In Which Increase Of POpu-
latiOn is Discussed.
THE WESTERN DIVISION LEADS.
For First Time in Our History South
ern States Increased Faster Than
The Northern.

Washington, Aug. 2i--Thc census
bureau has published as q bulletin a
discussion Of the Increase of popula.
ton IN the United states as shown by
the census OF 1900.
The principal results Of study Of
these figures are summarized as fol-
lows The increase in the population of
continental United States, that is the
United states exclusive Of Alaska and
the recent insular aocessons. was 49,
Ol,6S6l, or POI per cent only one coun-
try, Argentina, has shown by the most
recent figures more rapid rate Of
growth The present rate Of growth In
continental United states Is estimated
as double the average rate Of Europe.
1t nearly doubles that Of Canada, and
exceeds by one-slxth that Of Mexico,
and by one-enth that Of Australia,
The rates Of increase on the two
sides Of the northern Atlantic differ
much less than n generation ago,
Among the FIVE main divisions II con-
tlnental United states the highest rate
OF increase Is found In the western d.
vision and the lowest In the north
central Among the If minor d.
visions the highest rate OF growth If
found In the Rocky mountain group OF
states, closely followed by the western
south central, the lowest In the north

the western north central.

ever, the northern states as a group
have grown in the last 10 years some
what more rapidly than the southern;
but west Of that Tyer the southern
states have increased almost two and
One-half times as rapidly as the north

growth Of the south as a whole exceed

A SILENT MoURNER.
Dog i'm scotland Town TuAat MalxeS a Practice of Attending
 Funerals.

There Is to be seen in Campbell town, Argyllshire, at almost every funeral which passes on it's way to the ceme- tery a silent mourner in the form of retriever dog, which takes up it's place alongside the front row of mourners immediately behind the hearse and accompanies the funeral party to the churchyard, only taking its. departure when the last rites have been performed. It seems to know by instinct when and where funeral is ta take place, and it has become such regular attender that its presence is looked for as matter of course at each of these solemn processdons in the burgh, says the Scottish American.
 It was formerly chased away from the open grave time and again, to no purpose; it found it's way within the walls notwithstanding the most vigil ant oversight, and has now overcome all opposition. Only once has it been known to turn back before reaching the cemetery, and that was when the mourners were all travelling in close carria ges. But the strangest incident in it's career occurred quite recently. A special steamer arrived In the har- bor with funeral party on board, and was met by the retriever, which took its accustomed place and accompanied it to the graveyard with the members of the public who joined it,

EXHAUSTED BRAIN CELLS.
Loss of Sleep and Need of Out-DOor Exercise Responsible for
 Many Suicides.

Nerve specialists say that a great many suicides are the direct results of exhausted brain cells. When you find yourself becoming morose and Respondent, when you are conscious that the zest of life is evaporating, that you are losing the edge of your former keen interest in things general ly, and that your life is becoming bore, you may be pretty sure that you need more sleep, that you need country or outdoor exercise. If you get these, you will find that all the old enthusiasm will return. A few days of exercise in the country rambling over the hills and meadows, will erase the dark pictures which haunt you, and will restore buoyancy to your animal spirits, says Success.
 No man Is in an absolutely normal condition until he enjoys bare living, and feels that existence itself is a precious boon. No one is normal who does not feel thankful, every day, that he is alive, and that he can think and act with vigor and effectiveness.
 Oh, to be strong; to feel the thrill of life in every nerve and fiber in middle life and old age as in youth; to enjoy existence as do the young lambs and calves which chase one another over the fields and meadows and pastures; to exult in mere living as boys do when they glide over the fields of ice in the crisp air of winter. ~gN#

Since my return have not seen General Bris- tow, so that I am not advised of the progress made.
 "The investigation will continue, and if any wrongdoing is disclosed the parties guilty of such wrongdoing will be summarily dealt with. If the sys- tenn or method of doing business in the department is faulty, the proper reme- dies will be applied without fear or favor. I inaugurated the investigation with the determination that it should be exhaustive. It is proper for me to add that I laid before the president the information which had in my possession and that he fully approved of the action proposed by me-"
 The whole administration of the postof1ice department is made subject to the investigation under Postmaster General Payne's directions, and every charge will be probed thoroughly and the inquiry made as thoroughly as the departments most expert inspectors can make 1t.
 At the same time MT. Payne's pur- pose is to give fair and just treatment to all concerned and not to act arbi trarily and with undue haste.
 Postmaster General Payne did not reach the department until 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon. A score of news paper men were awaiting him with queries concerning the postofice inves- tigation, but he parried all questions with remarks on his trip to the West Indies. He expressed particular graH- Acation at what he had observed of postal conditions in Cuba and said his observations in Cuba and Porto Rico would be helpful to him in administer ing the postal service.

HOW ANIMALS sLERP.

The writer, who received permission to visit the Central park zoo, late at night, in order to note the different po- sitions in which animals and birds rest. observed some curious things. To any one fond of natural history, such visit is most interesting. In the lion house the lioness was lying on her left side at full length, while the lion, couchant, rested his head on his cross eds forepaws, his hind legs being half drawn under him and the tail curled fu toward the body.
 The pumas, tigers and leopards were all resting on their sides, in nearly every case lying on the right side. The hyenas -pariahs and scavengers of the forest-rested with their hind legs drawn under them, the fore legs stretched out. with heads slightly bent to the right Nearby the two-horned rhinocerous was lying at full length on his left side, gently snoring. The hippo potami showed only their heads and backs above the water.
 No longer looking for peanuts, the elephants lay stretched out in the floor, their huge legs lying out at full length and the trunk curved under the body. .A tdcY WC1G 11A 1e1SL1AASS OA NAACAA A4$5lt side. Close by, in the deer house, the different deer had all crouched low for their rest. with forelegs bent under them and the hind ones drawn up, while the head was turned to the right and rested on the side of. the body.
 The oryx, with it's long horns, was resting with it's head away from the body, the horns making an arch over cir Ixy Booked like large ball of black wool.
 The camels lay on their stomachs with Their fore and hind legs bent under them while their heads and necks were stretched straight out.
 The monkeys were squatting about their cages their heads bowed down over their chests the arms resting on the thighs of the hind ones. A baby monkey was sleeping cuddled up in the arms of its mother its little eyes peering out inquisitively at the mid- night visitors In the smaller animal house given up almost entirely to cdvet-cats, possums and such like, every animal had curled itself up into the smallest possible space, burying the nose under the stomach, with all the paws drawn up close to the body. The bears were resting in various posi- tions some lying out at full length, others curled up. The two polar bears were huddled up in heap, with their noses buried deep in their white fur, and forepaws crossed over their eyes The llamas, zebus and American buff xaIo were resting as cows rest, with their fore legs drawn under them and their hind ones drawn in. The porcu. pineI was lying on it's stomach, its head bent to the left, with the quills stand ing out in every direction. The emu was resting with the first joints of its legs on the ground, the body short distance above and it's head buried in the plumes.
 Most of the birds were resting on their peTches, their legs bent under them and their heads tucked under 8 wing in every case the right one. The parrots had only drawn their necks in while the pelicans slept squatting on the ground, their heads drawn well back and their ponderous bills resting on their breasts.
