ON CUBAN CENSUS.
Temporary Appointments Of Clerks
Made in Census Office.

The census bureau has made 40 ap-
pointments. nearly all the appointees be-
ing Westinghouse. to complete the work
of tabulating the results of the Cuban
census One of the first movements
started in Cuba after the Spanish war
was the taking of a census under the
provisional government When the field
work was completed it was discovered
that the Cubans had no proper facilities
for handling the tremendous mass of facts
and figures, and the President directed
that the work be turned over to the cen
sus bureau in Washington. The new ap-
pointments were therefore necessary. and
as the work is temporary and not for
pointees were not from the civil service
The work will be completed probably by
July l.

Plants of Prey.

from Jechnral World Magazine.
Most land animals feed upon plants aud
most plants feed upon the soil and the
air. But there are a few plants which
reverse the order of nature and feed upon
animals, at least to a certain extent
They may fairly be called plants of prey,
pounce like tigers. they catch live game
and kill, devOur and digest it.
These abnormal plants are commonly
called inSectivorous, but the name car
nivOrcus is more fitting for some species
feed on fishes and mammals in addition
to insects and assimilate pieces of meat
offered to them.
At least five hundred species of plants
catch insects, but many of them appear to
make no use of their prey. The plants
described below are really carnivorous
and require certain quantity of animal
food for perfect health and development,
though they can exist without it.
Most carnivorous plants are natives of
hogs and swamps. The sundew family is
the largest and most widely distributed.
The true sundew tdrosera) includes ninety
species of low growing, delicately formed
plants with leaves arranged in rosette
at the root. Some are SO small that only
keen eye can discover them, while
others are several feet in height. Forty
seven species are natives of Australia and
only nine are found north of the equator.
Several species grow wild in the United
States They are best cultivated in shall
low pots filed half with potsherds and
half with bog earth and chopped moss
The smallest proportion of lime in the
soil, even the lime of "hard'' water used
for sprinkling, is injurious and may be
fatal to the Sundew or any other car
nivOrous plant.

SEIF-MADE.
Humble Beginnings of Great Rail
way Men.

From McClure's Magazine.
The time when the politicians of Penn
sylvania controlled appointments to the
Pennsylvania railroad, and municipal
political machines unloaded their bench
men on street railway systems has gone
by. Promotion according to merit is also
displacing nepotism and other abuses.
Indeed. roll call of our leading railroad
presidents would indicate that the spirit
of democracy has always prevailed.
James J. Hill started his career as a
stevedore in the docks at st. Paul, while
Hartman was the son of a poor country
clergyman. James McCrea, president of
the pennsylvania. began working upon
railroads as a rodman. Oscar o. Muir
ray, president of the Baltimore and Ohio
was originally ticket agent. Charles
e. Melien. president of the New York,
New Haven and Hartford, began as a
clerk In the cashiers Office. George F.
Baer OF the Reading was originally q
American by birth-one of the creators
of the Canadian Pacific, and Marvin
Hughitt. president of the Northwestern,
both entered the railroad business as tel
egraph operators. George b. Harris of
the Burlington. was an office boy. Fred
eriCk d. Underwood of the Erie was a
brakeman. and William II. Newman. pres
ident of the New York Central and all
the Vanderbilt lines, was originally a sta
ton agent.
