The appli- cants are about equally divided among men and women. Many of the appiications are curiosities as Ifterary productions One of the applicants writes: “I bain't much of a speller, but I can figger good so as to make up staytistioks.” Others claim to be expert linguists in from two to half a dozen languages, and profess to numerous special qualifieations that would make them vaiuable as enum- erators. There are also many personal applica- tions, but it is particularly desired by the census bureau that all applications should be made in writing. The only work that will be required of the enumerators will be to take the census of the people. Speciai’ ists will be employed for statistical work, |and these will be assigned to the differ- ent districts from the head office in Washington. i No oppointments of enumerators will be be made much before the latter part of February. Superintendent €. L. Saunders’ present visit to Washington is largely to confer with the Gensus bureau relative to the work, and the second. distriet head- quarters jn the federal building. will besin ‘to put om a lively appearshoe after his return from Washington. PRISONER PAYS FINE FOR USING NAUGHTY LANGUAGE Defendant, Rubenstein, Says it Was Worth the Money to Apply Ade jeetive to Ome Jomiwch. It was a very, very naughty name that Charles Rubenstein called Wolf Jonisch on that quarreisome night at a lodge meeting in Washington hal. There was a fuss, a fight and then the justice court cut a figure. “When you say that; smile,”” said Judge George C. Cockrell, handing down ‘his decision to the mercurial Rubenstein. “It is the judgment of this eourt that yeu shall pay a fine of §l and the costs of this ction. Defendant says it was worth the money, but he wishes to give notice of sppeal” replied the interprater. It must have been one mighty row. ac- cording to the testimony sdduced in J . Cockrell's court, in this case of the Btate- of Nebraska against Charfes Rubenstein, charged with dlsrupting. the pesce by the careless use of a familiar American idtom. Rubenstein was -in. attandance -4t the lodge meeting and- rose to take on to a rullng of the chair. ‘“Wolf ro- marked aside that Rubensteln wae getting into the discussion without proper atthority | and the trouble started.
