These recommendations of the fin- ico committee were adopted : That the request of Rev, Father Mea for remission of taxes on the lot in 'ront. of the Hotel Dieu Hospital, amounting to $51.93, less two per cent., ha granted. That an amount not exceeding $150 ba placed at the disposal of parks committee for the purpose of re-erect- ing the flagpole in Macdonald Park. The council adépted: the board of works report recommending that no wortico he allowed to he hereafter con- structed as an encroachment on, the street excepting as re-erection, and then only on the lines of the old por- ico. On this question there was no dis cussion, : to "be relieved Counter-Petitioner Speaks. C. W, Litton was present to esk that Earl street, hetween Krontenae and 'Alfred streets he watered. At the last meeting of the hoard of works it was decided, on a petition of C. Cle- ment to cut off this block from the street watering area, Mr. Clement also wldressed the council and asked it to liscontinue the watering. His petition included the names of all but one rate- payer interested. That "of Mr. Litton was signed by residents not on the lock in question, but who 'were in- livectly interested, by reason of being n the line of dust if there was no ~vatering. Mr. Litton said that the original etition was merely a piece of spite n the part of some residents acainst him. He had been blamed for havine the blocks above Alired street added o the street watering area, but he vas not responsible, the city council wad ordered the watering. Ald. Chown moved, in amendment to he board of works, that the petition of Mr. Litton be granted. He said 'hat the council had to look at the natter in a broad way, and not cut ff a block here and there when other iitizens as well as those residing on he blocks in question were affected. lhe amendment of Ald. Chown was de- cated, and the Llock in question will vo struck off the street watering area. Ald.

The weather 10 doubt; had some deteriorating ef- ect upon coal. He favored a roofed uilding. All the coal merchants had sovered sheds, Ald. Nickle moved, seconded by Ald. McCartney in amendment to the wa- terworks committee recommendation hat an unroofed> concrete shed be ouilt, that the matter be referred ack to the committee for further con- ideration. Ald. Craig said he had considerable ixperience with storing. coal. If the vaterworks property was large en- ough, he would advocate piling the wal, without enclosure. 1t was nec- sary te have an enclosure because there wasn't enough grouiid space. He fidn't think a roof was necessary. The building recommended would cost about $2,300, With a roof the cost would be over $4,000. Ald. Nickla thought that if the wea- ther didn't affect the coal it might ba piled on the waterworks wharf now leased to the Donnelly company. Ald. Henderson suggested building only two sides to the shed. Ald. McCartney. said it was a piece of extravavanes to build a concrete shed. The locomotive works used four times as much' coal as the water- HOW'S THIS ?

He said he had been approached by several people who said the water had a bad taste. 'lhe matter should be looked into. Ald. Henderson said he had received a number of similar complaints. Ald. Rigney said that the water might be tested. He had met people during the past week, who declared that Kingston had thg best water in the country. Ald. Hanley spoke like- wise, afl was satisfied the water was all right. Dr. W, T, Connell examined it regularly. The mayor said the matter should be drawn to the attention of the board of health. Regular tests of the water were made, he said. - Before the council 'adjourned, Ald. Hanley announced that he had seen Dr. Connell and the medical health of- ficer. Dr. Connell said that he had tested the water within ten days and found it all right. He would make another test at once and report. The medical health officer stated that there had been only one case of typhoid or- iginating in Kingston in the past year, and, therefore, the water could not be bad. Ald. Hanley said he be- lieved the water was all right. The Kingston Milling company was given franchise of thirty years for use of certain streets over which to bring an electric wire from Kingston Mills to its flour mill on Ontario street. The fire by-law was amended, mak- ing it unnecessary to shéet coal sheds with metal, when such sheds were used for the storing of anthracite or hard coal. Several construction hy-laws were passed, providing for the expenditure of money. - -- : General Business. The council, on motion of Ald. Rig- ney, decided to accept the resignation of Fireman John Lemunon, and auth- orizing the fire committee to tempor- arily appoint a man to fill the va- cancy. \ On motion of Ald. Rigney, the coun- cil authorized the payment of ac- counts incurred during the swmmer, if signed by the chairman of the various committees, the city engineer and the city auditor. On motion of Ald. Graham, the fine of Alfred Buck, convicted of illegally building a portico on city property, was remitted, in view of the decision of council to allow old porticos to be erected on the former lines. Ald. El- liott said that H., Cambridge, Ord- nance street, should alsa have his fine remitted, as his case was similar. The council agreed to remit Mr. Cam- bridge the amount he had paid. Ald. Elliott moved that during cation the city property committee consider the question of providing play grounds in Cataraqui, Rideau and Frontenac wards. The motion was adopted, The clagk was instructed to write, at the instance of the mavor, thank- ing the heads of certain institutions for courtesies extended to the council and its visitors, the Watertown, N.Y., officials, on June 29th.

Givens, to reduce the light plant assessment from $227 - 000 to $177,000, was lost. On motion of Alds. Rigney and Nickle, the council adjourned till the second Monday in September. It was eleven o'clock when the council arose. va- THE SCORES MADE In the Inter-School Rifle Competi- tion. An inter-school rifle competition, open to all schools in the dominion, whether possessing cadet corps or no, was started a year ago, and the re- sults of the first competition may be of "interest. The ranges were 200, 500 and 600 yards--seven shots with one sighting shot at each range, Bisley targets. . The competition took place on the first Saturday in June, the range used being that most convenient to the school concerned, There were four in each team.

It is hoped that next year a much greater number of schools will take part, and it is also hoped that some public spirited citizen will present a challenge shield to be held for the vear by the winning team. Sn ---------------- More Playgrounds Needed. Ald. Elliott's play ground scheme is a good one, and instantly commended itself to the city council ldst evening. The mover was twitted, by Ald. An- grove, as to whether, like Ald. Rig: ney, he intended to enter upon the turbulent sea of matrimony, and wished to provide for the future, but Ald. Elliott only smiled at this piece of inquisitiveness. He claimed that Frontenac, Rideau and Cataraqui wards shopld have play grounds for the vouth in those sections, and that the city wouncil should. sce that such grounds were provided. The city pro- perty committee will, no dopbt, make some report upon the matter when the council meets in September. .

The regular meeting of the board of health was held yesterday afternoon. Chairman 3. 5, Corbett presided, and also present © were Lr. J. G. kwaans, Francis King, John Lemmon and Dr. Beli, medical health olticer. ; in regard to the cellar of Mr. Zacks, Princess 'eet, it was' decided that the specisl report be received, and the committes discharged. It was found that the trouble bad been caused by a break in thu drain, and this had been repaiced. = Ur. knight and the chairman, at a recent nieeting, were appointed a com- mittee to interview Hon. William Harty, in reférence to the securing of the old stove building on the peni- tentiary farm, for the use of an iso- lation hospital. Hon. Mr. Harty wrote the board, stating that he had for- spector of penitentiaries, so that he mizht bring the matter before the minister oi justice. Mr. Harty will notify the hoard as soon as the mat- ter is dealt with, ) : Complaint was made about the fil- thy condition of cellars on the pro- perty of Mrs. Brown, on the west side of Barrie street, next to the Imperial laundry. The board will notify Mrs. Brown, that the .cellars must he cleaned at once,-and' that she must also erect an eavetrough at the rear of the buildings, so as to allow wa- ter to he carried off properly. Dr. Evans wrote the board lodging a complaint against the city scavengers for not calling at the police station every morning Letore ten o'clock for orders. Some time ago, it had keen arranged for the scavengers to huve boxes placed in the police station, 'so that the police," who received all the orders, could leave them in the box for the men. Dr. Evans, in making his complaint, said that if he did not pring thé 'matter before the. hoard, he would not think that he was fultilling Ins duties, as a member, The scavengers "worked on this system mentioned, from May 15th to Novem ber 1st. Dr. Evans complained about a case in which he -himeelf was inter ested, An order had been given by him to the police, for the. removal of a dead cat from his back yard. The said order had been placed in the box by Sergt. Snodden at the police station, but three days passed and neither of the scavengers called for the order. When Mr, Lewis, one of the scavengers, did call at his hous», Dr. Evans claimed that upon that oc- casion, he (Mr. Lewis) used abusive language, and conducted himself in a disorderly manner. The rules of the board required that the scavengers should call for their orders every day, and Dr, Evans said * that the men should be made to carry out the in- structions. . . Mr, Lewis was present and desired a thance to explain, but the hoarl con- sidered that these was no need of hearing him, Dr. Mvans, in explaining why he had sent the letter "to the hoard, stated that «days would pass before the or- ders were taken out of the box by the scavengers. 'The medical health officer had had considerahle trouble in get- ting the men to do their work proper: ly. Dr. Bell said that the day the com- plaint had been made to him by Dr. Evans, he had found several orders in Mr. Reeves' box, but none in Mr. Lewis'. . All the "members of the hoard were of the opinion that the orders should be attended to every day, and upon motion ¢f Mr. King and Dr. Evans, it was decided that scavengers must call every day at the police station, for orders, and that they must also obey the orders of the medical health offic- er and the sanitary inspectors. Dr. Bell explained to th¢/members the trouble he had had with the scav- enygers and "also informed the board that one of them had been summoned to appear in the police court. Dr. Bell referred to the house-to- house inspeetion of the city, which has just been made of the city by Con stables Timmerman and Filson, stat- ing that the work had been done far better than in any previous year. The constables had carried out their du- ties well, and were deserviny of great credit. In all there had been a total of 1,053 violations of the by-law. Let- Is Your Skin Scaly, Hardy ?

All the necessary must be made at Shee. is boanl The motion passed by t , on. on metion of Dr. Evans and Mr, King, was that the ical health of- ficer be given po to act in such cases, and that the city engineer pre- pare plans for the board, showing the streets, with houses, 'that bave no drains. 5 . Dr. Bell said that many citizens wel real angry when told to close up old wells. One citizen was very wrathy, and called at his office | at eleven o'clock one.evening, and challenged him to a fight. The doctor did not accept, explaining that, 'small men could not be trusted." g Dr. Bell had a large pile of reports before him, which had been given by the police constables, making the in- spection, and he paid a special tri- bute to their work. The members of the board occasion to commend for their work, and on motion of Mr. King and Dr. Bvans, it was decided to place on record the good work and reports presented by the constables. Dr. Bell spoke of the salary received by the constables. He said they had always been paid $25, but that the work was worth far more. Dr. Evans said that he would sanc- tion an increase of $10 to each of the constables, and on niotion of Dr. Evans, seconded by Mr. Lemmon, it was decided that the men should re- ceive $356 each for their work.

The International Baseball League went out of business, Saturday, but attempts-- will be made to revive it. The trouble was largely caused hy the fact that there were not enough cities represented in the league. The clubs are nearly all behind in the sul. ries of the players. Referee Walsh had this to sav, after the Nelson-Gang fight : "Nelson won a clean-cut. victory. I do not, however, think that Gans of to-day was the Gans of 0ld. He g&eemed to have lost some of his cleverness, and to my eve his blows did not seem to have the same vim hehind them.s Nelson was too strong and it was a case of youth having its fling." Mertes, released by Toronto baseball team, has been one of the prominent figures in big league baseball for = number of years. He was at the height of his fame and usefulness as a member of the" New . York Giants, of the National League, and was one-of the idols of Gotham. He was a .300 hitter year in and year out, and a terror to anybody who tried to stop him on the bases. Mertes has seen his best days as a player. Youth must be served, and he is having trouble with his legs. His arm is as good as ever, but he has lost his batting eye. A London despatch says : The cry of "Good Luck" went up from hun- dreds of throats as Longboat started on his fourteen miles run from Kil- breedy on by Ballinrana creamerv to Kilfinane, then to Kilmall®ek and then to Kilbreedy.
