CENSUS OF OCCUPATIONS.
Questions Will Apply 10 Everybody in
the United States.

Washington, Feb. 23.-The "occu
patton" question in the United States
census population schedule to be car
ried by the enumerators during the
Thirteenth Decennial census, begin.
ming April Is next, applies to every
body living in the United States on the
date mentioned, which is the Census
Day." and all the population schedule
questions relate to it only.
In its printed instructions to enum-
orators the census bureau holds that
the occupation followed by a child or a
woman is just important, for census
purposes, as the occupation of man.
Therefore the enumerators are told
never to take it for granted without
inquiry that a woman or child old
enough to work has no gainful occupa-
tion.
1t is pointed out, however, that only
gainfuI occupation are to be reported.
By this is meant any employment,
work, profession or vocation by which
the person working regularly earns
A1OACJ VI ASo CHuANdlCASs Au0 40SS
that person has no gainful occupa-
tion is to be noted on the schedule.
If person is only temporarily unem-
ployed on account of lack of work or
sickness, or other temporary reason,
the occupation which that person usual
ly follows is to be reported.
If person has two occupations, the
enumerator must return only the more
important one-that is, the one from
which the person gets the more money.
If that cannot be learned, then he is
to return the one at which the person
spends the more time. As an illustra-
tion, the enumerators are told to re-
turn q man as a farmer" if he gets
most of his income from farming, al
though he may follow the occupation
Of clergyman or preacher; but they
must return him as a Clergyman" if
he gets more of his income from that

London, Feb. 24.-The fight from
Lhassa of the Dalai Lama will cause
no surprise to close observers of the
Chinese attitude toward the Tibetan
people when he was in Pekin.
1t became evident then that the
Chinese government had no intention
of permitting him to reume his sway
at Lhassa. so far as civil power was
concerned, and attempts were even
made to bar his passage on his return
home.
Following its policy of "China for
the Chinese" the government determ-
ined to make more effective its control
over the land of the Lamas. A cam
paign to this end has been pushed in
the border provinces for the last two
years, and now China has sent an army
of 25, 900 anti-Buddhist troops into the
capital of Tibet.
This army, which was dispatched
from Sze-C -Chuen, has been drilled by
Japanese officers and is completely
equipped with mountain and machine
guns of German and Japanese patterns
and with wireless apparatus.

NOT TO BE MENDED.


Charles Dickens once wrote to a
friend, Il have distinguished myself in

Much to his dismay, the solitary

Mr.. Giles Of Virginia and Judge
Duval of Maryland, members of Con-

When Jefferson became President,
Duval was Comptroller of the Treas

asked the Comptroller if he knew what

"She is Mrs. Duval, sir" was the un-
expected reply.

Fathers win Be Fathers.

A Kansas man complains that since
mis- daughter has taken music lessons
which he paid for, she insists upon
playing only classical stuff. When he
comes home tired and asks for little
tune, he gets nothing but musical gym
nastics. The whole feminine part of
the community he thinks, is in con.
spiracy to uplift him. and he doesn't
want to be uplifted.
1t is just like father to make COM
plant like that. Father never did take
kindly to culture. He sits disconsolate
in the draughty kitchen, while daugh-
ter's Browning Circle meets in the front
room. 1t is mothers idea entirely that
he put on an uncomfortable collar in
the evening and heard a missionary lee
ture on Borneo. Fathers taste for mu-
sic stops short at Suwanee River, and
he knows almost nothing about the
minor poets and the pre-Raphaelites.
His art ideas are derived from the
illustrated Sunday supplement; he will
not sit in a Louis XVI chair and he
cares not whit for the pottery of the
ancient Chaldeans. Shirt sleeves and
carpet slippers are his conception of
correct evening dress for gentlemen.
There is little hope that anything
permanent can ever be done for father.
When the millennium comes he will
still be found reading the newspapers,
smoking up the window curtains, i'm
peding progress-and paying the rent

STRIKE RIOTS CONTINUE.
Local Police Admit Defeat-State Po'
lice Called Out.


Philadelphia, Feb. 24.-Police off
cials of the city today virtually ac-
knowledged their inability tn cope
with the at ike situation when a re-
quest as made of John C. Groome, su-
perintendent of the state police. that
the 200 members of his command be
brought to this city for police duty.
This request was made, notwith-
standing that serious rioting was less
frequent today than on any other day
since the strike of the streetcar men
began last Saturday. The state police
are expected to reach here tom rrow
morning, and will doubtless be sent in
to the Kensington district, where the
State Fencibles had such an unpleasant
experience.
For the first time the Rapid Transit
company succeeded in running its cars
until O'Clock on the Frankford line,
which penetrates this unruly territory.
AT that hour all cars were returned to
the barns.
Four policemen guarded each car,
and detectives patrolIed the route all
day in automobiles. Whenever a
group of men formed detectives rushed
them and even followed the ringleaders
into houses until they had captured
them. In spite of the vigilance of the
police, many car windows were bro
ken, and the company was finally
obliged to use sheet iron windows in
place Of glass panes.

Calcutta, British India, Feb. a.
Chinese troops today entered Lhassa,
the capital of Tibet, and the residence
of the Dalai Lama, the supreme heac
of the Lamaist hierarchy, who, upor
the approach Of the soldiers, fled with
several of his ministers into India.
Serious trouble has been expected,
owing to the action of the small Chi
nese army, which, marching from Sze-
Chuen, China, subdued Eastern Tibet,
levying contributions on the Lama q
home and showing no respect for the
monasteries.
The Tibetans, resenting the desc
Grafton of their holy places, petitioned
the Chinese foreign board, praying
that the emperor of China interfere in
the interest Of the Buddhists. The Pc
tition was disregsrded, the Chinese
propose to make the administration Of
the country purely Chinese.
The Dalai Lama appealed to Lord
Mimic, the viceroy of India, but he re-
fused to interfere.

Philadelphia, Feb. 23.-Three boys
were shot and probably fatally injured
and several received less severe
wounds today in riots that followed the
attempted resumption Of service by the
Philadelphia Rapid Transit company.
The shooting occurred in attacks on
cars in the Northeastern section. Mar
ket street, the principal business
thoroughfare, was the scene Of the dis
turbances all day. Cars were stoned
and two policemen were roughly hand
led by mob of several thousand per-
sons. A dozen arrests were made and
the prisoners were placed in a trolley
car. This was stermed by the mob and
two prisoners escaped.
Preparations were made by author
tiles to call upon the entire force Of
the state militia if the police tomor-
row were unable to cope with the sit
uation. President Murphy, Of the
Central Labor union, still regards a
general strike of all unions in the city
as inevitable, although Organizer Pratt
is said to oppose this move.
Members of the State Fencibles, an
independent military organization. 200
strong, were placed on duty today,
armed with loaded rifles. They were
detailed in the Kensington mill district
Northeast, hotbed of sympathizers.
Fifteen policemen quartered in the
barn Of the company at Ridge avenue
and York street narrowly escaped
death tonight when the entire north
east corner of the building was blown
away with dynamite. The explosion
occurred just as C. o. Pratt.was about
to address a meeting of carmen at
