Indio's LofeSf CenSuE.

Effects of plague and famine are
plainly visible in the census returns Oh
India. The central provinces, which
increased ~ per cent in population
during the decade 1S811S91, decreased
$50 per cent during the decade 1891
1901 It appears also that the native
states have suffered more than British
territory. Though one of the former
Kashmmir, made the substantial In
crease of 14.24 per cent and others
show lesser gains, the group as a
whole has sustained loss OF 4.o4. IN
the British territory, on the other manu.
norticular losses do not prevent gem
aral gain of 4.44 per cent. For the
whole country the population is put at
2e4 266 900. as against 2S7,3lhOoo III
1901 This would indicate an increase
80 oA2 nor cent. but some OF the
o,,,,erations are now made for the
fret time and the actual increase Is
cold to he only LAO per cent as COM

knowledge of what is necessary to
business in world which is not uto-
plan.
His properties, which are represent
ed as nearing Sl0,0000OO, have been
obtained entirely by his relentless
energy and foresight of fields available
for labor. He started in life without
a high school education and travelled
rapidly through the various stages of
newsboy, clerk. worker at furnace
mouth and bookkeeper in a railroad
office. He soon saw the advantage Of
the street railway interests from a
moneymaking point of view, and. as
he married wealthy woman early
in life, he obtained small beginning
in indianapolis. from which time he
has worked onward to his present
prominent position.

Stole from Uncle Sam.

Charges lately having been made at
the Office of the commissary general
that large quantities of valuable
stores shipped from San Francisco for
Manila have been disappearing for
several months, Secretary Root cabled
orders to General Macarthur to make
thorough investigation for the pur-
pose of ascertaining If there was not
a conspiracy to defraud the govern
ment. The arrest of Captain Barrows.
quartermaster of the department OF
Southern Luzon. and the rest of his
accomplices was the direct result Of
these orders.
1t is not stated how extensive have
been the governments losses, but it
is believed that they will amount to
several hundred thousand dollars in
the aggregate. The name of the con-
tractor who has been placed under ar
rest is being withheld for reasons best
known to the secretary of war. He is
believed to be the dominating figure
of the conspiracy. and when the facts
are ali hHOWH llle StCltldIs anu du-
jutant general are convinced that it
will be disclosed that he is the man
who has made it easy for Barrows and
his commissary sergeants TO dispose
of government flour and other rations
and collect cash from the persons to
whom they were delivered.
The information that has reached
Washington thus far proves that the
commissary system in the East is con-
Quoted in a loose manner The fact
that the losses have been going on for
months is causing Secretary Root and
the president a great deal of annoy
ance and will doubtless urge them to
demand that drastic measures be tax
en-, not only to punish everybody con-
cerned, but to put an end to future
raids on army stores.
1t is feared that when the facts are
all known it will be found that the
raiding has not been confined to Ma
Mia, but extends throughout the entire
department of the Philippines and that
the losses will amount to upward Of
81 100000. What the war department
fears is that Barrows is simply a cog
in a vast machine that has been OPP

Tom l.. Johnson. who has been elect
ed mayor of Cleveland upon demo-
cratic ticket, one of the main planks of
which is the upholding of the Scent
car fare proposition, is one of the
strange anomalies of the country, and
withal a man who has many friends
because of his intense earnestness in
any work which he undertakes. To un-

nature of the new mayor OF Cleveland
it is necessary to compare the follow

output last year was nearly 40 per
cent in excess of that of the year be-
fore, and a still further increase will
be seen this year. Expectation of coal
from India has already begun. The
coal is found over wide areas and the
growing shortage in England may be
relieved by the expansion of the min

On the Gabun river Miss Mary
Kingsley's guide one day called to her
to creep quietly through the bushes
and then she saw family of five go
rillas-an old male, three females and
a young one. The guide sneezed, which
alarmed the gorillas, and they fled
with a bark and howl, the old male
swinging from bough to bough like an
acrobat on a trapeze.
On another day Miss Kingsley and
her two guides came suddenly upon q
solitary male gorilla, who, as usual,
had appropriated forest glade as q
park for his private enjoyment. Flu
rious at the intrusion, the brute, in
stead OF fleeing, came shambling to-
ward them, growing fercely. .Shoot
him." whispered Miss Kingsley. .T

comes quite close. have only one
gun. The other is out Of order. If I
miss, he will kill u.s."
The gorilla came nearer. Rearing
himself on his hind legs he beat his
breast and roared. just as Du Chaillu
described long ago. Then, running for
ward, he stopped and roared again and
again ran forward until quite close.
Then the guide fired and the gorilla
dropped dead.-C Chambers Journal.
