Navy Yard guns doomed at sunrise, disturbing
the uneasy rest Of the President-elect. Volun-
teer corps of militia arose early to assemble,
and soon the inns and taverns of the city began
to disgorge their crowds Of visitors. Many Of
these had travelled long distances over rough
roads by stage coach, on horseback, in gigs, cur
r1cleS or ConeStoga wagons. A lady living near
Baltimore had marveled to see three coaches
and-four pass her door in the course Of an aft
ernoon but a tavern-keeper outdid this by re-
porting six in one day. It was difficult to find
accommodation for them all. There were but

Those who were up betimes and who hastened
from breakfast to the new Representatives

them, but those who arrived as late as 10

time every place was filled. Some 10000 people
unsuccessfully sought seats or standing room
to witness the Inauguration. The Senate con-

The crowd of 10000 still awaited outside As
soon as Chief Justice John Marshall had ad-

given and two rounds of minute guns were
fired. 1t was time for shouting, which was loud

Cities Gain Population

DURING 1882, when employment in the
- cities was sinking to dsastrously low fig
ures. the annual shift of population from cities
to farms and from farms to cities prepon-
derantly in favor of the farms, the farms gain
ing 1000 more persons than were lost to the
cities
This was occasioned of course by the fact
that on farm, in times of depression, at least
it Is possible to eat, be sheltered and be sup
piled with fuel
This past year, however, the trend was the
other way. Some increase in normal employ
ment coupled with the various public relief
jobs and the straightaway relief rolls kept thou
sands in the cities who otherwise might have
sought their livelihood in the country.
On January 1, despite the loss to the cities,
farm population reached total Of 32,5o9,000.
the highest point in history. This was ex-
planned by the fact that births SO exceeded
deaths. the loss to cities was offset.

Back-to-fhe-Laud
Increment Sbeeded

The back-to- tle-land movement and the
movement to link part-time industrial activity
with part-time work on the farm, one OF the
proposed solutions of the unemployment prob
lem already is under way on really appre-
ciable scale.
An analysis of figures obtained by the Gen.
sus Bureau in Is Eastern, Southern and Gen.
tral States disclosed many lines of activities In
which persons living on farms obtained outside
income to aid in meeting their living expenses
and supplying cash for those demands for
which farmer must have ready money.
In the census from which the figures were
obtained it was found that in the Is States
studied. 900 people were employed at
part-time factory work. Many also did work
for factories at home sold raw materials
required by the small industries for their prod
ucts.
The factories included textile mills paper
plants canning factories. meat-packing plants,
machine shops. leather factories, clay and glass
industries. Some Of the factories are owned
entirely by farm people, some are financed in
part by farm people More than half the fac
tories surveyed are in North Carolina, Pennsyl-
vania and Virginia; there is good representa-
ton in West Virginia, Massachusetts, and New
York. and the remainder are scattered gener-
ally throughout the area covered by the survey.
The bureau reports that most of the farmers
receiving some income their investments,
and that the existence of the factories afforded
an expanded outlet for locally produced fruits,
vegetables eggs, poultry. milk and other farm
products. Most of the farm people working
for wages in the factories were receiving from
$500 to 81 900 in wages per worker. there were
many part-time workers who received $50 to
$500 year. and a few farm people were fac
tory superintendents who received around
$4,000 a year.
The bureau reports that outside employment
of farm people is especially pronounced in areas
where small farms are numerous and where
agriculture is handicapped by unfavorable nat
ural resources. Its survey excluded the subsist-
junct of industrial employment, and included
only people living on farms as defined by the
census.
Some of the farm people interviewed in the
bureaus current survey said that were it not
for the income received from outside industrial
work they would have to quit farming, others
that the local industrial employment kept young
people on the farm. Some complaint was voiced
that wages were too low, but the consensus was
that the farm people, employed even in part
time industrial work were better off, financially
and socially. than if they lived in the city.

maps, models of warships, etc. A little
later he was instructed in the distinctive
marks of rank, calibers and models of
artillery types, tonnages and armaments
of ships, geography and topography, the
use of sympathetic inks, chemical re-
agents, special ciphers, etc. He was
taught to evaluate information derived
from others and from the press. If he
showed aptitude in mastering all this he
proceeded to the specialized study of
what was to be his business as spy;
numbers and kinds of troops mobilized
or demobilized and of divisions that COM
pose them, whereabouts of commands,
Notifications, the number of the wound
ed in hospitals, location of supply depots,
etc, etc.
Accuracy-no liberation of vagueness
is the object in training secret agents,
and the information they are set to
gather is infinite. We may cheerfully
assume that a vast body of foreign agents
now in this country are making reports on
all matters military and industrial which,
could they be read by our State Depart
ment, would raise the hair of all the
secretarial heads. In war time the gath
