A aew census has been taken of the
population Of China, which adds nearly
one hundred millions to the average
estimates Of Europeans. The esti-
mate of 400. 900, 90O0 has been considered
as the result of estimates arrived at by
a count of thickly settled provinces
applied 10 the entire territorial area of
the empire. The new census taken by
Chinese gives a total of 426,0OO,OOO. This
represents a gain of 4s,000,0A0 on the
estimate of Z. NJ. Koehler, German
geographer, who conceded population
of 10000, 900 in 1882. An increase of
46, 100000 in the population tf China in
20 years seems improbable, though the
percentage of increase would lie less
than that Of the United States in the
same time. Accepting the census fig
ures as correct, they afford another IL
lustration that poverty is no bar to
human productivity. The people Of
China ara poor and seem content to re-
