A CORRESPONDENT at Mount Stewart writes: Typhoid fever has again broken out at Mount Stewart. There were some 150 cases of it here last summer. Provided we have an early winter it is expected the Board of Health will make their annual in- spection of premises about New Year. They always wait until severe frost sets in.

Tue Patriot says that Mr. Colby advo- cates a thirty per cent. tariff. The Patriot is mistaken. Mr. Colby condemns the Gov- ernment for their hypocrisy and dishonesty in affording 60 per cent. protection to pe- troleum oil refiners, while they give only 174 per cent. protection to other industries. Mr. Colby points out that these specially fa- vored oil refiners are the constituents of McKenzie and Mills!

A meeTine of the City School Board was held last evening. The chief business was the award of a contract to put heating ap-

tus in the new School Building to esars. McDonald & Co., of Halifax. [ff what we have heard respecting certain man- ipulations and misrepresentations be cor- rect, there is a real cause for protest gainst the award. The contract price is $2,190—only about a hundred dollars less than the tende- of a prominent city firm.

Supreme Court.—The case of the Queen at the prosecution of Patrick Shea, police- man, vs. H. B. Smith, for libel, has been occupying the time of the Court to-day. Messrs. Hodgson and Peters appeared for the plaintiff, and Messrs. Palmer for de- fendant. In the case of the Queen at the

rosecution of J. S. Carvell vs. Frederick Dav , the Jury returned a verdict of guilty. In the case of the Queen at the prosecution of John R. Hooper vs. John O’Brine, for larcency; the prisoner being arraigned, ieetcd guilty.

Tue summer meeting at Upton Park, which will be held on Dominion Day, promises to passoff pleasantiy. Already there are three entries for the 2.55 class, three for the ladies’ purse, four for the green race and a match for the four-year-old’s. These are enough to warrant a splendid day’s racing. As on the 25th inst., the ateamer Elfin will make a pleasant excur- gion to North River Bridge, arriving in time for the first race. The managers are determined to use all means in their power to. preserve order during the races, and give those who compete a fair trial.

WE were shown on Kent Street to-day a furniture van, which is to be used by the Salvage Company of this city, for the con- yeyance of goods, etc., from fires. This yan is similar to the vans used for the same p se in Montreal, Halifax, and other cities. The body is very large, elaborately

nted, topped with high rails, and set in some running gear, which is furnished with Platform Springs, in order to prevent breakage, when the van is turned short or quick. Although large, and builtin the most substantial manner, it presents a very neat and ornamental appearance. It was built by Mr. P. H. Trainor to the satisfac- tion of the Chief Engineer of the fire De- partment and Captain of the Salvage Com- y. The Captain deserves great credit

r adding to our aiready efficient fire de-

partment such a useful and handsome piece of machinery.

Heaty’s Hipernian CompinaTIon ex- hibited to a much overcrowded house in the Market Hall last evening. ‘The perform- ance was, from beginning to end, carried through in a manner which reflects credit on the management of Mr. Healy. Messrs. McGann and O’Lynn in their jig, special ties and comicalities, acquitted themselves splendidly, and from ‘‘entry to exit” kept the house in one continual roar of laughter. “The Happy Irish Emigrants,” by the Morrissy’s, was excellent. They fully sus- stained the reputation they have attained abroad as “‘Irish comedians.” Mr. M’s clog dance was well executed. Miss Ten- Broeck and Miss Morrissy rendered ex-

—— ER

cellent pieces of yocal music during the evening, and won golden opinions from the audience. Mr. Henshaw as a “negro comedian’ can searcely be surpassed. He is also a successful ‘‘Dutch comedian,” as was seen by his rendition of ‘Farewell to Faderland,’ in which he was accom- panied by Miss Ten-Broeck. Mr. Graham’s description of the scenery was rather brief, This was, no doubt, owing to the late hour at which the entertainment commenced.

a truly side-sphiting farce, entitled “In- nocence, Crime, and Justice,” which was a thorough representation of an occasional scene in the lower courts of New York. The Company will again appear this even- ing in the same Hall, and on Monday even- ing they will play in aid of the Sons of Temperance. Reserved Seat Tickets for

NEWS BY TELEGRAPH.

(Special Despatch to Examiner. ) Berwin, June 28.

The sitting of the Congress to-day lasted three hours. Gortschakoff was present.

It was decided, in accordance with the proposal of the British plenipotentiary, to entrust to Austria the task of occupying Bosnia and Herzegovina in the interest of the peace of Europe.

The duration of the occupation was not fixed, and full liberty is left with Austria in regard to the organization of the pro- vinces. It is believed, however, she will follow the plan drawn up by the Constanti- nople Congress.

Congress unanimously adopted the pro- posal of the French Plenipotentiary that Europe should refuse to recognize the in- dependence of Servia unless Servian Jews were relieved from their present disabilities,

Congress decided to appoint a Commis- sion to examine into the question of the aggrandisement of Servia.

The aggrandisement of Montenegro will probably also be referred to a Commission.

On Saturday, Congress will hear the views of the Greek Plenipotentiaries who, yester- day, received the necessary credentials.

The general impression in high Russian circles is, that Congress will result in a tem- porary relief, but not in the real settlement of the peace of Europe.

Vienna, June 28.

A despatch to the Politische Correspondenz says: ‘‘ The Roumanian delegates in Ber- Berlin, have abandoned all hopes, and are about to return to Bucharest.”

Lonpon, June 29.

The Morning Post announces that the Duke of Cumberland, son of the late King George of Hanover, has not abandoned his right to the throne, and that no arrange- ment has been made between him and the Prussian Government,

Names and Nick-names.

T'o the Editor of the Examiner.

Srr,—In reading the interesting accounts of the various schoel examinations in your paper, I was sorry to see one thing which (I hope you willagree with me) needs amendment. Some time ago Lord Dufferin, in one of his genial, common-sense speeches, spoke very forcibly against the growing habit of nick. naming children in school registers. ‘‘Fan- nie,” and ‘‘Hattie,” and ‘‘Jennie,” are names not out of place in the play ground or at home, but exceedingly vulgar and offensive to good taste when paraded in news- papers or seen in school registers. I wish you would look over your files (it was in your columns I read the speech) and print again what Lord Dufferin said on this subject. It is one of those things done with a good intention, withcut much thought. As soon as attention is called to it, nearly everyone would say it is in bad taste. It would be a good thing if the School Board would order the register to con- tain the names, and not the nicknames, of the children.

The matter may seem a small one, but these little things tell a good deal.

Yours, etc.,
