The Engineer reported that the cabmen were within their rights in standing on nce street, between King and Ontario. F. W..Cooke had registered a protest against the cab- men standing in front of his store, as he claimed it was detrimental to his business. It was found that this block was included in the cab stand area. Authority was given the City Engi- neer to purchase the necessary tarvia for the roads. All those treated last year will require another dose this year. The street watering area was fix- 'ed as the same as last year. 'Some additions may be made as applica- tions are received. R. E. Genge applied for permission to build an extension to his verandah on Clergy street. The Engineer re- ported that his present verandah en- croached on the street, and that he could not grant the ermission. The Board concurred with the Engineer. Lawrence Joyce, Charles street, asked permission to erect a varandah over the street line. The Engineer will make a report. General Manager Folger of the Utilities advised the Board to buy a 550-volt motor for the road-paving plant instead of one of 2,200 volts, as the latter would be dangerous to unskilled workmen. The Board de- cided to accept Mr. Folger's advice. The contract was awarded to W. J. Moore & Sons. The Property Committee will be asked for permission to place the Board's road-paving plant in the fair grounds. In attendance were Alds.

Who is With the he RAM.C. at Salon. iks=Troops Continue to Arrive at That Mediterranean Port, Writing from Salonika, Greece, Lieut. W. A. Smith, formerly of Kingston, who is with the Royal Ar- my Medjcal corps, says that March 6th the Greeks had not fully evacuated that place although they were there in insignificant numbers. e French seemed to be the leaders in putting the Greeks in their place, although they did not move along with alacrity. About a month pre- vious, the French took Karaburun, a fort, overlooking Salonika harbor, not however without a show of force. A few guns were fired over the fort. The Greeks rushed out, and: the French rushed in and took posses- sion, There is the best of spirit between the French and the English, and the cheerfulness of both is remarkable, Lieut. Smith says. The. British Tommy says, "the more you put down the more there is to pick up." The men in Lieut, Smith's unit, how- ever, say while this may be genmer- ally true yet they do not find it so. For instance, one may not put down a broom for a minute and expect to find it when be returns. The writer says the weather is great at Salonika; in fact the camp ground is strewn with wild flowers a variety of crocus. A month or so ago it was bad, while not very cold, yet quite damp. Some of the troops were encamped in old ceme- teries a mile or, so out from town. During the damp time the Tommies would sleep on nice, soft, overthrown tombstones to be out of the wet. There was little doing there just now and duty work was monotonous, quite different, from what Lieut. Smith had in France. 'The troops keep moving Salonika way; what is up I do not know." Recruits Wanted. Major Allan Stroud, of the Mount- ed Rifles, Hamilton, is in the city until Friday to secure recruits to re- place the men who are going over- seas.

The Racking Pains of ti" > Sciatic Rheumatism Were Well-nigh Unbearable After FivdY ears of Suffer- ing Cure Was Effected by Dr. Chase's Medicines. For NE. excruciating pain few ailments can be compared to sciatic rheumatism, Since this condi. tion of the sciatic nerve denotes ex- haustion of the nervous system, the logical cure is found in the use of Dr. Chase's Nerve Food to nourish the starved nerves back to health and vigor' Reports are continually coming in to us regarding the splendid results obtained in the treatment of sciatic rheumatism by using Dr. Chase's Nerve Food after each meal and Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills occasion- ally as a means of arousing the action- of the liver; kidneys and bowels and thereby keeping the sys- tem freed of pain causing poisonous impurities. W. J. Talbot, Edenwold, Sask., writes: --"It is a great pleasure for me to recommend Dr. Chase's Kid- ney-Liver Pills and Nerve Food as a cure for Sciatic Rheumatism, The pain I have suffered has been well- nigh unbearable, It would start in the hips and run down the legs to the toes, gradually gefting worse. The nerves contract until one is practically useless. My doctor tried many different treatments, but could only afford relief for a time. "For about five years I was sub- ject to this trouble with severe at- tacks which would last about two months. The last attack I had was shortened to two weeks by the use of Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills and Nerve Food. This treatment was con- tinued until I was satisfied that the cure was lasting."

The chevalier of the Legion of Honor bestowed on the late Capt. the French say, "Legion D'Honneur," has arrived in the city for the family of the deceased Kingston officer, and is on view at Rodger's jewelry store on Princess street.

Stanley Trotter, president of the City Baseball League, has called the annual meeting for Tuesday evening in the YM.C.A parlors. At this meeting the election of officers will take place. Stanley Trotter has been the moving spirit of city baseball for the past three years and the members of the executive are hop- ing that he will still continue to hold office. On account of it being so early in the season, it is almost impossible to say what teamrs will enter the ser- ies, but it is expected that Victorias, Ponies, Athletics and Queen's may enter teams. There was some talk of the soldiers entering the series but nothing definite is known. TO CREMATE THE GARBAGE OF KINGSTON. Toronto Foreman To Be Brought Here To See if the Garbage Can Be Burned Without Using Wood. "I am ashamed to be a member of a committee that has anything to do with the burning of so much wood in the incinerator, but still one must do his duty," said Ald. H. W. New- man at a meeting of the Garbage Commiittee on Wednesday evening. Ald. G. Wright, the chairthan, was also present at the meeting. The question of burning wood came up for discussion after thc In- spector had submitted his report. It was decided, on' Ald. Newman's sug- gestion, that Mr. Basley, a foreman at Toronto west end incinerator, be brought to the ¢ity next week and explain how to run the civic garbage crematory without fuel expense. "It is being done in Toronto," said 'Ald. Newman. On motion of 'Ald. Newman, the salary of John Doolan, the Bagot street dump trimmer, was increased from $1.25 to $1.50 a day. The report of Inspector Timmer- man was as follows: "During March there has been col- lected and taken to the incinerator 502 loads of garbage and 81 loads of rubbish. There was one load of garbage and four loads of rubbish less collected than in the previous month. .
