Tue regular monthly meeting of the City Council was held lastevening. There were present}His Worship Mayor Haviland, His Honor Recorder Fitzgerald, Chief Engineer Large, and Councillors Morris, Byrne, Mc- Rae, Davison, Douse, Large, Eden and Taylor. There was alsv a large attendance of citizens. After the usual preliminary business was attended to, His Wor- ship submitted the correspondence on hand. AN ELECTRIC ALARM AND NEW HOSE WANTED. | The first letter read was from the Clerk of the Fire Department, enclosing the re- solutions passed at the last meeting of the Board relative to the immediate establish- ment of an electric fire alarm, and asking ‘permission to sell the conderaned hose and old brass couplings. The result of there- cent tests of the hose was also set forth, and the quantity of hose on hand (as pub- lished in THe EXAMINER several days ago) given. : Chief Engineer Large eXglained that it ‘was the intention of the Department to ask for 500 feet of new hose, but the matter was overlooked in the letter. ' On motion of Councillor Morris, second- ed by Councillor Douse, a committee con- sisting of Councillors Morris, Eden and Douse was appointed to look into the mat- ter of the intgoduction of an electric alarm ‘andthe purchase of new hose, with in- structions to report at next meeting. ANOTHER MAN AFTER DAMAGES. The next letter readgwas from Mr. L. P. Tanton, whousked the Board to at’ once settle his claim for damages sustained by ‘his horse, and caused by a defective bridge, ‘the property of the city. The accident happened in 1887, and Mr. Tanton claimed $3 per day for board and attendance dur- ‘ing the tive months the animal was under ‘treatment, If an early settlement was not imade he said that he would place the mat- iter inthe County Court. ‘ On motion of Councillor Douse a special ‘committee composed of Councillors Douse, | Davison and McRae, was appointed to in- quire into the facts of the case. WANTS TO LEASE THE FISH MARKBT, Mr. W. W. Ciarke’s letter was next read. _He offered to lease the fish market building on Queen’s whart tor a term of one or more years at a yearly rental of $60, provided he was given permission to re- more the fish boxes therein. Referred to Public Property Committee. BAD SIDEWALKS AND CROSSINGS, The petition of a large number of rate- payers residing in Ward 4 east explained that the plankway between Connolly’s pump and McLeod’s corner, on Fitzroy street, had been taken up some time ago, and that the people in that neighborhood were now obliged to wade through deep mud in consequence. The petitioners also drew attention to the great need of suitable crossings in the neighborhood. The matter was referred tc the Street Committee. A WORD OF WARNING. Mayor Haviland informed the Street Committee that there were piles of brick and stone on Priace street (the burnt dis- trict) that were not properly protected, and that during the day the pile of brick had fallen down and was now spread across the sidewalk in a dangerous position. He said that if an accident occurred, the city would be liable for damages, and urged prompt action. IMPRISONMENT WOULD KILL HIN. The petition of Mr. Charles Harvey, recently convicted of a third offence against the Canada Temperance Act and sentenced to two months’ imprisonment therefor, asked that the sentence of the court be not carried out, on the ground that the peti- tioner was advanced in years and in a deli- cate state of health, and _ that imprisonment, no matter for how short a period would result in his death. The petitioner further explained that he had gone outof theliquor businesssometime, ago and promised not to engage in it again if the prayer of the petition were granted. The petition was accompanied by a certifi- cate from Dr. S. R. Jenkins setting forth that Mr. Harvey wassuflering fromacompli- cation of diseases and weak lungs, and that imprisonment in jail at this time would seriously affect his health. Both the Reeorder and Mayor informed the Board that they had no juriadiction in the matter; that the proper course for Mr. Harvey to pursue was to memorialize the Minister of Justice. The petition was, therefore, laid on the table. THE ASSESSMENT FOR THE YEAR. Councillor Morris gave notice that at the next regular meeting he would introduce by-laws for the levying of an assessment on real estate and personal property ; also for au assessment on real estate, personal pro- perty and poll tax for water purposes. OUTSTANDING ACCOUNTS. Councillor Morris moved that a com- mittee ot three be appointed to prepare a statement of all accounts due and outstand- ing against the city on the 31st December last, said statement to be submitted at the next meeting of the Board. Councillors Morris, Eden and Byrne were appointed the committee. THE M'ISAAC-BRADLEY CASE. Councillor Byrne moved that the amount VOL. 24.—NO. 92 + supplying of between 30,000 and 40,000 feet of merchantable hemlock plank. DR. WARBURTON’S CLAIM. Councillor Morris said a letter had been received from Dr. Warburton, in reference to the balance due him for services during the small-pox epidemic. He thought a committee should be appointed to see about the matter. On ‘ion of Councillor Douse a com- mittee consisting of Councillors Douse, Eden and Taylor, was appointed. CITY SURVEYOR SMITH DISMISSED. On motiv: « Councillor Douse, seconded by Councillu: McRae, H. B. Smith was dismissed from the position of City Sur- veyor, and Joseph Taylor appointed in his stead ata salary of $400 a year. Coun- cillors Byrne and Large voted against the dismissal. CLOSING PROCEBDINGS. After some discussion on the recent false alarm of fire, and His Worship had ex- plained that any person guilty of giving a false alarm was subject to a penalty of $50, the Council adjourned sine die. A Word of Warning. }wING to the continued mild weather, the ice on the harbor and rivers contiguous tothe city is getting very bad, and horses are breaking through every day. Several got in yesterday and were rescued with dif- ficulty. Under the City of Charlottetown Incorporation Act of 1888, the harbor when frozen over is constituted or considered as a street of the city, and the Council is directed to make provision for ‘* the safety of persons travelling upon the said harbor when so frozen over.”” ‘The utmost pre- caution in this regard should be taken by the city authorities at the present time. Dangerous places in the ice should have warning signals placed at them. In fact, it would be well for watchmen to be sta- tioned near such places to warn approach- ing travellers and direct them to the safer parts of the ice. Proper forethought in this matter may prevent the loss of valuable property and still more valuable lives. We trust the hint we now throw out will not be disregarded, anh Local and Other Items. CoMMENDABLE.--The uew City Council's method of transacting business without in- dulging in unnecessary talk. The bald man’s motto: ‘‘ There is room at the top.” This top may be supplied with a good crop of fine hair by using Hali’s Hair newer. Try it, Srrest Crossincs.— Yesterday several new crossings of ashes were laid down throughout the city and more are to_follow. This is a step in the right direction, ScHOONER ARRIVED. —The schr, Sea Fiower, Capt.-Febyan Deagle, arrived at Souris West from Colvill Cove. The harbor is clear of ice, and shipping will commence in a few days. A Cnerky Patr.— Two young girls in Moncton have been doing a lively business in shoplifting among the shoe stores lately. When they tiied to get from Mr. Hogan the mongy price of a pair they had stolen, they were discovered. Miss Bessie H. Bedloe, of Burlington, Vt., had a disease of the scalp which caused her hair to become very hard and dry and to fall so freely she scarcely dared comb it. Ayer's Hair Vigor gave her a healthy scalp, and made the hair beautifully thick and glossy. -_ ->-- — A Graterut Famity.—The Maine Farmer tells of a needy family for whom kind tiiends took up a contribution, raising $25 in money. The recipients were grateful for the aid, and the whole family went to the photographer and had their pictures taken to send around to those who had befriended them. smagpiliiianie ATTENTION.—Citizens should not overlook the faet that a book is kept in the office of he City Clerk in which all complaints about bad sidewalks, crossings, etc., may be regis- tered, This book is for the information of the Street Committee and City Surveyor who consult it daily for the purpose of finding out just where their services are most neede i ii A Curious Casz.--An exchange says that a very curious case is just now attracting the attention of the medical men of a Berlin hos- pital. The patient isa boy of about twelve years of age, who was suffering from a slight inflammation of the windpipe. On being ex- amined it was found that his heart was notin the left, but in the right side of his chest—a fact of which his parents had been in entire ignorance. The deformity does not, however, interfere with the boy's ordinary well being, and it is only remarkable on account of its great rarity. A Frienp at Court.—the following letter, which is self-explanatory, appears in a late issue of the Ottawa Zvening Journal ;— Editor Journal :~I notice that in last even- ing’s Journal you speak of Prof. J, C. Schur- man as being anative of NovaScotia. Kindly make a correction. Prof. Schurman, like that other good Canadian and anti-annexa- tionist, Archbishop O'Brieu, is a native of Prince Edward Island.
