The following interesting report re-
garding the population of Iceland
comes from Copenhagen: The census
of Iceland, begun Dec. 1, 1910, is now
completed and the figures have been
made public. This gives the island
population of S5,OS9. The popula-
tion on Nov. 1, 1901, was 78,47O, the
ratio of increase thus being nine per
thousand each year, little less than
the ratio in Denmark. The popula-
tion of Iceland in 1901 was 47,2OO.
From that time on there was steady
increase until 1889, when the popula-
ton was 72,400. During the eighties,
however, an epidemic, together with a
heavy emigration, checked the in
crease of population. At the present
time the population is on the increase
again. About two-t1fths of the peo,
pie of Iceland live in the cities or
towns. The largest city is the capital,
Reykjavik, which boasts of a popula-
tion of 1853.

Macaronic verse is verse written in
more than one language or one Ian
guage twisted to appear like another.
For example, long poem on wine,
dating from early in the sixteenth CEN
tury, begins:
The best tree, If ye take intent,
Inter ligna fructifera,
Is the vine tree by good argument.

FORMER CIRCUIT CLERK
IN HENDERSON JAIL
Official is in Bad and Bond has
Not been Given-Has Re-
signed Office.

Henderson, KY, Sept. 4.--For som,
time it has been expected that w. G.
Moseley would offer his resignation a
circuit court clerk. Last night the
expected happened. Judge J. w. Hen
SON of the circuit court received the
resignation and accepted it. A sue
cassor to Mr.. Moselsy probably wall
be appointed today.
Judge Henson said last night that
he had not dIscidsd upon who liz
would appoint as Mr.. Moseley's sue
cessor, but said that II would be some
good Democrat. Several persons are
applicants for the position, but it is
not known whether any one of thcm
will land the plum, as Judge Henson
refused to give out any information 4
to his choice, If he had made one.
Mr. Moselsy is in Jail at present on
the charge of converting another's
property to his own use. 1t is alleged
that Mr.. MoSeely used the money OF
George Robinson, of whom he was
custodian. Moseley's bondsmen, a
trust company, had to make up the
deficiency, amounting to ever $4,000.
The company swore out a warrant for
Mr.. Moseley's arrest. He gave bond
andcontinued to attend to his duties
as circuit clerk until few days ago,
when his bondsmen gave him up and
he was put in Jail.
]. L. Horton, who is on his official
bond, asked to be released, and the
case was set to be tried before Coun-
ty Judge S. A. Young today.
A great many people are under the
impression that Judge Henson had the
right to move a circuit court clerk
for misconduct or malfeasance in Of
flee. Under the law, Judge Henson
had no such authority, the power Of
resting entirely with the
court of appeals. The resignation of
Mr.. Moseley is no surprise, as it was
looked for by everyone who knows
about the case. Circuit court
convened today, and something had to
be done in the matter, as Mr.. Moseley
was in jail and the court practically
without a clerk.
