THE SAINT PAUL DAILY GLOBE: :; SUNDAY MORNING, : AUGUST '4, 1895.— SIXTEEN PAGES. 7 lailiWOMDlpitp WORK OF THE CENSUS BUREAU IN COUNTING PEOPLE OF MINNESOTA. THE NUMBER IS NOT KNOWN i i i BUT IT AVILL NO DOI'BT EX- j CEED A MILLION AXD A HALF. INCIDENTS OF TIIE COUNT. ' : ! ' I i runny Things Done by Witty and j Witless Members of the Force j of Enumerators. ! I i The work of numbering the people ' ln the fourth decennial census of the j state was completed Wednesday. A : few days more will be required to ] place the final returns in the hands \u25a0 of the census bureau, after which the long and arduous labor of compila- tion of the results for publication in j compliance with the census law will I be entered on. For the latter pur- | pose Secretary of State Berg, su- ' perintendent of the census, has un- til the first of the year as a limit, but the work will be prosecuted with such vigor that the publication will take place at a much earlier date. Until that time, however, nothing authentic may be made known of the results, as the census law of '95 ! provides that no part of the census ' statistics shall be made public until . the same are printed under the pro- [ visions of the act. I The work of taking the census has been a task of considerable magni- tude and difficulty owing to increase in population, brief time allotted for j doing the work and somewhat limit- j ed resources for its performance, j The appropriation made for the pur- | pose was $45,000, which will fall short j of the amount necessary, except by ' the exercise of the strictest econ- omy. This, of course, Supt. Berg has employed throughout and has been obliged to limit the compensa- tion of his employes in order to keep within bounds. His own compen- sation is, perhaps, as meager as that of any subordinate when the time taken is considered. He re- ceives $500 for his services under the provisions of the census law. FAITHFUL WORK. In the performance of the work Mr. Berg had an able colaborer in his assistant, Capt. Wdldt, and he states that the employes of the bu- reau generally worked faithfully and well at the tasks assigned them. Capt. Wildt was in a particularly happy frame of mind yesterday at the prospect of closing up the out- side branch of the work and having the remainder of the labor under his immediate eye and control. "When you come to think of the short time allowed us," said he in speaking of the matter yesterday, "and the re- strictions and limits placed upon us in the way of funds wherewith to carry out the provisions of the cen- sus law, I believe it will be conceded that the- bureau has done very well. "Why, the final results of the United States census taken in IS9O are but just now promulgated. Five years old, those statistics are, and of rio practical value outside of a historic point of view. Conditions today are vastly different to what they were when the government census was taken, yet we are only now learning the full results. I understand, of course, that the government census is a much more elaborate affair than ours, but the means of doing the work were practically unlimited, while we had to be very careful and economical. A census, to have a proper value, and meet the object . for which it is taken, should be com- pleted as quickly as may be con- sistent with accuracy. This we have done so far and will urge on what remains to be done with every celer- ity consistent with correctness. The rest of the work will be in the office of the bureau and of a quieter na- ture than the enumeration branch, md I feel that we will have a breath- ing spell. It is quite a relief, I as- sure you." A month ago was found neces- sary, owing to the magnitude of the york in the Twin Cities, to establish i branch bureau in Minneapolis, vhere the work of checking the re- urns of the state enumerators with hose of the local committee and where the individual had b.en pre- viously enumerated; special forms to ' indicate the fact when' information had j been obtained second-hand; forms to': indicate refusal to give the required in- . i formation, and special forms to be ; i used where renumeration was on the . basis of a per diem. j i Almost from the date of the passage ! and approval of the law, April 22, until , ' the time of appointment of enumer- I ' ators, June 1, applications for the po- J ; . sition of enumerator began to pour in. j From some of the city districts as J many as flfty applicants for a single ! place were received, and it is fair to ' ' ; say that, on an average, there were , ; ten applications for each place, or 10, I | 000 applications for the 1,000 appoint- i ; ments which were made. The matter j ! of appointments was under the special | ; charge of Secretary Berg and Capt. I : Wildt, and the selections were made 1 ! without regard to politics or political j ! aflliation, on the basis of qualification | ! only. About June 1 the full force was j j actively at work gathering names, and j ; almost immediately reports from this J i force and schedules filled with names ! ; began to arrive at the bureau. As fast j ' as th? schedules and reports were re- ! ; ceived they were marked j ! WITH A FILE STAMP, (showing their dat? of arrival. After ! j being inspected as to regularity of ! | form they were filed away by counties i and by district numbers, in the port- j folios and schedules In which they ' I were qualified. The correspondence up to this time j had been enormous in volume and re- j quired the constant employment of sev- eral stenographers to answer letters j alone. All correspondence, all reports I j and all schedules were carefully and properly filed away in their proper places. By the middle of June some i few of the smaller districts were com- I pleted, and from that time until July | 31 final returns were being received j from all over the field. The average j size of the enumeration districts in the j country would be one or two town- ships ranging from 1,200 to 3.000 people. ! In the larger cities the districts would 1 I range from 2,500 to 5,500 people. With I Iso many enumerators it would be ' I strange if all were equally competent or fitted for the work. In some few cases enumerators resigned or the bureau was compelled to remove them and appoint others. Such cases were very rare, and on the whole the force j in the field was very efficient indeed. j The work of checking up and count- I ing names in various enumeration dis- | tricts began in the latter part of June | j as districts were finally completed, and j j is going on at the present time. Some ! changes have been made in the em- -1 ployes of the census bureau since the j office was first instituted last spring. ; The present force of the bureau is as i follows: J Albert Berg, superintendent- or j census; Capt. P. W. Wildt, assistant; j \\. S. Tupper, George F. Wright, I clerks; Miss Sadie Owre, Miss Mary I Gilflllan, Miss May V. McKay, sten- | ographers; Miss Jennie Bixby, Miss. Julia Nichols, Miss Esther Cavallii., Nick C. O'Connor, clerks. COMPENSATION SMALL. The schedule of compensation lor the I enumerators has not been liberal and the bureau would gladly have increased the compensation in many cases had j it been possible to do so under the law. i As it is it is doubtful if the appropria- j tion will suffice for the compiling and publishing of the reports. In calculat- ing the expense of the work the legis- ! lature did not- take sufficiently into j consideration the increase, in. popula- tion and the many inevitable in- cidental expenses that cannot be fore- j seen and calculated upon in a work of i such magnitude. . i In dealing with different cities, or the state and different parts , of the state the bureau has applied to all the same rules and granted to all the same treatment. No special favors have been shown to any locality or to any city, and it is believed that the results mentioned would have listed him had l he run across him. Enumerator No. 9, Polk county, com- plains that he has the worst district j in the state, and nearly lost his horses i and his life fording a mile of one of its highways. One of the Mower county appointees, who was anxious to do his full duty and have a full count in his district, wrote to the bureau that since enumerating a family the mother had a new baby and he wanted to know if he could take. it. The bureau told him he could if the mother was willingto part with it. An enumerator of Itasca county reports "delayed on account of mosquitos." In the same county an- other traveled 500 miles by canoe, ac- cording to his own statement. In one district in the northern part of the state eight twins were found and duly listed. In still another a babe was listed in advance of its birth. The enumerator explained that it would be born in due season, and ought to have a show. "Disability reports" were amusing, the causes assigned for being unable . to proceed being as variable as imagi- nation could make them. One man- probably the crusader— had to knock off work long enough to attend camp meeting. "*•'•'/-\u25a0' The enumerator in northern Cass county had a hard time with Indian names. Onnish-kego-quay, Ching-wah- nah-quod, Ped-way-way-gwon-e-be- quay, etc., etc., are samples. The unorganized counties, gave con- siderable trouble. The enumerator frequently omitted the number of his district in his schedule, and instead of locating it according to the govern- ment subdivisions would designate it, in an off-hand manner, by some local name, such as "Kennedy's Ranch," "Big Mike's Place," "Indian Gulch," "Cranberry Swamp," and the like. It was funny, but some how or other, the bureau was not amused.. Messrs. Berg, Wildt, Tupper, Wright and the others, as they contemplate the accumulations of two months' cen- sus taking piled up before them, are wont to say with Christopher Sly: " 'Tis an excellent piece of work; would 'twere done," in which thepublic, anxious to know the results, acquiesce.

Mr. - Berg himself took charge of the branch, leaving the main office in this city, during his absence, to the care of Capt. Wildt. "' AN OUTLINE of how the work was done is inter- esting. About May 20th the real work of the bureau commenced. W. S. Tupper was appointed clerk and Miss Sadie Owre stenographer, and very soon afterward a large office force was added. . Up to June 1 the time was employed in district- ing the state according to the pro- visions of the law and in arranging suitable forms to be used in the taking of the census. The districting of the state was a work of some magnitude in itself. The law provided that the division of dis- tricts should be along -township lines and ward lines, except in unorganized territory. '. This provision of the law Impeded the work somewhat since di- vision along other lines would at times have facilitated it In the large cities in particular was It difficult to observe this provision of the law, and large wards had to be' divided into subdis- tricts, or the census in such districts could not have been taken within the required length of time. This work was finished about the Ist -of June. The preparation of the blanks in- cluded the large schedules to be used 'n enrolling the names and other in- formation required by the law.and also called for blank forms to be used in making reports; forms to be used and sent to the office to-designate instances of this census will be as complete and j accurate as any ever taken in the state I of Minnesota." The taking of the census was not without its peculiar and amusing inci- dents and features, which served to brighten up in a measure an otherwise rather monotonous path of toil. No doubt the enumerators throughout the state could tell many quaint and laughable stories of their experiences in the course of their travels. At the bureau, however, the stories have the enumerator himself for the subject for the most part. The census law makes preference in the appointment of enu- merators in favor of. ex-soldlers -and sailors wnen they are otherwise quali- fied. In th© application blanks inquiry was directed to ascertain the standing of the applicants in this respect, to which one of them, responding affirm-: atively, added the explanation, "a sol- dier in the army of the Lord." As be was found to be qualified in other respects, the crusader received his - commission. .y V>' ,' : ... A POLITICAL SCHEDULE. An enumerator of Dodge county with a statistical turn of mind and an evi- dent interest in politics indicated the political faith of the adult males of i his list by writing "R.," "D.," "Pop.," I "Prohib.-"- in the margin - opposite their I names. Dodge county furnished an- j other who is something of a wag. At j the close of his report he appends the ! followingwords: "This isa hard world ' and few get out of it alive. Rah! for I McKinley." The ambiguity of the j connection between the declarative ; sentence and the exclamation led to ' much speculation in the bureau as to I how bis brother enumerator above THE CEXSUS BUREAU.

'"" COTTAGE CITY, Mass., Aug. 3.— It w as with a good breeze that, the New York Yacht club squadron got under way from the Brenton's reef ' lightship off. Newport this morning, and began that portion of their cruise . which would take : them 'to Cottage City. The big sloops were without one of their yesterday's com- pany, the Jubilee having decided not to race, and appearing on the scene with a working itopsail, while the j others all had club topsails set, as ! well as baby jib topsails. The De- i fender was first away, as usual, with the Vigilant second and Volunteer third. From the press boat it looked as though the Vigilant did not cross until after the handicap gun was fired, and the Volunteer was consid- erably behind her. The Defender made her start in excellent form, go- ing over the line quickly. From that moment the Defender began to walk through the fleet. It did not take more than half an hour for her to run ahead of everything and take up the leading position. The Vigilant went along fast, too, but the new boat, in the wind, outfooted her to a degree that aroused the enthusi- asm of all. The Vigilant caught the breeze, but could not keep up. It was also noticed that the Defender stood up stiffer than the Vigilant. The latter hauled down her baby jib topsail about 12 o'clock. Within a quarter of an hour it was decided to run it up again, and this was done. The Defender all this time was widening the gap between them. The fleet was well headed by the Defender when the new boat passed the Sow and Pigs lightship. The Defender was to all apearances about four and a half minutes ahead of the Vigilant. This being the case, She had gained about two and a half minutes on her rival. Having passed the Sow and Pigs lightship, the fleet steered with the wind now well abaft the beam, on the starboard side, for the destination of the day. The distance covered was thirty- three miles. It is announced that Col. John Jacob Astor has offered a $2,000 cup for the trial races, and the yacht club committee has ac- cepted it. .

DETROIT, Mich., Aug. 3.—Con ! Rinke, of Milwaukee, won the Evening News diamond medal, the position I prize in the fourth annual Hilzendegen j twenty-five-mile road race, on Belle I Isle, today.

Herman, well known for sev- eral years and who will manage Tommy Dixon in his finish fight with George Dixon, the colored champion, at Dallas at the time of the big fight, was born in New York twenty-six years ago. He has managd and trained and handled since then Shadow Maber, Jack McDonough, Tommy Dixon, Dick Moore and Kid McCoy. It was Her- man who brought Dick Moore to the front and managed him through nine straight contests. Among the men Moore defeated were Jackson, Fitz- patrick, George Kessler and Buffalo >_sni_-__ J. H. HERMAN. •loitai ov.jl;- . Costello. Moore went under Benton's management and then was beaten by . Dan Creedon, Jerry Driscoll and Jim Butler. Under Herman's management 7 only, it seems, can Shadow Maber be successful. Herman handled Maber : his contest with Beaver and* La Blanche, the Marine, Since Maber left Herman he has met with several de- feats, the last one being to Young Cor- bett in seven rounds at Baltimore last week. It was also Herman that brought Tommy Dixon to the front. He is managing and training him and had him matched with George Dixon for the featherweight championship, of the world, the contest to take place within three months for a stake of $5,000 and a purse of not less than $6,000, the winner to take all of the purse and stake. The Eastern papers speak very highly of Herman's abil- ity as a manager arid wished; that there were more like him in the busi- ness. \u25a0'-;".'.>'-• '-..zyZy. v ... CORNELL CREW RETIRXS. '; .

The crew gener- ally ; feel that 1 - they [ were not treated any too well on the other side, and express considerable dissatisfaction with what they term the unjust crit- icism of the British press. Capt. Free- born said: "We were; well treated by. x the college representatives and the general public on the other side, but were unmercifully criticised by the newspapers. All sorts of comment was made on our style of rowing and the training of our crew." Thomas Hall, of the crew, said: "It seems to me the climate had a good deal to do wnu our defeat. We should either race Immediately upon arrival or spend six months there before starting in a race. '; ,-.;.\;-y-. NORTH STAR CRICKETERS WIN. Game at Omaha Was Excitingly ZyZ Close.

Sleeplessness anil Fntiffueof Brain ami Body Banished— Re- " stored— Read the Testimo- nial of Mr. S. -V. Harris, Chief Clerk at Ryan. Hotel. ; "What's all this about Dr. Charcot's Kola Nervine Tablets?" is a question so prevalent on railway and street cars, on the streets, in the offices and at the homes of newspaper readers that few have failed to hear it. If you are a sufferer, in greater or lesser degree from NERVOUS DEBILITY NEURALGIA, NERVOUS DYSPEP- SIA, SLEEPLESSNESS, BRAINFAG | UNDUE FATIGUE, MELANCHOLY- j RHEUMATISM (induced by an im- ; paired nervous system) or any of the ! ills which follow and accompany less- j ened vigor, you can answer the open- I ing question for yourself and at so ; small a cost you will not remember | the expenditure after It is made— you j will only re-member what the remedy I has done and is doing for you. The manufacturers of the already I famous Kola Nervine Tablets— | pared upon the prescription of Dr. | Jean Martin Charcot, and improved by the experience of leading specialists at home and abroad— have placed with retail druggists, for a limited time, packages of the remedy, containing five days' supply of Tablets and costing ! but 25 cents. It is not'claimed that ; this amonut will effect a cure— it is | claimed that decided benefit will be j felt and the sufferer put upon the ; road to permanent relief. Professional men of sedentary habits, j overworked clerks or officials, rail- j way men, bicyclists (male or female, amateur or professional), base ball players— sorts and conditions of men who find their nerves at all af- fected or their bodies yielding too readily to fatigue the sleepless, the neuralgic, the dyspeptic can rest assured that if they will try the Kola Nervine Tab- lets they will discover "What all this is about" that has been written con- cerning their virtues. i * 1 MR. S. V. HARRIS, CHIEF CLERK RYAN HOTEL. Above is a portrait of one of the most widely known and highly re- spected gentlemen in the Northwest,. Mr. S. V. Harris, chief clerk of the Ryan, St. Paul's principal hotel. The ! gentleman gives the following unso- i licited testimony: "I commenced taking Dr. Charcot's I Kola Nervine Tablets in a skeptical ! mood. I was not a believer in pro- ! prietary medicines, but I was in such i a nervous condition and so great a j sufferer from sleeplessness that I felt bound to try a mode of relief which had so much testimony in its favor. I took the Tablets but three days be- fore I felt the effects of the remedy felt them with as much surprise as gratitude, though now the gratitude is in the majority. I. sleep as I have not for a long time, and I am reinvig- orated mentally and physically. I rec- ommend the remedy unhesitatingly and earnestly." One month's treatment can be pur- chased for $1.00, and purchasers of the ! $1.00 or the 25 cent packages should alike be sure that Dr. Charcot's name is on each cover. LAST DAY AT OAKLEY.

Clifford asserted his superiority i by winning the Kearney stakes, but) his margin of victory was short. Clif- ford got off last, Rey del Carreres ! being the pacemaker, and so hot was ! the pace that not until the wire was j reached did Clifford show In front, by i a ' head. The steeplechase was full of ; excitement. Three horses refused at' the Liverpool, and Alchemist was I killed! at the last hurdle, which was in ' the stretch, and the horse went down' like a shot, breaking his neck. Jockey ; Veach, who had the mount, was badly , injured, and had to be pulled from under the horse. Summaries: First race, five furlongs—Rapatap, j 109 (E.

Sims Injures His Knee in the Two- -;-: y Mile Handicap. j TOLEDO, 0., Aug. 3.-The weather I today was excellent for the national circuit meet, with the exception of a hard wind that was blowing across the track, making the time slow and the riding difficult. No records were brok- en, and not a ..pill occurred during the meet. In the two-mile handicap, class B, S:ms retired at the end of the first mI l?, with his knee badly hurt by striking against the handle-bar. It will compel him to lay up for a few days. In this race Kiser, of Dayton, was dis- qualified for the meet for a deliberate foul at the head of the stretch, and al- most every race! was protested for foul riding.

There will be another international contest between the athletes of Yale and Oxford or Cambridge if arrangements can be suc- cessfully made, as the one last year in England . and the one to take place this year in this country. The Yale oarsmen are | anxious for a test of strength and skill with the Oxford or Cambridge crew. Things have gone so far that Henri T. Di Sambour, president of the ,Yale navy, has been asked to call a meeting of-the racing authorities to take action. - , ' ~ Ladies' Bicycle Race. H. O. Messier will manage a six nights', three hours nightly, ladles' bi- cycle race at Athletic park, in Minneap- olis, the week of Aug. 19. The race will be for the eighteen-hour world's cham- pionship, open to all comers. . A board . track, fourteen - feet wide, and twelve laps to the mile, with raised ends, and all the new Improvements, will be built for: the occasion, which will assist the - riders to make fast time. The list of entries to date is as follows: Mist Frankie Nelson, of New York; Miss Helen Baldwin, of Chicago; Miss Lottie Stanley of Pittsburg; Miss Jessie Oak- *?.' of ? an Francisco, and Miss May Allen of Liverpool, Eng. The ladies are all in active training, as the man- agement will offer special inducements to have the record broken here. The present record was made in St. Paul the week of July 8 to 12, the present year, by Miss Helen Baldwin, of Chi- cago, who rode 277% miles. NO WIND FOR THE BOATS. Windy City's Yacht Races Almost a Failure. CHICAGO, Aug. 3.-The yacht race | off the lake front today, under the ausipces of the Columbia club, was more of a drifting than a sailing af- fair. There was not wind enough to make the contest interesting. As ft was the Hawthorne won the schooner race by miles; the Phantom "beat the Valiant in class B in a .close race; the Peri won in class C, and the "B" in class D. Tomorrow the boats go to Racine to take part in the races there Wednesday. The wind held out barely long enough to enable the larger por- tion of racers to get back to the finish line. Amateur Oars at mil <<>._. HAMILTON, Ont.,Aug. There was a much better attendance today at the races of the Canadian amateur oars- men.

In the sailboat race for the solid silver "Lawrence" cup, so-called because presented by Mr. Lawrence, a member of the club, seven boats started. The | course was eight miles. Carlos was j the first in, but the race was awarded to the Gracie, as the Carlos had not i turned the upper buoy properly. The : cup was won for two seasons by the Helen.owned by J. R. B.

WORK OF THE CENSUS BUREAUIN COUNTING PEOPLE OF

INCIDENTS OF TIIE COUNT. ': !

' Ii

runny Things Done by Witty and jWitless Members of the Force j

of Enumerators. !Ii

The work of numbering the people 'ln the fourth decennial census of the jstate was completed Wednesday. A :few days more will be required to ]place the final returns in the hands \u25a0

of the census bureau, after which thelong and arduous labor of compila-tion of the results for publication in jcompliance with the census law will Ibe entered on. For the latter pur- |pose Secretary of State Berg, su- '

perintendent of the census, has un-til the first of the year as a limit,but the work will be prosecuted withsuch vigor that the publication willtake place at a much earlier date.Until that time, however, nothing

authentic may be made known ofthe results, as the census law of '95 !provides that no part of the census 'statistics shall be made public until .the same are printed under the pro- [visions of the act. I

The work of taking the census hasbeen a task of considerable magni-

tude and difficulty owing to increasein population, brief time allotted for jdoing the work and somewhat limit- jed resources for its performance, jThe appropriation made for the pur- |pose was $45,000, which willfall short jof the amount necessary, except by '

the exercise of the strictest econ-omy. This, of course, Supt. Berg

has employed throughout and hasbeen obliged to limit the compensa-tion of his employes in order to keep

within bounds. His own compen-sation is, perhaps, as meager asthat of any subordinate when thetime taken is considered. He re-ceives $500 for his services under theprovisions of the census law.

FAITHFUL WORK.In the performance of the work

Mr. Berg had an able colaborer inhis assistant, Capt. Wdldt, and hestates that the employes of the bu-reau generally worked faithfullyand well at the tasks assigned them.Capt. Wildt was in a particularlyhappy frame of mind yesterday atthe prospect of closing up the out-side branch of the work and having

the remainder of the labor under hisimmediate eye and control. "Whenyou come to think of the short timeallowed us," said he in speaking ofthe matter yesterday, "and the re-strictions and limits placed upon usin the way of funds wherewith tocarry out the provisions of the cen-sus law, I believe it will be concededthat the- bureau has done very well."Why, the final results of the UnitedStates census taken in IS9O are butjust now promulgated. Five yearsold, those statistics are, and of riopractical value outside of a historicpoint of view. Conditions today arevastly different to what they werewhen the government census wastaken, yet we are only now learningthe full results. I understand, ofcourse, that the government censusis a much more elaborate affair thanours, but the means of doing thework were practically unlimited,while we had to be very careful andeconomical. A census, to have aproper value, and meet the object

. for which it is taken, should be com-pleted as quickly as may be con-sistent with accuracy. This we havedone so far and will urge on whatremains to be done with every celer-ity consistent with correctness. Therest of the work will be in the officeof the bureau and of a quieter na-ture than the enumeration branch,md Ifeel that we will have a breath-ing spell. It is quite a relief, I as-sure you."

A month ago was found neces-sary, owing to the magnitude of theyork in the Twin Cities, to establishi branch bureau in Minneapolis,vhere the work of checking the re-urns of the state enumerators withhose of the local committee and

where the individual had b.en pre-viously enumerated; special forms to 'indicate the fact when' information had jbeen obtained second-hand; forms to':indicate refusal to give the required in- . iformation, and special forms to be ; iused where renumeration was on the .basis of a per diem. ji

Almost from the date of the passage !and approval of the law, April 22, until , 'the time of appointment of enumer- I 'ators, June 1, applications for the po- J ;

. sition of enumerator began to pour in. jFrom some of the city districts as Jmany as flfty applicants for a single !place were received, and it is fair to ' '

; say that, on an average, there were ,; ten applications for each place, or 10, I| 000 applications for the 1,000 appoint- i; ments which were made. The matter j! of appointments was under the special |; charge of Secretary Berg and Capt. I: Wildt, and the selections were made 1! without regard to politics or political j! aflliation, on the basis of qualification |! only. About June 1 the full force was jjactively at work gathering names, and j; almost immediately reports from this Ji force and schedules filled with names !; began to arrive at the bureau. As fast j' as th? schedules and reports were re- !; ceived they were marked j! WITH A FILE STAMP,(showing their dat? of arrival. After !jbeing inspected as to regularity of !| form they were filed away by counties i• and by district numbers, in the port- jfolios and schedules In which they 'I were qualified.

The correspondence up to this timej had been enormous in volume and re-j quired the constant employment of sev-

eral stenographers to answer lettersj alone. All correspondence, all reports Ij and all schedules were carefully andproperly filed away in their properplaces. By the middle of June some i

few of the smaller districts were com- Ipleted, and from that time until July |31 final returns were being received jfrom all over the field. The average jsize of the enumeration districts in the jcountry would be one or two town-ships ranging from 1,200 to 3.000 people. !In the larger cities the districts would 1

I range from 2,500 to 5,500 people. With IIso many enumerators it would be 'I strange if all were equally competent

or fitted for the work. In some fewcases enumerators resigned or thebureau was compelled to remove themand appoint others. Such cases werevery rare, and on the whole the force jin the field was very efficient indeed. jThe work of checking up and count- Iing names in various enumeration dis- |tricts began in the latter part of June |

j as districts were finallycompleted, and jj is going on at the present time. Some !• changes have been made in the em-

-1 ployes of the census bureau since thej office was first instituted last spring.; The present force of the bureau is asi follows:J Albert Berg, superintendent- orj census; Capt. P. W. Wildt, assistant;j \\. S. Tupper, George F. Wright,I clerks; Miss Sadie Owre, Miss MaryI Gilflllan, Miss May V. McKay, sten-| ographers; Miss Jennie Bixby, Miss.Julia Nichols, Miss Esther Cavallii.,Nick C. O'Connor, clerks.

COMPENSATION SMALL.The schedule of compensation lor the I

enumerators has not been liberal andthe bureau would gladly have increasedthe compensation in many cases had jit been possible to do so under the law.

i As it is it is doubtful if the appropria-j tion will suffice for the compiling andpublishing of the reports. In calculat-ing the expense of the work the legis-

! lature did not- take sufficiently intoj consideration the increase, in. popula-tion and the many inevitable in-

cidental expenses that cannot be fore-j seen and calculated upon in a work ofi such magnitude. .i In dealing with different cities, or

the state and different parts , of thestate the bureau has applied to all thesame rules and granted to all the sametreatment. No special favors havebeen shown to any locality or to anycity, and it is believed that the results

mentioned would have listed him had lhe run across him.

Enumerator No. 9, Polk county, com-plains that he has the worst district jin the state, and nearly lost his horses iand his life fording a mile of one of itshighways. One of the Mower countyappointees, who was anxious to do hisfull duty and have a full count in hisdistrict, wrote to the bureau that sinceenumerating a family the mother hada new baby and he wanted to know ifhe could take. it. The bureau told himhe could if the mother was willingtopart with it. An enumerator of Itascacounty reports "delayed on account ofmosquitos." In the same county an-other traveled 500 miles by canoe, ac-cording to his own statement. In onedistrict in the northern part of thestate eight twins were found and dulylisted. In still another a babe waslisted in advance of its birth. Theenumerator explained that it would beborn in due season, and ought to havea show.

"Disability reports" were amusing,the causes assigned for being unable .to proceed being as variable as imagi-nation could make them. One man-probably the crusader— had to knockoff work long enough to attend campmeeting. "*•'•'/-\u25a0'

The enumerator in northern Casscounty had a hard time with Indiannames. Onnish-kego-quay, Ching-wah-nah-quod, Ped-way-way-gwon-e-be-quay, etc., etc., are samples.

The unorganized counties, gave con-siderable trouble. The enumeratorfrequently omitted the number of hisdistrict in his schedule, and instead oflocating it according to the govern-ment subdivisions would designate it,in an off-hand manner, by some localname, such as "Kennedy's Ranch,""Big Mike's Place," "Indian Gulch,""Cranberry Swamp," and the like. Itwas funny, but some how or other, thebureau was not amused..

Messrs. Berg, Wildt, Tupper, Wrightand the others, as they contemplatethe accumulations of two months' cen-sus taking piled up before them, arewont to say with Christopher Sly:" 'Tis an excellent piece of work;

would 'twere done," in which thepublic,anxious to know the results, acquiesce.

AN OUTLINEof how the work was done is inter-esting. About May 20th the realwork of the bureau commenced.W. S. Tupper was appointed clerkand Miss Sadie Owre stenographer,and very soon afterward a largeoffice force was added. . Up to June1 the time was employed in district-ing the state according to the pro-visions of the law and in arrangingsuitable forms to be used in thetaking of the census.

The districting of the state was awork of some magnitude in itself. Thelaw provided that the division of dis-tricts should be along -township linesand ward lines, except in unorganizedterritory. '. This provision of the lawImpeded the work somewhat since di-vision along other lines would at timeshave facilitated it In the large citiesin particular was It difficult to observethis provision of the law, and largewards had to be' divided into subdis-tricts, or the census in such districtscould not have been taken within therequired length of time. This workwas finished about the Ist -of June.

The preparation of the blanks in-cluded the large schedules to be used'n enrolling the names and other in-formation required by the law.and alsocalled for blank forms to be used inmaking reports; forms to be used andsent to the office to-designate instances

of this census will be as complete andjaccurate as any ever taken in the stateI of Minnesota."

The taking of the census was notwithout its peculiar and amusing inci-dents and features, which served tobrighten up in a measure an otherwiserather monotonous path of toil. Nodoubt the enumerators throughout thestate could tell many quaint andlaughable stories of their experiencesin the course of their travels. At thebureau, however, the stories have theenumerator himself for the subject forthe most part. The census law makespreference in the appointment of enu-merators in favor of. ex-soldlers -andsailors wnen they are otherwise quali-fied. In th© application blanks inquirywas directed to ascertain the standingof the applicants in this respect, towhich one of them, responding affirm-:atively, added the explanation, "a sol-dier in the army of the Lord." Asbe was found to be qualified in otherrespects, the crusader received his -commission. .y V>' ,' : ...

It w as with a good breeze that, theNew York Yacht club squadron got

under way from the Brenton's reef '

lightship off. Newport this morning,and began that portion of theircruise . which would take : them 'toCottage City. The big sloops werewithout one of their yesterday's com-pany, the Jubilee having decided notto race, and appearing on the scenewith a working itopsail, while the jothers all had club topsails set, as !well as baby jib topsails. The De- ifender was first away, as usual, withthe Vigilant second and Volunteerthird. From the press boat it lookedas though the Vigilant did not crossuntil after the handicap gun wasfired, and the Volunteer was consid-erably behind her. The Defendermade her start in excellent form, go-ing over the line quickly. From thatmoment the Defender began to walkthrough the fleet. It did not takemore than half an hour for her torun ahead of everything and takeup the leading position. The Vigilantwent along fast, too, but the newboat, in the wind, outfooted her toa degree that aroused the enthusi-asm of all. The Vigilant caught thebreeze, but could not keep up. Itwas also noticed that the Defenderstood up stiffer than the Vigilant.The latter hauled down her babyjib topsail about 12 o'clock. Withina quarter of an hour it was decidedto run it up again, and this wasdone. The Defender all this time waswidening the gap between them.

The fleet was well headed by theDefender when the new boat passedthe Sow and Pigs lightship. TheDefender was to all apearancesabout four and a half minutes aheadof the Vigilant. This being the case,She had gained about two and a halfminutes on her rival. Having passedthe Sow and Pigs lightship, the fleetsteered with the wind now wellabaft the beam, on the starboardside, for the destination of the day.The distance covered was thirty-

three miles. It is announced thatCol. John Jacob Astor has offered a$2,000 cup for the trial races, andthe yacht club committee has ac-cepted it. .

; "What's all this about Dr. Charcot'sKola Nervine Tablets?" is a questionso prevalent on railway and streetcars, on the streets, in the offices andat the homes of newspaper readersthat few have failed to hear it. Ifyou are a sufferer, in greater or lesserdegree from NERVOUS DEBILITYNEURALGIA, NERVOUS DYSPEP-SIA, SLEEPLESSNESS, BRAINFAG| UNDUE FATIGUE, MELANCHOLY-

j RHEUMATISM (induced by an im-; paired nervous system) or any of the! ills which follow and accompany less-j ened vigor, you can answer the open-I ing question for yourself and at so; small a cost you will not remember| the expenditure after It is made— youj will only re-member what the remedy

I has done and is doing for you.The manufacturers of the already

the experience of leading specialistsat home and abroad— have placed withretail druggists, for a limited time,packages of the remedy, containing fivedays' supply of Tablets and costing

! but 25 cents. It is not'claimed that; this amonut will effect a cure—it is| claimed that decided benefit will bej felt and the sufferer put upon the

Above is a portrait of one of themost widely known and highly re-spected gentlemen in the Northwest,.Mr. S. V. Harris, chief clerk of the

• Ryan, St. Paul's principal hotel. The! gentleman gives the following unso-i licited testimony:

"I commenced taking Dr. Charcot'sI Kola Nervine Tablets in a skeptical

! mood. I was not a believer in pro-! prietary medicines, but I was in suchi a nervous condition and so great aj sufferer from sleeplessness that I feltbound to try a mode of relief whichhad so much testimony in its favor.I took the Tablets but three days be-fore I felt the effects of the remedyfelt them with as much surprise asgratitude, though now the gratitude isin the majority. I. sleep as I havenot for a long time, and I am reinvig-

orated mentally and physically. I rec-ommend the remedy unhesitatingly andearnestly."

One month's treatment can be pur-• chased for $1.00, and purchasers of the! $1.00 or the 25 cent packages shouldalike be sure that Dr. Charcot's nameis on each cover.
