a series on events in the life of Christ,
and is intended to reproduce as faithfully

people of Palestine at the time ofChrist's
coming. Mr.. Hale has admirable skill
in apprehending and presenting the
historical aspects of any event or time,
and the series promises to be one quite re-
markable interest and valae. "Studias

throughly interesting article, which des-
cribes from close and accurate information

paper, which is the first of series, being
given largely to what are known as the

THAT INSURANCE LICENSE.
What the Committee will Recommend in
the Way OFFS N ew Bill

What the Committee will Recommend in
the Way ola New Bill
For some days past the Committee on
Counties, Districts and Municipal Cor
porations of the House. has been busily
engaged in considering the petition pre-
sented by Mr.. Hubbard IRON q large
number OF Wheeling's most influential
citizens, asking for the repeal OF section
so Of chapter AZ Of the acts OF 1879, under
which act the City Council was enabled
to levy a tax OF $50 per company on
each foreign insurance company in
the city. The trouble, the lobby
ing, and general rumpus kicked up in
Wheeling when that license tax was
adopted in an ordinance by Council is
still remembered by large portion OF
our readers. During the sessions OF the
committee. theinsuranceme have been
before it; also gentlemen who are inter
ested in the home companies, and de-
sire the license enforced, they of course
being very much interested in the tax OF
$50. The insurance men have had their
lawyers, Col. White being the chief,
while Hon. Alfred Caldwell, who
was member OF the Council,
that passed the ordinance, being against
him. The sessions oil the committee
have been very interesting, it is said,
and at last the matter has been decided
and the committee made up its report,
which will be submitted, it is thought,
this morning. A change has been made
which is as follows:
At present the Objectionable feature
reads, "The Council shall further have
authority to assess by ordinance and COL
lect an annual license on each agency
OF any foreign insurance company doing
business within the city,"
The re-enactment and amendment
takes away this wholesale power from
the city and restricts it to this: The city
may levy tax OF one-half OF one per
cent. on the gross amount OF premiums
the city cannot tax any higher than that
to do this Council may take steps to
ascertain what that gross amount is and
provide for the collection of the same.
According to the Auditors books this
would in only case or two reach $50.
