the main building was erected. A nurses

RULES GROW sTRICTER.

| The process of gradually making
more and more strict the rules gov
erning admittance to the hospital can
be seen by a study of the minutes of
the trustees meetings. In 1872 it was
voted that mo person shall be receiy-
ed into the hospital because he is a
pauper or incurably sick and pau
per. In 1896 the matter of erecting
cottage for consumptive and other
contagious cases was brought up but
reported on adversely In 1897 the
trustees voted not to admit so-ca1led
SoId cure cases. And in this wear
also contagious diseases cottage was
again proposed and voted down. IT
was brought up once more the follow
ing year. Early in 1905 the resident
physician was given power to deter
mine whether an applicant shall be ad
ihltted to the hospital or not. Later
IN the same year, there was apparent
" reaction against the extreme
slflcthess that had grown up. for Dr
wood advises less strictness in regard
to admissions of incurable cases !" Fin-
ally in 1906 the trustees resolved that
the hospital cannot entertain anv
proposal for the admission of cases Of
a suspicious nature"
On the administrative side ]. F. Eek
arot has been superintendent since
1879. F. A. Schaefer was secretary of
the board of trustees for about thirty
years until 1897. George W. Smith has
been secretary since.
In the forty-eight years of its exfs-
tence the hospital has received much
more than half of it's support from the
public treasury.

MEDICAL HISTORY.

On the medical and administrative
side of its history, from its inception
to 1902, there was no resident physi-
clan. Instead, a physician in general
practise was employed at a salary,
which in the first two years was S2516
At a later period there was an assist
ant physician, also at a salary, and
later still there was a hospital physi-
clan and hospital surgeon, and some
times assistants. These were all paid
salaries. In 1902 a resident physician
was employed, but it was not until
1904 that salaries for what are now
called staff physicians and surgeons
were abolished and the position made
honorary, with an honorarium of 500
a year. DR.. w. Hillebrand was physf-
elan from 1859 to 1871, and DR.. r. Nc
Kibbin beginning as a substitute or as
sistant from 1869 to 1892, and DR.. Wood
from 1890 to 1905 There have been
many others who have been physician
or assistant physician for shorter pc
RODS. Since 1892, the positions of
physician and surgeon have been dis
tinct, and later an oculist was added

flu ClERlEv IIvIP OvES TOBACCO LIKE
ROASTING IMPROVES GREEN COFFEE
Flaue Curing Develops the Stimulating Aroma and Taste
Found i'm Sehuanns that Satisfies Tobacco Hlnnar

There are three ways used by far
mers for curing and preparing their
tobacco for the market; namely, sun
cured, air cured and hue cured. The
old and cheap way is called air cured;
the later discovery and improved way
is called fue cured. In fue-curing
the tobacco is taken from the field
and suspended over intensely hot
f1ues in houses especially built to re-
tain the heat, and there kept in the
proper temperature until this curing
process developes in the tobacco the
stimulating taste and fragrant aroma
found in Schnapps tobacco, just as
green coffee is made fragrant and
stimulating by the roasting process.
Only choice selections of this ripe,
juicy flue cured leaf, grown in the
famous Piedmont country, where the
best tobacco grows, are used in
Schnapps and other Reynolds brands
of high grade, fue cured tobaccos.
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1907-03-05

Hundreds of imitation brands are
on sale that look like Schnapps; the
outside of the imitation plugs of to-
bacco is flue cured, but the inside is
filled with cheap, fimsy, heavily
sweetened air cured tobacco; one
chew of Schnapps will satisfy tobacco
hunger longer than two chews of
such tobacco.
Expert tests prove that this fue
cured tobacco, grown in the famous
Piedmont region, requires and takes
less sweetening than any other kind,
and has wholesome, stimulating,
satisfying effect on chcwcrs. If the
kind of tobacco you are chewing don't
satisfy, more than the mere habit of
expectorating, stop fooling yourself
and chew Schnapps tobacco.
Schnapps is like the tobacco chew
ers, formerly bought costing from 75c.
to P1.oo per pound; Schnapps is sold
at soc. per pound in sc. cuts, strictly
10 and IS cent plugs.

DETAIL TO EACH PRECINCT

Arrangements have been made by Maj.
Sylvester, chief of police, for the taking
of the census by the members of his
department. the work to be commenced
the 18th of this month. Maj. Sylvester
hardly expects the figures this year will
show any appreciable increase in the pop
ulation. as conditions are not altogether
the same as they were when the enumer-
ators did their work last year. He ex-
poets that the figures this year will not
vary much from those of last year. 1t
is thought by the police official that per-
haps many Of the men who were brought
here for work on the railroads and the
union station have departed, thereby de-
creasing the population in the sections
where most Of them lived. Some are
still here, however, and it is likely that
many OF them will become permanent
residents of the city.
Last years census taken by the police
showed a population of 326, 435. as against
323,123 the previous year. There were
231,417 white persons and 95,O1S colored
persons in the District of Columbia last
year. At that time the police found that
the children between the ages of seven
and fifteen years who were not attend
Ing school numbered 374 whites and 621
colored. If there is any material in
crease shown in the census this year,
the police believe, it will be shown in
some Of the growing villages in the
county. Building operations have been
carried. on to considerable extent in
the county and also in the northeast sec
ton during the past year.
Suburban Villages.
1t IS interesting to note the number
of suburban villages andst the population
of them. which, according to the last
census, were as follows:

upon the work in each precinct, the out
lying precincts requiring more men than
those in the more thickly populated parts
of the city Maj. Sylvester issued his in
structions to the captains today, telling
them that they are to divide their precincts
into enumeration districts lection maps of
the District are to be pasted in each book
for the purpose of facilitating the work. 1t
Is stated in the instructions that the
enumerators are to ascertain the whole
number Of persons living in the District and
the number of children between the ages of
seven and fifteen years who are not attend
ing school.
Among the many instructions given by the
superintendent Of police are the following:
Those persons who habitually sleep in the
District; those absent temporarily from the
District, and those who reside here but who
are temporarily absent from the District for
a portion of the year, are to be considered
permanent residents, and will be entered In
the proper column.
Those whose regular business Is elsewhere
and who are only sojourners In the District
should be enumerated, and attention invited
to the square in which they live and the
One Locality Only.
The officer should never lose sight of the
fact that he Is taking the census of only
one locality of the District. A party do
ing business in one officers district NAV
reside elsewhere in the District of Column
bia where another officer is taking the CEN
sus. He must, therefore, be careful not to
enumerate or enter in his columns any
business man sleeping In a locality where
another officer may be taking the census.

ness place, shop, warehouse. factory,
stable, cabin, hut, tent, canal boat barge,
and all other places. public or private, of
business or abode of families or indi-
viduals.
The information sought about persons
should be obtained from the persons
themselves, or in their absence from the
most reliable persons accessible In case
of families, from the head of the family or
the member thereof deemed the most re-
liable.
All Chinese, Indians, prisoners, deaf and
dumb, blind, insane, and inmates of insti-
tutions should be enumerated just as others
are, and a statement should be given at
the same time that they are such, under
remarks in the back of the books so that
the numbers of such persons. in whatever
institution they may be and in whatever
square it may be located. may be had when
the census is finally completed.
In interrogating parties to obtain the In
formation desired, courtesy and considera-
ton must be shown by the privates of the
force, and when a private is In doubt about
any matter he should never hesitate to ask
for instruction from his superior.
1t is expected that the work OF the emu
merators will be completed in about a week.
but that of compiling the returns will not
be finished until about the last of the
month.
