tha' twelfth ooDsu, Jjave Juet been cora
pllod ehd published by the general govern
ment. They are overwhelming In their di
mensions. . A. hugs book, of more than 840
pages, is -crowded down to tiny margin
wltn the thousands upon thousands of Ilg
ures, and yet ths director of the census
apologetically states in bis Introduction
to this ponderous tome that the fact that
ths act enabling the census to be Ukeu
was passed, so short a Urns before the
month st for ths event (June. WOO) caused
the results he presents to be Inadequate
and Incomplete,' Such a stats of affairs
would not 1 be apparent to the luyman.
Once b has settled ths jnau ana scors of
the book within his mental capacities, it
must seem ' to 1dm wonderfully sweeping
and complete. ' - '
It has been th alia of those busy Inter
rogation, points,' the census takers, to as
certain tha occupation of every person In
tlia United States ot more than 10 years
of age. They were warned by the director
of ths census to be complete In ascertain
ing this branch of their results. Persons
working In a brewery, for, tnstanoe, were
not necessarily to be claused as brewers.
Th men whs work In the brewery cooper-
sges, to cite a lucid Instance, were to be
ealliid cooners and not brewers. . Similar
distinctions were mode In the ease of farm
ing industries. Any'persoi working on a
farm for wagi: alone, even though that
person be the farmer's son himself,, was
to be classed sa a furm laborer. It takes
a working; Internet In tho urm to be
classed o a farmer. In such careful and
definite ways e this have the occupation
statistics of the twelfth ceiuius been com
plied. It would seem that, any .apologies
ou the part of ths director were extrane
ous. Tha book start boldly by presenting a
national ' table of " clasullled occupations.
From It ws learn that the United States

strength stands ths manufacturing and

persons actively engaged In these wonder
fully .Varied occupations and classifications,
so extensive In all their ramifications that
a mere Hat of these would enumerate mora
than '160 forms of skilled and ordinary ar
tisanship, ranging through all the different
forms of manufactures.
Domestic and personal service comes
next, 8,633.778 persons being enrolled a

bolrea. In addition to these, under this
classification, ra gathered the soldiers,

to trade and transportation, which gath

Once having divided his ,J87,070 work

ART 0? TRAINING GUN POINTERS
rnngbt to Shoot Aecnsately When the
Target as Well ns the Ship Is
( Moving.
When China found itself arrayed against
Japan It .offered $500 cash a month for
(killed gun pointers, but In all great navies
gun pointers sre trained, not bought, and
when the fight Is en It is too lats for
Instruction. - . 1
How does a man become an expert gun
ner? Diligent -drill and constant training
are not enough with a-certain amount of
natural aptitude. One man after another
Is tried. A few days' drill In the- turrets
eliminates all except, the fairly promising.
For the talent of ey and . nerve which,
makes tha born gun pointer the govern
ment pays from 82 to $10 a month in addi
tion to the regular pay. This premium is
not confined 'o any race, creed or color.
On one vessel, In the navy one of the gun
pointers Is a negro.
Selecting gun pointers Is one of the most
Important duties In the navy. Having se
lected the men for gun -pointers. . The next
step Is to train them. Two methods are
now In vogue, both having ths same prin
ciple, but differing In detail. In the old
days of sails and smooth-bore guns the
invariable rule and the only rule the gun
captains knew was this: "Fire at trie top
of the downward roll (Just as the ship
begins to roll toward the target), and aim
at the enemy's, water line."
This rule lasted far Into the age of steam
and turret guns and has only recently
been supplanted by "continuous aim fir
ing," or the art of keeping a gun trained
on the target, regardless of the oscillation
of the vessel, during the whole or a por
tion of the roll.
The method of training men by the new
system by the use of a "dotter" was de
Vised by Captain Percy Scott ot the British
navy. The dotter, Is a mechanical devlo
which ' causes a small target to move
across the face of a-gun, with a combined
vertical and horizontal motion.- The gun
pointed must make the gun follow the
target, and whenever the sights are on the
bull's-eye he presses a button. This causes
a pencil to dot the target That is his
shot The other method of Instruction is
with the Morris tube, which consists of a
small gallery rifle fitted on the gun, to take
the place of the dotter' pencil.
60 proficient have the bluejacket be
come In handling the turret gun that In
actual target practice on board the Ala
bama a thlrteen-lnch gun' 1 loaded and
fired In thirty-eight seconds. Two kind
of target practice are employed now In all
navies, one in which the target Is sta
tionary and the ship" moving; the other in
which both ship and target are moving.

consecutive times and burned to. the

was a small granary. Then a good barn
was put In Its place. Three years later the
barn was struck by lightning and burned to

BILL BUTTINSKI HAS A LOAD
William Goat Walking; About with
Sticks ot DynnmHe In His
Interior.
In this age uses are to be found for many
things which were formerly regarded a
valueless or even a bother. It I not so
long elnce vcottonseed, from which 1 now
extracted pur Imported olive oil, wa A
source of expense In having to be hauled
away, like the sawdust of the sawmills.
Surely there are belter uses for the goat of
Antonio Pasquale, at Washington, than to
poison him, he having swallowed two con
siderable sticks of dynamite. It Is through
fear of his Indiscriminate or untimely
butting and consequent explosion that the
neighbors are trying to persuade Antonio
to mix strychnia with hi food. Naturally,
these neighbor are imprisoned In their
homes, the' goat, with an apparent sense
of hi own Importance, parading up and
down tho street with a wicked leer snd an
Invitation to the dogs to come within
butting reach. This, though, Is not the
worst of It. There Is no guessing Just
where It may occur to him to explode, and
he Is so heavily loaded that even the walls
of the tenements within the distance of a
square would not be a protection to tho
nervous inmates.
Ths momentary selMnterent of the neigh
bors should not be allowed to determine
the use of this goat. It would servs their
purpose quite as well should he be gently
removed. Already the owner of a fruit
farm in the Wilmington suburbs has mod
an offer for the animated torpedo. His
scheme Is to advertise the presence of the
goat In his orchards In order to stop tho
raids of ths unscrupulous fruit-hungry.
The offer has not been accepted only be
cause It Is stipulated that Antonio shall
deliver the goat at the farm In good order.
This proposed devotion of so valuable an
animal to strictly private uses Is not In
harmony with the tendency toward so
much socialism a would reserve to the
publlo service whatever Is well adapted (o
it. Could the goat be kept In a padded ken
nel he might be Invaluable In times of
riot, when It Is usual to employ he
militia. To disperse a mob nothing could
be more effective than to announce the
turning loose In Its midst of Antonio Paa
quale's notorious goat. At any rate," he Is
too valuable to the country to be bsstty
poisoned. Philadelphia Record.

wife of a prominent business man of this
city, were strolling along the beach when
their attention was attracted by a great
disturbance in the lake.

WHICH DOCTOR WON OUT?
A Boston incident Shows How . and
' Why Doctors Sometime
Disagree.
"Speaking ot quacks," said the young
Boston doctor to his New York cousin,
"I'll tell you a story about one of the
Back Boy' cleverest. A woman went to
him and he persuaded her that she had
caucer of the liver, and that he could cure
her, although, as most peopio -now, can
cer Is incurable.. So the quack took the
woman In hand and soon had her feeling
much like her usual self.
"A short time afterwards the woman had
anothe attack, and this time went to the
hospital. The doctors heard her story and,
after a, brief examination, said to her: -
" 'Madam, your liver I perfectly normal.
All that la the matter with you la that '
you have a weak heart and these attacks
are caused by heart failure. You get over
them In 'a short time and then yeu go on
brings one on again.'
"She was given the proper treatment and
recovered her usual health. But when ah
was taken by a third attack she backslid -.
and went to the plausible quack, ' who
again pretended to cure her of cancer ot ,
the liver. When, on the fourth attack,
she visited the hospital again, the doctors
forgot the unwritten rules ot the profes
sion and1 accused the quack of deceiving
the woman. The quack replied very
suavely that he knew what he was about
Next day the Woman died. The doctor
obtained permission to hold an autopsy, ,
and, in the heat of the moment. Invited, ,
the quack to be present. Nothing daunted
he came. The woman's liver proved to be ,
perfectly sound, and there were the Unrnia-,.
takable Indication of a failure of the
heart. 1
" 'You see, I trust,' said the directing
physician, looking up triumphantly at the
quack. ... . , 1 .
" 'Yes,' suld the quack, 'if you had done
s well by this woman's heart a I have',
by her liver, she probably never would
have died.' "New York Post.
