The Questions That Wiii Be Asked Every Citizen. "How old are you? Are you married, single, widowed or divorced? Is the house you live iD your owr; and, if so, is it mortgaged or fret? What ? ? j i is your occupauou, sou uuw ujauj months out of the year are you employed? These are some of the pointed personal questions which will be asked of Chicago people during the taking of the twelfth census of the United States, which will begin June 1 and end June 15, 1900. The year 1900 and 1901 will conslitute the grestest census-taking era in the history of the world. Besides this country fourteen of the principal European countries are to "count noses," but the census of the United States is to be more extensive than that of any other nation. The last census cost 811,271,500, and more than sixty thousand men were employed in making it. This census will be even a greater tffjrt. The law requires that the census shall be taken between June 1 and June 15. As two of these days fall oa Sunday, but thirteen working days are left. The director of the twelfth census is William P. Merriam, former governor of Minnesota. Several objectionable questions which were asked of citizens by census enumerators ten years ago will be omitted this time. For example, persons suffering from any chronic disease will not be required to disclose that fact. The answers given heretofore utterly valueless from a statistical standpoint. These are the questions which you will be called upon to answer this yeai: 1 Surname, Christian name, initial. 2 Residence, street, number of house. 3 Relationship of each member of the head of the family. . 4 Color or race. 5 Sex. 6 Age at last birthday. 7 Day, month and year when born. 8 Are you single, married, widow, widower or divorced? 9 Number of years married. 10 How many children. 11 Number of children living. 12 Sex of these children. 13 Where were you born? If in the United States give state or territory; if of foreign birth, give name of the country only. 14 Where was 3 our father born? Your mother? (Some conditions as the foregoing.) 15 If of foreign birth, when did yon come to the United Stated 16 How many years have you resided in the United States? 17 Have you been naturalized? How many years since you became a citizen? 18 What is your occupatien, trade profession? (This question applies to persons 10 years of age or over.) 19 How many months duiing the 1 year are you employed? I 20 How many months have you attended school? 21 Can you read? 22 Can you write? 23 G.ve the main facts concerning your education. 21 Do you own the house in which you live? ^ 25 Do you rent the house in which you live? 26 If you own the house, is it free or mortgaged? (The same question applies to farms ) ? AN ULTIMATUM. 1 \ I 1 United States Makes Peremptory Call ( on Turkey for Payment. Constantinople, April 27.?The 1 American note handed to the Turk- I ish minister of foreign affairs, Tewfik 1 Pasha, on Tuesday, is couched in peremtoiy terms, demanding irnme- 1 diate payment of the indemnity several times promised to Minister Strauss by the sultan. The note does not fix a time limit for an t answer, but its tenor is not far from i the character of an ultimatum. It 6 has produced a great impression s upon the porte which, however, i shows no disposition to modify the ' attitude hitherto maintained, namely, repudiating the responsibility and seeking to diminish the impoitance of the matter. It is presumed that the porte's reply will be in this sens*; < aod hence it is feared the United s States government will be obliged to c take steps to enforce its demands. j Turkey's dtcision to send an offi- s cer to America to study naval con- 1 struction is interpreted to be another t sop. It is the revival of an old pro- t ject ti buy a cruiser in the United 1 States in the price of which the in- t demnity shall be included, so that i the porte will be at liberty to say it \ J*:**...

Thi American government has already categorically refused such a com promise, which would mem pro longed negotiations and the dragging out of the matter indefinitely t< which the United States will no listen. As regards the indemnity it is the nature of a debt of honor If the porte wan's to buy a cruiser that is a matter in no way connectec with the indemnity. The ported reply to the last col lective note on the subject of dutie: has not been made; and the embas sies are exchanging views in regarc to the terms on which to consent t< an increase of duty. It is though that before the beginning of negotia tions the embassies will invite th< porte to abolish ranaoms and mea sures in violation of treaties. OBITUARY. Irvin A. Caughman, son of Geo. E Caughman and wife Maria A. wai born July 23, 1859, and died Marcl 3, 1900, age 40 year9, 7 months anc 1U days. He was married to Jane R. E Keisler, July 5, 1862 This unior was blessed with 8 children, 5 soni and 3 daughter?, all liviDg. He be came a member of the church ii infancy by the rite of holy baptism In early youth he ratified his baptis mal vow by the act cf confirmation He was a faithful and consistan member of Cedar Grove E. L Church until death. He sufferec much during his late illnes, but bori it with cheeifulness and Chri&tiai fortitude. He plowed and made pro vision for his family as long as h< lived, and when he saw that he mus die he was peifectly composed an( willing to leave it all in the hands o his Lord and Master. Thus a de voted husband, a loving father, i good citizen and an active member o the church has passed beyond th< river of death. His funeral servicei were conducted by Rev. E. L. Ly brand, assisted by Rev. W. H. Roof Why She Loved Him So. The memoirs of Jules Massenet bring up aa incident of his court ship told by Coqielin. It seems that when Liez1, Sgambati and Massenet were studiDg together in Rome they all became fascinated with the daughter of an aristocratic Frenchman. The trio spent their 3pare time composing and playing themes to the obj-ct of their affections. One evening the young wo man showed marked favor to Masse net, and he proposed to her after having asked her father's consent. He followed her to Paris in a few zlays, where he was accepted by her, md the marriage soon took place. One day Massenet said to his bride before a party of friends: "My dear, do you remember the lay you first showed me that you preferred me to Sgambati and L:sz'T' "Yes." "Well, do you know, besides provng to me that you loved me it also *ave me great j iy to know that you relieved I played so well, even ex jelling the others!" "Ob, but it wasi/t thai!'* answered lis wife quickly. "It was because pou played so badly that my love ffent out to you." It is said that the great composer lever referred to the incident again.

To the Editor of the Dispatch: , "Boys will be boys," as the old D j sayiog goes, it does not matter j. whether they are brought up these days, or fifty years ago. Times are changed from what they were when som8 of U3 were boys, and j we cannot see things now as we did then. Why, we used to take in the whole country by sections. Oa Sudk lay, we would gather at some big lole on Sivie creek generally at what j was known as Thompson's water gap. Chat was a great summer resort for ( the boys and young men to go in washing with each other. Some times we would get up a little raDgle and a fisticuff, but it would soon pass off and all would be on good terms again and engage in 60me of the little innocent games we would play. When we got tired of the water , we would go out in the old sand field s 0 j about one hundred yards from the I creek, and form a line for leap-frog back to the hole of water, and the one that got to the bank first had to t stand stooped over for all of the , others to leap over into the water until the last one, then he had to j push the fellow in and fall in himself. And again we would dive to see ! nja: fVio hoof tho | *? U?VU II UU VUV V V> } vuv j one that could hold his breath and {. | stay under the water the longest was I considered the beat. It is a wonder i j to me now that some of us are not 3 holding our breath yet, 3 Oa a certain Sunday evening we were there, about eight of us, and an 3; angry looking cloud was rising in J the west; we were all out in the j | bottoms looking for watermelons; j; had left all of our duds at the creek _ | and some one slipped up there and i j drew one of the smaller boy's pants f i into mine, and we went and dressed * j # a j in such haste that I did not notice it. 3; The cloud burst upon us before we j could get to the old barn. It was a i sight to behold to see little Sim go| ing to the barn jumping about three | corn rows at a time with his hat in | his hand and about one third of his I clothes on, some in his hand and the ' ) others he did not know where. 1 j Sim was very much down hearted '! about the loss of his pants, and really 1 j he was an ol j et of pity, but we ; lauerhed at him anv wav. The sincle I o ? mi W O" 1 garment be bad on was as wet as two drowned rats and stuck to his i very slender legs like a brother. We ; were all Baptist, but did not know j whether we were hard shell or soft j shell. Sim said he bad no shell at ' all. j He cursed and we discussed tl e ; matter and soon it was found that I i j had on the missing pants, but we ; could not make Sim believe but what | it was done on purpose. I disrobed j there in the barn and gave him his | pants and when he got right he was the dryest looking one in the crowd. It was Dot long before the sun shone out again and we were going to renew our attack on the watermelons. And let me say just heie we were not very particular whose melons they were we found, they were the same as if we had a bench : warrant for them and we took what we wanted, green or ripe, not that we wanted to harm any one but tie j violent exeicise we had taken in trying to get to the barn before the rain, had digested the contents of our stomachs and we were looking for I i refreshments. ! We did not get very fir before we came to John Dean's pasture and saw , I some yearling calves in there. , One of the boys said he would ride a yearling if we would catch it. So we told him to sit down and rest and we would overtake one of them some way, and assist him all ; we could iu having a ride. It was j but a short while till we had a short ! bull hemmed iu s corner and two of us grabbed him by the tai', and he started across the opening with us, but we gradually slowed him down until he came to a stand still, and I was very glad for when he started with us we went about ten feet at a jjmp. We all got hold on the bull Some I bad him by the horns, but I kept i the tail bold for I thought that would be the saf<st place, end we got j D^n up on the horned horse, but he ? ?? I IWII !>! ! Ill II II I was so sullen he woul 1 Dot move an inch. We trird to push him along, but there was not much fun in push ing that djuc'd beef when it was not the least inclined to exert its own power. Some one said kick him and John Wilks sent Lis number nine into him; but it was of no evuii. Ite bowed up Lis back and stood with 1 ea<l down apparently very well satisfied. Some one told me to twist his tail and that would make l.im move off. I gave it a yank and the first bound he made be j iked Dm from under his hat and away they went. Such a dust they stirred up, and the bellowing of the bull brought all the cattle to the scene. We got Dan's hat andgot outof thepaslure I had told the boys Daniel would laktcare of himself? he had rode yearlings before, but the animal ran undtr o ' a persimmon tree and drug him c ff. He did not have time to get up and climb the tree for the infuriated animals were in clo9e pursuit, he thought it best to lie as close to the groin d as poscible to avoid their borne, but one old cow bellowed over him and tried to horn him, but did no harm, only tore his coat pocket cff, and went off with his handkerchief on her horn and the balance of the cattle followed her. When Dan got back he was the dirtist boy I ever saw. He looked like he had slept in a coal car for a week, and about as mad as I want to see a boy. His coat was badly torn and his handkerchief gone, besides the gable end of his new straw hat being stamped out by some of the cattle. He said there was not much fun in riding yearlings in warm weather as some ueonle L I thought. About that time old Brother Dean was looking up his cows and we began to look for the road heme.
