 Ma put the letter into the fire and then she went and told grandma. how Aunt Mag had acted and grandma told Aunt Mag if she ever caught her teas in me about Jake again she knew what she'd get. Well, that kind of scared Aunt Mag. and so she let me alone. But in about another week an- other letter come from Jake. Ma was so tickled about it she showed 1t to Aunt Mag. Say, it was a plump copy of the first onei
 Well, Aunt Mag said they nearly died laughin, but ma.threw that letter into the fire, too. She wouldn't answer it even when grandma told her she'd ought to.

COAL MINE FATALITIES.

That coal mining is a perilous oc- equation constant mining accidents have made clear; and the high aver age of fatalities connected with the work leaves no doubt that every pro- tection which should be extended to these workers is not given to them. dt is a bad record which shows that four lives s day have been lost in American coal mines on the average for q quarter of a century. The latest report sheEs that the total number of deaths in coal mine accidents last year re have been 7412 against 2,45o in rhs preceding year
 The total number of deaths for which causes have been assigned in the past 8 years was 36,276. and the number of non-fatal accidents was Tz-5s5- Of these gas and dust ex- Stvo-thirds of those injured being in ths anthracite mines of Pennsylva niz,; powder explosions and windy shots killed 1889 and injured 4,367; falls of roof and coal killed 14.51e, and injured 31.6z1; and 9,732 deaths and & 1es injuries were due to other causes It is to be observed that near 8v 50 per cent of the total number of deaths were from falls Of roof and that only f5 per cent were due to explosions of gas and dust.
 The killed and the injured have averaged over eleven a day for a quarter of a century. What other in dustry has such a record as this?

SCARCITY OF LABOR.

Scarcity of labor has come to be a world cry It is not because men are scarce, but because too many men are in nc productive employment and too many are trained specialists who de- cline to lend a hand in other lines of industry Every agricultural section of this country is calling for depend able hands at reasonable prices-every truck gardener in the rural zone ad- facent to the cities finds himself hand iczpped first by the conditions de- mandec by those willing to work, and, next by inability to procure experf- enced workers of the land. Kansas is going to call for 4o.eee men temporsri- ly to help gather it's great crop of grain this summer

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
The Fifth Wheel of the Corporation
 Coach.

Mir Editor: The fifth wheel of a wagon has recently been discovered by writer in the New York Sun He thinks it is the horizontal wheel under the front part of the wagon body, by which the forward wheels are allowed to cramp so that the wagon can be turned around and sent in any direc- ton.
 And now we have a fifth wheel also to our municipal corporation coach. It was not invented, so far as has been learned, by "the seventh son of a seventh son." but it is composed in part of seven felIoes bolted to the tire. It sems to be well executed and may work well, after while, if one of the felloes don't get off his nut"
 There are some indications, how ever, of that already, and it looks as if the driver would have to put on more of his party wheel grease to keep the new wheel from creaking, while he shouts to the tagging horses: GO lang there! what er ye about?"

 Today I saw at different times small dogs running around the fountain though they were hunting for some thing to drink from, but could not find it. They would try to reach up but were too short to reach the water, so they went along with tongues out water so near and yet so far

THE BUSY CENSUS BUREAU.

The census bureau is getting down to work and important reports are expected to be ready for publication by the middle of July.
 Concerning the population division, the bureau reports that the work or the 10000 enumerators has been sub stantially completed. The schedules containing the population returns have been received from 3S,000 dis tricts, or more than half the total num- Der. Some idea of the magnitude of the work of the enumerators, which includes the agricultural census as well as the population, may be gained from the fact th.t between October 2, 1909, and May 28, last, 32,747,132 schedules, blanks, etc, were sent to supervisors and enumerators, contained in 145,7 ,743 packages.
 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 is 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 later be tab ulated by electric tabulating ma chimes.
 The agricultural division anticipates the receipt of about 6,500000 farm schedules, besides a large number of irrigation, plantation, florist, and nurs- cry schedules. as well as about 2,00o,- 900 schedules covering livestock in cities and villages, not on farms Fully one-third of the schedules of each kind have already been received and are in the hands of the clerk for ex- animation and tabulation. The sched- ules are first classified according t. the color of the farmer, the tenure. and the size of the farm. and are then tabulate by means of various kinds of adding machines. About 20 ada ing machines will be used in this work.
 The division of manufactures con- ducts an annual inquiry regarding the production of lumber and other forest products. Returns have been received from 57 0O0 of the s5,0o0 establish ments to which cards were sent re- garding the business of the yeSr 1909. The annual work of collecting statis- ties of cotton ginning. which also falls to the division of manufacturers, has been completed for the crop year 1909 and the report has just been issued, entitled Cotton Production. 1902"
 The division Of vital statistics whi ,h collects annual statistics of births and deaths, reports that the tabula ton of the mortality statistics for 1909 is well under way and is expected to end by July 20- From January 1 to May q the reports of 16e,230 deaths occurring during 1910 were received by this di- vision. It is preparing to issue its first report on birth statistics, cover ing the year 1908, the tabulation for which is nearly completed

Where were these conventions heId7 Who were the leading. men in them? What platforms were adopted? :? Who were the various candidates brought forward from whom to choose a nominee?
