THE QUESTIONS OF
CENSUS, APRIL IS
What They are Supposed
to Include.
WILL APPLY TO EVERYBODY
Woman'S Work as Important
as That of Man-Inter-
eSting Questions.

Washington, ID. c., Feb. 28.-The
Occupation" question in the United
States census population schedule to
be carried by the enumerators dur
ing the thirteenth decennial census
beginning April 10 next, applies 70
everybody living in the United States
en- the date mentioned, which is the
Census day" and all the population
schedule questions relate to 1t only.
In its printed instructions to emu
merators the census bureau holds
that the occupation followed by a
child or a woman is just as impor-
~ tant, for census purposes. as the oc-
cupation of a man. Therefore the
enumerators are told never to take IL
for granted without inquiry that a
woman or child old enough to work
has no gainful occupation.
It is pointed out, however, that
only galnful operations are to be re-
ported. By this is meant any en-
ployment, work, profession, or Voca-
ton by which the person working
regularly earns money or its ecuiva-
lent. The fact that a person has no
gainful occupation is to be noted on
the schedule. If a person Is only
temporarily unemployed on account
of lack of work, or sickness, or otner
temporary reason, the occupation
which that person usually follows is
to be reported.
II a person has two occupations
the enumerator must return only the
more important one-that is, the one
from whom 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 illustration, the enumerators are
told to return a man as FARMER
If he gets most of his income from
farming, although he may also follow
the occupation of a clergyman or
preacher. but they must return him
as a Clergyman" if he gets more
of his income from thatoccupatino.
In the case of woman doing
housework in her own ome,wthout
salary or wages, and having no other
employment, the entry is to be that
she has no occupation. But woman
working at housework for wages
should be returned as "housekeep-
err" servant" cook" or chamber
maid" as the case may be, and the
entry should state the place where
she works, as private family no
tel" or boarding house." Or if n
woman, in addition to doing house
work iii her own home, regularly
earns money by some other occupa-
ton, whether pursued in her own
home or outside, that occupation
should be returned. For instance,
woman who regularly takes in wash
ing should be reported as "laundress'
or "washerwoman."

SIGNAL SOUNDED
BY HIS BUGLE
And African Party is Dis
banded.
BEGIN HOME WARD MARCH
ROOSeVelt'S Mule Immune to
Bnyers-They Had Very
Little Sickness.

GondokorO, Soudan, Feb. 2G.-The
camp Of the Roosevelt party is no
more. Its existence terminated at
noon to-day, when, at tie sound of
bugle, the tents were struck.
Then the $50 porters, head men and
gun-bearers, loaded down with bags of
flour and their own personal belong
lngs, started down the trail for Ramp
ola.
They we're more than happy, and all
sang the praises of Colonel Roosevelt,
not only for his prowess as a hunter,
but also for his generosity to them.
They were filled with delight at the
rewards given them, which enabled
them to return to their homes at their
leisure and plenty of collateral with
which to purchase some mere wives.
The picture was not complete owing
to the absence of Colonel Roosevelt
and Kermit. The ether members of
the expedition were. on hand, how
ever, and waved farewell 70 the ma
tives as they left.
For the past two days the camp has
been a busy place. The great number
of traders who flocked into the camp
from the Congo, expecting to get hold
CT a lot of valuable goods for alb
srdly small sums, were disappointed.
One trader bitterly denounced Colonel
Roosevelt as two much of business
man." They had not counted on Mr..
Cunninghame, who, greatly to their
chagrin, insisted upon fair prices for
all the goods.
The mule which had placidly car
ried Colonel Roosevelt for months was
not sold, owing to his sudden fit OF
temper. He absolutely refused to al
low any common trader to approach
him, and no one would buy him and
take a chance on getting away.
At roll call last night, which has
been a part of the system of military
regulation insisted upon by Colonel
Roosevelt, rs Of the natives marched
up and solemnly answered to their
names. The rest of them were out
hunting for lost gun.
The sick report returned by the
Uganda head men showed remarkably
little illness and only a few deaths.
The mortality list was very low, con-
sidering the size of the expedition.
This has been largely owing to the UNI
RENTING care ard vigilance of Mr..
Cunninghame, who has watched over
the porters, varying their loads almost
daily.
As this is written, the last man,
with a sack Of flour is disappearing
over the range, and the breeze brings
lack the faint echo of the African
marching Song. The little group of
white men gave a cheer and DR..
Mearns swallows a lump in his
throat.
"They were q good bunch" he says.

.CRECEL|US LAW
CONSTITUTIONAL
Tobacco Growers Win Not
ably Victory.
APPELLATE COURT REVERSES
Decision of Christian Circuit
COurt-POwer is Not
Exceeded.

The judgment Of the Christian Cir
cult Court was reversed last week by
the Kentucky Appellate Court In the
case of the Commonwealth against
Thomas Hodges, and the cause re-
manded to the lower court to overrule
the demurrer TO an indictment charg-
ing the offense of "unlawfully pur-
chasing pooled tobacco" bought I'M
der the Crecelius law. The court de-
clares this law constitutional.
The Crecelius law was an amend
1nent " the pooling act Of 1906, en-
acted by the legislature in 1908. 1t
was not conterded in the lower court,
or here, that the indictment is itself
defective, but the law upon which
it was based was invalid.
The opinion of the court, covering
twenty mine pages, was prepared by
Court Commissioner Clay. Review
ing the acts regulating contracts, the
status Of frauds and other of like
character, the court says:
st seems to us that the Crecelius
law does not differ in principle from
the acts referred to. The conditions
which gave rise to the act are known
of all men. At the time of its enact
ment, there was but ono buyer fol-
the farmers tobacco. AS individuals
the farmers were unable TO cope with
the situation.
The legislature Of 1906 decided il
wise to enact the law authorizing
pools of the crop and to select an
agent to make the sales. While the
law in question gives the righI of in
junction to prevent such sales, it is
manifest that such means would
prove Intellectual To prevent such
state Of case the unlawful selling OF
pooled products was made misde-
meanor."
The court says the fourteenth
amendment of the constitution is not
violated, that no one is denied equal
protection of the laws. The court
says the act is not void because of a
minor defect in the title.
1--WE cannot say that the legisla-
ture exceeded it's power when it made
the unlawful sale Of pooled products
a misdemeanor.
Having held that it was within
the power of the general assembly
to make it unlawful for the owner to
violate the written consent of the
agent, we think it was likewise with
in its power to enact that a party
who knowingly purchased pooled
products and brought about the
violation of the poolers contract
should also be punished"
