R. 8. Forneri's Brotherin-Law Passed Away in Toronto. Thomas Spooner, a former resident of Sunbury, died at the home of his daughter, in Chicago, on Thursday. The deceased was about - seventy-five years of age, and had been ill about five weeks. Ile was born at Sunbury, and lived there, following the occupa- tion of a farmer; until eighteen years ago, when the family removed to Chi- cago, where they have resided ever singe.

The socialist city council plan ned to supply the citiens of this thriving port with at least one ne ces ity of winter life without the addition of middlemen's profits. Unfortunately, the venture did not get properly started, else' it might Inve provided an i'uwstration either #8 a success to be emulated or a fail tre to be shunned. The munikpal fa thers were uwvable to get the supply of coal from the wholesalers, who had all they could do to satisfy the demand from their regular all-yea: customers in the coal business. A further diffoully was encountered i the claim that it was umconstitu tional for a municipality to engag: in the retail business. The whole salers, accordingly, were naturally cau tiors about opening an account shipping coal for which they might be unable to colleet. later on. Price of Food Soars, Chicago Tribune, Alter the ammouncement of the ac quittal of the packers to-day the prie of provisions advanced all round, The rise was 15 cents for pork and bacor avd 74 to 10 cents for lard. The ad dition to the cost of packing-hous products was attributed on 'change t active covering by shorts and to sym pathy with the bulge in the price o corn. Swift & Co. shaves advanced '121 points on the Chicago Stock Ex change an hour before the verdict. Af ter the jury had come in, a furthe: jump upward occurred, making wn to tal advanee of 6 points. Need Move Pavements. The fact that the city engineer had men engoged cleaning off the pave ment on King street early on Frila morning, wus dhe onuse of mach fa vorakle comment. "It's too bad the city has not more pavements," re marked a citicen to the Whig, to dav. "MH there were pavements of all the down-town streeis it woul not take very long to get them inte good shape after the snow disap joars." Crowds Turned Away.

Dr. A. MN. Rosebrugh, of Toronto, cn Lehalf of the Ontao Society for the Reformation (of Inebriates, writes to the press of Uanada, in part as follows : The present sems an time for calling attention to the opportune iberal manner in which the imperial gov pnt favors the reformation of | inepTiates--an example which we, in | pednada, might follow with profit: King George V, when I'rinoe of | Wales, upon his return from his first | visit to Paria, is reported to have said: "Wake up, England." When it| comes to the knowledgh of the vice tegent in Canada, that we have no public institutions here for the refor- mation of the unfortunate inebriate, it is quite conceivab.e that he mignt te impelled to say, with regard to this sad defect : "Wake ap, Can- ada." The Ontario government has already made an enviable reputation in the domain of prison reform. Ite methods | of eering for dest tute" nnd delinquent children is not merely up-to-date, but actually leads the world, and the ex- traordinary sucess thal has attended the experiment of exchanging eell-life for farm-life for first offenders is the wonder and admiration of a.l penolo- wists who have. visited the prison farm at Guelph. Nothing has as yet been done, how- ever, in ihe direction of furnishing reformatory treatment for inebriates, In thy year I8YS an sct was adop- ted in Great Britain called "I'he Ip- ebriates'Act of 1898." This aet pro- yides that when a reformatory for inebriates established by a coun. ty or a group of counties and cer- Afied to by the governmemt inspec tor, it becomes a "Uertified Reforma- tory" under the act, and the entire expense of maintenance is assumed by the government. This generosity on the part of the government has accomplished what it was designed to accomplish--namely, it has promoted the establishment of reformatories in the United Kingdom ~in England alone there being now ten "Certified Reformatovies." where as there were two only before the act came into operation. Not only so, but two governmental reformatorigs have also been established--one for men and one for women--for the custodial care of incorrigible eases removed from the certified reformatories where they have failed to respond to re- formatory treatment, and have not been amenable td discipline. For a number of years the inspector of prisons and charities for Ontario has been urging the Toronto city an- thorities to make more adequate pro- vision for jail prisoners, "After this long delay, however, action has final ly been taken, A farm of over 400 acred has been purchased, and will be fitted up as a reformatory farm eol- ony for 'inebriates with special ar- rangements for scientific medical treatment. £4 This action on the part of the city ~though long dela is most geati- fying, as such an institution, proper- ly managed, should be the means of is 5 Something New for Spring.

(Aart restoring to useful citizenship a good perceniage of the more hofefal class of cases, and moreover, should serve as_an object lesson for other amunici- ities, and for the government, as well. The question arises, however, tory for inebriates fall upon ae rate: payers of the municipality w it is established ?
