Who Are to Enumerate. Wabslngton. D. C.. Feb. 19. ? The explicit and lengthy printed Instruc tions to the census enumerators, which hare been prepared by the United States Census Bureau, give a clear idea of the character of the an swers expected from the people of the ; United States with regard to the questions Mn the population schedule to be carried in the Decennial Census April 15 next All answers to have reference sole ly to the "Census Day,' which la April 15. Persons living on that day, but who died atter It and before the enumerators call, are to be counted, |fcit persons born after April 15 are sons who were single on April 15 are to be reported as singly, even though they have married subsequently and before the canvasser has called. This is true, similarly, of persons who be came widowed or divorced after April 15. The census law provides that all persons shall be enumerated at their "usual place of abode" on April 15. This means the place where they may be said to live or belong or the place which is their home. As a rule, the usual place of abode is not the place where a person works or where he eats, but where he regularly sleeps. The enumerators are cautioned, how ever, that where a man happens to sleep at the time of the enumeration may not ||e the place where he regu larly sleepfe. There will be a number of persons having the usual places of *bode in enumeration districts who will be ab sent April 15. These are to be in cluded and enumerated after the facts regarding them have been ob from their families, relatives. Acquaintances,' t>r otlmr persons able to give the ?Information. For In stance, if a member of any family in an enumeration district Is tempo rarily away from home on a visit, or on business, or traveling for pleasure, or attending school or college, or sick in a hospital, such absent person is to be enumerated and Included with other members of the family. But a son or daughter regularly living in another locality should not be count ed with the family at home. Servants, laborers, or other em ployes, who live with the family, and sleep in the same house or on the premises, should be enumerated with the family. The Census Bureau states that there will be, on the other hand, a certain number of persons present and perhaps lodging and sleeping In districts at the time of the enumera tion who do not have usual Places of abode there. Thtte are not tc. be enumerated. It must be as sumed that they will be- enumerated elsewhere. The canvassers should nqt. therefore, unless It Is practlcaljy certain that thef will not he enumer ated anywhere pise, enumerate or in clude with the members of a family they are enumerating any ofthe fol lowing classes.

C yde was ad#0d today the formal vcatement that/] evidence had been found tending ^ prove that he had inoculated xneuiers of the Bwope family with typhoid bacilli. In an answe/Jo a petition filed in the circuit court^of Independence by Dr. Hyde, asking that Attorney John O. Paxton be oompolled to produce certain letters that passed between aidwlg Hektoen, of iton today accused faith ,ln attempting to Qp0fure evidence he had collected. This evidence, he said today /^tended ti* nrnv^ that jfrdo had murdered, by the administration of poison, Thos. H. Swope and Chrlsman Swope. had also attempted ko poison Margaret Swope, and by the same kind of treatment had communicated to the members of the Swope family typhoid fever. His Motion Denied. Veiled charges.against Dr. Hyde in connection with the death of Chris man Swofc and ^he alleged poisoning of Miss Margaret Swope had been frequently made, but the charge that the physician communicated typhoid bacilli to members of the family had never been made openly before. The typhoid epjfdeialc In the Swope home is the most mysterious feature of the case. No one has ever suc cessfully explained the origin of the disease; yet eight perapnV In the home were Stricken by typhoid fever between December 1 and December 32. 1909. Dr. Hyde?vras In attendance at the Swope bom* uti'tll December 18,' when the^nurses struck o* account of his rresence. 1'mMK . Judge Powell, of the clrcuTPcou/T at Independence, Mo., overruled the motion filed by Dr. Hyde. i Mr. Paxtons' attorneys argued that the communications were sent to him as the attorney of the Swope family, and that Mr. Paxton could not di vulge their contents without violat ing the confidential relationship be tween attorney and client. The preliminary hearing of Dr. Hyde was continued for one week by Justice W. S. Loar today. The bond of 150,000 was renewed.

Let j a few more men come forward and we will have a fair worthy of a far wealthier section. If 200 more men such as Dr. Hardy came forward we ^ would have such a fair as any sec- ^ tion of the world would be p^oud of. , Now let?B review what we haver j $120 worth of solid silver, gold lined cvps. donated by Mr. Chas. .

Now that the Agricultural Fair ( project is in hand and well under way. let Washington talk agricultural fair, such a one as will tend to ele- . vate the farmers interest In the grow ing of larger and better crops. Do this, and you will see "Washington grow"; you will see bank deposits swell; you will see larger, more at tractive and more comfortable farm houses glistening with paint; you w411 see better roads, and Beaufort county farmers will be in a position to liberally subscribe to mill projects In the town.

Dispatches received today placed the number of injured at at least 100. Chancellor Vou ttethmaun-Hcllweg akfoued by the situation today, held a long conference with his advisers, at which every phase of franchise re form and the disorders that have been brought about b^' the govern ment's stand on that subject wero discussed. The belief is growing all the time that (he chancellor will be swept from power by this crisis. Only real reform ? an alteration of the three classes of voters ahd the com plete concession of the secret ballot such as 1h used in the I'nited States ? can check the socialists and such changes would alienate the conserva tives from the chancellor. Details of the fighting at Frank fort received today show the struggle .was the most bltterand serious of all that have arisen from the electoral question. The police were unable to cope with it and had to call on the troops for aid. Again and again the police and military charged the mobs in the face of stormB of missiles, and the. blows of cudgels. Showers of pepper were hurled in the faces of the troops and from the tops of buildings manlfest ants cast brickbats and everything else theyj could lay their hands on Into the ranks. The most ferocious fighters of the radicals were the women. One girl, waving a red flag, stood at the fore front of a group of rioters which fought back a detchment of police for half an hour at one of the city's principal corners. |^>!cS!?SSL and rank or xue imiiiiintiiin 1 women. : ' Not till the authorities turned off the lights were t he-crowds dispersed.

COMPLIMENTS Tlic Circular of Colourl H. <\ llrngntv 1'iHlwd un<l Copimcnricd by Army Offlcpm. Col. H. C. Hrugaw Is the author of a recent circular to the company com manders of the Second North Caro lina Infantry, urging them to u* more diligence In rifle practice, which for shortness and sweetoena could hardly be- excelled. The letter was a model, and calculated to arouse a great amount of enthusiasm, which it did all through the regiment, Jhe colonel upon visiting Raleigh recent ly, found officers of this State and Captain Casey, of Pennsylvania, dis cussing his circular. Captain Caaey, who is one of the world's best shots, was a taember of the team . of two regulars and 10 National Guardsmen which won from the national and provincial teams of England, Austra lia and Canada the international championship in 1908 at Toronto, the team having no other competitor!) Captain Caaey was so impressed lor tne world's championship. that he begged permission to use the circular In his own State, and It Is likely to be copied by others. Colonel Bragaws' regiment has the record of Increasing the number of its crack shots from three marksmen In 1908 to two experts and 48 marksr men In 1909 ? an unparalleled In crease. This speaks well for the ef forts of Its commander and his on-1 cars. * New Advertisements in Today's News ? ?
