In the statistics of the last official census the number of foreign born males over 21 years of age invariably equaled one-half the total foreign born population. Estimated Number. Assuming that the number obtaining naturalization papers during the period since the last census gave offi ,; >1 statistics is 2 per cent, the number of Germans will be between 325.000 and 350,000 and the number of Austro-Hungarians slightly in excess of 1,000,000. The residents giving Austria or Hungary as their place of birth comprise a variet yof races including Poles, T.ithunians, Stovacks and some Germans.

According to the last census, the greatest number of persons of German birth resided in Illinois, Wisconsin, Ohio, Now York, Pennsylvania, Missouri, Indiana and Michigan. New York had the greatest num Der, loiiowed Dy Uhio and Wisconsin. Pennsylvania led all the other States in the number of Austrians and Hungarians. New York and Illinois followed, the number in other States being small in comparison. DURANT MEASURE PASSES SENATE Physician's Prescription Required Provision for Beer is Voted Down. End Long Debate.

When this had been somewhat I modified as to minor details, the Bon! ham amendment was then indefiniteh ; postponed by a vote of 2d to 15, but not until Senator Hughes Qf Unio. had made another fruitless effort to have it amended so as to provide fo the monthly allotment of 18 pints of beer.

MOTOR CRAFT TO HUNT SUBMARINES United States Government Plans to Commander Boats to Protect Coast. Washington, Feb. 13.?Plans are understood to be ready at the. Navy Department to assemble at various points along the Atlantic coast in case of war, 2,500 or more motor boats to aid in operations against submarines. Naval militia could be used largely to man these little vessels. Practically all of the larger motor craft in the bays, rivers and sounds would be "commandered" as rapidly as desired. Contracts of several kinds have been tentatively prepared for taking over private motor craft for government use. In some cases the boats would be purchased, in others they would be leased, and in still others they would be accepted as gifts. It is said also that, if war should come, the navy department would at once begin the construction of a big mosquito fleet of specially-designed power boats of wood, fifty feet or more in length and carrying guns of six workers for battleship and cruiser inches diameter or less, to be used in order not to lessen the supply of steel construction.
