GETS MEDAL BY DESIGN;
ADDRESS BY MISTAKE
Kinu Victor Emmanuel Saves Sit
uation as Gen. Woodford
TrembIes in Shoes

ROME. April 30.-A little incident
connected with the delivery by Gen.
Stewart L. Woodford of the Hudson
Fulton medal and embossed address to
King Victor Emmanuel last Monday
has just come to light
When General Woodford asked MIR.
Leishman, the American ambassador,
to arrange for an audience with the
king for the presentation of the testi-
monials Mr.. Leishman thought the
king might object to the passage in
the address which read:
'In the spiritual relations which
connect a large number of our people
with their religious head in Rome.
which was an open allusion to the
pope.
Asked if he would not consent to
suppress this passage General Wood
ford declared he did not feel authorized
to cut down an address bearing the
signatures of such men as Andrew car
negie, Joseph H. Choate, Gen. F'reder-
iclz D. Grant and j. p. Morgan.
Therefore it was decided to present
it to the king.
When the time for the audience ar
rived General Woodford was unable to
find the medal He was compelled, how
ever to keep the appointment, and
proceeded to the Quirinal, leaving or
ders for a search to be made for the
medal and that it be rushed to him
when it was found,
Just as he was entering the presence
of the king a parcel was showed into
the hand of General Woodford. Tear
ing off the wrapping he found the
medal, but was Mortified to find the
address in the package.
1t was impossible to conceal the case
containing the document, as it was too
large to fit in his pocket. The situa-
ton was an embarrassing one, but Cen
eral Woodford presented both the med
al ana the address.
King Victor Emmanuel, however,
soon allayed General Woodford's dis
comfture, for, after turning over the
satin leaves Of the address, he de-
clared that he was delighted with it
and would acknowledge its receipt in
a letter to Ambassador Leishman.

ANYBODY SEEN DUFFYS
LEG? RAS DID--TOO LATE
As Snapper, Jimmy Makes An
Cient King of the Jews
Look Like a Dub

When little Jimmy Duffy put his
name down in the great register at the
county Jail yesterday for thirty days
board and lodging he had two legs.
When Deputy Sheriff Nolan made the
rounds a few minutes later and peaked
into his cell Jimmy was supported by
only one pin. What the i" ejacu-
lated Nolan, studying the man care
fully. "Wheres your other prop?"
"Mortgaged me timber fer chunk
of tobac," growled Jimmy surlily.
Here, here, that won't do" retorted
Nolan severely. 1--WE can't work you
on the road on one leg"
Il know yer can't" grinned Jimmy.
That's just why 1 traded"
A search was instituted for Duffy's
prop. They traced it to the cell next
door, where a shrewd little Pole had
passed the leg to little German for
his coat. The German in turn had
traded for a thicker coat with He
brew, who had swapped his shoes.
From the Hebrew the leg had
Travelled around the corner and into
another tier of cells, where it had
passed into the possession of a Greek,
who spent a pair of pants for it. The
Greek had loaned it fer inspection to
an italian across the way, who prompt
ly took advantage of the Greeks child
like simplicity and slipped the piece of
timber to an Irishman. The latter be-
gan to bounce it off the head of his
negro celmate, "Ras' Brock. Only the
black mans howls of pain led to the
discovery of Duffy's leg.
AS a consequence, Duffy goes to work
Monday on both pins, while the Pole is
minus his tobacco, the German his coat,
the Hebrew his shoes, the Greek is
painless and a badly frightened coon
is nursing a very sore head, with only
the consolation that his Irish cellmate
is on bread and water for several days
to come.
"That was the biggest miXup we've
had here for a long time" said Nolan.
"I raced around that Jail for an hour
tracing that artificial leg. If we
hadn't found it Duffy's stay here would
have been one long sweet vacation"

LISTED AS IDIOT
IF YOU GET CAY,
SAYS CENSUS MAN
Supervisor Farmer Granted Five
Days More for Work by
Director Durand
SHOWS FORCE is TOO SMALL
Population Increased Too Great
for Number of Men in
the Field

Bert L. Farmer, supervisor of the
census for Los Angeles, yesterday an
nounced the receipt of a telegram from
the census bureau at Washington
granting five days additional time tor
. the completion of the count in this city.
The allowance was made by e. Dana
Durand, director of the census, as
result of representations by Mr.. Farmer
regarding the extraordinary growth
which Los Angeles has had during the
past ten years, which made it imposs1-
BILE to obtain a full count of the inhab-
itants in fifteen days with the limited
force of enumerators which the depart
ment allowed.
If only 100000 had been added to the
nopulation Of Los Angeles since the
last census, instead of double that
number. the force of enumerators al
lotted to the city would have ben SUM-
cient to have made thorough canvass
within the time limit, but when 1t is
realized that to the city of 1900, with lts
100000 population, another with twice
that number has been added, 1t Will pc
understood why the bureaus estimate
of the number of enumerators neces-
sary for the task was insufficient
EXTENDS TIME
"Early in the week, in a letter TO
the director of the census, told MN
that it would be impossible for US TO
complete the count in the time speclleu
under the existing conditions, and re-
ouested an extension of time, when L
have been sure would be granted us, all
though we have been working just as
hard as if we would be able to say
Done at - o'clock tonight" said Mr.:
Farmer last night. "ln the addltlonaI
five days granted us, closing THURSDAY
night at midnight, we Will be aple 10
make sure that no one escapes US, ana
ii will be an industrious and worthy
person who lodges the enumerators on
this last leg of the count.
s'Ignumerators will be instructed not
to lose time with persons who refuse
them information hereafter, as we nave
found that there are very lew VINO VIII
not meet us fairly. To save time IN the
last few days of the count these per
sons will be listed as idiots incapable
of answering questions. This is in ac-
cord with the census regulations, and
saves the time of the enumerators,
and besides has the merit of not losing
any names for the count.
10 KEEP OPEN
The chamber of commerce is keping
open until late every night, and Will pc
open all day today for the accommoda-
ton of those who have not been inter-
viewed by the enumerators Several
clerks are kept busy during the day,
assisting those who come in to fill out
the census blanks, besides which tele-
phone calls are constantly received
from firms employing large numbers OF
persons for blanks to be sent to their
offices. so that none of their employees
would be overlooked. One of the
broadway stores telephoned in three
times yesterday for blanks, finding a
surprisingly large number among it's
employees who had not been reached by
the enumerators.
