A ft pioneer In tho field, tho United States KeoloKlcal survoy hns mado a careful topoBrnphleal survey of tho Cra ter I-ako national park.

Tho surfaco of Crater JmUo Is 8177 fcut ahoya sea lovel; the lako Is nearly six miles In diameter nnd Is Hurrounded by n rim of ragged rock rising from 10Q0 to 2000 foot above it. The lako Is In many placcH neatly 2000 feot deep and Us surfaco Is broken only by Wizard Island, tho result of thu final gasp of tho dying volcanic forces. Wizard Island, a cinder cono which rises nearly 1000 feot abovo the lake, Ih Itself a yoiuie nnd perfect volcnno, hav ing a little crator of Its own. Huvornl other dmnller cones wero pushed upward, hut nono nppv-ar above tho water's sur faco.

Tho assertion by a number of naval officers' who have carefully studied tho subject that the real reusou why It hi becoming almost Impossible to keep men In the navy is dun to modern conditions Iihh nroused tho naval chiefs, and there Ih much talk of a general Investigation of the subject being ordered. Heretofore, ut least one-third of tlio men who enlisted in tho navnl service wero willing to re main there ami muko It their lifo work. During the last three years, however, tho number has been steadily falling off until today only a small percentage of first enlistment men are willing to take on again. This means thnt there' Ih it lack of epcrlenccd men on tho big ships nild unless the conditions ure rem edied the peisnnnol of tho servlco Is cer tain to suffer, One of tho officers now on duty at tho Brooklyn navy yard, u veteran (if muny years' experience, says tho real reason Is the lestrlctlon of tho mnn's liberty On the old worships It was the rule thatt heio was to be no moro Hun day work than wiih necessary. Tho men wero permitted u day to write letters home, lounge about the ship, und gen erally rest up for the coming week. Un der modern conditions ull this Is changed. The men are worked hurd and, It Is charged, unnecessarily not only through tlio week but also nn Sunday and there Is little to distinguish ono day rrom another In tho service. Tho Inov itublo result, according to the officers at tho yard is thut men who have served their enlistment nro louth lo continue In the service. Tho high pressure under which tho men ure compelled to work from early in January until late In October Is nlso said to be responsible for Increasing de sertions.

The First Cemut Wae Taken by Moiea In the Wilderness. There Is n record of n census In China as far back as tho year 20-12 II. a and of one In Japan In tho Inst century before Christ Under tho con stitution of Solon the citizens of Ath ens woro divided and registered In four classes, according to the amount of their tnsnblo property or Income. The Itotrinn census was burdened with more statistics than any of these, how ever it had ItH origin under Servlus I'ulllus, sixth king ut Home, and was an affair or much solemnity. Kvcry citizen had to appear upon the Campus Martlus and declare upon oath his mime and dwelling and the vnluc of his property under the penalty of hav ing his goods condscnted. The most ancient statistical record of n census Is found In the Hlble. Tho census was tnken by .Moses In the wilderness, and, as shown by the first chapter of Numbers, the enumeration must have been very simple. "Take ye," snys UiIh account, "the sum of all the congregations of the children of Israel, after their families, by the hmiso of their fntlfers, with the num ber of their names. eveTy male by their pells: from twenty years old nnd upward, all that are able to go forth -to war In Israel; thou and Anron shall number them by their armies." This census wns nn alfalr that must have been soon over, lasting no longer thnn one day, being merely a counting of the heads or the lighting men. The women nnd children nnd cripples nnd the old men wero not Included: "nei ther were tho l.evltes numbered among them," Those who did stand up to bo numbered totaled 003,1550. Now York World.
