Growth Of New York.

New York claims that by 1910 it
will have passed London in population
and will be the largest city in the
world. 1t is believed that the state
census being taken at present will
show that the city has passed the
100000 mark. In 1901 London had a
population of 4,536,541, while in 1900
New York had 3,427,202 people, not
counting the population of Jersey City
and the other populous suburbs on the
New Jersey side. 1t would surprise
nobody, except possibly the Londoners,
II long before 1910 New York had be-
come the largest city in the world.

prisoner. and drew Barbe aside in or

there were no papers-nothing in the
way of further identifcation-found
upon the dead man.
Barbe acquiesced readily in Lafitte's
decision that Rose de Cazeneau
should never be told the truth.
Great was the disgust OF Shapiro
and the two men who returned with
Baptistine when they found that it
was Lafitte's wish to bury the Eng
lishman. as we'll as Zeney. Even Bap-
tistine's black brows went up in sur:
prised disapproval which he wisely
refrained from putting into words.
The dead were soon laid in the
hastily prepared graves; the earth
was shoveled over them, and some
pieces of fallen trees placed above, to
guard against any disturbance from
denizens Of the woods.
In the sunset-bathed clearing, Bap-
tistine stood near LATTE as the latter
gave Shapiro some parting orders.
He was to take the English sailor to
the neighborhood of La Tetes des
Faux, and let him find his way from
that point to his comrades.
It was comparatively early when La

ment of the day and the fatigue of
their long march through the woods,
betook themselves gratefully to such
accommodation as Baptistine's small
craft afforded for rest and sleep.
