An immense audience greeted Madame Yale yesterday afternoon at the Jeffer- son theatre when she lectured on beauty culture to Birmingham women. There were few vacant seas in any portion of the house and all the boxes were occu- i pied by fashionable and representative women.
 Madame Yale made a decidedly pleas ing impression upon her audience. She is very beautiful woman, both in face and figure, and her gowns were superb. Her lecture was arranged systematically, in four acts. After a musical programme by the Jefferson orchestra the curtain arose and the speaker appeared. She was arrayed in one of the most beautiful toilets worn here this winter. Her di1 rectoire robe of blue satin, faultless in line and demonstrating to perfection her superb boise and grace of figure. A 1 large white lace hat of the directoire type and crowned with blue willow plumes surmounted her eaborately coiled hair. Her jewels were notable for their splendor and simple trimming of lace with sequins outlined the bodice of her decollette costume. In this act she gave a general discussion of beauty culture, ] and its value. mentioning a few salient points to be demonstrated later.
 In the second act she gave a demon stration of the physical exercises which she regards as so important in making the body strong and beautiful. The third act was given to an illustrated discus sion of the proper and the wrong way in which to WE lk. In each of these she donned costumes suitable for the pur- pose but exceedingly elaborate and beau tiful.

THE CENSUS ENumERA7oRs.
Estim ate Of the Number for Each State
Next Year,

ashington, Sept. 11.-About $4,000
enumerators will be needed for the
thirteenth decennial census of the
United States, and also of Hawaii and
Porto Rico, according to estimates pre-
pared for Census Director Durand bv
Geographer Charles S. Sloane of the
census bureau in whose division the
enumerators' districts are defined and
liked. This is an increase of about
ll,ooo over the number of schedule
carriers In the census of 1900.
] Director Durand points out that the
per diem enumerators in 1900, accord
ing to the provisions of section is of
the act approved March 8, 1899, were
required to work ten hours a day, but.
in the act providing for the thirteenth
and subsequent decenniar censuses. the
time is fixed a eight hours day. This
reduction in the daily hours will re-
quire an additional number of enum-
orators IN the portions Of the coun-
try IN which the per diem rates will
prevail.
The present census law requires that
the enumeration of the population shall
be taken as of the 18th day of April,
1910, and the enumerators must for
ward their returns to the supervisors
/ within thirty days from the commence
ment of the enumeration, except that
in any city having 5000 inhabitants or
more at the preceding census, the
enumeration shall be completed within
two weeks
In looking into the details of the esti-
mates, Oklahoma and Washington are
conspicuous, as they will call for about
800 per cent increase over the 1900
force Of enumerators.
Pennsylvania will continue in the
leadership, having slightly the largest
number of enumerators; the 1910 force
being estimated as $500 against APO
in 1900. New York is second with a
probable 5000 for 1910 as compared
with 4,541 in 1900. Next will come ILL
nois, then Ohio, Texas, Missouri,
Massachusetts,, Indiana, Michigan, Min
nesota and California, all needing 1000
or more enumerators each.
Noteworthy increases in population
will, in 1910, occasion about so per
cent increase over the 1900 force in
California, Florida, Georgia, Massachu-
sets, Montana, Nevada, New Jersey,
New Mexico North Dakota, Texas,
West Virginia, and Wyoming.
There will very likely be no material
increase in the number of enumerators
for Vermont and only small addi-
tional force for Arkansas, Iowa, Maine,
Oregon, Rhode Island, South Dakota,
and Tennessee.

Car SHORTAGE in SIGHT.

In special letter issued by Lamson
Bros. &, Co., to e. ]. Moore, cores
pondent "a East Main street, Marshall
town, Iowa, the following conditions
are noted:
There is every indication that dur
ing the winter months there will be a
ear shortage fully as acute as that of
, year ago. Cash grain of all kinds Is
now selling at good premiums over De-
cember delivery. Large quantities of
pats are being held by country elevator
people for the account of their farm
err customers. 1t is not unlikely those
who are storing grain will, in case of
car shortage, and good prices at terlni-
nal markets in consequence, want to
cell their grain to country elevator men
"a the basis Of Chicago prices. The
above plan is about the only one by
which they can be accommodated.
Grain bought in the country on the
basis OF terminal market prices dur
Ing . period of car shortage rarely, II
ever, makes money for the buyer, as
he can not get his grain in to take adj
vantage of the premium, and as soon
~ the car shortage is relieved prices
adjust themselves accordingly. We
strongly urge prompt shipment OF all
