The law provides that Council may re-
duce any inequalities in repres entation
that may exist, at least once in every ten
years. At present every ward has three
representatives except the Sixth and
Eighth, the former having five and the
later four. But the Eighth ward has
nearly double the population OF tho
Fifth, but only one more representative.
Mr.. Tracy moved, in order to equalize
this state OF things, that the dividing
line between the Fifth and Sixth wards
be Twenty.fourth street instead oil
Twenty.thiri, US now situated, the cen
tire Of the street being the dividing line
According 10 this change ,i60 OF q
POPULATION was taken off the Sixth and
added to the Fifth, making the popula'
ton Of the former 4,I2i and the later
1929. Aftersomc little discussion Mr.,
Tracy motion prevailed.
Mr.. Caldwell then suggested that to
further euualize matters ne would like to
have s m. lopped of the Eighth ward
and added 10 the Sixth by making the
dividingline ut Thrty.third street, but
as the district contained only lUG people
it was decided that tue change was too
small to make. =.
Mr.. Tracy then moved that thc lines
between the Sixth aud Eighth wards re-
main as they are.
Dir. Caldwell-"I wish, Mr., Tracy
YOU would withdraw that motion:
Mr.. Wheal-rThe difference in the
population between the two wards is 50
small that it is hardly worth while 10
change the lines. Besides the improve
ments in the Eighth ward are all made,
and the new pottery that is going up in
the Sixth win certainly add to its pop
ulation."
The motion was finally carried, Mr'
Caldwell being the only memberot the
committee voting "no." The dividing
lines Of the other wards were allow
to remain, 0g their population was Us
equal us it was possible 10 make theu
without making arbitrary divisions.
The question Of appOrtionment then
came up, hnd on motion each ward was
entitled 10 one representative for every
/ 800 inhabitants, or fraction over fifty.
According 10 this GppOrtionment each
ward will have three representatives
with the exception Of the Eighth, which
vii! have four, making total represent
alton OF twenty-five instead OF twenty
eight under the present aPPortiopment;
As the new superintendent would
leave the Sixth ward without voting
place, the basement, OF Webster school
house was designated as such place,
The committee then instructed the City
Solicitor to draw up an ordinance in
conformity with the action OF The COM
miltec.
The apportionmentmade will be seen
TO be fair and equitable in every III.
stance. In fact any other division could
not have been made without running
around blocks,

When the United States Superintend-
ent Of Repairs aud improvements to
Government Buildings, Mr.. j. Q.
Holmes, and 0veNeer J. n. Todd, went
70 inspect the Custom House and Post
Office building yesterday, with view 10
arranging for the contemplated repairs,
it was found that the work to be done
would necessitate tue removal OF the
PostoiEicc temporarily into other quar-
tiers. This will require action by the
department at Washington, and there
fore, some delay must occur. In the
meantime a craftsman will be sent on
from Washington to make the necessary
drawings for the work.

THE HOLIDAY SEASON.
ono of the Prime Necessities for Proper
Observance.

Observance.
A Christmas, or holiday season, with.
out candy, would be no holiday at all.
With the progress of things in other d.
rections the public demand for some.
thing better than the old.fashioned
candy has kept pace, and u person who
wants to find in Wheeling all the facili-
ties for making his own assortment Of
the most recent kinds and styles Of con-
fections, known to be pure, has only to
20 to George L. bursts, 1917 and 1919
Market street. Mr.. bursts fine candies
are I'LL made in his own establishment,
under the supervision OF m expert
candy maker long employed at Huyler's,
New York. His confectionery made in
his own shops, took the first premium
over all competitors at the last State
Fair, and those familiar with his pro-
ducts know that this verdict was Just.
For fancy packages, and everything
that goes to make confectionery attrac-
tive, Mr.. bursts stock cannot be excel.
led anywhere. His show windows are
the best advertisement he could have,
and person who once gets glance ut
the AIRY OF fine handmade candy there
displayed, or ut the fruit cake and fancy
small cakes, cannot pass by without
purchasing.
He packs goods to be sent by mail or
express or delivered by messenger. In
short, there is not to be found in any
similar establishment anywhere in the
land more complete facilities for supply
ing the best trade for the holidays in his
line to the entire satisfaction aud de-
light of the most exacting buyer, as to
purity and excellence Of quality, variety
OF assortments to select from, nice APP
pearance, neat package and all that goes
to distinguish the elite and recherche
from the common, than at Geo. l..
bursts, 1917 and 1919 Market street,

Death Of W. +. b. Jones.

w. f. B. Jones is dead. After
years of hard work and efficient
practice at his chosen profession Of
law he has been gathered to his
fathers. No man either of profession
al or business character has been bet
ter known throughout this and adj
joining judicial circuit during a
period of 80 years than has w. E. b.
Jones. At his profession he has
risen to prominence rarely attained
by men of this day, never allowing,
as is nowadays common among his
fraternity, politics to mingle itself
with his business, to the detriment of
the latter he attracted general con-
fidence in his ability. He was born
in Annapolis Md. December q, 1928
this making him at his death 50 years
Q months and % days. He removed
when quite young man to the state
of Kentucky, thence soon after COM
ming to Tennessee. When in the
county of Fentress he begun the
practice of law at about the time he
became of age. Little can be
gathered as to the events of his early
life, other than that he had many
and severe obstacles to overcome.
He was twice married and leaves a
large family to morn his loss. Prior
to his death excessive strains upon
his mental strength caused it to give
way and for several weeks
Immediately previous he was totally
oblivious to his surroundings. The
legal profession has lost an intel
lectual giant.

passed through our village Sunday
morning, enroute to Shady Grove to
attend a protracted meeting.
F. M. Womack, Esq, Of Hillsboro,
was circulating among our neighbors
few days ago selling books. We
think he is smitten with some of the
ladies up here, too.
The school at Caney Branch seems
to be on the decline, We think the
teacher has a notion of closing the
term.
Rev. Mr.. Parks held an interesting
meeting at Wilson's Chapel last
week.
Wonder if the correspondent at
Faulkner Springs can tell us some
thing more about Sam Jones.
We attended church at Shady
Grove Sunday, and if any one knows
a young lady that wants to marry
widOwer, send them there.
William Holmes and wife, and lit
tie neice, Sallie Roach, are visiting
in Coffee county this week.
