Population of Cities.

THE New York World Almanac for
1915, just issued. gives the estimated
population of Birmingham as 10000
the same as last year-and those
figures are very conservative said a
statistician of Birmingham. Ala. we
probably have between 10000 and
100000 inhabitants.
Atlanta is estimated at 100000
the same as last year. But the Texas
cities, especially Houston, Dallas and
San Antonio, have been moved up
considerable. In the census of 1910
Texas was without a city of 100000.
Now Houston is credited with 10000,
Dallas with $4,000 and San Antonio
with 100000.
New York city grows bigger every
year and its estimated population is
5.625.000. Chicago, according to the
World Almanac. has 2,4S7 ,526."

TO OPEN LAND IN THE DAKoTAs
Public to Inspect Claims and Then
Make Filings.

Sioux City, Iowa.-The government
has issued a proclamation opening the
Standing Rock Indian reservation to
settlement. according to word received
from Washington Saturday. This res
ervation is in both South and North
Dakota.
A new system is to be used which
does away with the old lottery system
used at Rosebud and other places. The
land will be open to inspection from
May to May 10. and filing may be
made on the latter date. In the event
there are two or more applicants for
the same piece of land then the con
testants will draw lots.
In North Dakota the filings will be
made in Bismarck and in South Dako
ia at Timber Lake. There are 1900,
600 acres in the reservation, but after
the state has taken its share, and
with the Indian allotments made
there will remain 100000 acres fol
settlement.

Doctors Live Long.

Doctors are notoriously their own
most disobedient patients. Usually
they eat and sleep irregularly, they
are out in all kinds of weather, and
they hesitate at no danger of conta-
gion or infection; yet of the 2205 ply
sicians who died in the United States
last year, 214 were more than eighty
years old, and 81 of them more than
80. The average age was about 81
years. Probably doctors dose them
selves less than other people do.

1t must be understood that an able
seaman like Neal Hardin, while his
good behavior, his natural attitude
and his general liability gave him
many priyileges-yet he was still the
victim of caste-naval caste As
civilian he might travel with ladies
of dignity such as his mother, and
young women of style and beauty,
such as Annette llineton and her

get you a place on the back stairs

Figuratively speaking, he got him
a place on the back stairs without
much difficulty, and after Neal had
spent a day in assisting his fellow
able seamen In polishing up every
thing aboard the Alabama that could
be polished, and in swabbing every
thing aboard her that could be
