AS soon as an enumerator is through with
the district assigned to him Mr.. Wood
places him in another district which has
| been subdivided for this purpose. In this
manner the work is greatly facilitated.
The Fifth ward was divided into twelve dis
tricts, while the seventh was cut up into
only three districts. Mr.. Wood said last
night that he thought the Seventh ward
would show greater number of inhabit-
ants than any of the wards. He is placing
| several more enumerators into that ward as
quick as they are relieved from other dis
tricts, but does not think that the ward will
| be finished to-day.
The work is progressing very satisfacto-
rily. The enumerators as a whole are a
| bright lot of men, and have done good work
so far. few errors were made at the start,
but from the nature of the work such
things wore expected.
