Lemmon, glazing, $2.10. The committee further recommended that Victoria school building be re- insured in the same companies as fol: lows : Norwich, $4,000; Union Assur: ance, $1.000; Caledonia, $2,000; Lan cashive, $2,000. That the insurance on the collegiate institute be ee from $26,000 to $22.000, and that a £4,000 risk be placed in each of the following companies : Queen City, Quebec, North British and Mercantile. That Mise Bateman and Miss Gilbert receive $3.25 each as extra remunera- tion for looking after the board's ex- hibit at last year's fair. Thai the committee be empowered to advertise for tenders for fuel for 1902-3, : The report was taken np clause hy clause. . in referonce to. the insurance, Mr, Elliott moved, seconded by Mr. Mc: Kelvey, that the accounts for insur ance be struck out. ahd that the fin shoe committee be instructed to hdve the insurance effected in companies whose rates are not so hi as those to which it has reported that preminms shall be paid. In speaking to the motion, Mr. Kiiott said he believed the hoard's inanrance could be effected on' the tmildings much more cheaply and: just as effectively. 1 are other com names than the tariff companies. w hich ave just as good. asd by insiring in these the bowed could save from ten fo twenty-five per cent, Corporations i t the country were inwuring in aan companies, and it would be safe for the board to de x0. Mr. Lambert said committee had gone thoroughly into the matter. It whe a question Ww he the non tar ies wore safe. \ Godwia stated that an insur an increase. wns ance company, started at the same time as the Equity, was being closed up, and it had as much business on its looks as the Equity, the local agent of which bad adked for a por tion of the hosrd's imsarance. . Meeck-- Practically this is a re newal of the insurance = placed three venrs.ago under the most careful con sideration. Prof. Martin advogated the total rick being taken by the public: The dominion of Canada bad not one of its buildings insured; neither had the fell telephone company. The speaker advocated the carrying of the board's own risks. Mr, MeKelvey favored municipal in surance, but not at present. Mean- while he would not insure for over fifty per cent. of the value of the buildings. He would like to see the collegiate institute's value cut in two; the boanl wanted to fave money, Rusiness men of the city are more and more insuting in the non-tarifi companies. These latter take into consideration the charaéter of the men whose places ther insure. Mr. McCann's experience was that non-tariff companies would take aty insurance they could get, and would cut 'rates to get it. While he would be in favor of patronizing some non. tariff companies, he would consider it unwise to place all the insurance in their 'hands. My. Plliott said this was hie first Spportunity in years in discussing the matter, the result of his constant qgi- tation. H's non-tariff company failed the government deposit would enable the re-insuring of risks in gvothier com. pany. The Gore insurance company was established in 1536; surely a tompany that Has existed so long is safe. There were others--the London, Perth, Ottawa, Wand-in-Hand, 'ire Exchange, the Waterloo, Queen City, Equity and = Anglo-American, and others---doing a large business in the city, and they were safe enough for any. corporation. To insure in these companies would save much money for other purposes. Mr. Godwin denied that the gaovern- ment re-ingured when one concern fail ed, in auother company. Mr. Elliott's amendment was lost. Mr. McKelvey then moved that one third of the insurance on Victoria school be placed with a non-tarifi company, other than the one already carrying insurance for the board, and that the finance committee be given A poser to act. This amendment was also lost. Mr. Richardson moved, seconded by Mr. Elliott, that $4,000 of the insur- ance on the collegiate institute be given to the Equity company at six- ty cents for three vears, the commit- tee having the privilege to reduce the other policies. . Mr. Godwin moved, in amenament, that the sum be divided up, $2.000 going to the Equity and $2,000 to the Queen City companies. Both amendments were lost, and the report was then adopted. Property Report. Mr, Godwin presented the report of the property committee, recommend- ing that the salaries of the following carctakers be increased : Joseph Gould, $325 to $350; 8. Ludlow, $325 to $350; N. McCaig, $25 to $350; A. Langdon, $135 to $150; Mrs. Tren: bailie, $135 to 8150; F. Gates, $50 tw #00. The committee also recommend- oi that the caretakers of Central, Victoria, and Frontenac schools be available as messengers during school hours, and that the by-law be amend- ed accordingly; that the K. & P. rail- way company be requested to build a line fence between the Depot school and the car works, the board to pay hali. The committee asked permis- sion to ask for tenders for authorized repairs, r." Bennett wanted the board to build the fence at the depot school, instead of letting the company do-it. He introdiucen a motion to this ef- fect, but could not find a seconder. The report, as amended, was adopt . d. Mr, Lambert moved, seconded by Mr. Elliott, that the management committee enquire into the present system of promotion of plpils, and report as to ité success. --Carried. Moved by Mr. Elliott, seconded by Mr. Lambert, that the finance com- mittee ascertain the time spent by collegiate imstitute Adncpors in -- nection with the honor class, and the cost of condueting the same. Carried. Mr, Elliott asked if thé board sup- plied all the articles the school chil- dren required exeept the text hooks. Some 'of the teachers, he said, were working on the feelings of the little ones, and suggesting the expenditure of five and' tem cents for this thing and that. He declared that the teach ers should be prohibited from doing thie, and the hoard agreed. Then, too, the monthly reports of pupils' work was not being properly issued. Months were occasionally omitted. The board looked upon this us a seri- ous matter; and some enquiries will made, SPORT IN GENERAL.

The secretary was in structed to thank the trades and la bor gouneil for the promised co-opera tion. 5 The question of inviting outside corps to take part in the military proceedings was fully discussed, ana it was decided that the secretary should write the various regiments at Brockville, Picton Belleville, Ogdens- burg, Oswego, Watertown, and Ro chester, to find out which of them could come. It is intended to have at least one Canadian and one United States vegiment here. The latter would bring a large erowd of people from across the border.
