Bridgeport, Feb. 2.-Someone

book, as with desire to rebuke the
pastor of the First Methodist Episco-

is busy trying to establish the iden-

The pastor, Rev. w. E. Fetch, in
the course of his plea for money,
said, "If some of you would give
the church the money you spend for
chewing gum in six months the
church debt would be wiped out -
His remarks evidently prompted the
donation of the gum.

BIRDS
From Mt. Vernon And Gam-

At A Big Cock Fight Held In
Columbus
BIRDS

A number Of Mt. Vernon sports are
highly elated over the result of a
cock fight which was pulled off at
Columbus last Saturday night in
which Mt. Vernon and Gambler
birds cleaned up nearly all the mon
ey. 1t was decided to keep the fight
a great secret, but the news was too
good to keep and the story leaked
out today.
1t appears that the Mt. Vernon
and Gambler sports went to Colum-
bus Saturday with large number
of fine birds and pitted them against
Columbus, GAINESVILLE, Newark and
Circleville birds. There were nine
fights, all for 800 each and the Mt.
Vernon and Gambler birds won Z
out of the 9 battles. In addition
the local men cleaned up consider
able money on side bets.

BLINDED
By Fright When Desk Sud.
denly Closed

Minneapolis, Mimi, Feb. 2.-As a
result of a sudden fright from a
swiftly closing typewriter desk, Miss
Cristine Garfield, stenographer, 21
years old, has been totally blind
since last Friday, and the medical
experts of the Twin Cities are baffied
over her case.
Last Friday her typewriter desk
shut suddenly. Anticipating the
crash and noise, Miss Garfield placed
her hands over her eyes.
The opening of the eyelids caused
her intense pain, and until today she
was forced to keep them shut. The
surgeons say her blindness is only
temporary.

The Dog, But Did Not Find
The Man

Constable Milton Simpkins was
called 60 Gambler Tuesday afternoon
to serve warrant sworn out in
Squire Harter's court by c. w. Smith
for the arrest of E. Wolfe, charging
him with stealing a beagle hound.
The constable entered barn and
found the dog that had been stolen
and when he was making prepara-
tions 20 arrest e. Wolfe, he discov-
cred that it was the wrong man and
that 1t was another man who stole
the animal. Mr.. Simpkins took pos

most establishments will correspond
to the calendar year 1909. For es-
adjustments beginning operations

of account Is kept AS the statis-
tics will be presented by kinds and
by classes of industries, it is essen
tial that the precise character of
the work performed by each estab-
lishment shall be clearly determined.
A general schedule must be prepared
for each establishment reported, and.
in addition, such special supplement-
al schedules as may apply to the
industry, if any.
"The method of the canvass re-
quires that few days prior to the
day when a given firm is to be can
vassed the special agent shall mail
to the manufacturer a copy of the
general schedule, with the proper
supplemental schedules, together with
the request that they be filled out
in readiness for the special agent
on his arrival. In the event this
has not been done at the time the
agent calls, he will proceed to get
the facts Immediately.
"The information secured must
be accurate. In drafting the schedule
every effort was made to frame the
inquiries in such a form that the
answers to them can generally be
taken directly from the books OF
accounts and the records of the es-
tablishment oanvassed. In no case
are general statements or estimates
to be accepted where it is possible to
secure answers directly from THE
books of accounts and records.
GAS there is a general interest in
the subject of the cities, states, and
territories with reference to the
larger selected industries, it is ex-
ceedingly desirable that, from the
standpoint of civic pride alone, the
manufacturers throughout the Unit
ed States should furnish the data
without delay in order that the in
dustrial centers in which they OPP
crate may be completely and cor
rectly represented in the statistical
tables. Every manufacturer is
therefore urged to cooperate prompt
ly and fully with the Bureau of the
Census"

Who Are Collecting The
Figures For Year 1910
Eighteen Hundred Men Start
On Their Work
And Many More Are To Be
Appointed

Washington, D. c., Feb. 2.-The
United States census bureau has be-
gun to take the federal census of
manufacturers, mines, quarries, pc
troleum, and natural gas for the year
1909, which comprises two of the
principal inquiries embraced in the
others being population and agri-
culture.
The canvass is being made under
the supervision of Mr.. William M.
Steuart, chief statistician for manu-
facturers, and about 1900 special
agents will be employed eventually
in the work, and they are from day
to day being appointed by Direc-
tor Durand from the eligible regis
ters established as result of the
November 3 examination of candi-
dates for these positions.
Director Durand has taken extra
ordinary precautions to assure the
manufacturers that all answers will
be held absolutely confidential. This
statement is conspicuously displayed
on the front pages of the various
schedules, and it is also emphatical-
ly declared that no publication will
be made in the census reports dis
closing the name or operations of in
dividual establishments in any par
ticular. The act of congress pro-
vides that the bureau of the census
shall not permit any other than it's
sworn employees to examine the in
dividual reports. 1t provides also
that any employee who shall, with
out the authority of the director of
the census, publish or communicate
any information coming into his
possession shall be guilty of a mis-
demeanor, and upon conviction shall
be fined not to exceed $1,000 or be
imprisoned not to exceed two years,
or both, in the discretion of the
court.
"There Is but limited time in
which to complete this work." said
Director Durand today. at is essen
tial that all the field employees ex-
ert themselves to the utmost. Those
who do good work will be reassign-
ed to other districts and retained in
the service until the work Is finished
"If manufacturers or other fur
nishing data object to supposed
disclosure of the secrets of their
business, the special agents will as
sure them that the results of their
individual business will not be made
public. They are required also to
explain that che information will not
be used for the purpose Of taxation.
nor in any manner to identify the
operations Of the individual estab-
lishments, and will not be disclosed
to any other bureau of the federal
government. The intent of the law.
which will be strictly carried out, is
to prevent the disclosure of infor-
nation which might operate to the
detriment in any way of the person

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portion of
the ear. There is only one way to
cure deafness, and that is by con-
stitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition OF
the mucous lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube Is inflamed
you have a rumbling sound or i'm
perfect hearing, and when 1t is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result
and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out OF
ten are caused by Catarrh, which is
nothing but an inflamed condition OF
the mucous surfaces.

Why does Great Briian buy
its oatmeal Of us?

Certainly it seems like carrying
Goals to Newcastle to speak of export
ing oatmeal to Scotland and yet, every
year the Quaker Oats Company sends
hundreds of thousands Of cases of
Quaker Oats to Great Britain and
Europe.
The reason is simple; while the
English and Scotch have for centuries
eaten oatmeal in quantities and with a
regularity that has made them the
most rugged physically, and active
mentally of all people, the American
has been eating oatmeal and trying all
the time to improve the methods OF
manufacture SO that he might get that
desirable foreign trade.
How well he has succeeded would
be seen at glance at the export re-
ports on Quaker Oats. This brand is
without a rival; is packed in regular
l0c packages, and in large size family
packages at 25c. 81
