CENSUS
of Shinnston and Suburbs
Shows More Than Enough
for Charter Requirement.

SUBMISSION, Nov. 27.-The cen-
sus has been taken of the town OF
Shinnston and suburbs and the result
is as follows: Shinnston proper,
1893; West Shinnston, not including
Drain Hill, 1915; East Shinnston,
1875; total. 2069. or Just SO more
people than required on which TO
make application for city charter.
There is much sentiment in favor
Of appealing to the next legislature
for charter that will embrace the
above population and put Shinnst0n
on the map as a thriving little city
The present charter is antiquated
and altogether inadequate.

Nov. 27-Thirty bodies from the
British battleship, Bulwark, we're
recovered from the river Thames to-
day. The Bulwark was blown up OF

the result Of an internal explosion.
Most of the bodies so far received
are mutilated almost beyond identifi-
cation. Many pathetic scenes were
witnessed as relatives gathered in an
effort to obtain information concern
ing them on the Inflated warship.
Up to the present time, however, the
authorities have not given out a list
