FACTS ABOUT +:
/: T.: THE CENSUS.
s'.s@s'.s..s..s..*.s...s....ss...as'.*.:'.:

The Federal Census Bureau will soon
send a large force of employees into ev-
cry State in the Union to gather facts
and statistics concerning marriage and
divorce The plans for the investigations
which Congress ordered last winter upon
the suggestion of President Roosevelt
are finished, and the field force of the
bureau, now just completing the collec-
ton of material for the census of man
ufactures, will shortly be available for
the work.
Not since 1889 has any systematic
compilation of such facts been made,
and the great changes which have come
about since then have made it clear that
a new gathering of statistics is desirable
for purposes of general information.
while it is absolutely essential if any
action is to be taken toward securing
better legislation on these subjects.
The census bureau will collect and
analyze the provisions of the marriage
and divorce laws in each State and Ter
ritory. It will get as complete statistics
of marriages and divorces as possible
since 1889, and it will aim to discover in
each State the prevailing grounds on
which divorces are applied for and grant
ed. State officials will be asked to fur
nish such figures as they have gathered,
but as their work, even where they have
any results to show. is usually very in
complete, this must be supplemented by
resort to original records.
The chaos of our marriage and divorce
laws which has resulted from the free
activity of the different State Legisla-
lures, will undoubtedly be shown in vivid
fashion by the report. A strong impetus
to the movement for simplifcation and
reform, either by securing joint action
Semong the States or by a constitutional
sGSendment granting Congress the power
to leeNlate in this field, may be expected
to foley.

the complete independence of the island

Cuba was formally transferred to the
new Cuban government, was born at
Bani, Santo Domingo, probably in 1886,
and came of Spanish family. He be-
gan life as a cavalry officer in the Span
ish army in Santo Domingo and served
during the last occupation of Santo Do
mingo by Spain.
While in garrison at Santiago he be-
came so enra ged at General VillaY's con-
duct that he struck the general, called
him a coward and from that time be-
came a bitter enemy of Spain. He Joined
the patriots in the instruction of 1868
and fought ten years, being Cuban COM
mander in chief from 1878 to 1878.
General Maxine Gomez was noted
chiefly as soldier and commander. He
was a strict disciplinarian. His word
was law and he enforced it with an iron
hand He was a tireless worker and
found time for some literary labors. He
wrote various pamphlets on the Cuban
revolutions. General Gomez was about
5 feet ) inches in height, of spare build
and, although he carried himself erect,
he was not of an impressive appearance
though his deeply bronzed face, snow
white hair and mustache gave him a
thoroughly military look
