Matter Again Discussed at Meet- BOARD OF HEALTH. ing Held Yesterday--Steps to | Be Taken to Prohibit Expecs torating on Walks, : The much talked about case, was agawm board of Lealth yesterday afternoon, Lut no action was taken, and the mats probably be dropped the "baby case." the matter coming before the The minutes of the meetings show that no one member board was responeible. The speaker had, some few weeks ago, called af the office Dr. Abbott, and had seen a statement, sworn to by James oud of the Rankin. 'Lhis statement referred to the baby case, particulars of which have been given in these columns before. Dr. Evans said that this statement bad been widely circulated, and it was the duty of the board to inquire | into the matter. Mr. Rankin was not present at the last meeting, and he was surprised to find that he had not put in an appearance at this meeting. The board should go into the matter thoroughly, in justice to all concerned. Chairman Corbett asked whether or not there were any documents dealing with the case to be presented to the board. The city clerk said he had a com- munication from Mr. Rankin, who was in Toronto, stating that if the board wanted him to attend the meeting he would, ask for a return ticket to To- romto. Mayor Mowat said that there was no evidence before the board. There was only the heresay evidence, which alleged that Mr. Runkin had made certain statements. The only ques- tion to be considered was as to wheth- er or not such statements had been made by Dr. Bogert. It was in jus- tice to Dr. Bogert that he should be allowed to make a statement ify he 80 desired. Dr. Bogert said that he was sure that there were not two individuals who would believe that a child had been born. He would defy any person to say that he had himself stated that a child was born. And why should the board's name have been used connection with case? He never used the 's name, nor had he ever hinted at such a thing as had been alleged, to any living soul. "Did you ever tell Mr, Kin, ser- iously or by way of a 'jolly,' that a child had 'been born?' as Dr. Evans of Dr. Bogert. "No, 1 did not," was the reply. . Bogert also denied having made any statement before an attorn:v. Dr. Evans said that hd was inclined to belicve that the medical health of- ficer, and some othérs as well, knew more about the case than they desired to tell. "I would like to squeeze it out of them," said the doctor, There was no more discussion on the matter, and no action was taken. Dr, Pozert and Mr. Nickle retired from the meeting, and the members of the -- --_-- e= Grape Fruit, Pineapples Tomatoes and Bananas A. J.

Want By-Law Enforced. Pr. Evans brought another matter before the board--that eof expectorating on the sidewalks. He said that the board of health last year passed a by- law prohibiting this practice, but it appeared as if the by-law had not been enforced. The principal sidewutks in the city were put in a disgraceful con- dition, as a result of 'this disgusting habit. By-laws prohibiting the prac- tice were enforced in other cities, and he could see no good reason why the by-law should not be enforced in this city. He urged that the sanitary in- spector . be called upon to keep his cagle eye on the lookout for offenders, and that an example be made of some of them. Serious results would fol- low, if the practice was allowed to continue, : The members, of the board were heartily in accord with all that had been stated by Dr. Evans on the mat- ter, and decided to make every eflort possible to have the by-law enforced. The board will write the chairman of the board of police commissioners con- cerning it. Dr. Evans asked for information re- lative to the report made a few days ago that calves had been killed in, a tarn within the city. limits. Dr: Bell sal that he had received the report, and hat he had instructed the police to make an investigation, and he had expected that a. police court case would follow, but no ae- tion along this line had been taken. The claim had been made that the calves had, been killed near Kingston Mills dnd then removed to the city. However, blood had been found on the floor in the barn, and this, the doo. tor claimed, went to show that the killing had taken place in the barn. The doctor was of the opinion that it would have been better for the po- lice to have prosecuted, rather than low the case to drop.

In general infer est the history is at a disadvantage when compared with the biography of but one individual. . But Mr. Hannay has presented gf picture of New Bruns- wick in ite history and in the charac- ter of its public men that should make the more clearly understood by all Cenadians. What was done in Ontario and Quebec to gain responsi- ble government is a frequently-told story. 'The same situation down by the sea is well worth the telling, and has ite'own heroes. Wilmot was the hero of. the struggle for responsibl vermment. Tilley did most in New nswick confederation. There are both similarities and contrasts in their careers. The author is just, ap- preciative and teful in his delinea- tion of their individualities, While de- scribing Wilmot's personality, his eo- quence, his favor in the eyes of his fel- low-provinoials, and the abuses in gov- ernment to which they were then sub-, jected, My. Hannay introduces several asides which l with actual condi- tions, either existing* then or now, which are of as great interest, The tribute to Sir mard Tilley's abil- ity, high sta and public service is generous and yet justified.
