APPOINTMENTS TO OFFICE. Mr. Graham, chairman of, the ap- ‘ pomt'ments to omce committee, ga- 1 thered his codncillors around him,‘ immediately after the Educational meeting. Mr. Graham considered that everyone should, at one time or Oth- er, be given aiopportunity for an official place in the county’s service. On motion Dr. Wood was appoint- ed on the Collegiate Institute board tee. Mr. D. Eagleson and Mr. John Kelly also received their offices as auditors; Dr. Gould, of Fenelon Falls and Mr. F. C. Fielding, of Coboconv, were elected auditors of accounts for the administration of justice. The election of management of the House of Refuge was very c1099! and spirited, Messrs. Young, Callan, Mi- chael, Hawkins and McLean partici- pairing. A discussion arose as to the selec- tion of the chairman. The first man aamed, according to the by-law, is chairman. The way to get at the trouble was to elect the chairman, first, from a number of candidates. Mr. Hawkins was proclaimed chairâ€" man and Mr. Michael his assistant. It was then explained by the Cl erk 3 that the grant had just been waiting ‘ for an order from the president to I: pay it to the treasurer.

I Mrs. Sharpe read a card from Mr. Kelso, asking the local branch of the g society to call the attention of the ; county council to their needs. She i left a quantity of literature to be perused and considered by the coun- ; cillors, so that they might better j understand the situation. It was i suggested that the council take a deeper interest, and it would be well if appointed representatives would meet with the board of the society. There has not been a suffi. cient attendance at the meetings, and if members were appointed it would be a great help. present.

The Thursday afternoon session (t the County Council in committee was the longest of this week with an unusual amount of business requiring minute attention and abundant dis- cussion. On motton of Messrs. Jordan and Corneill the matter was left in the hands of the Warden and a commit- tee of B. L. McLean, and Mr. Cor- neil to meet a Peterboro Council Committee to arrive at an agree- ment . FINANCE AND ASSESSMENT The Finance and Assessment Com- mittee met at 2.30 o’clock with reeve Michael in the chair. The statements and records oi the county fund were read and approved. AFTER A GRANT. 'Mr. Carew was very glad to meet all. Concerning the grant he said. it was a small thing but great for! us. The ways that are open to us ‘3 to get money are either to raise itg by subscription or obtain it front: i :the town and county councils. It is Ea subject of import to the county as 'Well as to Lindsay. You all know it is a good thing. We can’t expect mo- ney Without as king, but do When a ifair case is presented. Mr. O’Reilly impressed on the coun- Qcil the fact that the poultry show did not affect only Lindsay but was a benefit to Victoria from end to end. He said there was 'no money in it for officials as only enough is given for travelling expenses, so the whole object is for the raising of the standard of the poultry. It was also thought that it was preferrable to have the admission free, but funds had been toolow to permit it. The especially advantageous thing about the show was the rapid buyâ€" ing up of the very highest :bred birds, A new style of cage had of necessity been purchased and although they had raised the expenditure they would last for many years. Chairman Michael assured the dep- utation of the Council’s deep consid- eration of their request. ANOTHER REQUEST. Mr. McKenzie, of the Agricultural h: Department in Lindsay was next heard in regard to the yearly grant. extended congratulations to the new and old members and said that it was just a year sincehe appeared before them on request for $500 for the Collegiate class. The act said that $500 must be raised in towns whicn had agricultural representativâ€" es in support of their work. Out of eleven counties, Victoria was the only! one which had granted anything like the amount of money required by statute for class room equipment and experimental plots. At present it was impossible for him to spend any- ways near the sum in the proper way and he thought that the act should be changed so that he would the given more freedom of action in legitimate enterprize- .

Montreal. i It was then moved by Warden Tiers Qaud Corneil that the government be memorialized along the lines sug- igested, that the money be placed un- ‘der the control of the Warden and a committee who would act in con- currence with the Council, and that 2110 more than $500 could on any ac- {count be spent. Mr. McLean said that if only $200 were spent this year it seems pecul- iar that $500 has to be granted next year when there is a surplus. The department would recognize any claims that the collegiate might make in connection With agriculturâ€" al expenses. If the class in the Collegiate does not materialize, something along an- other; line must be done. Mr. Kylie said that the town cOunâ€" cil gives $50 and free buildings to the association, and that the County Coqndil. ought to do something. Mr. Corneil said that it was the scarcity of fowl that made the higher price, and not the poultry associa- tion in nearly so great ameasure as he was given to understand Mr. J ordanâ€"It has immensely im- proved the stock, and now young men, interested in the industry are taking it up. We can’t let ourselves ' retrograde, even if the-County is g little behind. If this has enhanced the value of the poultry, etc.,, it should receive some consideration. Mayor Begg mentioned the case of a map who had come to Lindsay, just to buy geesehbecause he had seen the show so widely advertised, and expected to get what he wanted here.

It has Warden Tiers felt that the County must cut short the expenses and that a grant of $75 should be made in compromise. DAVID JORDAN CASE The question or paying the expenses of’Davi-d Jordan and son, incurred in Toronto hospital and 'the Boys’ Home was discussed in all phases; It ‘was the opinion of the council that the boy should never have been allowed to go up, for while there he con- tracted a fever and caused an epi- demic in the Home with consequent quarantine. On motion of Messrs. MUIliga'n and Southern. the bill was to be paid and the man placed in the House of Refuge, the boy in a home. GRANTS GIVEN. The usual grants to the public libâ€" raries of $50 each, except Lindsay, which gets $100, were reduced flit}:7 per cent. The expenses in- connection with the Goodlifie case were met by the Council up-to-date, the future cost to be supplied by Omemee. THE WHITE PLAGUE. A request was read from the Muni- cipal Association for the Betterment of Consumptives asking for a small grant of $10. Several members sh 3w- ed the great value and help to manâ€" kind the society was and the council almost unaminously agreed, with the result that the money was sanction- ed. The usual grant of fifty dollars was given to the Sick Chlldren’s hospiigal. The usual grant to the Ross Mem- orial hospital was approved on moâ€" tion of Messrs. Gould and Byng. The grant to the Salvation Army was given, while that of the Prison- ers' Association was filed. i UNITE WITH TOWN. g I In regard to the National Sanitar- ium donation 1t was decided to place the money in with that given by the town, and thus secure a free cot in the institution.

While the House was to be run as closely as possible, yet the inmates must . get good substantial board and lodging.
