LoNGEvITY ',-)1 oF \ FILIPINos.

Manila newspapers which have just
 reached Washington give interesting features of the Philippine census, which
 has just been completed. It seems that
 the census records are now being exam
 ined at Manila prior to their shipment to Washington. They disclose some in
 teresting facts in regard to the longev-
 ity of the Filipino people and indicate
 that despite the many epidemics preva-
 lent some survive to green old age. It
 was first noticed that great number
 of Philippine people were over a hun 5dred years old. Finally the examina- stion of a schedule from Laguna pro-
 vince disclosed an old fellow who claimed ''six score and ten as the length of his existence. Considerable
 interest was aroused when an old Wn-
 man laid claim to one hundred and for
 ty years. The clerks were then instruc-
 ted to make note of all who had given
 their age at over one hundred years. There were a surprisingly large num- Der of these, but the record for age had
 by no means been established. Batan- gas province came to the front with an
 old lady who boasted of one hundred and fifty summers. .Laguna province a once returned to the charge with a lit-
 tie brown brother who lnodestly claimed
 he srst saw the light of day just one
 hundred and seventy rainy seasons
 back. .s k
 Director of the Philippine Census San-
 ger and his assistants think it hardly
 probable that these ages can be correct,
 and an effort will be made to prove
 them by an examination of the church
 records of the municipality in which the persons were born. As the Spanish
 church authorities were very particular to have both births and deaths careful ly recorded it is believed that an irlves- tigation will not show these old folks to
 be as aged as they have stated to the census enumerator.
 Assistant Director Alnsted has cited some facts regarding the taking of the census of the United States which tend to prove the majority of old people whe claim very excessive age to have forgot. ten how old they were. One old man claimed to be one hundred and twenty or one hundred and thirty years of age Upon investigation of the records of tht census ten years before it was found that he had aged fifteen years in ter years The several census returns fol still earlier years proved that the old
 gentleman had been adding fifteen anG twenty years to his age for every ter years actually lived.--Washington Star

THE CREW THAT NEVER SAILS.

The captains authority over an ocean liner. and equally, of course, his re-
 sponsibility for her, extends only over
 the time when she is crossing the sea.
 Practically the responsibility ceases
 when she approaches land on either
 side, for the pilot assumes charge of her
 navigation as soon as he come abroad.
 When the ship arrives at her pier, or as
 soon, to. be exact, as she Is within hail.
 ing distance, the captain, is no longer in
 control. She Is then under the authority of the marine superintendent, who is in
 command of the piers and tugs and
 harbor front equipment of the line, and
 who takes charge of the docking of all
 vessels.
 To bring 8 giant finer to rest at her pier is a delicate operation. The flow of the tide, the headway inparted by her engines before they stop, the depth of the water, must all be taken into consideration, for the quarters and nar- row, and If she were to ram the pier 1t would mean bad smashup. But with the skill of long experience the super 1 intendent by voice and hand, controls the great vessel perfectly, and with | tugs helping her and cables drawing her she glides into her resting place as quietly and easily as a tired child slips beneath the covers at night.
 Practically, from the movement when l the liner is made fast she is turned over | to the crew that never sails. Her off,
 eers remain on duty, and their work is ! as arduous and almost an incessant in port as at sea. But the law requires that the crew of each vessel shall be paid off and discharged at the end of 1 every voyage. In the case of the liner they are again signed immediately, but 1 during the period while the vessel lies in port they are not officially connected with her, and the work which naturally would fall to their lot is performed by the port crew.-Earl Mayo in Leslie's Weekly. s..r.,..

JACKSON, KY, June IAN un-'
usual number of correspondents ar
rived here today, including magazine

pers. They will now find a quiet town.
Provost Marshal Longnire has made
no arrests for two nights and two
days. Since he closed the blind tigers
there has been no shooting during the
night. The free use Of weapons in
the carousals around these places led
to reports at times that bands of feud-

The feature of the trial today was
the drift of evidence towards a con-
splracy duplicating county officers and
others, and tending to show that JEFF
and White had no such motive as con-
sp1racy, but were simply hired to kill
j. b. Marcum, who was the attorney
