"How old is Freddie?" and "How
many cows do you possess?" are not
joint questions, but will have to be
. answered soon by Mr. and Mrs. Gen
eral Public when the enumerators
for fourteenth decennial census put
in their appearance on January 1. Of
course there may be no "Freddie'
and the persons being: Interrogated
may not own a cow or even a dog, but
there are many other questions which
Uncle Sam desires to have answered
In order to be fully informed concern
lag the "Great American Citizen.
' Many persons, especially those Of
foreign birth often labor under mis
apprehensions concerning Xh trus
purpose of the census, according to
the experience of enumerators in pre
vious years. Many exhibit a desire to
avoid the .information collectors,
thinking that" the data secured will
be used to affect increased taxation,
legal entanglement or other conse
quences injurious to their welfare.
The department of census at Wash
ington, through the bureau of the
census, wishes to. reassure all who
doubt the census motive that census
information cannot tinder any clr
. cumstances be used as a basis for tax
ation, nor can it be used to harm any
person or his property. Census lnfor-
mation, according to reassurances
given by the bureau of census,' has
nothing whatever to do with detec
tion, arrest, prosecution, or punish'
ment of any person for any violation
; of any law. Further-i census informa
tion Is strictly confidential The cen
sus is the means by, which the govern
ment ascertains the Increase in popu
lation, statistics concerning agricul
ture and other vital information con
cerning the resources of the United
States. ...

backing-that was not the best in the
league, was the most effective hurler
in the younger circuit, according to
the averages released today by Presi
dent Ban Johnson. He pitched 290
innings, aHowed. 235 . J hits in 89
, games, issued 51 passes; struck out
147; hit seven batters, all for an av
erage of 1.49. :

Cleveland, 2.62. .

king" of the circuit. Ha sent 147 bat
ters back to the bench via the whiff
route. Shaw, his team mate, was sec
ond with 126 and Claude Williams,

dency in the league to plant the ball
into the anatomy of the batters. He
hit eleven during the season.
Myers, Cleveland, Mays, New York
and Sothoron, St. Louis, hit ten each.
Ehmke, one of Hugh Jennings'
hurlers, was the most liberal tossers
of the Johnson flock. He Issued a to
tal of 107 free tickets. Bob Shawkey,
of the Yankees, was second wltit 99,
Shaw of Washington, walked 98.
Washington had a trio of the wild
est heavers in the league. Shaw had
ten wild pitches, Harp nine and Erlck
son had eight. '

A trio of hurlers broke Into the
balk column with a pair of hesita
tions. They were Kinney" of the Ath
