READYFQRGENSUS
Uncle Sam Thinks Kb Has Fam
ily of Nlnely Million People,
ONLY MONTH FOR THE WORK.
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.
