Summary of Other Reports. The waterworks committed's recom- 200 fest of thirty-inch suction pipe nd the laying oof the same, was adopted, This has reference to ihe acing of the old piece of the in- take pipe, near the e, which is leaking. The council adopted the board of works' recommenda that a new cabstand area be established on the north side of Clarence street, from ing that the Xe and | stand area on the south side Clarence street, from Ontarip = street westerly, cut off from the ecabstand area the city. < '(he recommendation of the light, heat and power committee 'and the fire and light committee, that a * by- law be prepared for the . raising debentures. of $13,000 for improved and atitional street lighting, was adopt- A by-law to raise 83,600 by de- bentures for the extension of Darrie street, from Quebec to Pine streets, was give a second reading. The peo- ple will vote on this by-law in Janu- ary. Ald. Hoag's Motion Beaten. and seconded by Ald. Harrison, that the city solicitor take the necessary steps to have repealed "the special act pass ed by the Ontario legislature, provid- ing for a three-year term for King- ston aldermen, and that the old term of one year be re-established. ; Ald. Hoag, in the preamble to his resolution, stated that the three-year term has proved destructive. to the majftenance of a healthy public in- terest in civic afiairs, and had des- troyed the morale of the council. He claimed also that it had resulted in the failure of aldermen to discharge their duties in committee or In council. It exempts aldermen for an undue period in submitting their pub- lic acts to their constituents for con firmation. Ald. Eliott thought that Ald. Hoag should give some valid reasons for his resolution, and not put it to a vote in a haphazard way. ' Ald, Hoag replied that under the three-year term the affairs of the city were not given the 'attention they were under the one-year aldermanic term. The ~ people, also, under the three-year term were not taking the interest in civic affairs that they used to. He was convinced that the peo ple wanted the change, apd, there lore, he introduced the resolution. Ald. Elliott said that from his ex- perience, the third-year term was an provement. over the old one-year term. He cited this 'ag an example :~ A committee appointed gver: the light plant, wien its memburs were elected as aldermen for three years, was on improvement on the commission met- hod of managing a public utility. He himself had been chairman of the light plant for two years, and he had time to study the .plant thoroughly. Ald. Elliott also claimed that there was a better control over council affairs by the threegear term. There was a con tinuity in the condget of the city's affairs, The argiment that better men were secured undér the one-year' term was not correct. The' attenddnce of members of this commitfes had been very sezulor all through .t ear. was a direct advantage 16 the city to have the three-year term remain as it is at present. All. Hong's resolution was on this division: _ Jean-Ala; Givens; Harrison, Hoag, Nays--~Mayor Cou 'and Alds, Armstrong, Bailey, Carson, Chown, Clugston, Elliott, Harty, Kent, Me- Cany, MoKay, Robertson, Toye. --13. Ald. Graham had retired before the question Came up. In view ob the vole on the three vear term yuestion, Ald, Harrison said he would not move his resolution to rotiuce the aldermen fron {wegty-one to fourteen, as it really dependhd up- on the other motion being succéasful. He yuoted. figures to show $hat places about the size of Kingston had far smaller hombers of aldormen. When Ald Wong's motion was feated, Ald, Elliott called out: trot on your other resolution." Ald. Hoag plainly told somo of the aldermen that they were afraid to face their constituents every year. That was why, he said, they favored a three-year term. is resolution moved by Al. Arm- strong, seconded Ly All Carson, re ceived the unaminous stipport of the council: -- "Whereas, under the assessment act real property owned by certain insti: tutions but occupied Hv tenants and lessees are exempt from taxation: And whereas such a condition of affairs re- sults in an unequal and unjust distri defentod Ae Now mendation that tenders be called for | UP-TO-DATE HEAVY SHOES for Women For Street Wear PAGE FIVR. 1 Heavy Calf, Heavy Kid, bution of the burden of taxation: Be it therelore resolved: -- "That the Provincial Legislature be memorialized to pmend section 5 subsection 9 by adding thereto the fol- lowing words:i~--so long as such real property is actually used and oecopied by such institution Jit mot if occupied by any person as tepant or lessee, So that said subsection 9 shall vead as follows: 9.

Armstrong, instructing F. Nickle, M.P.P., to arrange for a hear- ing of deputation in support of the aove resolution, and that the mayor, A¥is. Armstrong and Carson and the city solicitor compose the deputation to wait upon the government in re gard to it. 'TWAS A FINE EVENT. Dance at Orpheum Hall Given by Iroquois Club. The Orpheum hall was filled by a merry crowd of dancers, on Monday svening when the members of the Iroquois = club - cothpé of 'well known young men, the city, ' held their first annual damee, It was a decided success . from every stand point. About ond hundred and seven- y-five people. were in attendance and with the excellent programme which was provided, everyone had a' jolly time. The floor was in splendid * con- dition, and a programme of 'choice music was rendered by the R.C.H.A. orchestra. There were a number of popular selections and the members of the orchestra excelled themselves in the way in which they rendered them. There were sixteen numbers, with as many encores, and when the "Home Sweet Home" waltz came about one o'clock it. was a tired but very happy crowd: which filed out of the room. The end came all too soon for the affair was voted one of the best ever held in the city. The members of the club, who had the arrangements in charge, are deserving of great praise, for the details eould not have been improved upon. The dancing music in- cluded the following numbers : Gar den of Roses, Cubanola Glide, Tickle Toes, Arcadians, Hello People, Merry Widow, Marceline, Bridal Veil, Vision go Salome, What's the Matter With 'ather, Garden of Dr , Rings On My Fingers, Villia, Turkey ne the Straw, Some Day, When Dreams Come True, Home Sweet Home.

Sullivan, B. Tierney, J. Toppings, C. Lee and E. Martin. It is the wish of the many who were presént that the boys will hold several more dances during the winter season, The following visitors were in the city for the dance : From Gananoque, W. J. O'Brien, FP. Gillespie and W, Hifferman; from Napanee, Miss Nellie Matthewson, Miss Fannie Savage, M. Oldfin, P. J. Nolan and W. Savage. ------ The British Elections.

Matter Taken up at Meeting Kings- ton Poor Relief Association-- Capitalists to be Urged to Erect Houses--Encouraging Reports Re- celved at Meeting. There was a very good attendance at the amnual meeting of the King- ston Poor Relief Association, which was held, ou Monday afternoon, the city council chamber, Mayor Coup- er presided. Miss Machar, the secretary, present. ed a report, which was adopted, and which gave a review of the work of the year. She referved to the fact that the work during the past year, had been much lighter, the demand for as- sistance last winter being far less than a year ago. The winter was milder. Two years ago, there were some soven- ty cases on the list, while a year ago, there were only fifty-five. Of this num ber, about twenty-five were English immigrants, and recent arrivals. There were some city people on the list too. It was 5 source of great satisfaction to know that a great many who had been on the list for support, in form or. years, were pow supporting them- selves, and that they made no demand whatever, on the society. e were a number of aged people who were in of help, and the hope was expressed that the government would do something in the line of an old age pension. An important mat. ter was touched upon by the secretary asking that some action be taken for the training of children, whose par ents appeared in the criminal courts, There was much trouble mn this line, in all the Canadian cities. As regards the collections on behalf of the association, they had been up to the average, and thanks were ex- tended to the donors and the collec tors, for their assistance, The committee had Leen doing all the work it was possible to do, amd it would not be too much to say, that during the hall century' the as- rociation had been in existence, it had saved the city many hundreds of dol. lars, and had kept many people from teing paupers. It was pointed out that there were some slums in the city, There were some homes in which it would He impossible to live a clean. wholesome Ii. These ought to le | proted out, However, the scarcity of houses had to be considered. There was a great demand for houses for tha poorer classes, and it was a matter which should be taken up. The report of Miss Machar was adopted with a unanimous vote, the mombers voicing the suggestions made in the latter part of it. The report presented vy the treasur er, Miss Holt, was a most encourag ing one. It showed recéipts totalling , 3631.36 and disbursements, at 2572.52 { leaving a balance of 2°8.84 ; Canon Starr said that "he felt sure that he would express the fecling of all present, in on reference to the good {reports of the secretary and treasur- fer. It was most unusual, he said fo the treasurer of a poor relief associa. tion, to have a balance on hand. It | showed that the work had been in careful hands, and that every preeau tion had been taken to handle the finances carefully. He wished to con gratulate all the officers of the so ciety on their good work. As regards the suggestion of secretéry, that something be done in the way of providing houses for the poorer classes, Canon Starr stated that this was one of the most import. ant things which confronted the city. today. The need was for the indus trious poor, especially. There had been a demand for such hotses for many years, and he was in hope that some capitalists could be interested in the matter, so an to take it up. Rev. Dr. Macgillivray pointe! ont that the fact' that the demand for as sistance last vear, was Jess than the year before. indicated two things, het ter times for the poor, and more thrifi among themselves. This should be en- couraged. The report. also showed that some people receiving help from the association for years, were now sup porting themselves. This too, was » sien of great progress. Mayor Couper took occasion to ron: gratulate the ladies on 'Lair good work, He was vleased to know they bad a cond balance on the right side of the ledger. He pointed owt that last winter be, as head of the cite had not had ax many applications for assistance as the vear previous, and he thought that the association wonld also have a similar report fo make. Dein Pidwell thought that the mild winter of last rear might have had something to do with this. In bis closing paid a warm tribute to of Miss Wucklgston, the the per work On motion of Rev.

SD and Dean Bidwell a vote of thanks was tendered to the president, officers and the committee. These members were ever thinking of the poor amd ever ready to auswer the endl of dis- tress. Dean Bidwell referred to the great need of a central office in the city, where men wanting work could apply. Fmployers of labor would then have a place to go to. Prof. A. Laird said that E. F. Trimble, secretary of the Y.M.CA, had been looking -after the placing of men, and he had no doubt but that he could be secured to look after some of the work. Rev. T. E. Bourke stated that it would be well to have a central office for this work, They would be doing A man more good by offering him a job to earn a half dollar than to give him the price without asking him to do any work, On motion of Miss Muckleston it was decided that the intustrial Son tee; com of Rev. n Bi Rev. ri are, Tov P. Bourke, W. $¢ Crothers and T, Harrison look after this matter. As regards the system of giving out charity Canon Starr paid a warm tribute to Miss Alice Chown who, he said, had worked out a fine system, which did away with any over-lapping in the giving out of assistance. On the recommendation of Dean Bid- well, who is anxious that something be done in the way of providing homes for the poorer classes, a com mittee: was appointed to look up sta: tistics on this matter and to investi- ate the situation. Dean Bidwell will the convenor of the committee, The election of officers resulted as follows : President, Miss Muckleston; vice: presidents, Mrs. Mowat, Mrs. Rich- mond, Mrs. Oberndocfler and Miss Strange; secretary, Miss Machar; treasurer, Miss Holt. The collectors were also appointe] to secure the usual subscriptions. Fr. "\_ Favor Bathing Houses. At the meeting of the Kingston Re- lief Assotistion, Monday afternoon, Canon Starr brought up the matter of having bathing houses so that the boys ani girls of the city could learn the art of swimming, and the meeting placed itself on record as being in fa- vor of the erection of such buildipgs. t will be that the matter was brought up in the council, by Mayor Couper, and that the scheme is to be considered the coming season.
