NEARLY HALF MEM 111 STATE SINGLE The Census for Indiana Also Shows 105 Males to 100 Females. Figures.

. . (Palladium Special) WASHINGTON. June 13 The census bureau today issued a statement regarding: the composition and characteristics of the population of Indiana, as reported at the thirteenth decennial census. It 'shows that of the total population of Indiana, 2,130.088, or 98.9 per cent., are native whites of native parentege; 350,551 are native whites of foreign or mixed parentage; 159,322, or 5.9 per cent., are foreign born white, and 60,320, or 2,2 percent., are negroes. The corresponding percentages In 1900 were 77.6, 14.5, 5.6 and 2.3 respectively, the comparison indicating a slight increase in the relative importance of the native whites of native parentage. In most of the counties the proportion of whites of foreign birth or of foreign or mixed parentage is small. There is, however, one county Lake in which the foreign born whites constitute more than one-fourth odf the total population, and six counties in which the native whites of foreign or mixed parentage exceed that proportion. Corresponding Proportions. Of the urban population 67.8 per cent, are native whites of native par- j entage, of the rural population 87 per cent. The corresponding proportion for native whites of foreign or mixed parentage is 18.2 and 9.1 per cent., respectively. The percentage of foreign born whites is 9.7 in the urban population and 3.1 in the rural; the percentage of negroes is 4.2 per cent in the urban and 0.8 in the rural. In the total population of the state there are 1,383,295 males and 1,317,581 females or 105 males to each 100 female. In 1900 the ratio was 104.0 to 100. Of the total native population born In the United States, 79.9 per cent, were born in Indiana and 20.1 per cent. In other states. Germans in the Lead. The report shows that persons born outside the state constitute a much larger proportion of the native population in urban than in rural communities. Of the foreign born white population of Indiana, persons born in eGrmany represent 39 per cent., Hungary, 9; Austria, 7.4; Ireland, 7.1; England, 6.1; Russia, 6; Italy, 4.3; Canada, 3.6; Sweden, 3.2; Scotland, 2.1, and all other countries, 11.8. Ten and two-tenths per cent, of the total population of Indiana are children under five years of age, 19.3 per cent, are from five to fourteen year, inclusive, 18.9 are from fifteen to twentyfour, 28.9 per cent, are from twentyfive to forty-four and 22.5 per cent, are forty-five years of age and over. The urban populatioiTshows a smaller proportion of children than the rural and a larger proportion of persons in: the prime of life. Immigration to the city explains this at least in part. Percentage of School Attendance. The total number of persons of school age that is from six to twenty years, inclusive is " 9,777.889, of whom 513,623 of 66 per cent, attended school. In addition to these 5,390 persons under six and 10,729 of twentyone and over attended school. For boys from six to twenty, the percentage of school attendance was 65.9, as compared with 66.2 girls. According to the report there are 66,213 illiterates in the state, representing 3.1 per cent, population, ten years of age and over, as compared with 4.6 per cent in 1900. The per cent of : illiteracy is 11.7 among foreign born whites, 2.1 among native whites and 13.7 among negroes. In the, population, fifteen years of age and over,-34 per cent, of the males are single and 26.2 of the females. The percentages of married persons is 59.8 for males and 62.3 for females, and jthe percentage of widowed 5.1 and 10.4, respectively. The perWOMEN, AVOID - OPERATIONS Many Unsuccessful And ; Worse Suffering Often Follows. Mrs. Rock's Case v A Warning.

Approaching Baldness

May be Checked by Using Herpicide . The above expression is one which is used frequently in connection with hair preparations. Just exactly what is meant by it in each instance is a question. Baldness is not a disease and hence, does not permit of a cure. It is a result invariably to be traced to the dandruff germ and if the condition has become chronic, that is, if there is a complete atrophy of the hair follicles, a "cure" is absolutely impossible. Approaching baldness, seen in falling hair, may always be checked and if the hair follicles are not atrophied the hair may be induced again to grow. This is accomplished by regular applications of Newbro's Herpicide which cleanses the scalp and kills the dandruff germ. The destruction of the germ does away with the accumulations of scarf skin and thus eliminates the most common enemy to beautiful hair. Sofe, glossy, fluffy hair cannot grow on a scalp infested with dandruff any more than a delicate plant can grow on an nsh heap. The scalp must be kept clean and free from dandruff. The best remedy for doing this is Newbro's Herpicide which receives the highest endorsements from professional men, the stage and the best people everywhere. Applications obtained at all firstclaBS barber shops and hair dressing parlors. Address The Herpicide Co., Dept. R., Detroit, Mich., enclosing 10c in postage or silver for sample and booklet. A. G. LuHen & Co., Special Agents. Newbro's Herpicide in 50c and $1.00 sizes is sold by all dealers who guarantee it to do all that is claimed. If you are not satisfied your money will be refunded. centage of divorce, 0.8 and 0.9 respectively, are believed to be too small because of the probability that many divorced persons classed themselves as single or widowed. Total Number of Dwellings. The total number of dwellings in Indiana, according to the census enumerators is 631,554, and the total number of families 654,881, indicating that in very few cases does more than one family occupy a dwelling. The average number of persons living in each dwelling is 4.3, and the average number of members of an Indiana family is 4.1, according to the report. When your child has whooping cough be careful to keep the cough loose and expectoration easy by giving Chamberlain's Cough .Remedy as may be required. This remedy will also liquify the tough mucus and make it easier to expectorate. It has been used successfully in many epidemics and is safe and sure. For sale by all dealers. Amusements THEATRICAL CALENDAR At The Murray. Lewis-Oliver Stock company, indefinite. "On The Stroke of Twelve." The scenes of the play are laid in England, and there is an excellent plot running throughout the entire piece, intermingled with comedy and pathos. At times the plot borders on the sensational order, but it is always within the bounds of probability. The cast is a large one, and is especially suited to the members of the Lewis and Oliver Players. The play is one of the best in the repertoire of the company, and was the feature during their long run in St. Paul. Then again the play offers wonderful advantages in the way of a scenic production, which has been carefully looked after. The play will be the offering for the last half, with a special matinee on Saturday. There is to be only one performance every evening during the summer season at the Murray. "The Devil," the great psychological drama, is the underlined attraction for the first half of next week. The Snail. The slowest creatures in creation are snails and certain small beetles. Some of them habitually move only a foot or two In an hour, but this slowness Is partly due to the fact that they remain motionless at intervals. By measuring the distances covered by snails when they were kept going constantly it has been found that tbe maximum speed of a good healthy snail is fire and a half feet an hour. Plenty of Exercise.

MISS HILL

No Truth in Rumor that She Will Decline Election to the School Board. Class Play Demonstrates Inadequacy of High School Stage.

BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. There is a rumor current that Miss Hill will not accept the election to the scboolboard if it is tendered her. This is not true. Miss Hill will accept. This is only referred to at this time on account of several inquiries receivec by the different members of the ward committees appointed at the lveeting last week and which will meet again on Saturday afternoon at four o'clock in the lecture-room of the Mor-nsson-Reeves library. As stated here before a time or two, three nominations were made at the last session of the city council for the two vacancies on the school-board caused by the expiration and resigna tion, the nominations were were closed : and the election carried over until the next meeting which will be held on Monday evening, June 17th. The withdrawal of Mr. Charles Jordan, one of the nominees, in favor of Miss Hill this being made at Mr. Jordan's own instance and not at the suggestion or request of any other candi date's friends makes the election on the two nominees, Miss Hill and Mr. Nusbaum. Miss Hill, upon being interviewed with reference to the rumour that she would not accept stated that she would not have permitted her name to have been used at this juncture if she had not expected to accept the appointment if tendered her. The inadequacy of the stage in the auditorium of the high school building was demonstrated again on Tuesday evening when the seniors gave their class play. The interest in the theatre is constantly increasing. Drama leagues and clubs for the Fludy of the drama in its varying phases are being organized from Podunkville to the metropolises. The discussion of the theater as an artistic, moral and ethical agent is being heard from "press and pulpit." No publication, unless it is a purely technical one or of a religious character, is without its current commentary of the theater. Most of the monthly publications are filled with illustrations of its representatives. Almost all colleges now nave their dramatic clubs and class plays. The public schools also have their organizations devoted to the study and practice if it could so be put of the drama. Auditoriums with more commodious stage room are being constructed. It seems too bad, therefore, that the new high school building In this city admirable as it is in all other aspects of its interior should not have a better stage. It seems strange, too, that this was i;ot arranged for at the time the building was erected. That was the time, naturally, for consideration to be given this phase of the architectural interior and the public had expected a stage Sited out with all the theatrical modern appliances in so far as they could ho included in a building of this sort. Surprise was great, therefore, when the present stage was less in extent and accommodations than the one in the old, now the Garfield, building. Whether or not this could be remedied now is a question although it has been said how authoritatively is not known to the writer; that it might be extended to the rear.

WILL ACCEPT

In any event it is inadequate for graduation purposes as shown by the arrangements for the commencement in the Coliseum. And that it is difficult for dramatic presentations is obvious. There are no tfage entrances, the curtain is extraneous and awkward to manage and the stage itself is too shallow. Altogether this part of the auditorium is not a success. Where, by the bye, is the bit of ivy frcm a famous English abbey presented by Mrs. James M. Leech, of Louisville. Kentucky, to the city for plant-

ihere of the state Federation of Clubs? It is to be hoped that the rigors of j tiie two past winters have not killed It. Whether or not it is English ivy is unknown to the writer. But if it is the latter it is to be feared that it may not have survived, since very little English ivy grows in this country. Especially in the West. It is the truth, however, that several fine examples of this vine have been grown in Richmond, among them one on the north side of the Whitridge residence on South Eighth street, killed by the severity of the weather a few years ago, and one, still intact, on the south of the adjoining grounds of Mr. Harry Mather. A large vine of this character which completely covered the north side of the Clayton Hunt house on south Ninth street, was also killed by a cold winter and if there are other big vines of this description in town they are unknown. Nothing makes a town so pictures que as vine covered buildings. It softens hard architectural outlines. It veils ugly contours. Gracefully swathes bald surfaces. Lindley Hall, Earlham, and architecturally anomalous, is losing its unattrtctiveness and taking on character through the vine that is gradually cov ering its walls. Why the vine is not more universally used as an adjunct to architectural The Effects T IHAT INFANTS are peculiarly

preparations, all of which are narcotic, is well known. Lven in the smallest doses, if continued, these opiates cause changes in tbe func

tions and growth of the cells which are likely to become permanent, causifcg imbecility, mental perversion, a craving; for alcohol or narcotics in later life. Nervous diseases, such as intractable nervous dyspepsia and lack of staying powers are a result of dosing with opiates or narcotics to keep children quiet in their infancy. The rule among physicians is that children should ner receive opiates in the smallest doses for more than a day at a time, and only then if unavoidable. The administration of Anodynes, Drops, Cordials, Soothing Syrups and other narcotics to children by any but a physician cannot be too strongly decried, and the druggist should not be v. party to it. Children who are ill need the attention of a physician, and it is nothing less than a crime to dose them willfully with narcotics.

Try Skin Absorption Instead of Cosmetics

(From the Woman Militant.) The constant use of rouge and powder invites a coarsened, roughened condition of the skin, eruptions, enlarged pores and wrinkles If you've learned this from experience, suppose you quit cosmetics and try what I recommend. Ask your druggist for an ounce of ordinary mercolized wax and begin usire this tonight. Apply like cold cream i washing it off in the morning. Keep this up for a week or two. The wax will literally absorb the coarse, colorless or blemished top skin, but so gradually as not to discommode you at all. Just as gradually the clear, velvety naturally-tinted underskin comes to the surface. And mercolized was becomes your everlasting friend. For those wrinkles and large pores. i make a face bath by dissolving an astringent and tonic properties, and beneficial results come quickly, effects, is a mystery, since it is infinitely decorative. In England and on the continent constantly do you see it as a beautifying addition to the landscape. English ivy is hard to grow in this country on account of climatic conditions, but the five-pointed sort that is 6een much in this section is easily cultivated and of rapid growth. And its use for decorative effects on all classes of buildings would cost nothing and add a heavy asset to the attractiveness of any community. Gladstone's Speech For Irving. Gladstone was a great admirer of Blr Henry Irving, and this admiration was shown one day in the house of commons. Irving was under the gallery in the house when suddenly, without apparent reason. Gladstone leaped to his feet and delivered an iropnssioned speech, set off with all the expression and dramatic gesture for which he was so famous. The house seemed surprised. Members looked at one another and murmured, "What Is the old man now up to? They thought it was some deep political game. But a week or two later a friend of Irvine's, encountering Mr. Gladstone, mentioned the actor's visit to the house, and Gladstone eagerly inquired: "What did be think of my speech?

Carlyle Corrected. At a Royal academy dinner in London on one occasiou several artists were expressing their enthusiasm about Titian. Carlyle and Thackeray were among the guests. "Ills glorious coloring is a fact about Titian." said one man. striking the table to give emphasis to the remark. "And his glorious drawing is another fact about Titian r cried another artistAnd so they went on until Carlyle. who bad been listening in silence to tbeir rhapsodies, interrupted them by saying, with a slow deliberation which had Its own Impressive emphasis: "And here I sit, a man made in the image of Cod. who knows nothing about Titian and cares nothing about Titian, and that's another fact about Titian." Thackeray was sipping claret at the moment. He paused and bowed courteously to Carlyle. "Pardon me. he said; "that appears to me to be not a fact about Titian, but a fact, and a lamentable one. about Carlyle."
