Spoor, ex-warden of the county of Frontemuc, desire to place on record their fegret, and to extend to the family of the deceased their deep and heartfelt sympathy in their sore bereavement. The resolu- tion was unanimously adopted. The warden said and bridges' committee had considered the Leughbore Lake bridge matter too large to deal with, without refer- ence to the whole council, so he had called the council together to take action. The bridge, it was well-known, had been abandoned by the Perth Road company, and the law provided that the county mast assume control of it; as least this was what the coun: cil had been given to understand. Something had to be done to put the bridge into safé condition for travel. Storrington township. said that his township looked to the county coun- oil to put the bridge into repair. His the county was bridge had been three years. Councillor Stonees pointed out that the county council had assisted a farmer named Leeman in bringing suit against. the Perth Road company for injuries to a horse on the bridge. The judge, however, decided that the road company had the right te aban- don the bridge and still collect toll on the road. Mr. Whiting. K.C., had looked into the law, and stated that the two municipalities, Loughboro and Starrington, had no power to take over the bridge, and maintain it. The bridge in question must be maintain- ed by the county. Councillor Stoness advised that the council get legal ad- vice now as to its position on the matter. He advised the council to consider the question of taking up the Perth toll road arbitration award, and <buying the road. The county could go alead and collect toll, after rebuilding the bridge and reomiring the road. It could either do that or buy the road, throw off the tolls, and get the government grants for road and bridge buildi So 5 Mr. Whiting's letter to the Lough- boro township council was read. It stated that the townships .of Lough- horo and Storrington could not as sume responsibility of the. bridge; be- cause it was on the boundary of two townships, and the law provided that such boundary bridges must be as. sumed bv county councils. Councillor Aylesworth said that de finite legal advice should have first been got as to . the liability of the county before the council was called. He for one, did not know whether the county was responsible for the bridge or not. If the county was responsible, then it should repair it at once. Councillor Shannon rediiinded the council that the (public was suffering through the bad condition of Lough- boro Lake bridge, and the county council 'should delay no longer in re- gard to repairs, As the county. was responsible for the bridge, why not let it take over the road. The cost would be very little more, considering that it would get certain government grants for frecing the road of tolls, which include one-third the cost of purchase, and one-third the cost of vmintenance. Councillor Shanmon ha) Mr. Whiting's letter re-read, and show- ed that it was very clear that the county must maintain the bridge. Councillor Foley held that only Loughboro and Storrington townships were interested in the bridge. It was unfair to tax the other townships for the cost of rebuilding the bridge. The speaker said that in any event the first thing the council should do was to get definite legal advice. On motion of Councillor Briceland, a committee was appointed to get the necessary legal advice, and the coun- cil adjourned until the morning. i J. McD. Mowat wis engaged to ad- vise the council, as to its responsibili- ty, and he was to address it Friday afternoon. A delegation from the Kingston rd of Trade, consisting of Presi- dent W. T. Minnes, E. c. Mitchell, and D. G. Laidlaw, waited wpon the council at 11 am. Friday, and ad- it with reference to the toll question.

The board of works at Stratiord, has recommended Lindsay Malcolm, an honor graduate of Queen's University, who is now completing a course in the science department at the university, for the position of city engineer of that city. Mr. Malcolm is a son of George Malcolm, teacher in the Strat- ford Collegiate Institute, and was for a time, employed in the city engineer's office there, afterwards being appoint- ed assistant city engineer at Guelph. Appointed Assistant Actuary. J. B. McKechnie, M.A, ALA. has been appointed assistant actuary of the Manufacturers' Life Insurance com- pany. Mr. McKechoie joined the actu- arial department of that company about four years ago, and has been ever since very closely associated with the actuary, P. C. H. Papps, ALA, FAS, in the work of the depart- ment. He is an honor graduate in mathematics of Queen's Universi ty, and took a high stand in the exam: inations which entitled him to his de- gree as an associate of the Institute of Actuaries, He is also an associate of the Actuarial Society of America, and is well-known in Toronto insur- ance circles, having been secretary of the Insurance Institute of Toronto during the session of 1905-06. Sectional Interests Evident. To the observer, the new formation of the county council which consists of the towuship reeves, is not prov- ing in the county's best interests. During the two sessions of the council already held, the debates have shown sectional instead of united effort. Each municipality is looking after its own particular interests, and will not take a broad view The turning down of the Perth Road arbitration award in Janvary showed this, and the discus- sion on the rebuilding of Loughboro Lake bridge at Thursday afterndBn's session proved it over again. The for- mer constitution of the county coun: cil proved to be the better, as the various representatives were in bet- ter accord: and looked at matters af- fecting the townships in a broader spirit. 4 St. George's Men's Club. Again last night a large attendan se, Plans were approved for the mmprove- ment of St, George's hall, adding steam heating and two guild rooms, improv- ing ventilation, appearances and con- veniences; tp erect a sexton's residence and build a cloister passage to the ca- thedral.

Cowles, St. Lawrence Avenue Was Attacked, Fire was discovered I about 9.15 o'clock, last night, in the house occu- pied by A. Cowles, St. Lawrence avenue. The house, which belongs to George Clarke; is part of a brick row. When the firemen arrived at box No. 9, there was no person arownd to tell where the fire was and some valuable t was lost before some children said the blaze was on St. Lawrence avenue. When the brigades arrived on the scene the back kitchen of the house, occupied by Mr. Cowles, was ablaze and the fire had spread through the partition to the adjoin- ing section. By quick action the fire was soon under control and alter half an hour's fight was extinguished. The damage to the buildings was slight and as all of Mr. Cowles' furniture was packed, as he is moving down. street, the damage to it was chiefly from smoke and water. The fire might easily have provel serious as the brigade thought a false alarm had been sounded, and were on the point of returning when the shouts of some children were heard. In such a ease the firemen could not be blamed, as there was no fire in sight and the burning buildings being two blocks away. When an alarm is sounded the person ringing the alarm wonld save delay by waiting until the arrival of the department's outfif. Last" night's damage was fully cover- ed by| insurance. YOUNG PEOPLE'S: SOCIAL. A Pleasant Affair at the Baptist Church. The social given by the young peo- ple of the baptist church, last night, was a pleasant affair. There wad =» good attendance, anh all present had a most enjoyable time. The ' ladies provided refreshments, and a fine musi- cal programme was also rendered. The pastor, Rev. D.
