STATE
CENSUS
IN MAY
County Assessors Will Make
Enumeration Under
Old Law
Secretary of Stato Dunbar has placed
an order with Stato Printer Whitney
for tho printing of tho census blanks
for tho uso of the assessors in tho stato
census, which will bo taken this year,
under tho old law, tho now census law
falling to pass tho last session of tho
legislature.
Tho first state enumeration was made
in tho year 1803, and has been made
under tho same stato law every 10th
year since. Tho law reads that the
county assessors shall enumorato tho
population of the state, tho number of
legal votors, tho number of males and
females residing in tho stato, and the
following gonernl information as to tho
general resources of tho state, to-wit:
Tho number of acres under cultivation,
tho number of bushels of wheat, oats,
corn, barley, rye, apples and potatoes-raised;
tho numbor of tons of hay;
tho pounds of wool, tobacco, cheeso and
butter; tho ounces of gold dust; feet
of lumber; barrels of salmon; baskets
of oystors, and number of mules,
horses and cattlo raised and produced
during tho proceeding year.
It will bo tho duty of tho assessor to
ascertain theso things, then turn the
roll over to tho county clerk, who will,
in turn, mako a copy of it to file in his
oftlco, and then turn it over to tho sec-
'rotary of state.
Secretary of Stato Dunbar says that
tho onumer'ation will probably bogin
about tho first of Mny, tho law order
ing that tho work shall bo commenced
before tho 10th of that month.

TRY0UT
In
State House Furnaces
Against the Cheaper
Slab Wood
Tho tryout of tho burning of slab
wood in tho furnaces of tho stato houso
has been watched with great interest
this winter, and not a little surprise
was evinced when it was learned that
it was choaper to burn old fir than it
is to uso slabs.
Engineor Frank Frisby made tho try
out in tho state houso furnaces during
tho latter part of November and tho
first of Docomber, nnd ho says that,
undor tho conditions, that tho slab
wood had an advantago over tho fir,
in tho fact that it was slightly warm
er weather during its trial, and nlso
that tho old fir would show up a great
er saving than it did if the weathor
had been colder.
Tho trial lusted 32 days, 16 for oach
kind of wood. Tho slnb wood was
tried first, and 35 cords woro con
sumed in tho length of time givon.
This wood, costing $2.95 por cord,
amounted to $103.25 in tho trinl.
Against this was placed 23 cords of
old fir, which was burned during tho
sanio length of time, during colder
weather, and which cost $3.90 per cord,
amounting to $87.90 throughout tho
test. Tho difference botweon tho cost
of tho two kinds of wood being $13.55
in favor of tho more oxponsivo old fir,

by Mrs. Jessio Eldrldgo Southwlck.
Mrs. Southwick is a clover reader, and
her work shows careful study of tho
classic, and her impersonation of tho
different characters of tho play do
serves much credit. Her enunciation
is clear nnd distinct, and she holds her
audience. She is unnfTectod, anil her
gestures nro very graceful.
Her interpretation of tho parts of
Portia, Shylock and Antonio woro the
best, although nil of tho characters re
ceived a correct presentation.
Sho showed her wonderful work in tho
