Ald, Ross Sets Forth Scheme at Meeting of the City Council--=Wil! Ask That Finance Committe Take Up Matter With the County That the hnance commiiiee of the eity council consider a plah with the county eouncil as to the advisability Af sweuring an industrial farm where men confined to the common jail on minor offences might be employed, is a scheme which Ald. Ross brought forward at the city counc'l on Mon day fight. He took up the matter in the form of a notice of molan and will move to this effect at the next meeting of the cound! He re vards the plan as a good one amd will put forth every effort to have it carried out. Ald. Ross, in giving an explana tion of his scheme, pointed out that nowadays great change were bag made as regards the conlinement of prisoners in jails, In the present age all the attemtion was not giving to merely keeping the prisoners within the big walls of a prison, feeding them on bread and water, and as regards work, calling upon them to earry wood from ane swe of the jail wall to the other one day and then the next day have them carry it back to the other side. Toronto, he pointed out, had heen taking the lead as regards branching out into a better scheme. Statistics would go to show that ninety per cent. of those in the jail were un fortunates who had heen arrested for being drunk, and who had bean unakle to pay their fine. Ald. Ross said that this scheme, course, wotld not apply to puson ers in jail on seripus charges, for in stance in the case of uo murder char ro when a petson had to be closely guarded. AH this, of could be provided for, ihe matter will, bring forth an interesting discussion at the council when it comes up in the form of a resolution. of course, no doubt, FOR HARBOR Ald. Shaw Asked for Information at Council Meeting. At the meeting of ihe eity council, on Monday evening, Ald. Shaw, in view of the by-law passed to purchase the Cataragui bridge, wanted to know if the special commitice had acted as regards the harbor improvements in the way of dredging. He was anxious that the, _matler be proceeded with ag IMPROV EMENTS, | FEES STANDARDIZED AT MEETING MEDICAL oF ASSOCIATION, There Will be no Increase, But it Will. Simply Put Doctors on Same Baste--sSchedul= of Special mittee Adopted. Cum At a meeting of the Kingston Medi eal Association, held on Monday night, the medical fees for the doctors in the city was standardized. Reference has been made to the fact that the doctors were about 10 in crease their fees, but there is no in- crease, the doctors simply making a tarifi of fees, on the same basic as some other cities, Kingstom doctors have never had a local tarifi, or basiz of fess, and Wt might be siated that for the past Li teen years the fees in Kingston have been lower than neighboring places. An attempt was made, on several oc easions, to adopt some basis, air the same {ime looking after the legal and of the matter, and some months ago 4a special committee was appointed to draw up such a tariff. This committee got down to work, with the result that at the meeting on Monday night, a tarifi was submitted which met with the approval of every doctor present, and which was adopt- ed witheut anv correction whatever as to details. The meeting was well attended, eighteen doctors being in at- tendance. Dr. James Third was in the chair. The schedule of fees, as drawn and which was adopted, is on same basis as ['eterboro, Belleville, Ot- tawa and Niagara Falls districts, so it can be seen that that the local doe tors are not asking for an increase Some of the local oh have been charging these same fees, while others {have not, so now all the doctors will be on the same basis, After the schedule has passed the On tario Medical Council, it then stand the legal test, and the tarifi { will be sent on to the council at once, nnd will then go into efiect after inext meeting of the local doctors Another matter which will be taken up hy the association, is that of ledge and contract practice, uaderinken by tthe doctors he special. commitiee which submitted the turifi of fees will be continued in office, and will be asked to sunmit a report dealing with these two matters, and the said report will be considered by the association. The watter was discussed at some length at Monday night's meeting, but it was linally decided to leave the matter with the commitied for a re port.

With the approach of spring and the opening of navigation, things at Da. vis' dry dock are taking om quite a sanguine nppearance.
