2 LISTED AS IDIOT IF YOU GET GAY, SAYS CENSUS MAN Supervisor Farmer Granted Five Days More for Work by Director Durand SHOWS FORCE IS TOO SMALL Population Increased Too Great for Number of Men ir the Field Bert Jj. Farmer, supervisor of the census for Los Angeles, yesterday an nounced the receipt of a telegram from the census bureau at Washington granting five days additional time for • the completion of the count In this city. .The allowance was made by K. Dana Durand, director of the census, as a result of representations by Sir. Farmer regarding the extraordinary growth ■which Los Angeles has had during the pMt ten years, which made it Impossi ble to obtain a full count of the inhab itants in fifteen days with the limited force of enumerators which the depart ment allowed. If only 100,000 had been added to the population of Los Angeles since the last census, instead of double that number, the force of enumerators al lotti il to the city would have ben surft cient t<> have made a thorough canvass ■within the time limit, but when it is realised thai to the city of 1900, with its 100000 population, another with twice number has been added, it will be understood why the bureau's estimate of the number of enumerators neces sary for the task was insufficient. j;mkm)s xnta "Early in the week, in a letter to the director of the census. I told him that it w kl be Impossible for us to Complete the count in the time specified under the .-xisiiiig conditions, and re* quested an extension of time, which I have been sure would be granted us, al though we have been working just as hard as if we would be able to say ■Done' at 12 o'clock tonight," said -Mr. Farmer last night "In the additional live days granted us, closing Thursday Bight at midnight, we will be able to make sure that no one escapes us, and it will be a» industrious and worthy person who dodges the enumerators on tins last leg of the count "Enumerators will be instructed not 1,, i,,.. time witli persons who refuse, them Information hereafter, as we have found that there are very few who will not meet us fairly. To save lime in the last few "lays of the count these per sons will be listed as idiots incapable of answering questions. This is in ac cord with the census regulations, and saves the time of the enumerators, .•;ii.l besides lias the merit of not losing any names for the count." TO KBBF OI'KN The chamber of commerce is keping open until late every night, and will be open all day today for the accommoda tion of tbOBO u!in have not been inter vlewed by the enumerators. Several clerks are kept busy during the day, assisting those who come in to 1111 out the census blanks, besides which tele phone calls are constantly received from flrms employing large numbers of persons for blanks to be sent to their offices, so that none of their employes would be overlooked. One of the Broadway stores telephoned In three times yesterday for blanks, finding a surprisingly large number among its employes who had not been reached by the enumerators.

RAS DID—TOO LATE As Swapper, Jimmy Makes An cient King of the Jews Look Like a Dub When little Jimmy Duffy put his name down in the great register at the county jail yesterday for thirty days' board and lodging he had two legs. When Deputy Sheriff Nolan made the rounds a few minutes later and peaked into his cell Jimmy was supported by only one pin. "What the !" ejacu lated Nolan, studying the man care fully. "Where's your other prop?" "Mortgaged me timber fer a chunk of tobac," growled Jimmy surlily. "Here, here, that won't do," retorted Nolan severely. "We can't work you on the road on one leg." "I know yer can't," grinned Jimmy. '"'That's Just why I traded." A search was instituted for Duffy's prop. They traced it to the oell next door, where a shrewd little Pole had ed the leg to a little (irrninn for his coat. The German in turn had traded for a thicker mat with a He brew, who had swapped his Bhoes. From the Hebrew the leg had traveled around the corner and Into another tier of cells, where it had d Into thi- possession of a Greek, who Bpent a pair of pants for it. The Greek had loaned it for inspection to an Italian across the way, who prompt ly took advantage of the Greek's child like simplicity and slipped the pt< timber to an Irishman. The latter be gan to bounce it off the head of his negro cellmate, "Ras" Brock. Only the blip k man's howls of pain led to the discovery of Duffy's leg. As a consequence, Huffy goes to work Monday on both pins, while the Pole is minus iiis tobacco, the German his coat, tin Hebrew his shoes, the Greek la pnntlo:-s and a badly frightened coon is nursing s very sore bead, with only the consolation that his Irish cellmate is on bread and water for several days to conic. "That was the biggest mixup we've bad here for a long time." said Nolan. "I raced around that Jail for an hour tracing that artificial leg. if we hadn't found it Duffy's stay here would have been one lons sweet vacation," TO FLY THEIR BLOOMIN' 'EADS HOFF FOR $50000 LONDON, April 30.—Great Britain will be the scene of another competi tion for a prize of $50,000.

LOS ANGELES HERVLD: SIN DAY MORNING, *MAY 1, 1910- GETS MEDAL BY DESIGN; ADDRESS BY MISTAKE King Victor Emmanuel Saves Sit uation as Gen. Woodford Trembles in Shoes ROME, April 30.—A little incident connected with the delivery by (Jen, Stewart 1,. Woodford of the Hudson- Fulton medal and embossed address to King- Victor Emmanuel last Monday has just come to light. When General Woodford asked Mr. Lelshman, the American ambassador, to arrange for an audience with the king for the presentation of the testi monials Mr. Lelshman thought the king might object to the passage in the address which read: "In the spiritual relations which connect a large number of our people with their religious head in Rome," which was an open allusion to the pope. Asked if he would not consent to suppress this passage General Wood ford declared he did not feel authorized to cut down an address bearing the Signatures of such men as Andrew Car negie. Joseph H. Choate, Gen. Freder ick I>. ('.rant and J. P. Morgan. Therefore it was decided to present it to the kins. When the time for the audience ar rived General Woodford was unable to find the medal. He was compelled, how ever, to k" ep the appointment, and proceeded to the Quirinal, leaving or ders for a search to be made for the medal and that it be rushed to him when it was found. Just as he was entering the presence of the king a parcel was shoved into the hand of General Woodford. Tear- Ing off the wrapping he found the medal, but was horrified to find the address in the package. n was Impossible to conceal the ease containing the document, as it was too large to fit in his pocket. The situa tion was an embarrassing one. but Gen eral Woodford presented both the med al ana tn» address. King Victor Emmanuel, however, soon allayed General Woodford's dis comfiture, for, after turning over the Batln leaves of the address, he de clared that he was delighted with it and would acknowledge its receipt in a letter to Ambassador Lelshman.
