wASH1NGTON-The indications be-
w ing that the census will show the
population of the United States to be
over 9O,000,000, it seems assured that
the republic contains more than half
Of the Inhabitants of the New World.
It Is quite probable that all of the re-
naming countries Of this hemisphere
have fewer than S0.000,000 inhabi-
tants.
That point can never be settled def
nitely until conditions change radi-
cally in many extensive regions OF
Latin America. Now most Of the
states south of Mexico and north of
the Argentine either make farce of
their census taking or else do not at
tempt it at any time.
Recent estimates, partly based upon
census records, which have been
made In South America and Central
America, indicate that there are about
100000 people living between the
Rio Grande and Cape Horn, Including
the West Indies. Canada has per-
haps 100000, allowing for rapid
growth since the census of 1901, and
Newfoundland adds less than $50. 900.
Unless the estimates, which seem
most intelligently made, are very wide

where there are no authentic and ex.
act statistics Of population. the total

DEGULAT1ONS to protect children

Fairgrounds of the Streets" says Maj.
Sylvester, has been long since estab-
lished. Now that there are public
Fairgrounds In different sections of
the city the children should use them
rather than. risk their lives"
Complaints against children playing
on the streets sometimes cause a peck
of trouble to thu police.
Children jump upon moving street
cars. Others stand upon the streets.
Others are loud and boisterous.
In past years Maj. Sylvester has ia
vored the enactment of limited cur
few law. He still thinks something

should be done for the better protec.
ton of children's morals.
Death and accident, have been
caused by street cars and other vehi.
cles," the superintendent Of police
says. ION the other hand, children
playing on the streets have caused
destruction to property.
Ball playing on. the Streets" he
continued, has resulted in complaints
on account of noises and broken win
dows. The same hue and cry Ii
raised when vacant lots are used for
baseball and other games. At times.
In certain localities, large and noisy
gatherings are attracted"
Maj. Sylvester wants the 3oembers
Of his command to deal gently with
boys who cause trouble While he
wants the youngsters to get what en-.
joymeht they can, he does not, how.
ever, want them to violate the law.
Street corner gatherings are to be
broken up. the superintendent says.
Indulgence in profanity and other bad
language is to mean punishment. All
offenders who are caught will be pros
ecnted. The police think that keep
ing boys off the streets at night would
accomplish much good.

aridity increases until in the vicinity OF the ha-
cienda of that name extreme desert conditions
are found. The ancient structures here are in
dicative of type of civilization characteristic Of

been in the pueblos Of the northern deserts in
America.
One of the most difficult problems to solve is
that Of transportation in the desert and there are
extensive areas in American deserts that have
not yet been systematically explored by reason
of this condition
A comprehension of the part that water plays
IN existence and travel in the desert is to be
gained only by experience. Some Of the native
animals such as mice and other small rodents
have been known to live on hard seeds without
green food for periods Of several months, or even
as long as two or three years, and nothing in
their behavior indicated that they ever took LIQUID
in any FORM
Deer and peccary are abundant In deserts in
Sonora In which the only available supply Of omen
water is to be found In the cacti.

are NOT unknown in which sufferers from thirst
have forded streams waist deep to wander out on
the dry plain to grisly death.
Scouting Indians have long used the bisnaga

skilled operator in five to ten minltes Some trav
elers are inclined to look with much distayor on
the liquid so obtained, but it has been used with
out discomfort by members of expeditions fyom
the desert laboratory. That it is often preferred
by Indians to fair water is evidenced by the fact
that the Whipple expedition found the Mohayes
near the mouth of the Bill Williams river in
1853, cooking ducks and other birds in tho Juice
of these plants by means of heated stones
dropped into the cavity containing the pulp.
