Pretence of Mind. A startling Incident Is related of an officer In the Twelfth hussar regiment who was riding with the troops in the neighborhood of the garrison of Meree burg when suddenly his horse, a high mettled charger, took fright and bolt ed. His efforts to restrain the animal were fruitless. Giving the horse the rein, the officer waited fur a chance to spring from the saddle. To his dis may, the animal suddenly swerved to ward a piece of level ground which ended In a cliff overhanging the shore. In a few moments both horse and rider would be over the edge. But e bright flash was seen for a moment, and the saber of the officer fell with deadly effect upon the head of his teed. Just In time the officer leaped from the saddle and escaped. What Lucy Knew.

In 1900 the cost was Jl.'.'i.T.IUM. TUi 1010 cost was about 37Vj (Vr cent ninrr than In WOO. The original estimate of $M.117.0 as tbe total cost of tbe decennial cen us. Including the other work of tlx bureau during the ceusus period, tin director now believe too low. and hf thinks. In view of tbe additional work required by congrv-w und for othc reasons. It will reach fully $14,500,000 Delayed Legislation Is Deplored. Tbe director urges that If new leg (station is required for Liking the ecu sus of 1C0 it should be passed muil earlier than was dune for the present census. Were It not for the fact thai the bureau Is uow a permanent orgaul tatlon It would have beeu practically Impossible in tbe nine months whiel elapsed from the passage of the cee sus act to tbe date of the 1910 euu meration to arrauge properly for th. taking of tbe census. Tbe three pre ceding censuses had preparatory k Hods fifteen mouths long. Tbe census act authorized not to exceed 330 supervisors. The uumber actually appointed was 320 In conti nental United States and one In Porto Rico. They were residents of the dis tricts from which appointed.' Tbe number of enumeration dis tricts finally established in contlnent&l United States was 00.025. The dis trlcts had on an average, therefore, about 1.300 Inhabitants. The average population er district In cities of over 5,000 Inhabitants was about 1.4S5 and in smaller towns and rural districts bout 14i . In general there was oue enumerator for each enumeration district, but in a considerable number of districts in the south a white enumerator was ap pointed to canvass tbe white popula tion sad a colored enumerator to can rass the negro population, so that the total number of enumerators employ ed in continental United States was bout 71.100. Amount Paid Enumerators. The total payment to enumerators In continental United States as com pensation for their services and travel ing expenses aggregated about $4,870. 000. The corresponding expenditure at the census of 1000 was about $3. 640,000. The Increase was thus 37 per cent as compared with an Increase in the population of 21 percent. While a considerable part of the cost of enumeration, estimated at about one-third. Is attributable to the agricultural statistics, nevertheless a broadly significant comparison may be made by dividing tbe cost of tbe eno meration at each ceusus by tbe num ber of Inhabitants. This division shows tbe compensation of tbe enu merators as equal to 4.7 cents per capita in 1000 and 5.3 cents in 1910. an increase of about 13 per cent. In discussing the field work of tb census of manufactures, mines and quarries the director states that It was practically completed last fall and thut the aggregate cost was about $751,000. The average per establishment, there being 371.444 of these, including slaughter bouses, was $2.02, substan tially the same as in the census of 1905. Tbe office force of tbe bureau was on Aug. 31 last at its ronxlmnin point, there being 3.738 arsons on tbe pay rolls. Tbe largest number of emer gency appointees on the roll at any one Haas 2s 312. last July. AH such were dropped In December last OREGON HAS QUEER ROCK. Balances to a Nicety Despite Lack of Proportion. One of the most remarkable rock in the world Is that known a tbe bal ancing rock, which stands on the bank of the Willamette river a short distance above the city of Portland, Ore. Rising from a broad base Is a small column, roughly round In shape. Just above this is a huge mass of rock, bearing a tree on tbe summit, the to tal height of rock and column being bout 100 feet Although great deal larger and heavier than the pillar on which it stands, the big rock is very accurate ly balanced. The entire rook Is of a volcanic na ture, and tbe most singular thing about It is the fact that the knob and pillar are entirely disjointed from one another. Quicksilver Production Decrease.

K'll. I am the wife of a United Simon nr my officer and have lived a good" deal of my time on the 1'iu'lile h1oh where the only servants to be had are Chi nese. There Is no doubt but the Chi nese make very good servants If they wish to bo good, but If they prefer to bo bud they can excel 7iT ihat too. I married In the Infantry and went out with uiy husband to a station where the Chinese weie as thick n.i blacklvrrles. I had the pride natural to a bride of showing how well I could keep house and appreciated the importance of winning the confidence of my servants, or, rather, at that time my servant, for the wife of a second lieutenant-neither she nor her husband bavins anything but his pay Is not supposed to keep more than one. My first Chinese servant was Tl Wang. Tl was the smoothest, softut tongued rascal I ever met. He had enough duplicity In him for an clht ecnth ceutury European diplomat. To him words were indeed Intended to conceal Ideas. "You telly young wife," he said to me. "You want Telly good Chlnnnmn for cook. Muchy Chinamen Telly Kid. Tl feel aolly for Melican lady. Tl he good cook." All this was spoken with a look of commiseration for a young thing like myself that to one familiar with the man from the Flowery Kingdom would haTe boded uo good. I did not doubt that my servant would be n (Teat comfort to me. It was not long be fore his true Inwardness showed It self. He first made an excuse of hav ing a elek brother who couldn't washy washv to nrovlde for to wheedle me out of a month's wages In advance. Then he surreptitiously removed un der his capacious coat and ample sleeves all the staple kitchen provi sions I had bought to last several months. Tea. coffee, sug:;r and spices disappeared like magic. Then, having received ait offer of better wages than I was giving him, he took himself off without so much as saying he was going. My next servant was Charlie I.l. Vhv so manv Chinese are called Char lie I don't know, though I.l is an ap propriate name fur them. Charlie was recommended by the major's wife, who had him In her kitchen for while when her regular servant was 111. She told me. she would rather have Charlie than the other. I had no fault to find with Charlie except that he stayed with me imt a day. He didn't stay long enough to ask for any wages, and since experience had taught me not to pay Chinamen In ad vance he didn't get any. After this servants were passing through my kitchen, none staying with me more than a week. In vain I re fused to engage one unless he would agree to stay a month. Something must be scaring them away. I didn't see how thev could see anything in a young woman of nineteen to frighten them, and I was the only person with whom they came in contact. One of them, who was about to depart after three days of service, I asked why he left "Tou get Melican cook. Chinaman not velly good in this house." "Why notr "Donno. ' Chinaman won't rtay here." , "Why do yon go so soon after com ing?" "I am velly well" He did not seem to care whether I believed him or not. Indeed, he knew be was lying, and I knew It too. How ever, I had had such bad luck with Chinese servants and there were no others to be had-that I made up my mind to do my own cooking for awhile. Meanwhile my husband, who had been making Inquiries for me as to servants from brother officers' wives, began to be considerably vexed that 1 could not keep any of them. There was no such loss of servants nmong those who sent me mine, and It ap peared that I must either be too ex acting or have a frightful temper or some other blemish that prevented a servant from working for me. where as the truth was that after the earlier ones left I simply gave up everything to those who came later, granting all requests and opposing them in noth ing. I didn't even dare criticise the cooking of a single dish. The first tlfT I had with my husband was when he ventured to remark that perhaps I didn't gl7e them quite free rein enough. I resented the imputation with a fervor that sent him off to the officers' club land prevented his ever making any such suggestion In future. One day I put the tin bread box out in the sun, turning it up on its side and exposing tbe bottom. I was sur prised to see Chinese characters on it. 1 wondered what they meant. When a woman begins to wonder what Is the meaning of anything it Is preparatory to making plans to find out. I called the servant of my next door neighbor, who was beating a rug, to come over and translate the characters, ne did so as follows: "This Is a very bad woman. Bhe doesn't pay the servants' wages and gives no extras." That smooth tongued villain Tl Wang, who had pitied my youth and inexperience and had robbed me be side, bad chalked a notice on the bread box warning all other servants against me. I waited patiently till my husband came In from his duties and, showing him the characters on t!io bot tom of tbe box, handed him transit, turn WILL FIGHT BEETLES.

SHARPS PREDICT BANNER YEAR Baseball Mei Think Coming Sea son Will Be Greatest Ever, INCREASED INTEREST IN TEAMS With Magnates at Peace, Fletcher Idea Dead Issue and Few Holdouts, the Fans Have Chance to Devote Ali Their Intereit to Players Alone. According to those In the know, the baseball season of it'll Is going to be the most successful, financially ainl otherwise, ever known ou the circuits of the major leagues and of the real Class A orgnuli.atioiis-tbe Kasternaud American nssoclutlcns. Never has there been such a pleas ant off season or one In which there were so few rows among the magnates ("Last iing many person Interested in baseball were tired out by the time the campaign opened from having to wade through .the art Idea primed In the off season, wherein one magnate accused the other of being a crook and of being more at home In Jal' than at large. Talk like this wasn't good for baseball, and fortunately the mud sllngers have realised this patent fact and stopivd barking at one an other. Most of the news thaf has been printed during the winter was legltl mate, and there was little cause for Ihe energetic scribe to have to do any pature faking. The fans now are Interested In base ball a i they never before were, due to tbe 'let that their Interest has Im-cii kept alive all winter by the chron icling of the past exploits of the new comers and by the relighting of bril liant bait lea of days of yore. There was no scrap ntotit the rcehvtlon of Thomas Joseph Lynch to the presiden cy of the National league, the big organizations drafted and adopted their schedules without any ineinlwrs of the Joint commit tee getting weved at one another, and K1 Harrow step ped Into the preildeney of the l'.nslern leaguo without a riot call lielng serf io the police. rinvers, fans and scril.es alike took the Fletcher movement as a Joke, mid the third rail league passed awaj before It got Into the Infancy stage One good thing the Toledo promoter did for the gallant athletes was to how the magnates the foolishness of their former methods In waiting until Feb. 1 or March 1 before send Ing out the contracts to their play ers and the wisdom of signing their tars to long term agreements, Fletch er aided the magnates, too. for as n result of the failure of his plan the athletes learned the capitalists were not going to risk their filthy lucre In financing a third league and lenrned. too. how much It cost to run a ball team. The tlmera no longer look on their employers ns persons who coin bnrrels of money without having to assume any risks. Tbe holdout league had fewer mem bers during the off season of 1010 11 than for many years, Garland Jacob Stahl carried out his threat to retire, but It wasn't because the terms offered him by John Irving Taylor were not satisfactory, but lie cause he thought it was wise for him to lead the simple life of n banker rather than the turbulent life of a ball player. It Is a cinch thnt the "American league will le run this year In the same smooth style It always has !een, and conditions point to the National league campaign of 1011 -being less turbulent than the races of previous years. Iu the executive chair of the parent organization Is a man In whom the eight club owners have confidence, though they all do not love him with cn enduring affection. -Lynch, how ever, has the men who do not like him scared, and those troublesome twins C. Webb Murphy and Horace Fogel, will think twice before they attempt to start anything. The Eastern league ought to do bet ter this season under Edward P,ar row than It did when Its chief execu tive was the Marathon king. Barrow Is giving the big minor organization of this section of the baseball world his undivided attention, which Is something that Its former president did not do and really could not be ex pected to do. Powers could make much more money on outside enterprises ! than by devoting all bis energies to the developing of the Eastern league and cannot I? blamed for only giving the club magnates $j,000 worth of serv ice. The new president Is a hustler, a hard worker and has the happy fac ulty of inuklug friends and retaining them. He has shown already that he has good Ideas alsint bow a league should be run, nnd it is only a ques tion of time when aH his employers will realize thet his Idea are based on sound logic. Barrow believes that in order for a league to succeed it should be a ca of the league first and the clubs after ward. That Is tbe idea Tom Lynch has and the idea on which the suc cess of the American league was based. Everything Is running along monthly In the American association nnd-r President Tom Chlvlngton.
