Several Pine Bluff negroes are most likely to be named as census enum- orators in this city and county, if they stand the efficiency test, which is to be given applicants The ne- groes will be expected to take cen
 sus among negroes and not visit white homes, which will be covered by white enumerators. A special from Washington on this subject says:
 Predicting that the coming count will show approximately 10,o00,000 ne- groes in the United States, directing that negroes be selected to count their race in those enumeration districts blacks muster two-fifths or more of the population and requiring both white and negro enumerators in many southern districts to preclude negroes from enumerating white, Census Di-

Friends, True and False

Dear Miss Thomas: VIII YOU admit another
stranger to your happy circle?
VIII he who calls himself friend weep with
you in your hours of distress-faithfully re-
proye you to your face for actions which others
are censuring and ridiculing behind your back,
stand forth in your defencel when distraction
il aiming its weapon at your reputation, at
knowledge you with the same cordially anu
behave to you with the same friendly attention
in the company OF your superiors in rank ano
fortune as when the claims of pride do not
interfere? Or, If misfortune and loss should
oblige you to retire into walk OF life In when
You cannot appear with the same liberality as
formerly, will they still be happy in your com
pany and cheerfully assist you to support the
burden Of your afflictiong
II so, then "grapple such friend to your
heart with hooks of STEEL and you shall know
the privilege Of having one true friend. 1t is
great thing to cover the blemishes and to ex-
cuse the faults of friend, but to proclaim
their virtues upon the housetops is a much
more noble deed. We want to weigh our
friends, and prosperity is no just scale. Ad-
versIty is the only true balances. True friend
ship must Withstand the shocks OF adversely
before it Is entitled to the name. and friend
ships which are born In adversely more firm
and lasting than those formed in prosperity, as
iron is more strongly united in the fiercest
flames.
Real friends always quick to visit us in
adversely. If we cannot discriminate between
our friends adversely will do it for us. Pros
perity gains friends and adversely tries them.
False friends like sh ue-vs; they keep
close TO us while we walk in the sunshine,
but leave us the moment we go into the shade
Friendship gives new life and animation to
the object 1t supports. Cling TO your friends
after having chosen them with proper caution.
IL they reprove you, thank them; If they
grieve you, forgive them; if circumstances rear
them from you, circumstances may make them
yours again.
Friendship is a heavenborn principle, since

man lay down his life for his friends" II
has come through all ages and is destined to
