"How many is a baby, or how many babivs will it take to count for a grown up?'' repeated the youthful statistician awaiting Instructions. "One baby U one, one, a unit In the body politic," explained Miss MacMinian, sternly. "Cnderstand, one Is one, every time." The boy looked troubled yet. "Well, then, list them according to lung power," replied the young woman in des pair. "If a baby can yell like two men lu the grandstand with three on bases, then put hint down for one. Here two equals one, see?" The young hopefuls who. are gathering the figures on Omaha's population for the Commercial club have an instinct for de tails.

RAILS ENTER ELMWOOD PARK Park Board tym it Trlra to Supply Sufficient Drinking t'upa for All. .. . , - - I The Park board and the street railway company have not . been able to get to gether Just in the way the Park board desired on the matter of building a "Y" Into mm wood park, but the work will proceed Just the same, th- hoard I hopeful that cars will run to tho park be fore the season la far advanced. The dif ference of opinion arose over just where the "Y" should be placed, and the street railway company appears to have tarried its point by refusing to meet the vie.vs of the board. Asked if there Is any provision in law that would compel the street railway com pany to provide seats at the end of Its lines for the convenience of waiting pjt rons, President Bertyinan said he does not know of any such requirement. At the end of the line running to Hlvervlew park, for Inance, there is nothing in the way of scats provided for those waiting for ctrs. The street railway takes the position that such seats could not be maintained for any length of time against vandalism, and if they attempted to provide the sau they would have to be renewed continually. At the drinking fountains in the parka the board endeavors to provide sufficient cups for every ordinary demand, but f'nds that, even when the cups are attached by chains, people yank them off and carry them away or destroy them. "We reivw she cups time after time," aaid President lli:. ryman, "but we find there is no wiy to atop vicious people from snapping them off and destroying them or taking them awny." ROOSTER'S VICTIM CONVICTED Klmer Ml miner. Whom Chanticleer Led Police to Uet, Fined In Police Court. Although the redoubtable rooster which ltd to the arrest of the suspects was not present at the trial, sufficient evidence, to the mind of Judge Crawford, was at hand Wednesday morning, for the conviction of Klmer Wimnicr of chicken stealing. The two other defendants charged with com plicity In the taking off of the fowls, were released. U was developed that forty-two chick ens from the roosts of two citizens, had been discovered strangly In carcerated in the roost at the Wimmer home, 414 Hickory street. The rooster, rightful head and guardian of one section of the chickens, had led the officers to the new home of his charges. Mrs. Wimmer admitted that the chickens were recent additions to her hennery, and, aa far aa she knew, didn't belong there. She said Elmer Wimmer, a boarder, had brought the new chickens In.

In this scheme he was associated with Zelaya of Nicaragua and Gutlerrex of Salvador. The main feature of the union was a con gress, which held Its meetings In Managua. Spain even went so far as to recognize the existence of the Kepubllca Mayor, and to accredit a minister to It. But within the year Regalado started a revolution In Salvador against Gutierrez, which diverted Salvador from the union, and it promptly the withdrawal of the Nicaraugan forces from Honduran aoil. Bonilla, after many adventures made his way to Mexico. Then we went to Bellie, where he now makea his home. His deposi tion left the presidential chair vacant.
