The name of John Smith is probably

Alaska-Y -Yukon-P Pacific Exposition. Ihe
last city directory Of Seattle. Wash.

name. [ find the directory Of Norfolk,
Portsmouth, and Berkeley carries 81 OF
them. As directories generally take no
coguizance Of residents Of more or less
transient character nor OF those not
heads Of families, It would be fair est-
mate 10 classify about one-tenth OF per
cent of the male population of every city
in the country under the name Of 'John

ing Dopulations the rate would run higher.
Kew York should be able 10 send NJ
least 5000. Chicago should be good for

from faraway Alaska there would come
about half a dozen each from Fairbanks,
and half a dozen each from Juneau, Skag-

we may safely calculate that the same
proportion Of John Smiths holds good In
the country districts everywhere. II 1t

10000 men of the same name.
