The night befare the plaintiff's boy was killed by a shock from the guy wire of the electric pole at the comer of Centre and Union streets, a large tree, to which a stay wire was at- tached, caught fire, and the light de- partment office had to be telephoned to. It is claimed that this light was out of order, and that the light department had realized it a hight or two previous. There was electric leakage' somewhere or the portion which the boy caught hold of would not have been dangerous. The prosecution's main coritention will be that the guy wire was not fastened high enough above the walk to be be- yond reach of passersby. The light de- partment claims it was about six inches above the height required by law, while the plaintiff will be prepared to-show that the wire fastening or ring on the pole was less than five feet above the walk. THE BOARD OF HEALTH. Heard the Pros and Cons Con- cerning Street Rumors. The Board of Health met on Tuesday afternoon .and its members felt happy over the fact that since last Saturday no new cases had developed. An odd case will, no doubt, be discovered now and then, 'but the vaccination of the people is going to stamp out the epi- demic, in a very short tithe. If every- body gets vaccinated, the fort hospital will soon be¢ empty. : The board had invited Alderman Gra- ham and Dr. Bogert to be present and make definite statements about irregu- larities which they alleged against the board and its officers. Ald. Graham's were of a general nature, such as are heard on the street and were shown by the mayor to be without much founda- tion. Dr. Bogert's chief charges was that the health officer had not isolated all cases of which he knew. The health officer' denies and challenged proof. Dr. Bogert 'said he could prove what he said, and Dr. Bell declared he couldn't. There was a warm passage between Alderman. Angrove and the medical health, officer, with reference to a mis- take made by the latter on Thursday last hy entering the house of a relative of 'Ald. Angrove's on Queen street to see an alleged case. The wrong house was visited. The 'debate between the afdérman and the health officer finally reached an exciting elimax, and Dr. Etherington stepped in and prevented \ bloodshed. The mayor deferided the health offi- cer in regard to the street criticisms made of that official, who was doing his very best to carry out the law. The mayor stated at the council meeting Monday evening that if the health offi- "cer resigned, the board couldn't get dn- other doctor: in the -city to take his place at this time.

The By-Law to Be Passed Requires a Three-Quarter. Majority Vote of Council--Some Aldermen May Secede. : : Although the Board: of Works' re- commendation regarding street paving passed the city council by a vote of 15 to 4, the matter may yet be bowled out, as the by-law requires a three-fourths niajority vote of the council, or seven- teen yotes. A couple of aldermen who voted' for the report on Manday. even- ing are talking of opposing. the by-law when it comes up at-the next council tneeting.' If they do so, then the road paving question will receive a slap m the - face, for although tnere will be a majority in favor, yet there will not be enough vptes to pass the by-law. If this is to be the result, then there will be no street paving 'for probably five years, and the city engineer will have to revise his other road construction plans as the downtown roads can no longer be allSWET to remain in their present disgraceful condition. The en- gineer will never recommend that they be macadamized, but will simply advise patching them until such time as a pav- ing by-law is passed. To pass the by- law for the thirteen blocks proposed in the report of the engineer, as adopted by the council on Monday evening, two more votes were needed, those of 'Alds. Harty and Hanley who were not pre- sent when the vote was taken. If any of the other fifteen aldermen who voted 'for the scheme desert it or remain away, it will be good-bye to road pav- mg. EPIDEMIC STAYED. No mew contagious cases have developed for # four and the outlook for a speedy stamping out of the mild but unpleasant 'disease .that floated -into Kingston some time ago is very bright. The people are being rapidly vaccinated, and by next week, very few will be found who have not been obeyed the law in this respect. Hence the danger of the disease spreading has been 1ieduced to a minimum. There are not nearly as many cases at the fort as people imagina. From now on patients will leave the hospital faster than mew cases will occur The epidemic has caused in- jury to the business of the city. but there is now no reason why there shoull be any further scare. The people from the surro:ind. ing district have mo reason to be afraid. They are per- fectly safe, in coming to city as usual, for the ci authorities have taken the most emergent nleasures to isolate every case, placihg them two miles beyond the city. People shouldn't be- lieve the silly rumors that are going the rounds, as not one-tenth of them are true.

TUG OOF OF OER AY YNOGH 11 OUTGHAL STONE EXR00EY AND KITCHEN IN HOUSE! WAS WRECKED. People in York Street Homé Had Exciting Time, But Escaped! Injury--Windows Broken apd Furniture' Thrown in Heap. A toal stove at the home of Charles Thomaras, corner of York and Barrie streets, lode abeut four o'clock, on Tuesday afternoon, and almost made a total wreck of the kitchen. Luckily, two members of the household, whq were home, were ip one of the upstair rooms at the time, and thus escaped injury. The cause of the explosion is unknown, and the damage is estimated at about $300. - Y The coal stove was. situated in the basement, and was fitted out for heat- ing water for a large bath. Mr. Thom- aras says that he started the fire about two o'clock in the afternoon, and then left the house. The explosion occurred two hours later, as he was on the front steps of the house, about to enter, and he received 'a terrible shock, although not injured. Kevel Nirenstein, who boards with him, was in one of the upstair rooms, with a baby, and Thom- aras opened the dgor immediately, and shouted to Nirenstein, asking him if they had escaped. Nirehstein answered that they had escaped, came down; and | then the two started an investigation. The explosion was a most terrific one, the flooring Ln torn up and strewn all over the fldor, and mixed up in it, all } a tangled mass, was the furniture, stove, and every article in the room. Every- | thing was in a topsy turvy state. Ai small fire started in the ruins, but this 'was extinguished before it made any headway. Nearly all the plaster was knocked off tlie walls, and large holes were made in the ceiling. Every win- dow on the one side of the house was shattered, and some of the windows in the house next door, were also broken. A small room leading to the kitchen was also badly damaged, the door be- ing taken 'clear off its hinges. There was no damage in any of 'the other rooms. The explosion could be heard some distance, and attracted quite a large crowd to the scene, many of whom waited around until late in the evening. Mr. Thomaras has lived in the house for about two. years, renting it from Andrew Mills. "An investigation will, no doubt, be made to see what was the cause of the accident. It appears that the stove om previous Owtasons, has given some trouble. Mr. Thomaras is to-day congratula- ting himself on the very narrow escape hie had, as, had he been in the kitchen at the time. he would, no doubt, have met a horrible death, and he states that it was his imi®ntion to go into the kit- chen. The explosion stopped him on his way. "1 was just about to so into the door when 1 heard the awful crash," said Mr. Thomaras to a Whig ¥evorter, who was on the seene. immediately after the affair occurred. 1 knew that Mr. Nirenstein: and the baby were inside, and 1 was afraid they Had been injured. When 1 found that they had escaped, | was very thankful. They were indeed very lucky to escape the way they did." Mr. Nirenstein and the baby were in a room directly above the kitchen, and both suffered a severc shock. \ Fresh vaccine at Wade's.
