Mr. Morrison says he made a careful eanvasS He called upon each householder ln SkagwaY, and besides taking the name of the head Of the family and of each working member of lt, he also aIWavs asked the person who an- swersd hls call as to the number of per sons who arc living at the place. He always questioned particularly as to when there were others living at the place ln ad- dlllon to the members of the household, By thlS means Mr. Morrison secured about I4oo names, exclusive of the soldiers. A. lowing for the names missed and those of the soldiers, not enumbsrated, it Is Slfs to say that the decrease h population has not been as large as many have thought lt was since last April. Al DiwsOn, Mf, Morrison allowed 2S per cent. tor names missed. The same ratio at SkagS aY would give ISoO inhabitants.
 Mr. Morrison says he makes few mls- takes, as the enumeration of cities and towns Is a part of hls business.

FARMERS PROVE EASY.
Weather Bureau Wins From Agriculture
Department.

The Department OF Agriculture base
ball team, feeling very much elated over
the defeat administered the Weather
Bureau last week, ambled down to the
diamond on the Flats yesterday with
the intention of repeating the feat, but
after eight innings OF play the farmers
felt like the proverbial three-tenths OF
dollar because the weather prophets
ran up total OF % runs to the farmers
3. and these 5hTee were gifts from the
Weather men, who were unfortunate
enough to make four errors in the first
two innings.
After this the Weather Bureau team
settled down and played an errorless
game. The principal features were the
lcng-distance hitting of the Weather
men and the phenomenal playing Of
Garret at short and Kelley at second.
The pitching OF Ray was superb. He
allowed the Agriculturists only five
hits, and four OF these were OF the
scratch order. The catching OF &.
Hughes was of the frst-class order. and
he also led the team. in batting Th.

HOLABIRD TAKEN ILL
ON EVE OF BIG GAME
Man Relied on by Westerners to Cap
ture Golf Championship Has
Typhoid Fever.

GLEN VIEW GOLF LINKS, Chicago.
ILL.,, July 14.-Jrst on the eve Of ne-
tonal championship as all the promi-
nent out-of-town contestants had ar
rived for the big event the announce
ment was made this afternoon that Will
liam Holabird, jr., the young Chicago
golfer, on whom the West mainly re-
lied to yrest the championship from Its
present holder, had been taken Ill with
typhoid and will be unable to compete.
Up to the last moment the doctor held
forth hope that Holabird would play
but his high temperature tonight pre-
cluded all possibility of his participa-
ting In the championship. Holabird is
easily the most brilliant player the West
has ever produced, and 1t seems like the
irony of fate now that the first opportu-
nifty of competing on his home course
for the championship presented itself
that he would be unable to take part,
particularly after his fine work in prac-
tice for the past week.
In todays practice rounds the best
work was done by Walter ]. Travis, the
national champion, and John Reid, jr.,
of ST. Andrews. each Of whom made an
so.
With only one or two exceptions all
of the Eastern entrants are registered
at the club. From indications at least
125 of the 159 entries will start in the
event 1t seems to be the consensus
of opinion that not more than three
scores will be returned under so, while
"a will be the qualifying limit.

1t should be Il good race, as Champion
VIII try to lower the worlds records he
established last year in his contest with
Freeman. while Mclean is confident that
he can make Champion let out few
extra links if he cannot wholly defeat
him.
1t will be the first time Mclean has
been here this year and as he outranks
Freeman at the tep-miie heat game.
there is every probability of the race
being full of enthus!asm and hard pedal
work.
In addition to the usual supplementary
motor race tonight there will be an
amateur meet COMPOSED OF four races
that viii draw forth a greater number
of prominent riders than any meet this
year. There will also be q half mile
handicap race, a mile open contest and
a motor paced race between Johnny Hi

Rhines and Clarence Miller.
On July % the Grand National Circuit
meet will be held at the Coliseum and

FOURNIER'S LATEST AUTOMOBILE
Will Try to Break His Own Mile Rec
ord of 81 As Seconds.

In letter from Paris Henri Fourn:er
tells OF an automobile OF special design
and construction which he is building
for an attack on his own mile record OF
81 4-5 seconds. He says that when he
comes to America In November he will
be prepared to travel a very fast mile
over the Coney Island Boulevard. pro-
vided he can secure the necessary per-
mission.
Fournier says that in the Paris Vienna
race he had travelled 800 kilomete-s
without being passed by a single chau-
feur. when punctured tire and break
in the machinery brought him to stop.
He was unable to remedy the trouble in
time to continue with any kind of a
chance OF winning.

CYCLIST CHAMPION.
French Pace Followers Rapid Rise the
Surprise of the Season.

The biggest surprise of the cycle rae
ing game this season has been the re-
markable work of Albert Champion, the
famous French cyclist. Up to the pres
ent season, says the Journal he had
not done anything to attract especial
attention His work was very erratic.
He was never. therefore, taken very
seriously by the public as follower OF
pace.
This year. however. great change
to say the least. has occurred in the
work by the representative OF France.
Not only has he won a great number of
races, but he has established new
worlds records for all distances from
one up to ten niles. Perhaps the best
Of these records is the one mile in the
phenoaa aenal time of / minute is 20 sec
onds, the five miles in minutes 43 sec
onds. and the ten miles in 13 minutes
50 2-5 seconds.
As all of these records were made In
competition the performances are all
the more worthy of notice.
