Kelso's Scheme for the Care of the Wayward: Boys----Says Mimico School Should be Closed That the Mimico school for erring | leas! boys should pe closell at once, is the opinion of J. J. Kelso, Ontarlo's superintendent over neglected child- ren, who was in 'Kingston on Tues- day, on his way to the old country on <a trip for the , benefit of his health. : In speaking dn the hatter Mr. Kelso: said: "Once a man is publicly branded as a criminal it is almost impossible for him to reform. Many a young fellow has struggled hard, but in vain, to get out of the met woven by his own misdeeds, eyil associa- tions, an intricate, vigilant and re- lentless police and legal system, and a curious gossip-loving phblic. Just as he almost succeeds in extricating himself some blundering official or companion gives him a jolt'and he is in the meshes deeper than ever. "In addition to giving a man a bad name, the institution provided by the state for his rehabilitation ac- quires in time a most unsavory repu- tation. It may be doing fairly good work with unpromising material, but it is sure to be classed as the com- munity's inferno. 'Sent to the Mer- cer' means iy the estimation of the average citizen that a woman is be- yond hope, and has been thrown into a horrible prison from which she will emerge ten times worse than when she went in. It is useless fo explain that the superintendent is a capable, sympathetic woman, who devotes her lite to the work of restoring the un- fortunate committed to her care. 'That is. seldom considered. The place has a bad name, and is unani- mously condemned anyhow. = The term 'Sent to Penetang' grew so un- savory that the old reformatory for boys had to be closed, for the lads known to have gone there had no chance when they got out. Although itis a fine university town, to be 'sent to Kingston' conjures up at onee a vision of the cell and the stane-pile that the poetic traveller's guides can never dispel.

"The time has come. when 'the * Mercer should be wiped out, and the name forever abandoned. A country home or training school for women away back if he hills, with a name like 'Pleasant 'Valley, or 'Sunry Glen,' or 'Sheltered Nook' would do more for its whilom visitors than all the bolts and able-bodied guards in the world. It is justice, sympathy, kindness that this old world wants, whether in the correctional institu- tion or out of it.

All eyes, In Europe at any rate, are turned just at present towards the Palace of Schoenbrunn, in the suburbs of Vienna, where the aged ruler of Austro-Hungarian mon- archies is being slowly. nursed back to health. + This last attack of illness has been a serious one, and his recovery in view of his vears---he is eighty Jour--Iis nothing short of marvelous, He occupies a part of the extreme left wing of che palace, the sunniest portion thereof, the remainder of the huge building presenting a somewhat strange aspect, with its shuttered windows, and blinds drawn down. alle most remarkable feature of this favorite abode of Francis Joseph, is its quietude and absence of noise and bustle. . This silence only broken now and then by the calling out of the guard at the en- trance of the courtyard, on the ar- rival 'or departure of some member of the reigning family or great dig- nixary of the state, The emperor is watched over al- most as a child by a number of an- cient and faithful servitors to whom his welfare is as the salt of their existence; and not only they, but ev- en the emperor himself are un- der the ordérs of his princip- al medical attendant, Dr. von Kersl, white baired himself, and who, for more than a generation in con- stant personal attendance om his sovereign, occupies an old-fashioned apartment in one of the long, low, one-story annexes of the palace. Francis Joseph is not an €asy pa- tient to manage, and is stubborily determined to have his own way, at any rate where his personal habits are concerned. Dut Dr. von Kerzl has shown how to reduce the em- peror to obedience, and is celebra- tafleas being the only man in the length and breadth of the dual em- pirg that can enforce his will upon his sovereign. It was Dr. von Kerzl who some years ago insisted that Francis Joseph should give up in favor of a milder smoke, those terribly strong so-palled Virginias-- a long thin Austrian cigar with a Straw running down the center----of which he was particularly fond. Dr. Kerzl has now forced his imperial patient to abandon smoking altogether, ' and this has no doubt contributed to his recovery from the severe bronchial attack which reduced his vitality te 80.1ow and alarming an ebb. Perhaps the best proof that the emperor is ou: of danger, is the fact that, his favorite daughter, Arch- ducliess Valerie, has been able to leave Schoenbrunn, and to return to her easile of Wallsee. But for all that, he requires careful watching, and to be kept from any impruden. ces. The solicicude concerning him prompted largely by = affedtion, where his own subjects are concern- ed, but abroad by the fear that kis demise will give rise to grave dis- turbances in the daa) empire, in which. are comprised some sixtden or eighteen different nationalities, most of them terribly antagonistic towards one another.

WAITERS CLING TO TIPS, Those at Chateau Frontenac Protest to Senate. Ottawa, May 21.-----The waiters of Canada, or some of them, object to being deprived of gratituities by act of parlifment. In the senate a peti- tion of the Chateau Frontenac wait- ers against the anti-tipping . bill . of Senator Davis was, read. It stated that should tipping be made illegal waiters would be fortunate if pro- prietors paid salaries f $75 a month, and upon that a fian with a family could mot live and \dress as a waiter was obliged to dress and that évery one of the forty-five waiters in the Frontenac were opposed to the bill; and belief was ¥&xpressed that ninety per cent. of the waiters (of Canada were against it. The pe- tition stated that tipping was now optional, and should remain so communications on the same subject which he would read at the proper time DROWNED ON HONEYMOON Newly-Weds Victims 'of Overturned Canoe at Chicago.
