outfieIders work a Surprise.

With the return OF Morris Belt mas
decided to let Vasbinder go. The work
of thi5 PLAYER, while good, has been
quite a surprise to followers OF the
sport Many predicted early in the
season that he would be one OF the
best hitting outfelders in the league.
His work during the training season,
when pitchers were sticking item
over. was quite noticeable. But when
the league pitchers broke loose ne
was unable to connect with the ball
consistently. AT that he has been
about as strong as Morris, but the
latter'g ability TO play as an utility
player makes his services absolutely
necessary.
Belt received q telegram from OAR
bv O,Brien, manager OF the Duluth
team, asking If the Keokuk leader
could send rim a catcher and an out
fielder. The request seems to come at
very opportune time, and Belt VIII
be able to comply.

much reading matter of interest, es-

the Louisville, New Orleans & Texas

WHAT THE CENSUS BUREAU rs
DOING.

An idea Of the wide scope as well
as of the present status of the various
statistical operations of the census bu-
reau may be gained from a report
which Census Director Durand has
just made to Secretary Nagel of the
department of commerce and labor.
THIS report covers the progress of the
three great branches of the regular
dicennial census-pOpulation, agricul-
ture and manufactures-and also the
current annual Investigations which
the bureau conducts from year to year
and certain special Investigations in
which It has recently been engaged,
aside from the decennial census.
Concerning the population division,
the report states that the work of the
10000 enumerators has been substan-
TALLY completed The schedules con-
tanning the population returns have
been received from $4,000 districts, or
more than half the total number. Some
.dea of the magnitude of the work of
the enumeratOrs which includes the ag
ricultural census as well as the pOpu-
lation, may be gained from the fact
that between Oct. 2, 1909, and May
% last, 32,747,132 schedules, blanks,
etc, were sent to supervisors and enum
orators, contained in 1878 packages.
Work on Population Schedules.
When the population schedules are
received they are subjected to a hand
count for the purpose of determining
the number of people, on which the
pay of the enumerators in most cases
S based They are then subjected to
| examination with reference to their
correctness, especially with respect to
mother tongue and occupations. Next
they go to the punching machines,
where one card is punched for each
| person; these cards will be later tabu-
lated by electric tabulating machines.
The first Of the new style punching
machines were received May 2; actual
work on them on the returns of 1910
was begun on May %, and about IS of
the machines are now in operation
day and night. There are also about
14O of the old style plunger punching
machines in use. At the present time
about 5000 cards are being punched
daily, but it is expected to increase
this number shortly to 100000 cards
and to complete the punching for the
entire population by Oct. l.
Plan for Population Announcements
The census bureau, expects soon TIC
begin giving out to the press and the
public the population returns for the
cities of the country. Announcements
will be made from day to day, as rap
idly as the totals are asceftained, one
announcement being made in the morn
ING for the convenience of the evening
papers, and another in the Afternoon
or evening for the morning papers. Ii
order to prevent any discrimination
the announcements will be so made
that all press associations and Wash
ington correspondents can obtain the
returns at the same time. Papers no
having correspondents or press asso
citation service may, if they request t
be telegraphed at their own expense
the population returns for their owl
cities as soon as available.

road a city ticket office on the principal

For some time II has been evident to the
officers of the United States National bank
that they needed more room, as the pres
ent building, while a beauty from an artis-
tic point OF view, has altogether too much
waste space for its location. The d.ree-
