England, eermany
and France
Mr. jOhrf
Tyrrell
The taking of the Dominion owe
lends interest to en article on censue-
teniug to bo found in Peareon's Maga-
zine, in the course of whielt the syeteme
employen in Eugland, -Germany and
France ere contraated with that followed
in the Lealted States, 'ale fernier are con-
ducten on A most economieal beets,
wherees in the I:ellen States, the secur-
ing at censue retain le made the °poor-
tunityfor working a huge politteal graft.
Flom title cloger we are 710t lit all free
in Canada.
The Englieh eysteni is first explained
itt detail.
°Mild announeement is made that on
a certain hour of a certain day„ the cen-
sus will be taleen. rhe day is usually
Saturday, and the hour is either mid-
night or 11 p, me A late hour Satileday
night is selected, because even those who
have been away during the week usually
come home to stay over Sunday. Printed
circulars, prepared by the government,
bo sent by the police to the head of ev-
ery family that lives in a private dwell-
ing, to the owner of each apartment
house or lodging, and to the owner of
each hotel.
These circulars contain blank spaces ht
esidelt the citizens are required to record
every fact about themselves that the
government desires to learn. The house-
holder at whose home such a Melee is
left is required to fill in, 'within a speci-
fied reasonable time, the names of all
those who, at the hour the census was,
taken, were under his roof, together
with information concerning the probe -
We whereabouts of those domiciled with
hitu who were temporarily absent. The
owners of hotels, apartment houses and
lodgings are themselves required—and
under heavy penalties, too, for disobedi-
ence—to see that their guests or tenants
both promptly and properly fill in the
blank forme.
While the work of preparing data is
proceeding within clove the police are
engaged in rounding up stragglers in the
streets, man is seen in the shadows,
eveaking toward what may be his home.
A policenuin stops him, taking his name
and address. Another policeman boards
car filled with passengers. Every pas-
senger must tell who he is and where he
lives. All of the required information
concerning these persone has probably
already been written out in the place in
which they live, but the late -hour travel-
ers, as a cheek against omission, are nev-
ertheless interrogated.
Sometimes a frisky Englishman who,
for re-asoes of his own, does no,t want to
figure in the census, tries to evade the
government by riding around all night in
a cab. Ten chances to one he will not
succeed in his purpose. Cabs are stopped
ae unhesitatingly as are street cars -or
pedestrians. The government wants to
kuow, The government will not be de-
nied.
All over England, Ireland, Scotland
and Wino this proceeding takes place at
the same hour, Rural police have car-
ried the blanks to -the peasants' cottages,
as the Metropolitan police have borne
the circulars to the Immo of the dwell-
ers in the cities,
A. day or two later—perhaps Monday
or Tosday—the blanks are gathered up.
But they are uot collected by specially
appointed enumerators working, by the
grace of politicians, for extra wages, but
by the police, as a part of their regular
work for their regular pay.
ln Germany, a censae is taken when-
ever the Bundersrath gives the order, us.
ually every three or four years. As in
Eugland, circulars are printed and dis-
tributed by the pollee. But they are not
collected ey the police. The burgomas-
ter issues a call for volunteere. So many
offer to help that the aid of all cannot
he accepted. School teachers, unemploy-
ed clerks, retired business men and oth-
ers proffer their services without pro-
mise or hope of a mark or a pfennig as
oempensa tion. nIn Germany,' says a
German offielel, it is considered an hon-
or to respond tee any,,nsall that the Gov-
ernment may make for gratuitous pub-
lic service.
The Freon valeta is perhaps the best
organized and most efficient of the
three.
Prance, at all times, ha stile name and
addresses of all travellers who are so-
journing within its borders. Within a
week from the time a. child is born, its
name must be reported to the pollee. The
birth -report must also give the names of
the cbild's parents, together with their
addresses.

also be given. If the Mind be a boy, his

It is, theerfore, a simple matter for
France to take a census. Knowing the
names and the abiding places of her peo-

to reach them. Eventhe aid of the peep -
lice is not required. The whole proceed-
ing is carried on by mail without post-
age. The chief civil offtcial in the small.
est political division—approximating one
of our townships—mails the necesisary
blanks to all of those persons who are
domiciled within his district, together
with envelopes in which the completed
documents may be returned to him with,
out. the payment of postage. The official
of this division makes up the totals and
forwards them to. his superior officer,
wbose position is comparable, let us say,
to that of an American county clerk.
The officials whom we should call coun-
ty clerks repott to others whom we
should ctill governors, end in this way all
ef the facts of the census are finally con-
centrated in Paris, where they are pre-
pared fot publication by regular govern-

Early Call for Little Miss MeLeuehlin
on the Long Distance 'Phone.
There probably has n'ever been a more
eurpresect wing of lung distance tele-
phone operators then those from Aare to
Milwaukee tne caner day when theY got
through handling a eall put in by a man
who loves to do unusual thino. Mr.
Stillwell, as he may be called, woke up
one yearning In New York to find a tele-
gram from his goo -In-law in Milwaukee
saying that a granddaughter liad just
arrived. The gon-in-law's name may be
given as McLaughlin.
Mr. Stillwell went to the telephone and
asked for long distance.
"I want to put in a call for Milwaukee,"
atad he when the operator had respond-
ed; "I want to speak to Miss McLaugh-
lin at 2842 -- street."
The operator repeated the name aud
address! and then asked for the first
name of the person called.
"1 csn't give you that," said Mr. Still-
well, 'but if you call Sot Miss MeLaughs
.tIn thet will be enough. But don't for-
get, don't Want to speak to any one
but Miss McLaughlin.'" Ile hung up the
receiver and went back to his breakfast.
In a few minutes the bell wbirred and
Mr. Stillwell went to the phone in some
excitement.
"Miss McLaughlin can't. speak," was
the Inessage that cattle front the oper-
ator. "I oan get Mr. McLaughlin if he
will do."
"No, he won't do at all," mad Mi. Still.
well with every evidence of exaspera-
tidn. "Please be kind enough to find
out when Miss McLaughlin will be able
to speak."
Ue hold the receiver to his ear this
time and beard a wrangling afar off, a
clicking of instruments and it murmur
of Indistinct voices, At last thb answer
came. It was:
"Two years!"
Meanwhile, as Ur. Stillwell found out
later, his son-in-law had been having a
terrible time. There was enough going on
in that house in Milwaukee anyway that
mornitig, and when the phohe bell rang
the head of the hottsehold wasn't any
too gentle about the way he growled.
"Well, what Is it?" Then he heard that
New York was calling by long distance
and thinkihg that his wife's family had
chosen this way of sending congratula-
tiens he calmed doWn little. But when
the operates, said that Miss McLaughlin
was wanted he hit the ceiling again.
"Vet mean Mrs. McLaughlin," said he.
"Well, the can't come to the phone just
now, but this Is lat. McLaughlin and—
weal, I guess sotisebOdY else will have to
do since there isn't any Miss INIcLEtugh—

There was a very brilliant affair at

No one must imagine that Ono cos-

all like theme picturesque fellowe who

them wore a red scarf round hie neck;
not one of the lady costern was dreese-
ed in velveteen or red plush.
On the contrary, this ball at Lime-
house might ltave been an assembly in

of Jewish gentlemen and ladies, in the

There wtte a dezzlin,g scene nf

with the emblems of Empire) was
thronged with enthusiastic dancers.
The costumes of the coster ladies
were quite woneerful. It wag de-
lisehtful te see these blonde or raven -

It was these elderly ladies who

But, as one of them explained.

are also. costumiers' shops down met
where, for a .few shillings, a lad may
hire au evening dress or where a
pretty girl ratty obtain, for a moan

the envy of all her friends. It Is a

Here ann there at the banquet last
night orie saw the true coster type.
Here and there one of the boys wore
a plastered curl in the middle of his
forehead. Now and again one heard
a voice hoarse with shouting la tee

costars -were all aristocreta, with white
waistcoats aact polite speech.
Not one of them 'engaged in a spar -

The truth is that the center of the

Like the city and bank elerks, who

was satisfied with wilderness fate. Ile
