An interesting bulletin has just been issued | by the census office, which was prepared by Mr. Henry Gannett, the geographer of the cen- sus. It gives a table and diagram showing the distribution of population in accordance with altitude. It is stated that about one-sixth of the people of the country live less than 100 feet above sea level, namely, along the immediate seaboard and in the swampy and alluvial regions of the south, and that more than three- fourths live below 1,000 feet, while below 5,000 fect are found neurly 99 per cent of the inhabitants. At great altitudes there are found only the most trifling proportion. In the area below 500 fect is included nearly all that part of the population which is engaged in manufacturing and in the foreign commerce of the country, and most of that engaged in the culture of cotton, rice and sugar. ‘The interval between the 500 feet and 1,500 feet contours comprisce the greater part of the prairie states aud the grain-producing states of the northwest. East of the 98th merdian the contour of 1,500 fect is practically the upper limit of populetion, all the country lying above that elevation being mountains. The population between 2,000 and 5,000 feet is found mainly on the slope of the great west- ern plains. In this region the belt between 2.000 and'3,000 fect is almost everywhere’ the debatable ground between the arid region of the Cordilleran plateau and the humid region of the Mississippi valley. Above 3,000 feet irri- gation is almost universally necessary for suc- cess in agricultural operations. Between 4,000 and 5,000 feet, and more markedly between 5,000 and 6,000 feet, it will be noticed that the ‘populution is decidedly in excess of the grade or grades below it. ‘This is mainly due to the fact that the densest setile- ment at high altitudes in the Cordilleran re- gion is nt the eastern base of the locky mountains and in the valleys about Great Sait lake, which regions lie between 4,000 and 6.000 fect. Of these the extensive settlements at the base of the mountains in Colorado are mainly between 5,000 and 6,000 feet. Abors 6.000 fect the, population, which is contined, of course. to the Cordilleran region, in almout entirely engaged in the pursuit of mining, and the greater part of it is located in Colorado, New Mexico, Nevada and Californi While the population is increasing nume: cally in all altitudes, ite relative movement is decidedly toward the region of greater alti- tudes, and is most marked in the country lying between 1,000 and 6,000 feet wbove the sea. ‘The density of population is greatest near sen level in that narrow strip along the seaboard which contains our great seuports. The density diminishes gradually and rather uniformly up to 2,000 feet, where the population becomes Tame Crecage ‘slevats the The average elevation of the country, ex- cluding Alaska, is about 2,500 feet. ‘The aver- ¢ elevation ‘at which the inhabitants lived, taking cognizance of their distribution, was 687 feet in 1870; in 1850 it had increased to 739 feet, and in 1890 to 783 feet. eee Genoa to Celebrate Next Year.

STF M BOIL! 8. Annual Report of Inspector Wilkerson— Some Recommendations. ‘The annual report of Mr. J. H. Wilkerson, the inspector of steam boilers, for the fiscal year Just ended has been submitted to the Commis- sioners. It shows that during that period he inspected 547 boilers, 14 of which were for the District. During the year 59 new boilers were erected, 12 condemned for repairs and 5 new ones con demned for being imperfect. No explosions occurred during the yeur. The expense for next year he estimutes at $1,200. past yeur, he says, was the most successful since he as been inspector and the steam plants are in better condition than ever before. For improving the condition of the office he recommends that an order be issued to all por- sons owning or using steam boilers within the District of Columbia requiring them to notify the inspector of steam boilers at least five days prior to the expiration of the certificate of in- spection of their builers.

PERSISTENT RURGLARS, Result of His Investigation Into Prof. G.| Several Attempts Made to Blow Open Brown Goode’s Compiaint. Samuel Fmery’s Safe. The letter of Prof. G. Brown Goude com-| There are two heavy safes in the office of plaining of the delay in procuring conveyance from police headquarters to remove a woman who was burned ata fire at the house of Otto Heideman on the morning of July 5, 1891, has herctofore been printed in Tux Stan. Today Maj. Moore, to whom the letter was referred for investigation, forwarded his report to the Commissioners, together with the reports of the superintendent of the telephone and tele- gtaph system, Sergt. Daley and Dr. Metzerott. ‘The report, however, embraces the reports of the above in substance, and is as follows: MAS. MOORE'S REPORT. Ihave the honor to make the following re- Port upon the communication of Prof. G. Brown Goode, dated the 6th instant: This is the first complaint which seriously involves the efficien¢y of the police ambulance system in cases of emergency, notwithstanding their frequency. I have therefore given care- ful attention to the communication of Prof. Goode, received at these headquarters on the sfernoon mn of the 8th instant. me ‘accompany sa intendent of the Soscceehaad salemensoe: vice—a separate and distinct bureau of the government—it will be seen that although a telephone call for an ambulance was received at his office about 7 clock Sunday morning, the 5th instant, it was not communi- cated to the police department, which has an ambulance service both day and night, “in the interest of humanity. department is therefore in no wise responsible that a proper conveyatice was not furnished for the injured woman. ‘The inclosed report of Sergeant John C. Daloy of the eighth precinct shows, that. Mr. Turner did not “arouse the officers and him- self harness the horse to the patrol wagon.” He delivered his m to the sergeant at the station and assisted in hitching up the wagon, which, within ten minutes of the notice, was on‘its way to the scene of the occurrence. It may here be explained that the patrol driver ired.'to. perform ly from 8 o'clock a.m. until 10 o'clock it 4 compensation of $30 per month, and ailable even were he ft for further service during the intervening hours. it is alleged that Mr. Turner succeeded in getting the patrol wagon at Lanier Heights—a considerable distance from the station and Gar- field Hospital—about 8 o'clock. The aecom- nying communication from Dr. John H. Metzerott, acting resident physician of Garfield Memorial Hospital, shows that the patient was brought to that institution in the patrol wagon shortly before 8 o'clock in the morning, she died within three hours after being admi ted, and that twenty-four hours afterward Ler Temains were buried in potter's field. From the letter of Dr. Metzerott it also ap- Pears that no message by telepiione or othe: Wise from any source previous to the patient's dat the hospital although back to make arrangements. In all cases of emergency police headquarters should be notified, which ‘under eximing are Tangements must necessarily first come through the tire alarm telegraph aud telephone bureau. Fe Was not present, as he is requ duty ‘That, in this particular instance, there was no | f telephonic communication with the Emergency Hospital is, lam informed, due to the fact that this most useful and well-condacted in- stitution was changing its offices from 12th street between E and F streets northwest to 16th street between D and E streets northwest. I fully appreciate the motive of Professor Goode in calling the attention of the Commis- sioners to a matter which #0 nearly affects the public good. They are aware that for the pur- pose of increasing the efficiency of the am- ulance service Congress has been urged, 12 more than one of my annual reports, to appro- priate a reasonable sum ($4,500) for the erec- tion of a suitable stable for those vehicles on « lot already owned by the District atthe second precinct station on 5th street between M and N streets northwest—a much more central loca- tion than the fourth precinct, on E street south- west between 434 and 6th streets, where they - now accommodated for want of room else- where. I beg that this report, in justice to the police department, may be given the same prompt pub- rome dg was accorded to the complaint of Prof. Goo — ae “MECHANISM OF THE VOICE.” Prof. A. Graham Bell Lectures Before ‘Teachers of the Deaf. The convention of the American Association to Promote the Teaching of Speech to the Deaf has been in session for the past few days at Lake George and ends today. Prof. Alexander Graham Bell on Wednesday lectured before the association on “The Mechaniam of the Voice.” Prof. Bell gave methods by which to correct faulty speech. By the use of amechanical con- trivance made of bone he manipulates the tongue of adeaf child in a way to modify a sound produced until finally the desired sound isgiven forth. The child with alooking glass observes the position of the tongueand learns thus to reproduce the sound at will. With th manipulator Dr. Bell changed the sound “ coming from the mouth of a deaf boy, to the sound “ng.” ‘This he did by pushing the tongue back. Iu like manner, by manipulation, sound “th” was changed to ‘“s,"" and “a” to “sh,” &c. Dr. Hell maintaine that intelligible speech shonld be aimed at rather than ideally perfect speech. He further claims that intelligible specch is not dependent upon perfect vowel position. He illustrated by speaking several sentences, using but a single vowel sound, in- telligibility being produced by the consonants. L.E.

Their insecure condition is the result of the work of burglars, the second safe being damaged night before last. Mr. Emery's office has been visited by thieves more than any other place during the past few years, and, although no large amount of money has ever been secured, several times at- tempts have been made upon the safe. About two years ago safe blowers effected an entrance to the office and blew open the eafe, tearing it in such a manner that it was almost imposmible to repair the damage. At that time only a small amount of money was secured. A few months ago the office was entered and holes were drilled in the safe, which was pur- el to replace the old one, but the burglars evidently became frightened and left before they had time to use an explosive. THE LATEST EFFORT. Wednesday evening the office was locked and barred and left secure when the last employe went ont, but in the morning the key to the front door latch would not work.

It was then discovered that the back window had been forced open, and when the office was reached broken pieces of the safe were on the floor. New holes had been cut in the safe door near the lock and the explosive used worked with complete success, for the door was blown ‘open and the contents of the safe exposed. The burglars no doubt expected to make a good haul, but in this they were mistaken, for the only money kept in the safe were the pen- nies left over at the end of the day's business and there were only 43 of them. The burglars took them. None of the burglars’ tools were left behind, nor did they leave anything that would lead to top of the safe their capture.
