city.

CT Gov. Sidney Edgerton. Hfs first
official act was to call the legislature
together at Helena, February 81. 1866,
to provide for the expenses of the gov
eminent The attacks of the Indians
upon the residents of Fort Benton, on
the Upper Missouri, compelled him to
call for volunteers, and it was in pro-
curing the armament for these that the
circumstances occurred which led to
his death He had travelled 80 miles
in the saddle under a scorching July
sun, after experimenting the arrival
of arms and munitions for the militia.
He reached Fort Benton the evening
of July 1, 1867, wearied from his long
journey and, there being no accom-
modations at the post, he took quar-
tiers in a staterOom on board the old
battered Missouri steamer G.. A.
Thompson. That night he attempted
to leave the boat The night was dark
and he stumbled over a coil of rope
on the deck and fell into the dark,
rushing waters. He struck the guard
in his descent, which probably dis
abled him, and, although a gallant
swimmer, and despite the efforts of
willing hands, he was swept forever
from the sight of man. The body was
never recovered.

SKUNK FARMS DO NOT PAY.
Ohicial Report the Subject to the
Secretary of Agriculture.

Ohcial Report the Subject to the
Secretary of Agriculture.
A newspaper story of the profits
made by raising skunks for their skins
is giving officials of the agricultural
department no end of trouble. 1t first
bobbed up about a year ago. 1t set
forth that the agricultural depart
ment had been studying skunk cul-
ture, and had found that the beasts
were more profitable than a gold mine.
AS result of the story the department
has received many letters of inquiry.
T. S. Palmer, assistant chief of the
biological survey, wants to correct this
misapprehension. In a report to Sec
rotary Wilson he says: "Misled by the
statements about the rapid increase Of
skunks and the high prices paid for
their skins, many persons seriously
considered starting skunk farms. For
several years a list has been ktpt of
such farms located in various parts of
the country, but SO far as can be learn
ed, most of them have been abandoned.
Raising fur-bearing animals for profit
is not new idea The industry how
ever, has apparently never advanced
beyond the experimental stage, ex-
cept in the case of the farms for rails
ing the Arctic or blue fox, established
on certain islands of the coast of Alas
ka. Minks and skunks breed rapidly
in captivity but the low price of skins
make the profits rather small Last
season the highest market price for
prime black skunk skins from the
northern states averaged about $1-45
each, but white skins sold as low as
Is to 20 cents apiece. Skins that have
much white or which are obtained
from the southern states usually bring
less than 81 each, a price that leaves
little margin for profit after paying the
expense of raising the animal in cap
tivity." New York Sun.

The SANDER suit of Foster against
Foster was heard yesterday afternoon
before Justice William T. Conner. says
the New London Telegraph The suit
is for 500 damages. In the complaint
it is alleged that the defendant called
the plaintiff a lobster and a lobster
face" The plaintiff was under the
impression that lobster face was in
tended as slur on her character, "and
from the said words she suffered great
anguish of mind and humiliation" A
demurrer to the complaint was entered
by the defendant that even if the al
legation was true, there was no ground
or basis for the claim that the express
sion lobster face" carried with it any
derogation of character. The demurrer
was sustained by Justice Conner. and
the case will probably end here.

Mrs. E. ID. Rand and her daughter,
Carrie E. Rand, have nearly completed
their plans for leaving Grinnell, Iowa,
and moving to New York, where, it is
said, Miss Rand will be married to DR..
George D. Heron, the noted Social st.
DIR. Heron is now in New York and
the Rands will go there in a few days,
having sold their extensive property
holdings in Iowa. The judge who
granted the Heron divorce refused to
sign the decree until the check for
sec. 900 was in his hands. The Rands
were received coldly on their return
to that place.
Miss Rand is Dr. Herron's wealthy
patroness, who has been, prominently
mentioned in connection with the Her
ron divorce case. She has purchased
a house on Fifth avenue and Forty
NTH street in New York, where DR..
Heron is residing.
According to published plans, her
family will go to Europe soon, and
from this it is assumed that her mar
riage to DIR. Heron will take place
soon. In fact, it is so admitted by
close friends
The marriage will be the outcome of
the causes that have led up to the So
cial reformer's divorce from his wife

fears the interposition of the powers,

quasi-independent state. The fate of
Greece is a warning which is not yet

Late in March there was a comic
onera invasion of Macedonia by few
score men from over the Bulgarian
frontier but on the sixth of April the
president of the Macedonian commit

arrested in Sofia. This would indicate
that after considerable wavering the
authorities had finally decided to claar
themselves from all suspicion OF a
connection with the conspirators.
