would not consider Ii until his con-
tract for the service he had COM

consent to hold on, but on that day
he stated again to the board that
he could not do so.

choose to continue teaching. will be
retained. with the addition OF Miss
Mona Vandevort, but 1t Is known
that numbers of them will not teach
next year, so that the full list OF
teachers cannot now be given. The

Ito retain the present teaching staff.

cabin was warily circled but no
tracks were found leaving it, and

they approached, k eeping under

a singing wind. caused the men to
seek shelter and they forced en-
trance to the. barn where fire was
built while rifiemen at the aperatures
in the logs kept the house covered.
The posse organized in Dillon was
added to by men who got on both at
Armstead and Lima. At Lima the
posse changed cars, the body of the
dead sheriff being returned to Dillon

TRENTON. Oct. 13:-Although
the total membership of the House
of Assembly will not be affected by
the results ofNthe 1920 federal GEN.
sus, 1t is anticipated hat as the re-
turns have indicated large increases
in population in some of the
ties of the state there will be a re-
apportionment of the representation

Of the state. This will be done by
the next legislature, is the state
constitution provides that after each
census enumeration an apportion-
ment of the membership shall be
made.
Just what different counties will
lose and other gain in the matter
of assemblymen remains to be de-
termined by the working out of the
census figures for each of the politi-
.cal divisions of the state. After the
census of 1910 Burlington and Cum
berland counties, which had prevf-
0usly had two members each, were
reduced in representation respec-
lively TO one and Monmouth county
was cut from three members to two.
Conversely Atlantic county, which
had had one representative. was
given another, Bergen county in
creased from two to three and Essex
county from eleven TO twelve assem-
blymen in the lower branch of the
legislature. At present the sixty
members of the House are divided
as follows: Atlantic, 2; Bergen. 8;
