As to the special case cited Society, regarding the It, Concession city board. the attention of the county buatl of health might be drawn to matter, Lieut.-Col. Massie said that the Humane Society had drawn the county board's attention' to the matter, and of the necessity of taking some act- ion. The chairman intimated that the board some time had appointed a committee to tal up the garbage question, abd present to the city council some scheme for the inaugura- tion of some system. Dr. Evans stated that about a year and. a half ago he had drawn the at- tention of the beard to the condition of the Theriault premises. A few days ago he had visited the premises again and in all his life never saw such a disgracefully filthy place. Cows were were supplying people with milk. Dr Eu ri thought that ept by the owner and perhaps y Theriault case did not come uM jurisdiction of the city board. The ion, however, should be very seriously. He moved that the chairman, Mayor Mowat and the medical health officer be a commit. tee to report upon a scheme for the removal and disposal of the city gar- the fe e city commissioner pointed out that the city by-laws provided for the removal of garbage. e difficulty lay in the fact that the scavengers 4 ap pointed to do the carting can do so only when asked by individual citi sens. The Stenger <annot go on premises and cart away even if they think it necessary. The com- missioner sail that the only way to have a satisfactory garbage system was to provide public funds to de- fray the cost. At present, the chief of police is responsible for enforcing the y-law, regarding garbage removal. As the mayor will it be a member of the board. next vea¥, the names of Dr.Etherinigton and the city commis- Siogee wie gs the: mittee lo consider the re ion, in- stead. The motion we The health officer stated that he had arranged with the local druggists as to a uniform price for formaldehyde and permanganate of potash for fumi- gation purposes. A letter was receiv- ed from the local druggists associa- tion as to the prices. On motion of Dr. Etherington, it was decided to print forms explaining the method of fumigation as recommended by the hoard's special committes, for distri bution among the physicians. W. F. Nickle wrote the hoard re- garding the burning of paper and other refuse and filth of a nuisance in the quarry hole in the rear of Lower Albert street. Mr. Nickle said be had been informed that filth hag from time to time been dumped there during the summer and this autumn and that sickness will likely result as soon as the spring thaw sets in. He asked for an enquiry. : The health officer said he had inves tigated some time ago, and found that some old papers from Queen's University had heen burned there. He could find no evidence of anything un- sanitary. The hoard, rpferred the mat- ter to the health offiper for further re- rt. William A. Kelly complained of a nuisance at the corner of Bay and Sydenham streets, caused by a neigh- bor spreading manure over his yard. In wet weather, the material runs in. to the complainant's yard, causing a very unsanitary condition to exist. -------------- Our stock of Sleigh robes is very complete.

Chairman = Corbett said that the, hoard f; i #0 the Humane Society fgr the interest it had taken in the health of the city. It was pleased to all information to all cows supplying purposes of the inhabi- municipality, the marking be infected and the prevention of the sale of milk from these cows so marked. . The health officer reported that dur- ing November there had been reported to him, twenty-five cases of scarlet fever, four of typhoid fever and one of diphtheria. The scarlet' fever had been pretty well surrounded now. In reporting upon the work accom- plished by the board during the year, the medical health officer stated that forty residences and one factory had been compelled to put in proper sani- tary drdinage, thereby clearing up cess pools, which formerly ex- ated. During the year there had been 137 cases of contagious disease report- ed to him. Of these, thirty-one were typhoid fever, fourteen diphtheria and ninety-two scarlet fever. Quite a num- ber of these cases did not originate in or belong to the city. During the pre- vious year, the contagious disease cases totalled 158, so that the present year shows an improvement. In fact there has been a steady decrease for several years past. Typhoid has been reduced by closing up contaminated wells of milk dealers. This year there has been more scarlet fever than usu- al, and the health officer attributed this to the concealment of their chil- dren's illness until an outbreak oeccur- red. Parents should report such sick- ness at once. The health officer thank- ed the officials of the city for the aid they had given him, and expressed his gratefulness to the chairman, S. 8S. Corbett, with whom he had been con- stantly associated, and who showed himdelf to be an admirable presiding officer and representative of the board. On motion of Dr. Evans, the board expressed its appreciation of the able services rendered hs Mr. Corbett , in the di of hid duties. Mr. Cor- bett nchargs ; his thanks for the board's confidence, and assured the members that he had not done any more than Ais duty as a representa- tive of the city council appointed to look after the health interests of Kingston. The board then adjourned until January. SUITS IN FOUR DAYS. Presents Difficulty of Getting Tailor's Apprentices.

SHOULD BE STOPPED. Practice of Throwing Bottles on : the Street. A practice which has become alto- gether too prevalent in the city, and one which has been brought to the at- tention of the police, is that of the throwing of bottles and flasks on the roadway. On Princess street, just a few days ago, a pile of broken glass was noticed, and as this is not only a drawback to the appearance of the street, but also dangerous for the horses, which have to travel to and fro all the day, it should be stopped. There is a by-law prohibiting the the dumping of glass on the street, and citizens should have a care in the future. Cases are known where the glass has penetrated a horse's hoof, thereby causing the animal to suffer intense pain, ¥ RAILWAY ACCIDENT. Ten Cars and Contents Scattered Over Tracks. An east bound G.T.R.freight train bowling along about three o'clock, this morning, met with a serious ac- cident one mile west of Collins Bay, through the breaking of a truck. Ten cars, with their contents, were scat- tered over the two tracks from fence to fence. There were four cars of wheat, four of pork, one of lumber and one of package freight. The bulk of the debris was on the south-bound track. The auxiliaries from Brock- ville and Belleville were hurried to the scene of the wreck. The north-bound track was shifted sufficiently to allow the passenger expresses, east and west, to pass. This occurred at ten o'clock. No one was hurt in the un- fortunate acrident. Arrivals At B. A.

HIT GAS ENGINE WILL SUPPLY POWER CHEAPER. An Expert Engineer Addresses the ard of Trade--Gas Will Sup- Power Here at Half the Present Cost. Last evening, the Board of Trade members listened to an interesting and comprehensive address on the power question by L. G. Read, expert engi- a member of the Colonial Engi- . company, of Montreal, an Engli concern. Mr. Read spoke chiefly on the cheap power that the gas producer engine supplies: He showed that the Hyd -Electric Power com- mission of t Ontario government couldn't possibly furnish power for general use at less than twice the amount that gas producer engines would furnish it. Mr. Reid took Kingston ps an ex- ample.- Suppose the Hydfo-Electric commission offered power" at $20 a horse-power a year. The city must take so many horse-power whether used or not. The commission does not sell by units of power. A $20 rate for Kingston wbuld actually mean $40 if measured by units of power util- Not so with the gas producer en- gine, which can supply power cheaper than water falls or steam can. By gas engine, power for Kingston can be produced for '820 a horse-power a year, and the consumers would have to pay only for what they used. Manufac- turers who wanted power for ten hours a day would not have to pay for twenty-four hours a day, as they would by the Hydro-Electric commis- sion arrangement. Mr. Read said that his company was at present installing a gas pro- ducer power plant in Chatham. That town has been paying $67 a year each for street arc lamps. The gas power plant will supply the lights at $30 each, less than half the cost. Al- though Chatham has natural gas, it is using coal as fuel, because coal will actually produce the power cheaper. In the gas producer plant, any fuef can be' used. The city's garbage can be burned in the furnace, as it supply gas quite capable of produc- ing power. That' is one solution of the garbage question. Montreal is paying $110,000 a year {for 1,712 street arc lamps, or $62 | each. Mr. Read's company has offer- ed to instal a gas power producer plant that will do the street lighting or $560,000 a year, or less than half the present cost. Gas producer en- gines. are being used largely in Eur- ope, England and the United States, for they can produce power at half the cost of any other power. A vote of thanks was moved to Mr. will | Read by Corneling Bermingham, who stated that he had studied the gas | producer problem and endorsed every- | thing Mr. Read had 'said. A year ago | he told the Board of Trade, that pow- | or could be generated by gas far| cheaper than by water falls. The | Kingston Locomotive Works would | have installed a gas producer plant for power, only that it required 400 horse-power for heating purposes. When a factory or a works has to be heated, a steam plant is cheaper, as it supplies bothgneeds. The Locomo- tive Works would use gas producer en- gines for other power, however. Mr. Hewton seconded the resolution, and Mr. Read thanked the 'board for appreciation of his remarks. Suspenders in fancy boxes, 50¢. Jen- kins'. William Swaine, piano tuner.
