a SVAN THE DAILY WHIG. pe "HAVE YOU ANY OF THESE Symptoms of a Very Common Trouble ? There is no disease so common in the United States as Catarrh because "it appears in so many forms and at- tacks so mun, different organs. It is a comwon mistake to suppose that catarrh is confined to the nose and throat. Any inflammation of the micous membrane wherever located accompanied by abnormal secretions, is catarrh. Catarrh of stomach or bladder, or intestines is = nearly as common as nasal catarrh and much more serious although it is true that stomach catarrh and catarrh of other internal organs is the result of ne- glécted nasal catarrh. A new remedy has recently appear- ed which so far as tested scems to be remarkably effective in promptly cur- ing catarrh, wherever located. The pre- paration is sold by druggists general ly under the name of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, and in addition to being very palatable and convenient, possesses ex- traordinary merit, in many cases giv- ing immediate relief from the cough- ing, haw king and constant clearing of the throat and head, those symptoms with which everyone is familiar who has ever suffered from colds in the head and throat. Catarrh is simply a continuation of these symptoms until the trouble be- comes, chronic and grows gradually worse from vear to year. « Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, are com- posed of Hydrastin, Red Gum and milar antiseptics and catarrh specifics, from which it will be seen that no se- cret is made of the ingrgdients and also that no mineral poisbns ave used, as is the case with many well known catarrh medicines. For catarrh of the nose, throat, bronchial tubes, for catarrh of stom- ach, intestines or bladder no prepara- tion is so safe and gives such rapid and permanent results as Stuart's Catarrh | Tablets. All druggists sell them at 50c. for full sized package. You can use them with assurance that vou will not con- tract the cocaine or morphine habit as the results from this eatarrh cure are apparent from the first day's use. Do You Rest Well?

ORANGE CONCERT THE CITY HALL Guy Fawkes' Day Remembered Addresses Delivered -- Pro- gramme of Song and Story-- A Dance Followed. There was a very large gathering last evening at the City Hall at the Orange concert and assembly, the day being the anniversary of Guy Fawkes and the gunpowder plot, an event which is annually celebrated by the Orangemen with much eclat. 'The platform was handsomely decorated with flags and seated upon it were leading members of the order in King- ston and vicinity. Rev. G. S. White, Napanee, presided, and he made an ideal chairman. In opening the proceedings he referred to the occasion which they were celebrat- ing. It was one which every loyal subject of Britain should feel it his duty to'remember. It was the har binger of civil and religicus hberty. As an Orangeman in an Orange meet- ing, he could speak to men from his heart. He was glad to speak in toe * Derry of Canada," and referred to the visit of the Prince of Wales to Iingston in 1860, when the loyal Orangemen of Canada taught. the Duke of seweastle, a Jesuit an disguise, that he was dealing with loyal sons | of the British empire, and nat they | would struggle for their rights. * No i | surrender," was their battle cry, and lit would never be forgotten. I K. Featherstone, of Deseronto, who lis known 'as ** Limerick" by his | friends, made a humorous address af ter which he sang a comic song which was well received. Maud Dut ton, in a pleasing recitation, received Miss la very generous reception, and was | loudly applauded. A comic song by | W. J.

He had to re spond so often that he finally sang in fine voice, "1 Am So Tired," which was a splendid effort. and was lustily cheered. An address Grand Duncan Munroe, of Cornwall, Master R. by followed and was one dear to an Orangeman's heart. He referred to the work of the order and their lovalty and at tachment to the British throne. While the Jesuits existed would Orange ism. Orangeism was the bulwark of civil and religious liberty.

Scott, who is a colored gentleman, stated that McCoy was bothering him. McCoy claimed he was only doing his duty in keep- ing all the porters inside a given line --a duty he claimed the police did not attend to. Porter McQuade, of the British-Ameciican, and others gave evidence. It. was evidently Jealousy among the various porters that led to the trouble. "1 find you both guilty," said the i~trate.

Runs -Under the Building on the North-east Side of Market Street--Board of Health Orders it to Be Examined, and Will Take Action. The Board of Health held a_special session on Wednesday afternoon, to further consider the unsanitary condi- tion of the drain under the Inland Res venue offices on the Market Square, which have had to be vacated. There were present : John Melntyie, K.C., chairman; Capt. Gaskin, Robert Meek, J. R. Donaldson, J. 1). Thompson, Mayor Shaw, Medical Health Ufhce Fee, City Solicitor Melntyre and City Commissioner Gordon. Alo in at- tendance were these owners and oceu- pants: L. Halliday, James Hender- son, Charles Parker, A. B. Cunning ham, H. H. Gildersleeve and H. Mooers. Mr, Cunningham stated that he lod- ged a complaint with the medical health officer about the drain last June, and asked why the matter had not been attended to then. The chair- man stated that the Board of Health had never heard of it. The letter, however, was produced, and Dr. Fee explained that he had examined the drain, and understood at the time that Mr. Cunningham was going to put it into a sanitary condition. " Mr. Cunningham stated that he made the drain under his building sanitary, and if the matter had been attended to last summer, he would have been saved $150. The owners of adjoining buildings were then heard. Mr. Mudie, on be bali of Charles Parker, stated that the building of the latter was perfectly sanitary, as an iron pipe had recent- ly been constructed into the old drain, Mr. Mooers said that he had cleaned out his part of the drain last spring, and had it tiled, and cemented over. It was very bad before that. Now it is all right. If the city would give him permission to close up the old drain, he would pay for his own con- neltion with the Clarence street drain. Mr. Cunningham stated that he had been trying for some time past "to get the owners together, but failed. For his own protection he had to put a tile drain under his premises, and connected it with Clarence street. He did not use the old drain now, but was willing to do anything in reason. Mr. Henderson, who owns the In- land Revenue building, explained that the drain under his place seemed to he the dumping ground of the others. It was not his refuse, nor those of his tenants. He regarded the drain as a public sewer, and it was the Sat of oa city to 'dose it up, for was de trimental to the public ath Mr. Meck pointed out that there were five people interested, three of whom were willing to drain into Clar ence street. 1f Mr. Parker and Mr, Gildersleeve would do the same, | the whole matter would be settled. Mr. Gildersleeve wanted to know if city had a right to close up the drain. If it was not sanitary, let the owners be made to put in one that will be sanitary. Mr. Mudie held that there was a prescriptive right by the own ers, and the Board of Health had no powey, therefore, to close up the drain. Mr. Parker would he put to much ex pense in draining into Clarence street. Mr. Cunningham declared that there micht be a prescriptive right to a drain, but there was .no prescriptive vicht to-a nuisance. : The chairman said that the drain was badly in need of cleaning out. It was a detriment to health. Capt. Gaskin clatmed that the five owners should agree and settle the matter at once. He was sure Mr. Par. ker's building (Clarence street. When the owners Thad rétired; Capt. Gaskin moved that. the drain be clos ed up, if the city had the right, The city solicitor stated that if the drain was cleaned out and tile sewers connegted with those of Mr. Mooers and Mr. Cunningham, then the re «ult would probably be satisfactory. It was finally decided, on motion of Mr. Meek, that the city engineer, the medical health officer and the city commissioner should inspect the drain anl report at once to the hoard, whith would then be in a position to take ation.
