' The announcement of the result of the census for this city has awakened a great deal of comment and argument as to its correctness and also as to tbe actual population of the city. We did not make tbe canvass of the city, conse quently are not prepared to dispute the correctness - of the assessor's figures. Others, however, do so, and point to the census of school children, in round num bers 1250, as an evidence that the census is not full. According to It there are 1143 persons in the city, counting the males under 21 years and the females under 18, while the school census, taking n but a trifling outside territory, shows 100 more than that number between the ages of 4 and 21. , We are free to state that we 'were surprised at the figures, as we had supposed there were not less than 4000 and possibly the number would reach 4500. v There iaonly one way to settle tbe dis pute, and that is to take the census over again in a house to house canvass. As some of our citizen's are firmly of tbe opinion tbe city has at least a thousand more than tbe population credited to it, it is probable this will be done at private expense. Tbe attendance at the schools, the number of school chil dren and tbe number of legal voters all indicate a population of over 4000. Real Estate Transactions.

'A Social Glass" at the opera bouse last night did not draw as large a house as it should have done, or as it was ex pected to do. One reason of this, we think, was the fact that . admission was placed at 75 cents for reserved.' seats, while if it had been 50 cents the bouBe would have been pretty well filled. "A Social Glass," as its name implies, is a temperance play, calculated to show the danger that lies in the wine cup. The play was well put on, but the curtain did not. go up until 20 minutes to 9 o'clock, and as the play is in five acts, and the curtain was down a long time between them, it was after 11 o'clock before it was concluded. There is some genuine talent in the Moro Dramatic Club, talent the play was not well calculated to bring ont, owing to its lachrymose character. Mr. Walter H. Moore as "Charles Thornly," took the part well, especially in tbe first act, which was the only one, by tbe way, that gave him much chance to show what was - in him. Tbe drink ing scene, winding up with his intoxica tion, was well done, and his fall over come by liquor and drugs, was some thing that Menken herself could not equal. It was natural and realistic. Clyde Williams as "Howard Hadley," and Geo. N. Bolton as "Dr. Slater," were well taken, though there was not much in either part. J. B. Hoeford as the barkeeper, "Farley," sustained tbe character well, and in tbe last scene in which he appeared did some. very realis tic acting. Wm. Holder as the schem ing villain lawyer, "Hollis," probably made a good one, but we never could do tbe villain in a play justice, because we always feel like falling on bim. ' Mr. C. E. Brown as "Bob Brittle, the only light character of a rather, lugubrious play, made mends with the audience in leds than a minute after the -curtain raised, and ..indeed he became tbe cen tral figure. His manner on the stage is easy and natural, and there is no doubt but that be 'possesses marked, talent for that kind of .work.-: The ladies had a hard time of if, as both "Mrs. Thornly" (Mrs. W. H Moore) and "Mrs. Farley (Mrs. R. L. Campbell) bad very difficult roles to play, though both made the most of them." Mrs. J. B. Hoeford as "Nettle Nettleby" assisted "Bob Brit tie" in giving a lighter coloring to the play. ' -4 ; . i -. ; , - 1 , ; Taken all in all the play was a success, and those , who attended got th full worth of their monev. interfered, and shall not interfere ; but with the governments which have de clared their independence and main tained it, and whose independence we have, on great consideration and just principles, acknowledged, we could not view an interposition for oppressing them, or controlling in any other man ner their destiny, by- any European power, in an other light than as a mani festation of an unfriendly disposition toward the United States."

Mr. Chrisman, if we are rightly informed, was tbe owner of the building burned last winter, in which so many of the settlers lost their lives.
