CUBAN CENSUS REPORTED.
iHteresUlatx Her-ww Recently Pub
lished by United States HuressB.
It Is doubtful whether so complete
a census was ever taken In Cuba as
tbat which constituted the first official
net of this government. The Ameri
can ling had no sooner been raised over
Havana than preparation for the tak
ing of the census began. In the reor
ganization of the government upon a
practical working basis this was con
sidered a most necessary beginning.
The United States otUccrs had but a
perfunctory report of the conditions of
Cuba and Its people, whose needs wero
but Indirectly understood.' No one
knew the numbers or social conditions
of the people for whom tho now gov
ernment was to be formed, and without
these facts tho Intelligent conduct of
tho work could not be executed.
One of the iirst acts which Impressed
the Cubans with the sincerity of this
country's promises was tho appoint
ment of Cubans for tills first work to
be undertaken. It was n natural and
correct supposition that the Cubans
could conduct the census taking with
CENSUS EMUMKHATOKS OF HAVANA.
better success than could foreigners.
Tho Cuban census taker could explain
tho purpose of his work to tho people,
and, moreover, he could explain tho
purpose and promises of tho new gov
ernment, which was most advisable.
There was need that the doubt and dis
content which prevailed among tho
more Ignorant 'Cubans In tho prcscuco
of the United Stntes army should bo
dispelled. Tho appearance of tho
census enumerator among them awak
ened in them n trust in the new govern
ment, particularly since tho enumera
tor had been chosen from among them
selves.
ltegun In the early part of September,
the actual work of the census taking
was completed Dec. Ill and the enumer
ators discharged with the close ot tho
year. The supervisors, together, with
their records, were taken to Washing
ton, where they worked until tho fol
lowing April, overseeing the compila
tion of reports In the United States
census bureau. When they were re
turned to their own country In the
late spring they wero highly compli
mented by tho directors of census upon
their efficient and faithful service. )
The government report on the cen
sus of Cuba for 1800 occupies a bulky
volttmo which will prove most enter
taining reading for anyone inter
ested in tho llttlo Island of which
It treats. There are reports from ev
ery one of tho home Industries, of tho
agricultural development and possibili
ties of the country and of course of
the social, educational and moral stand
ing of the people. The chapter devoted
to citizenship Is interesting as giving n
correct statement concerning tho rela
tion or roreign to niiiivo imputation or
tho Island. Tho report reads;
'Of tho population of Cuba, 89 per

per cent In Spain uud only S per ceat
In other countries. Those born Id
Cuba of course Included not only na
tive whites, but negroes and mixed
bloods. The proportion was greatest
In Santiago, where It reached 05 pet
cent, and was least In Havana, where
only a little over three-fourths of the
Inhabitants were native born. Three
fourths of the foreign born were of
Spanish birth. The proportion of those
born In Spain was naturully greatest la
the city of Havana, where It reached
nearly 20 per cent of all the Inhabit
ants, and was least In the province ot
Santiago.
"In the matter of citizenship, 83 per
cent claimed Cuban citizenship, oaly 1
per cent the protection of Spain, while
11 per cent were, at the time of the
census, In suspense, not having declar
ed their Intentions, The purest Cubu
citizenship was found In the province
of Santiago, where OlrT per cent of the,
Inhabitants claimed to be cltlseas of
Cuba, On the other band, In tbe city
of Havana only 04.2 per cent were
Cuban citizens. It Is InterestlBf te

MARRIAGE IN TURKEY.
eafeauarda Thrown Around the Rights)
of n Moslem Woman.
Among the Turks marriage Is a
strictly civil net, the validity of which
consists in being attested by at least
two witnesses; and although an Imam,
or priest, Is usually present at the sign
ing of tho contract, it is rather in his
legal than In his religious capacity.
Tho civil ceremony is very simple. Tho
bridegroom and his witnesses repair to
the home of tho bride, in the sclamllk,
or public apartments, of which her malo
relatives discuss with them tho amount
of tho ncklah tho dower payablo by
tho husband or his executors to tho
wife, should she be divorced by or sur
vive him.
This question settled, and tho docu
ment drnwn up, tho bridegroom thrlco
repeats his desire to marry tho daugh
ter of So-and-so, upon which tho Imnm
proceeds to the. door of communication
with tho haremllk, behind which tho
brldo and her femalo relatives are as
sembled; and, after declaring tho
amount of ncklah agreed upon, this
functionary asks tho maiden If she ac
cepts such a ono for her husband.
When tho question and tho affirmative
. .
answer hnvo been thrlco repeated, tho
Imam returns to the sclamllk, where ho
attests the consent of the bride, and tho
parties arc considered to be now legally
married.
Tho couple do not, however, meet un
til tho conclusion of tho dughun alafcttl,
or week of wedding festivities and
ceremonies, which may not bo held for
some months afterward. These enter
tainments, to which all friends and ac
quaintances aro luvltcd, and nt which
tho poor of tho neighborhood aro also
feasted, constitute tho social sanction
of tho family alllanco entered Into In
private. For should tho girl's assent
bo suspected of having been obtained
by forco or frnud, and tho match is
considered unsuitable, public disap
proval would very properly bo shown
by refusal to take part In tho weddiug
'rejoicings. And even when nil theso
formalities aro at an cud. and tho brldo
Jl M01I.KM MATRON.
has been conducted with much pomp to
her now homo, If tho spouso chosen for
her by her parents or guardians la not
altogether a persona grata to herself,
abn may still rofuuo to accept him as
her husband. For, according to nu
Oriental custom of great antiquity, a
nowly-wcdded husband can ussume no
rights over his wlfo uutll sho has spok
en to him.
Tho possession by a Moslem woman
of such personal and proprietary rights
Is rendered, necessary by tho facilities
for divorce accorded by law to a Mos
lem man. For it husband has but to
say to his wife l a moment of anger,
"Cover thy face, thy ncklah Is In thlno
hand!" when sho censes to bo his wlfo
and must leave bis roof forthwith, tak
ing with her bug ami baggugo. In prac
tice, however, various obstacles to di
vorce, religious, social and pecuniary,
offer themselves. Tho husband seldom
has, for Instance, the ready cash with
which to pay tho promised dower; con
siderable social odium attaches to such
a proceeding; a mau who without Just
and serious cause repudiates a wlfo
does not easily obtain a second, and
added to theso considerations Micro is
tho religious censuro coutalnod in tho
words of tho prophet, "Tho curse of
Allah rests upon him who capriciously
repudiates his wife." If, hotvover, the
wife, without adequato causo nud con
trary to tho desire of her husband, so
licits a divorce, she obtains It ouly by
foregoing her neklnh.
Holiest of Irish IaIco Dwellers.
An Interesting relic of tbe lako dwell
ers of Ireland has Just been added to
the Science and Art Museum of Dub
lin In tbe form of a crannog, or ele
vated dwelling. It was discovered In
a bog-tilled lako near Unulsklllen and
measures over 100 feet In diameter. On
removing the peat the piles of platform
timbers were laid bare. The piling and
cross-timbering were admirably done,
untrlmmcd birch trees being chiefly
used for crosslaylng, whllo oak was
used for the stouter piles. A large
quantljy of broken pottery was found
In It, besides an Iron ax of early form,
a fragment of a comb and some bronze
harp pegs
