RUMOR OF BIG
EXPRESS MERGER
STATES SOUTHERN PACIFIC HAS
SOLD HOLDINGS.
Pacific Block of Stock Large Enough

wELI.sFaRGO AND AMERICAN.

New York Feb. Cit was said in
authorative circles that the Ameri-
can Express company had purchased
the Southern Pacific Railroad COM
pany's holdings OF stock in Wells.
Fargo & Co.. which is taken TO indi-
cate that merger of the two ex-
press companies is under way.
Although the Sou hern Pacific
holdings in the Wells, Fargo & Co,
about 5000 shares, do not repre-
sent stock control of that concern,
the remainder OF the shares, outside
those held by the Hartman estate,
are so widely distributed that the
block could easily swing the balance
of power. The price paid is said TO
have been In the seighborhood OF
5000 a share, a handsome profit for
the railroad on the original invest
ment. This, II Is said, prompted the
sale of the stock, which was acquired
by the railroad during the Hartman
regime. Mr.. Hartman also pur-
chased a large block on his own ac-
count. 1t was reported that this had
also been sold by the Hartman es-
tate. but confirmation is lacking.
The Southern Pacifc's decision 20
sell the stock is in line with the new
management OF the road to avoid
stock market manipulation and con-
fine itself strictly TO railroad man
agement. James c. Fargo, presi-
dent of the American Express COM
pany, and Judge Robert $. LOvett.

WHO'S Head Of The HOUSE?
UNCLE sam WISHES To KNOW
Wife Likely to Have the Better Of Husband Who May Be Away When
Census Enumeration CaSHe viii Ask You About Your Mother
in.LaW TOO-.Rua Citizens Asked to Chain the Dog
After Census Work Begins Next April

Washington, D. Care you the
head of the family, or is the head
out?"
This is one of the leading questions
that will be put to whoever may come
to the door when the census enumer-
ator calls next April.
1t is important that the Govern
ment keep track of every head of
family, and the answer, though it
may cause domestic wrangling after
ward, will be recorded from the one
of whom it is asked. That is where
the women of the family will get the
best of it, as it is likely the men will
be at work when the enumeration calls.
''HOw About Your Mother-in-Law?"
Are you married? Have you any
children? Is your mother-in-law liv-
ing with your"
These are few of the multiplicity
of questions which. beginning April
Is, 1910, will be asked every house
wife in the United States and it's
Territories by Uncle Sans army of
inquisitors known as census enumer-
ators.
From house to house all over the
country these inquisitors will go. If
you happen to be a housewife and
answer the summons of the doorbell,
and four of your five children answer
it too, do not scold the enumerator
when he asks you if you are mar
ried. Uncle Sam has not counted
noses all over the country for ten
long years, and it may be, as some
pessimists say, the race is lessening,
and, if so, the Government wants to
know in order to determine what
kind of premiums to offer for Roose-
veltian families.
Chain the Dog After April IA.
There is one request in particular
the Government makes of people liv-
ing in small cities, towns and rural
districts, and that is to have all dogs
chained after April IA, for at least
six months.
When the enumerator calls he will
begin by asking these questions:
What street, road or avenue is
this? What is the NUMBER"
He will then ask: What is your
name? Are you the head of fam
lily? What is the name of each per-
son living here on April Is. 1910?
The surname initial of every person
in the abode? How many children,
their names, ages, places of BIRTH"
If you are not the head of the
family you will be asked what rela-
ton you are to the head.
The enumerators will ask the sex,
color and race of every person; the
age of last birthday.
Then come questions to the women.

Her Qualification.

The Literary Young Man was very
much enamoured of the Frivolous
Girl. But he couldn't seem to get on.
He didn't know what to talk to her
about, not being in the least bit friv-
olous himself. But making a blind
stab at conversation he said: do
you like Byron?"
Byron who?" demanded the Friv-
olous Girl. DO you mean Byron
Douglass, the actor?"
The Literary Young Man groaned,
but returned valiantly to the attack.
What do you think of Bacon?" he
asked.

Says DR.. Albert Lambert, in Sue
cess: For the successful treatment Of
narcotic addictees the variations seen
in the different individuals must be
carefully considered, and each indi-
vidual treated according to his sep
arate needs. During years of service
in the alcoholic wards of Bellevue
Hospital have tried many drugs and
many methods of treatment to OBJ
literate the craving for morphine,
cocaine and alcohol, and many times
failed of success. The treatment here
referred to is the first l have found
which successfully obliterates the
cravings for narcotics. Methods
should be judged like men, more by
what they do than what they fail to
do. 1t is not the failures, but the
successes which count.
The citizen. (Frederick City, Md.) 1895-1923, 1910-01-21

Are you married or single or
divorced or widowed?" If you have
been divorced and remarked, you will
be asked the number of years of the
present married life.
How many children are you the
mother of? How many children were
born and how many are living?"
These questions will be asked in
patient and fretful and think the
enumeration is asking questions which
seem personal and impertinent. The
information is for the Government.
The enumerator also will ask you
your nationality. The Government is
particularly anxious that this ques-
ton be answered truthfully.
What State or Territory, if born
in the United States? What country,
if foreign born? The place of birth
of the person being Intercepted; the
place of birth of the father of this
i>c---snr and the place of birth of the
mother are among the questions.
To Identify Citizens and Aliens.
The question of citizenship will be
thoroughly gone into, thus:
Were you born in the United
States? Were you an immigrant?
What year did you come to the United
States? Have you been naturalized
or are you still an alien?"
The enumerator will have to ask
whether all persons enumerated
speak English, and if not what Ian
guages they speak
The trade or profession, the kind
of work done by each person, such
as spinner, salesman, laborer, ETC..
will be asked. The general nature of
industry, business or establishment
in which each person works, such as
cotton mill, dry goods store, farm.
etc. Whether an employer or en-
ploye or working on own account,
will be another question. If an en-
ploye you will be asked whether you
were out of work on April Is, 1910,
and the number of weeks you were
out of work in 1909.
Questions will be asked with a view
of classifying the illiterate, those hav-
ing just a common education and
those having higher education.
Other questions will show whether
Americans are as eXtravagant as they
have been alleged to be. 1t will be
asked whether the home you live in is
owned by you or rented. If owned by
you, if it is free of mortgage
The last question is if there are any
persons in the house suffering from
blindness, whether in both eyes; and
If deaf and dumb.
Every citizen is asked to cooper
ate with the enumerators in order
that no mistakes will occur.
