BIRDS OF LITERATURE.
Are Poets Who Chant In Magazines
and Daily Papers.

The world emits a Shakespeare, a
Shelley or Goethe but seldom We
cannot expect every decade to pro-
duee a poetic genius. But what we
are hearing in our literary world to-
day is perhaps just as remarkable as
though there came gush of ex-
quisite melody from some master
singer 1t is a chorus of expert
rhymsters many iof them worthy of a
frame they will not achieve, but which
would surely have been theirs had
they lived fifty a. hundred years ago.
These are the poets who chant or
chirp I'm the magazines or the col
umns of the daily paper They may
not be the nightihgaIes, or gifted with
the divine sweetness of Sheliey's sky
lark. but they are songsters all the

Boston-The recently issued annual
report of the Franklin Mining Co. for
1909. at first glance. seems very dis
appointing in that it shows mining
profits of but $4,000. This figure takes
no account of construction or expenses
in connection with the development OF
the pewabic lode. which cost $4,000
and $4,000 in round figures respec-
lively. The final result of the years

peculiar disease, and butchered for
distribution and consumption in this
city, is condition which the city
authorities allege obtains at the plant
Of the Montana Butchering company
and the hog ranch of J. A. Hample,
near Timber Butte.
Warrants were issued this afternoon
for the arrest of j. A. Hample and
Walter G. Hanson, charging them
with selling unwholesome and diseased
meat to the retailers in Butte.
Milk and Meat Inspector Cosgrove
swore out warrants for the arrest Of
the principal owner Of the butcher
ing company and Mr.. Hample, who
is said to own the hog ranch, Satur-
day, after the thorough examination
OF the slaughter house, the carcasses
Of IS porkers were "coal-oiled' and
this afternoon the inspector will
probably condem a majority Of the
hogs at the ranch as nearly all of
them are more or less affected by the
disease, which is Veterinarian Geo.
Stevenson says is directly due to feed
ing the swine on the entrails Of pre-
viously slaughtered animals.
Butte people last week ate so of
these hogs. The Montana Butcher
ing company, which is one Of the
largest Strengthening concerns in the
city, markets between Is and 100 hogs
to the retailers Of Butte daily.

Census Figures
May Be Too Low
Commercial Club Figures Thirty
Thousand if All Who Live Here
Had Been at Home.

Council Bluffs has a population of $500,
according to the official figures received
last night from the National Census bureau
at Washington. The increase for the ten
years since 1900 is 1906 per cent In 1900
the federal census showed the population
of the city to be 25, SOC. and the census of
1880 gave the town 1.474 people. This was
an increase in that decade of 30.2 per cent.
The official figures coincide very closely
with the estimates made several months
ago by conservative members of the Coun-
Gil Bluffs Commercial club, which approx
mated 10000 There is no disposition to
criticize the accuracy of the count al
though the conviction is strong that enough
people were overlooked to bring the total
up to the 5000 mark or beyond IT, The
census was taken at time when there
was an unusual exodus of people from the
city on summer vacations and land hunt
ing expeditions.
The last city directory, compiled in De-
oember contains 1854 names, exclusive of
firms and corporations, and using the null
tiple OF ga to represent married women
and children represented by the heads of
families, the total population of the town
was then $500. These figures are sus-
tanned by the fact that hundreds OF new
houses have been built and OCCUPIED AL.
most every year since the preceding fed
eral census was made, and wherever the
new houses caused the older ones to be-
come vacant they we're quickly filled BY
| new tenants.
Another fact pointed out is that at the
time the census was being taken Their,
we're more vacant houses in the city thar
there had been at any previous time IL
ten years. All OF these houses are now oc
| eupied and the demand for rental propert,
is greater than the supply. stin. anothe
fact that sustains the higher estimate Il
| the school census and the enrolment o
pupils The census taken last summe
shows the largest number OF children o
school age in the history Of the city, an
the enrolment in october is greater thai
year ago.
