ISPARKERS CAUSE ROLE BY FLYING OUT OF SMOKESTACK AT CITY'S INCINERATOR, Utilities Commission Asked That City Council Take Adequate Steps to P'revent Fires Which Occur From Time to Time--Public Hezlth Committee to Take Up Matter, "How to prevent "sparking' at the 's incinerator.' is the problem that Ald. H. W ian chairman "of the Public h Committee, and his colleagues on their hands: referred to is not of the Kind t goes on in the city parks. If such was the case all Ald. Newman could do is call on the police to scat- ter the "loye-makers." This partie- ular kind of "sparking" has to de with the big, tall chimney on the city's incinerator. In spite of the fact that a hood was placed on the top of it some time ago, to prevent parks from coming out and dropping on nearby buildings, a few sparks come out and started a lively blaze on some sheds nearby. The fire men have heen called to the vicinity on several occasions, and it is fear- that if rection not taken, a serious fire will occur, The matter came before the Civie Utilities Commission, at # meeting held on Monday afternoon, and it was decided that steps w:ust be taken to protect the property adioining the incinerator, and with this ead in view, the commission forwarded a letter to the City Council, asking that body to take adequate steps to pre- vent fires. This letter was read to the aldermen at the special meeting of the Council on Tuesday night, and Mavor Hughes, who 'was present at the meeting of the commisssion, also spoke about the matter It was de- cided to have the Public Health Committee, take up the matter at once, It is believed that the bachelor chairman of the Public Health Com- mittee will he able to get after the "sparkers' so that they will not cause iny further trouble. A suggestion which has been made by Commissioner R. F. Elliott, and which: i§ regarded as a good one, is that an arrester be placed lower down in the smokestack, which would prevent burning rags and pa- pers making their way out of the stack. It is likely that action will be taken to secure the much needed ar- rester. : ' QUAKER REFUSED TO. DON THE KHAKI And Was Brought to the "Pen" to Serve Two Years at Hard Labor. High Chief Constable Benjamin Watteréworth, of London, arrived in the city with Pte, Mabley, a Quaker, who was sentenced to two years, at hard labor, in the penitentiary, as a conscientious objector, Pte. Mabley was tried by district court-martial, as a conscientious objettor, and his sentence was read ont on parade, be- fore the assembled 1st Battalion. His is the first case in Western Ontario of a Quaker objecting to niilitary ser- vice. A short time ago another Qua- ker was permitted to go to the Unit- ed States, to join a non-combatant Quaker unit there, Mabley would not go into a non-combatant unit, it is alleged, because he might thereby release some other man to undertak: combatant service. MARRIED ON TUESDAY. | Miss Kelso the Bride of William War. ner. A very pretty but quiet wedding took place on Tuesday morning, when Miss Irene Marion Kelso was united in marriage to William Warner, son of Mr. and Mrs. Myers Warner. King- stn, late of Yarker.

Her picture hat was also touched with pink. The bride was attended by Miss 'Bessie Coyle, gowned in sand silk, with hat to match; the groom by the brother of the bride, Albert Kelso. After the ceremony the guests partook of a dainty luncheon served on the lawn. Mr. and Mrs. Warner left on the noon train for Peterboro and points west The bride travelled in a mauve and white voile dress and Queen Anne hat.

ARTISAN ACTING CHIEF NESBITT TO PRO- SECUTE IN LIQUOR CASES, Further Information to Be Secured Before By-law on Agreement Cove ering New Bathing House Is Pass- od -- Special lieeting Tuesday Night. At a special meeting of the City Council, held on Tuesday night, a by- law was passed, appointing the acting chief of police Robert Nesbitt, to act as inspector for the city, in lodging the complaints coming under the Ontario Temperance Aet. The Act calls upon the city to appoint an in- spector to lodge tiiese charges, There was a by-law to this effect, but it passed out of existence with the death of the late Chief William Bail- lie.' There has to be a by-law of this character, in order that the fines im- posed in cases laid by the police can be handed over to the eity., Other- wise, the money would find its way into the provincial treasury. The by-law to ratify the agreement between the city and the trustees of the new bathing hous® at Macdonald Park, donated by the late Capt. George T. Richardson, came up, but the passing of it was delayed until more information has been secured, as regards the city's position in the matter. The delay in passing the by- law does not, by any means, show any opposition on the part of the City Council, to oppose the bathing house, but merely to have a definite under- standing as to the part the city is to play in the undertaking, For in stance, the question was raised as to whether the city, which is called upon to expend at least $800 per year, inv the maintenanee and care of the bathing house, is to be givea possession of the building; whether or not it is to be regarded as city property. It is desired to have these matters cleared up hefore the by-law is finally passed, and it was for this reason that it was decided, on mo- tion of Ald. Newman, to have Mayor Hughes and the City Clerk, secure alyl the desired information, There is no need for the rushing through of the by-law. Mayor Hughes meeting, aand the present were Alds, Couper, Clugston, Corbett, Kent, Newmen, O'Connor, Simmons, N.

The members of the local Labor Unions are anxious to adopt some practical meaes to deal with the high cost of living and feel that the solu- tion of the problem lies with them- selves. A committee was appointed and a fund provided by subscriptions to defray the expense of 3 mass meet- ing. Organizer Kerr states that the labor union men, whose families con- stitute the great body of consumers, simply must organize and co-operate in purchasing the essential articles of consumption in order not only to get through the trying days of the war but also to secure to each other the maximum of comfort their pur- chasing power is capable of, Profits] are not looked for. Mr. Keen will come to Kingston at an early' date. SOLDIERS GIVEN TREAT. Rettuned Men in Hospitals Had a Trip to Collins Bay. Through the Kindness of Charles! Webster in lendimg his motor boat, "I'l Seée' (otherwise Herbert As quith"), a party of twenty-five re- turned soldiers from the military hospitals were given the pleasure of a round trip to Colline Bay and Wolfe Island on Tuesday evening, Major Starr in command. Opinions of sceptics to the contrary notwith- standing, the trip was made with- out adventure. The presence of Mr. Webster having brought such evi- dent good luck, it is suggested that he act az advocatus diaboli for the ill-fated "M.A.D." To-day Dean Starr took twenty of the men in Queen's Military Hos- pital to Amherst Island to attend a Red Crosg pienie, a TO LOCATE SUNKEN LAUNCH. A Diver 'at Work at F JAsland.
