TUft iAILY ASTOIUAN, ASTORIA, 8UKDAY JIOBNIHQ, MABCH 20. Result afthe Competition School competition No. 3 la over and gathered among the has beena. Last Tuesday morning we asked the follow ing questions: 1. Tell us the total unmber of In dians in the United States, and the population of the earth. 2. What Is your shortest and best definition of the word "fame?" 3. What would you do If . you had i million dollars? 4. Whose death was It that freed I continent from fear? We are sorry that last week we omit ted to give the correct answers to the questions, but It was simply an over sight that will not occur again. Of the above, of course, It is only in our power to give two exact answers. The second and third questions call for a matter of opinion, and are simply a test of the bright thoughts and quick wits of the competitors. In answer to the first query there are, by latest computation, 1,479,729,400 peo ple on the earth, and 249,273 Indians in the United States excluding Alaska. Including Alaska there are 275,124. The fourth question calls for the words "Napoleon the Great" There was a slight falling off this week in the number of answers re ceived owing no doubt to the weather. We were given 91 communications up to noon yesterday. Eight came in af ter that hour, and were ruled out of the competition In consequence. The most noticeable thing among the returns is the predominating excel lence of the papers sent In by children under thirteen years of age. As will be seen, many of these obtained honor able mention. To the first question there were all sorts of replies, the fig ures ranging from fifty thousand to fifty billions. Bert Ross, Nettle Tut tle, J. P. McLeur, Ross Trulllnger, Martha Gilbert, Bertha Arnstadt, Reba Hobson, and Paul Trulllngef, were close enough to the true figures to ob tain full marks. The second puzzle also brought out a large variety of answers, many of them being peculiar and amusing. One little boy says that Fame Is "what you get when you live with the angels." The best answers received were: "Noto riety, either for good or evil." (Ross Trulllnger) "Good or bad reputation." (Martha Gilbert) "Public opinion or a person, based upon some unusual ac tion "or achievement." (Polly McKean) "A soap bubble," (Maybell Young) "A man who would build a railroad to Astoria would be filled with fame, hon or, and renown." (Reba Hobson). As might naturally be expected, the answers to question No. 3, were the cream of the whole competition. The matter opened up such a wide field that the replies could not be any thing but startling and original. From the big pile of good ones we select the following: Twenty-six would "help the poor." Thirty-one would "travel and enjoy life." E. Tappan Stafford: "I would pave some of the mud holes and grade down some of the hills In the county roads of Clatsop." Sarah E. Smalley: "I would hunt up ( children In the country who could not go to school, and help them to get an education. I would assist poor people who are trying to asiBt themselves. would let my mother travel for her health, and I would go to Vassar Col lege." Emma Auclnus: "I would give halt to missionaries In foreign lands, and spend the other halt on my education." James D. Taylor: I would build a railroad to Astoria." Ella M. Powell: "I would help to build an opera house and a railroad In Astoria." Fred Young, (aged 10); "I would build Third street to Alderbrook, and erect an electric light plant with power enough to run a train on a 10 per cent, grade." Paul Trulllnger: "I would put It In the bank until I was 21 years of age." Percy B. Sovey, Mable Ohler, George Cherry and ten others would build a railroad Into Astoria from Portland. Elmore Ross: "I would first give my self a good education, and then found a college in Astoria for mechanics." Bessie. L. Ross: "I would spend it as one who had to give an account to God." Violet Bowlby: "I would endeavor to make myself and others happy with , u" ' Reba Hobson: "I would get a good ' education, put some of It Into brick buildings, and distribute the balance for the best purposes." Polly McKean: "I would Invest some money In real estate In a growing town, rait In government bonds, and start some manufactures in Astoria. I would then be enabled to take the course at Vassar or Wellesley college. After that I would cultivate my mind by travel, and devotion to art and litera ture." Martha, .Gilbert: '$300,000 In land, $500,000 In buildings, 375.000 In govern ment bonds, $25,000, Institution for the poor. 3100,000 on Interest In a bank." Robs Trulllng)er: "Let my father keep It till I was old enough to know what to do with It." Bert Ross:. "First I would think how I got It, and then I would figure out some scheme for getting more." - Maybell Young: "I would build a free hospital and endow It, In the city of Astoria. I would also build a fret public library for the city and endow It. I would also pay (In advance) a years subscription for 60 coplesof the Dally Astorlan. I would In fact, use my money for the good of my fellow be in." j, p. McLeur: "I would continue my studies In the high school, and if I fin- tehed In June I would stay from school one year and work; then I would enter some preparatory college and fit myself for Yale or Harvard. After I had fin ished my education I would settle down in Astoria aud promote its interests as well as I could, and I would donate $500,000 to. the Astoria mossbacks - for charity's sake, to help them get move on and build a railroad." Bertha Arnstadt: "One half td railroad, half of the balance to charity, and the rest out on Interest." Llla Pearl Roes: "I would first leave Astoria immediately and settle myself and relatives In some good place in comfort and luxury. Then would give half my wealth to charit able institutions. After that I would put out the balance on interest and travel over as much of the world as I cared to see, on my income." Florence Twombly answers her sec ond and thrd questions with one reply in verse as follows: By words or deeds, it's all the same, If we're renowned, we call it fame; And with a million dollars all my own I'd try to use It that, when all was sown. The crown of honor that mankind calls fame Would ever live and circle round my name." Of the ninety-one replies 82 answered the last question correctly. The other answers were "Genges Kann" (2), 'ii berlus (3), Alexander the Great (1), Ab raham Lincoln (1), Jay Gould (1), John L. Sullivan (1). After a careful estimate of the com parative merits of the papers we pre sent the prize for this week to ROSS W. TRULLINGER, (aged 9). Of the Astoria Select School. His an swers secured 94 marks out of a possi ble 100. Next In order and honorably men tioned, come Florence Twombly (92), Martha Gilbert (92), Llla Pearl Ross (92) Maybell Young (91), Reba Hobson (91). Bertha Arnstadt (91), Roscoe Cassell (90), J. P. Mc Leur (90), Nettle Tuttle (90), Bert Ross (89), Polly McKean (89), Paul Trulllnger (84), Violet Bowlby (84). Elmore Ross (82), BessleL. Ross (82), Percy B. Sovey (82), and George L. Cherry (81). It will thus be seen that about 15 per cent of the contestants secured honor able mention. The next series of questions will be announced In Tuesday's paper. The British bark Kitty, Captain H. Wilson, arrived in yesterday from Cal loo. She left here on March 10th of last year, with a general cargo for Haiphong, China. From there she wenr to Hong Kong and loaded for Callao. She left Callao for this port on Feb ruary 6th lost, and had a pleasant pas sage until March 21st, when she en countered terrific gales, and shifted her ballast with excessive rolling. Singu larly enough on the 21st of March last year, she met with a terrible gale when on her voyage from this port to Haip hong. The Kitty arrived off the bar yesterday, took on a pilot and was towed In. She Is consigned to W. Dun bur, of Portland. The barkenllne Modoc, seventeen days from Port Blakeley, and bound for Shanghai, sprung a leak during ihe voyage down, and put Into San Francisco on Friday for repairs. The boiler was lifted out of the Spreckels tug Reliance Friday, and the oat will be thoroughly overhauled be 'oro going Into commission again. Business was rushing In the shipping wners' shipping office In San Fran jlsco yesterday, no less than seven rews being signed and sent on board vessels owned by the association.

Garfield, bound up the coast, and befor 4 o'clock In the afternoon orews had been signed for the schooner era Melancthon, Webfoot, Occidental and Tarn O'Shanter, and also for the steamer Scotia and bark Theobald. The rrews of the vessels were on board be fore sundown, and most of them will go to sea as soon as the weather Is favorable. Chronicle.

From almost its first number this magazine has been in the habit of pointing out from time to time, the great value of free public libraries as a means for spreading popular educa tion. In an article In this department In The Century for June, 1892, we said A library Is of more use, in an educa. tlonal way, than a high school. The taste for good reading Is the true door to culture, and is the taste for good reading be once established In a young person, there is an absolute certainty or tne attainment or a degree or cul ture which persevering years in school cannot give. It is not tnough to have free schools. A widespread movement for libraries, which shall be either wholly free or exceedingly cheap. would be a most wholesome one. The abolition of the low-priced, pirated pro ductions, wmcn we nope to see brought anout Dy copy-right, would leave the field freo for libraries, and libraries would render American as well as Eng lish literature of easy access to the humblest. This hope about copyright Is at last realized, and we are glad to see in many directions indications - that its fulfillment has come at a very oppor tune moment so far as the growth of the free library movement is concerned. It is most encouraging to learn that within the past few years there has been a steadily growing interest in this subject manifested in nearly all parts of the country. The chief reason of this has undoubtedly been the action of Massachusetts in creating a Free Pub lic Library Commission, whose zealous, Intelligent, and successful exertion has commanded the envy, and excited the ambition of every state. The Mas sachusetts commission was authorized by a law which was passed in 1890. It Is composed of five persons, appointed by the governor, who hold office for five years, but whose terms expire in different years, one new commissioner being appointed each year. They are authorized to expend, on the applica tion of a board of library trustees of any town having no free library, owned and controlled by the town, a sum not exceeding $100 for books, to be used In establishing a free public library. The trustees who make the application must have been duly and regularly elected at a town meeting. The law provides that towns establishing libra' rles under the act, shall appropriate a certain sum each year, according to the assossed valuation of their property for the use and maintenance of the library. The governor appointed as the first commission, Mr. C. D. TUllnghast, of Boston, Mr. Samuel S. Green, of Worcester, Mr. Henry S. Nourse. af Lancaster, Miss E. P. Sohler, of Bever ly, and Miss Anna E. Plcknor. of Boston. . The Impulse Imparted to this most worthy and patriotic work of popular education has not been confined to Mas. sachusetts. It has spread all over New England, and is felt perceptibly hi many western states. New Hampshire has created a similar commission, and othr states are preparing to do the same In the near future. There are memorial library buildings going up In Increasing numbers yearly In all parts of New England, and free public libra ries are coming to be more and more a recognized branch of the educational machinery of every city and town. An Imperfect report of the gifts and be quests to libraries in the United States, of. which record could be obtained, which was mode to the Conference of Librarians in San Franctsco in Octo ber, 1891, placed the total at nearly $24,000,000. The true total Is undoubt edly far in excess of that, but this Is a sufficiently large sum to give encour aging evidence that people of : wealth realize the Importance of the work which libraries are doing. It Is urged with great earnestness by the leaders in the free library move ment that In order to perform perfect ly their high and useful mission, all public libraries should be absolutely free. The charging of a fee, however small, greatly reduces the usefulness of any library. The testimony of statis tics on this point is conclusive. When the public library of Springfield, which had been charging a small annual fee, was made free In 18S5, the number of card-holders increased during the year from 1.100 to over 7,000, and the clrcult tlon of books from 41.000 to'154,000. A similar change In the Otis library In Norwich, Connecticut, made about a year ago, increased- tne. numoer oi books taken out during the following year, from 600 to 3,000. March Century.

He was promptly taken in hand by the police and conveyed to prison; otherwise he would, in all prob ability, have been killed by the angry multitude.
