A despatch from Toronto, says: Officers of the Provin-cial Board of ' Health charged with the duty of in- specting the sanitary arrangements at Summer resents in northern On- tario and on the inland lakes will see that th-e law is strictly enforc- ed this Summer. It has been said that at some resorts all. things were made ready for the visit of the in- spector and neglected after de- parture. Therefore the inspectors will .go‘ to the various Summer re- sorts unannounced this year. Dr.‘ George Clinton has already gone to the Kawartha and Stony Lake district and the chief ins-pector will 'make a tour at the height of the season of-all the resorts. The re- gulations governing steamships plyâ€" ing on the inland lakes Wlll also be rigidly enforced.

Dillon is about sixty-four years of age, and has served fourteen years of his sentence. The Irish Catholic «so- cieties, it is said, are responsible for his parole. These societies have been petitioning regularly for the past four or five years. Of the three dy-namiters, Nolan is the only one left. Walsh is de-ad, and it is said that Nolan is in a very weak condition. It is expected that he will receive his parole very shortly. __>I*.__.__â€". 35 MID SHIPMEN KILLED.
