The question of a subway for the Montreal Road crossing, over the Gi. T. R., was discussed at a joint meet- ing of the finance committee and the 'board of works held yesterday after- noan, the matter having been referred to the two committees, at the meet- ing of the city council, on Monday night, Mayor Couper occupied the chair, and also present were Alds, Carson, McCann, Toye, Kent, Hoag, Chown, Graham, Elliott and Harty. When the question was introduced by Mayor Couper, Ald. Chown said that the question to be first consider- ed, was that brought before the coun- report that reported, the G. T. R., so it was proposed making a change cinity of the crossing, in order to do away with the heavy grade. He was of the same opinion as that the city and county should act together, ana ascertain the poliey of the company on the matter. He ask- ed for information from City Solicitor McIntyre, who was present. Mr. Mcintyre stated that Ald. Nie- kle- had also asked him concerning the matter. He saia that in May, 1903, pany diverting the road, and at that time, it had been considered unwise to take up the question of a subway, if the company intended making any change. He was in communication with the Grand Trunk solicitors at ed, wax that the company had not a Ald. Chown referred to the great change made by the company on the roadway near Belleville and felt sure the company intended doing something to do away with the grade near Kingston. He desired to have the company written shout the mat- ter. Ald. Elliott informed the members that this same question had been tak- en up with the company by Ex-Mayor Mowat. The members of the committee were unanimous on the one point, and that was that the level crossing should be better protected, but the main ques: tion 'appeared to be in' regard to. the ways and means to be- taken, to bring about this much-rieeded: protection. Ald. Kent said that = the council should never allow the question of the proposed changing. - of the route ta drop, as the city was losing money by not having the railway touch in the city. This point should be accom- plished, even if the city had to pay for it. . In regard to the protection of the crossing, Ald. Carson said that he understood the G. T. R. were about to place a night-wdtchman at the crossing. The committee motion, framed by Ald. Chown, to this effect: That the city solicitor be instructed to correspond with the secretary of the railway commission, pointing out the necessity of proba- ble changes in the line, in the. vicini- tv of Kingston, and the large amount of money expended in . construction work for similar changes on the road, between Kingston. and: Toronto, since the order-in-council was made, and advising that the committee is taking up the matter with the G. T. R., as to the probable diversion of the line, and ana asking that the order-in-council, calling for better protection, be deferred until the com- the meantime, temporary precaution be taken to have the crossing protect- ed. It was reported that a subway would cost between $25,000 or $30,000. The committee also decided to have the city solicitor communicate the Grand Trunk on the question. Ald._Elliott said that he did not like Vthe idea of having the matter "held up' as it were. What if there should be another accident at this crossing in the meantime ? He was anxious that steps be taken at once, to have a night watchman appointed, to guard the crossing. He wanted mavor to get in touch with the coun- ty and G.T.R., and arrange for the placing of a man at the crossing at at nights. Another matter taken up by the committee, was that of the applica- tion of the Canadian Locomotive com- pany, for the leasing of some land, 0902 LRLLRLLLLLLRLGRBTRE | CONTENTME : 1S A PRIZE Secure it by buying A Home We have them in any locality or at any price. ¢ : ¢ ¢ If you want a new § t-room Dwelling with ¢ a lot 60x 135 and a barn, look at 154 York St., west of Division."

This ground the com- pany wish to lease. C. Bermingham and the company's solicitor, J. L. Whiting, appeared before the commit- information desired. The sewer running over this land desired at once, brought about a dis- {cussion, and Mr. Bermingham said { that one proposition was to divert the | sewer along Ontario street, to Wil- liam, the company to pay the cost. The city engineer had, however, an- other plan considered to be a better What Beautiful Hair !

The com- pany would be willing to pay the es- timated cost, placed at $3,500. The company preferred to have the sewer off the premises. The members looked upon the offer as a most liberal one. The question was then raised bf Ald. Kent, as to how long the city would have to remove the drain, and Mr. Bermingham remarked that June 1910 should be ample time. The engi- neer looked upon a year, as sufficient to do the work. The matter whs finally disposed of hy the committee passing a resolution framed by the city solicitor, to { effect : "This committee recommends the passing of a by-law and taking of all necessary steps to vest in the com- pany fee simple, all that part of Earl street and land covered by water ly- ing east * of 'Ontario street, 552 feet more or less, to a point in line with the eastern limit of the wharf line of the company, and within the pro- longation easterly of the north and south limits of Earl street, and that the city solicitor be requested to take the necessary steps, and that the locomotive works pay to the corpor- ation, $3,500 to go towards the cost of the diversion of the Karl street drain." ' A special meeting of the council will be held on Friday night to take up the committee's recommencation. POLLING PLACES. Where By-Law Will Be Voted on on Thursday.

Stevenson and Rev. C. H. Shortt, Were the Speakers Last Night--A Fine Meeting. Most inspiring were the addresses delivered at last night's session of the Missionary Institute, hold in the subool room of Sydenham Strect Me- thodist church, and which was quite largely attended. Rev. CC. A. Svkes presided, and the opening prayer was { offered by /R. B. Nelles. Addresses were given by Rev. F. W. | Anderson, M.A., Toronto, on "The Young People's Missionary ment; by Rev. F. C. Stevenson, M.D. Toronto, on "Stewardship Of Money, Time and Talent," and by Rev. C. H. Shortt, of Tokio, Japan, who dealt with missionary work in that country. The addresses were of a most interest. ing nature, and the meeting proved a most helpful one for the workers. Rev. J. G. Brown, D.D., of Toronto, was 10 have given an address, but was un- able, much to ihe regret of all the workers, to be presenti, his duties oc- capying his attention in another field. In dealing with missionary work, Rev. Mr. Anderson referred to the great effort put forth in recent years, by the churches for the great cause of missions. Mission- ary work was in catching the spirit of God; and following out His command. We, as God's disciples, were given tho responsibility of earrying along the work. If we could not go to the mis- sionary field, we should do all in our power to assist all who could go to take up the work. We all stood under an obligation for world-wide evangeli- zation. Reference was made to the noble work of the Students' Volunteer Movement, and the Laymen's Mission- ary Movement, which was composed of the ""hard-headed" business men, Both organizations were doing noble work. Rev, F. C. Stevencon followed, with hie address on "Stewardship of Money, Time and Talent." He said we must realize that we are stewards of time, and consider what we would do with tha time at our disposal. A great many opportunities presented them- selves in the world, but many did not know what they would set about to do; they appeared to live with ro special object in life, and if asked the question, "What are you on carth for?" they could not answer. It was now time that the churches aroused. 'In many cases, it was found that churches were "run down," ms it were, through lack of stewardship. Perhaps: the reat fault was in rot having the little things well done. The same energy hould be put into mis- sionary work, as in our own business. If our own business was so neglected, 't would certainly go to picces within six months. Business talent should be shown in the work. And then there was the stewardship f money. We should keep a record f aur giving, and in this way = seg f we were giving enough. Some peo- dle endeavored to see with just . how wtle they could give and get along. "And then some say that they have wo talent," added the speaker. shat you have and you will more. Our time, talent and method will depend on whether we are stew- wds of Ged. It 1s a wonderful hing to he a trusted agent of God." Rev. CC. H. Shortt spent eight years n missionary work in Japan and lealt with work earried on there. Jue question he said was often . ask- d, and it was this, 'Is it not time hat we had finished with Japan; is t not time that we turned to save ome other field ?"' This idea, the peaker said; was a great mistake, as here was plenty of work to - be lene - there for years to come. It wal winted out by some that the work' ad been carried on there for a long ime, ahd that the battle had been ractically won: This was a false dea, but not an unnatural one. There vas yet great work to be done. It i the missionaries io build up the hation, and not to ull it down, and to give them some; hing they had not. The speaker asked for prayer he great work. "We are only your 'epresentatives,"' he added, "or as someone has put it, the 'finger tips' of he church. What is to be done must e done by your prayers." | The meeting was brought to a close vith the benediction, pronounced anon Starr. "Use get for by Kingston's Famous Fur Store.

We have read every side of the Worm- with by-law issue, except the employ: ees' side, and 1 would like to say a mechanics in general, of whom a large number are frecholders, as to why they should look favorably on the by-law. In the first place, when a number of men are thrown out in one line of trade, and it is the only kind of its line in the .city, it means that many of them will be forced into oth- er works, thus, in a certain measure, glutting the labour market and mak- ing it the more difficult for others to get employment. When a large num- ber are employed in the factory, for the whole year, it stands to reason that they do not live to themselves alone, they benefit all mechanics by removing that number from a pos- sible invasion of their line. Every man employed in the factory is a native horn Kingstonian, and only asks a chance to receive employment in his own city and not to be forced to re- move. All have grown to look on Kingston as home for all time. I write this in the hope that fellow 'mechanics will look favorably on the by-law on the 4th. As an own- er, I will say that I will be reluctant- ly forced to sell should the by-law not carry.--F. J. SALSBURY.
