ENMERATORS ARE READ | To Cover the Taking of the | Dominion Census in Kingston. ! ---- i -Prepgrations for the sixth annual {census in Kingston are being com- | pleted by Census Commissioner E. W. { Skinner. On Wednesday examina- | tions were conducted in the census office oh Market street. In the morn- ing full instructions were given to | the enumerators, every detail on the long sheet of questions being ex- | plained. In the afternoon the ¢andi- dates for the positions of enumera- tors were required to write answers to a number of questions bearing on the census. On Wednesday night Commission er Skinner sent forward the list of candidates for approval at the Census and Statistics office, Ottawa, and it is expected that the official list of enumerators will be announced at the beginning of next week. Twenty-four enumerators will be appointed to cover the city and, in addition, there will be three to take charge of the work in such public in- stitutigiis as the penitentiary, the asylum and the jas, There are about seventy-five ques- tions which will have to be answered by all persons residing in this census district. Every detail will have to be | given about nationality, occupation, | income end other distinguishing characteristics. The enumerators are bound under oath to reveal no part of {any information given to them and | are required to do their work unac- | companied. On the other hand every | person is required under heavy penal- | ties to give all information to the en- umerators and it is anticipated that the average time necessary to ans- balf an hour, although in many cases they may be answered in less time. The former announcements from Ottawa regarding the preparations for analysing the census returns in- dicate that the information will be divided into many parts. As soon as the census sheets reach there, they will be split into a number of parts and the information which John Smith may give will soon lose its id- entity as relating to him. The enumeration in Kingston will begin on June 1st' and it is hoped that it will be completed within two weeks. FRE AT MARKET SQUARE Barrel of Tar' Ablaze--Whig Man Called the Fire Brigade. There was great excitement on the market square at 10.30 o'clock Thursday morning, when a barrel of tar caught fire. The tar, it appears, was being used on the city hall roof for a demonstration. A young man, in charge of the boiling tar, allowed it to get so hot that it caught fire and with the pot and the barrel on fire things became quite lively as the burning tar went over the road. The pot and barrel had been placed close to the sidewalk op- posite the door of the Bank of Mont- real. The young man, who had charge of the tar, rushed into the police sta- tion, and the first fellow he happensd to see was a Whig reporter, and he called: "Get the firemen quick, there's a barrel of tar on firs out on the market square." No, dear readers, the Whig scribe had not been 'pinched." This was not how he. happened to in the '""lock- up," but he was there to see if he could dig up any news. The Whig man rushed to the tele- phone and sent in the alarm, and Chief Armstrong and his. men were quickly on the scene and extinguish- ed the fire. The burning tar made clouds of black smoke and for a time one could not sée across the market square. The tar should not have been plas- ed so near the city buildings. Ohief Armstrong stated that on Wednesday when he heard about the demonstra- tion to be carried out he gave in- structions to have the tar placed in the centre of the market square. The blaze might have been far | more serious. : a -------------------- Quotations Furnished by Bongard, Ryerson'& Co., 237 Bagot Street. dn : New York Stocks. Opening.
