Through tho west window from the

that shed its light around the cata

tho shaft of light to tho cross as ho re

Tho chief magistrate of tho country
bowed his head in his hands. Ho was
visibly agitated. There was scarcoly
a dry cheek in tho crowded edifice,
and the widow was comparatively the

all tho principal emirs were killed or

caped. Tho dervishes were utterly do- j
feated, their whole camp was taken
and thousands surrendered. A largo

also fell into the hands of tho Anglo

"CENSUS OF DAIRY PRODUOTS,
Hmiulroments of the T.av In ltrgnrd to
Statistics.
Tho law requires tho statistics forth
12th census of dairy products (farm
and factory) to bo taken on soparate
bohotlulos. .. .

On tho manufacture- sschdulo wUI nc
taken tho quantity of butter and cheese
mado in factories, co-operative and otli
orwiso, together with the quantity and
cost of raw materials (milk and cream),
cost of labor, capital invested, charac
ter and value of plant and machinery,
etc. . ,
After thn two forms of pchodulci
.i.nii l.nvn linmi returned to tho ceiiHUH

i.,if,,w luiu ii'im shown, tno mu
yield of milk in tho United States and
tho amouuta and values of its soveral
porducts.
This assertion is based on ,tho n
sumption that the farmers shall fu'
ntat. tn tim enumerators, fully and at -

chceso factory and creamery operations
for tho current year aro destroyed,
agreeably to previous vote of directors
or patrons. For 1800 thoy should vote,
instead, to havo prepared and prosorved
fnr thn IIKII of tllO CeilHUB enumerators,
who will anncar on Juno 1, 1000, tho
Btntiotirq which tho law saya shall bo

In itiimv cases a failure to do this
will prevent tho enumerators from ho
cnrini? nnv returns, bocause now man
ns-ers, or now secretaries, or new boards
nf control mav bo in chareo on Juno 1,
1000, who will kuow nothing of tho
factory statistics of 1800 and tho fig
ures for 1809 aro tho ones which tho
law says shall bo taken.
Farmers who keep no records of thoir
transactions will find themselves in tho
sumo dilemma, on tho arrival of tho
census enumerator, as a factory which
destroys its records. Therefore, Chief
Statistician Powers is appculing to all
of them to prepare in writing,
while tho necessary facts aro fn;sh
in mind, such a statement of milk,
cream, butter and cheeeo products us
will enable them to reply prom ptly and
accurately to tho inquiries which tho
law says tho enumerators must make.
If thoy shall fail to do this, tho sta
tistics of dairy products in thoir coun
ty will bo incomplete, and will com
pare unfavorably with those of counties
wherein tho returns aro more accurato.
THE POPE WORKS HARD.
How the Supreme Pontiff Passes Kach
liny at the Vatican.
Rome, October. 23, 1SW. (Special Cable.)
Pope Leo is an early riser, and Vy
that I mean a man who Is out of bed
and at work at fivo o'clock in the morn
ing. Ho takes a light breakfast a
littlo very weak coffee with plenty of
milk, and a pieco of bread. Ho works,
reading or writing and receiving soino
visits, until lunch time. In tho after
noon ho takes his walk, and when in !
ordinary health Bpends somo time
in the gardens of tho Vatican; then
he returns to his apartment, where ho
says his rosary. Ho may then reccivo
.a low visitors, auer which "u umun u
H Jp and dines. At ten P. M. ho reads
tho newspupcra and then retires lor tno
night. Tho Pope thus really works all
day long, and latterly ho has takci
nourishment four or fivo times a day
but always of a light charactor a lit
tle meat, soups, bouillon, a glass or
two of Mariani wino and a good doal of
milk, which forms tho larger part of j
his diet.
During his rocent illness very littlo
medicine was given him; tho physicians
rolled principally upon rest, nourish
ment and Btimulunts every now and
then, but always in small quantities.
Tho Pope's nervous energy, jib al
ready noted in a previous letter, iH
something remarkable in ono of his ad
vanced years, and when ho comes out
of his apartment ho almost runs walk
ing so fast that his attendants can
hardly keop up with him.
When ho is to bo carried in stato
into tho Sistino Chapel, to attend or
preside at any ceremony, tho clanking
of tho sabres of tho noblo guard on
tho marble floors can bo hoard a long
distance off, and several minutes bo
fore tho procession reaohos tho chapel.
Tho Popo, it seems, although stooping
well and enjoying his afternoon nap,
which lie takes every (lav, does not
sleep so much at night, during which
