Seventy Thousand Enumerators Will Be Turned Loose on People of Unit, ed States Next Friday Cost of Work Will Be $5,500,000 Scope of In. qulry. Washington, April 11. With tho break of day on next Friday, a host of 70,000 Interrogators, men and women, white and colored, will be turned loose In pursuit of the people of the United States. On that day Uncle Sam will begin numbering his children In preparation for the thirteenth census. He estimates that he has a family of about 90,000,000 men, women' and chil dren, and he already has employed and will then put to work a body of enumerators considerably greater than the standing army. The law provides that the enumer tlon shall begin on the 15th, but It is not so peremptory about the com mencing time as about the closing time, and already intimations have been received that in some Instances tho work may be postponed'untll Sat urday. This Js due to the fact thnt the 15th falls on Friday, and CTnmg tho 70,000 name takers there are some who are superstitious as to this day of the week. The enune:-tio:i will cover all of the forty-flve states and two terri tories of the Union proper, and' also Hawaii and Porto Rico. Alaska, the Philippine islands and Guam will not be included, as especial arrangements nre made for numbering the people of thoso dependencies. Under the statutes governing the work the entire enumeration must be completed within a month, and in the cities the work Is limited to fifteen days. It is expected that some of tho returns' from the cities will be re ceived as early as the first week In June, but the exact population of the entire country wjll not be determined "before sometime In September. The mere getting ofthe information will cost the government the pretty sum of $5,500,000. PREACHER SHOT DOWN Slain by Listener After Voicing Will ingness to Die. Pittsburg, April 11. A sermon on "Martyrdom," in which Frank Skala, an editor and prominent mission worker, had declared himself willing to lay down his life for the Christian cause, was followed by his as sassination In a highly sensational manner and the shooting down also of a fellow church leader, John Gay. Arm In arm the two missionaries were leaving tho little Congregational church In Wood's Run, a suburb, at the head of more than 100 foreigners. A raggedly dressed man poked his way through the crowd, and when he was but a step behind the leaders he pressed a revolver to Skala's head and fired twice. The bullets took effect in the jaw and temple and in the midst of his followers Skala fell dead. Gay, who threw up his right hand as If to ward off the weapon, was struck first in the thumb, and then a second bullet was buried in his head. He fell unconscious across the lifeless body of his colleague. The madman was Jan Radowltch, a charncter known to most of the mis sion for his shiftless habits and radi cal opinions.
