The Lampman notes that Councilman Harrison complained: that- the town fathers deliberately voted hall re- bates in spite of the by-law about which only a fortnight before, it made a loud noise. in favor of keep- ing. The councillors break their own laws with as much unconcern as they break the Ten Commandments. Ss Th According to the government tests the foreigners among the Kingston tradesmen make and sell pure ice eream. This is a feather in the cap of the foreign element, who were found not guilty of adulteration a: several ice cream vendors were. The Lampmanu thought that the firemen were engaged by the chief to fight fires and not to inspect back yards to see that refuse is carted away. The fireman, as well 43 "Nick" Timmerman, must have tech- nical knowledge as to when a vard is clean, If three firemen 'can bo spared from the brigade for thre weeks, it appears to the Lampiaan that there was no need of increasing the brigade as was done last year. As the average man of the house detests the period of house-cleaning, the mayor's additional proclamation to '"'clean up" must have given father a terrible shock. The Lampman, with others, proceeded early with his yard cleaning, and did not wait for the campaign inaugurated for the "great unwashed," viz., those who do not know enough to clean up without being coaxed and then forced. With reference to the "clean up' Campaign, the Lampman noticed in the Whig of Tast Saturday two head- lines side by fide which read as fol- lows: "The Qhurch Pulpits--Clegn Up! Clean Up! Get All Refuse Ready for the Dump.' Hard on the pulpits? a ; A college professor who xead th: Lampman's comment on "'churca coughing" last week, told him that the fault was generally with the speaker in the pulpit or on the plat: form. He has noticed that when 5 gathering can distinctly hear what the speaker is saying and when its attention is rivetted upon him, there is scarcely a cough to be heard. When the people cannot hear, 'and when they lose tart. 1 a fant that a good deal of coughing occurs, He found this out himself years ago, and was always careful to get the attention of his hearers at the very outset and to retain it.' When an audience is wearied and restless, look out for coughing. The other day the Lampman met a legal gentleman who was Severe in his criticism of people who used such abominable colors as brown and red on their window sashes. White, he said, is the proper color for a sash, both inside and out. Just notice, he remarked, how white sets off tho windows in a house. The Lampman agreed that the modern window painting was not as chaste as in the past when all the sashes were doane in white. ~ It has struck the more than one occasion that the action of a certain institution in sending broadcast invitations to its graduating ceremonies, and hiring 2 hall that would not hold more than about half of those invited, was like asking twenty guests to dinner and having only seats and grub endugh for ten. _He notices that the function Lampman on Csoene of an important wniversity fone the other night was changed to a bigger hall at the last moment. It occurred to the Lampman that if all those ladies and gentlemen who delight in painting flowers on cups and saucers would use their painting ability in brightening up the front steps, the portico and th fence, their labours would be wort while. It's a funny thing that some of the fancy painting enthusiasts have shabby home surroundings and fll-kept lawns. Their eye for the beautiful should be exercised first at home, ~--~THE TOWN WATCHMAN. CANAL COST IN LIVES, Death Roll in Panama Numbers 2, 190. Washington, May 16.--Representa- tive George M. Young, of North Da- kota, revived the "Free Tolls" fight in the House of Representatives by declaring that the cost of the: Pa- nama capal should not be measured alone by the $300,000,000 which the United States had expended on the enterprise, but it must be taken in- to consideration that more American lives have been sacrificed in con- structing the big ditch than were lost in the revolution, or during the war of 1812 and the Mexican "war combined. : Quoting from statistics compiled (Continued from e 3.

Clark Murray, emeritus pro- fessor" of moral philosophy at MeGall, and the handing over of his portrait to the university. Some time ago a ibovement was started by some of Dr Murray's old students and friends to gollect subscriptions for the painting of his portrait by Robert Harris, CM. G., R.C.A. It met with such a hearty response that after defraying the cost of the portrait and of the illuminated #tldress the committee had in hand a balance of $1,008, which they decided to hand over to the McGill library as a "Clark Murray" fund, to be ap- plied to the purchase of books for the phitosophival depa¥tment which Dr. Murray organized and of which le was for forty years the hopored head Died in New York.
