On Sunday morning smoke was seen issuing from the Barrie Bath House at too early an hour for re to be legitimately there. The person seeing it had the curiosity to look into the window to learn how it hap- pened and saw that the room was full of smolge and the floor on re. He immediately alarmed Mr. Oulverwell, the proprietor, who was` soon on hand. Itwas found that the floor near the boiler was burnt through and a cedar log under the oor was alight and about half burnt through. It would not have been long before the whole building would have been in ames. The re evidently arose from a match or cigar stump bein thrown on.the Manilla mattin which ha smonldered from the time the nilding was closed a little after midnight till it was so fortunately discovered. .

T__L '\l,_,,, -u-uv uvv-v v1 -:1.` -cw --w -w -vv ww--- Last Monday and Tuesday the Police Court was the centre of attraction. It ap- pears that last Sunday night the soldiers had `a tussle with the esh as well as with the Devil, there having been a free Donnybrook ght at the Barracks. Two men named John Hardman and David Fraser, were charged with assault upon some of the sold- iers, and also with disturbing a religious meeting. Complaint was so made against these men by William Dyker, of the Salva- tion Army. The greater part of two days have been spent in investigating this charge. It is asserted that Hardman and Fraser pre- sented themselves at the door of the Bar- racks and were met by the door-keeper, William Michaels with the collection plate. M ichaels says he spoke to Hardinan on his entering the door, saying, Silver Collection meaning that no entrance was permitted without paying a silver coin, whereupon Hardman struck the plate containing six or seven dollars, vscatterin the money in all directions, saying as he glid so. silver collec; tion be (1 -- d. Then according to the story a_ row began, Michaels striking Hardman and Hardman defending himself as well as he could -David Fraser going into the ght. Considerable evidence of a. somewhat contra- dictory nature has been given and the case for the prosecution was closed on Tuesday night. His worship the Mayor before whom the case was brought, adjourned the Court till to day, when the defence will be entered upon. Mr. Hearn is acting for the prosecu- tion, while Mr. Haughton Lennox is con- ducting the case for Hardman, and Mr. Pep- ler is defending Fraser. It would be im- proper to say anything by way of comment while the subject is sub )udice. but a full re port will be given next week. ` .'1`he Uyc1one`-: v:s'1;d--I'?o-.-`C. 1.

Photographic Art.- There is no greater difference between the l i exquisite sounds from the violin in the hands of a. Paganini or Von Tromp, and the rasping "notes produced by the ordinary ddler. than there isbetween the `pictures produced by the true photographic artist and the common touch and the inappreciable distance on the string, of which the ordinary ddler has no conception and in the other the exact distance from the Camara and the attitude of the person whose likeness is to be taken gives atrue picture of, the sitter_,whereas the common pictl1r6_ maker often fails to obtain photographer.

After refreshments had been served, Mr. H. Edwards, President. on be- half of the Society presented Mr. I.ennox ` with a very handsome and valuable clock obtained at the establishment of Messrs. Sanders- `In making the presentation the President took occasion to speak of the valuable services rendered to the Society by Mr. Lenuox. In three years he was absent from only one of its meetings, and was, whether in the highest oice or as a private member, always ready to further the Society s interests. he alluded in fitting terms to the tender and happy relations into which Mr. Lennox had recently entered, and expressed the earnest wish of the Society for the future happiness of him and his amiable companion. Short and appro- priate speeches were made by Messrs Hunter, Purvis, C. L. Sanders, Hearn and J. T. Lennox. Mr. Haughton Lcnnox re- plied, thanking the Society for their valuable gift and for the kind and attering senti- ments expressed for him. He said he had been amply repaid for anything he had done for the Society by the benets he had re- ceived from mental attrition. commingling of thought and intellectual development. b The remainder of the evening was spent in social and literary gossip, and at midnight! the party broke up, every one feeling that it was good to be there.

The most amusing case was that of Caldwell vs. a Toronto rm,in which Caldwell sued that party for the price of a carload of potatoes. A large number of witnesses were called on both sides, on the part of the plaintiff to show that the potatoes were ex- cellent. and on the part of the defendant to show that they were like mush, and t for nothing except to sell to the bakers to put in bread. From the nature of the evidence the Judge was puzzled to give judgment. Caldwell, however, had offered to throw off the price of a number of bags, and he ob- . tained judgment for the balance. 3. c. 1. 1.. and M. s.

Al : the Ovnmg of the adjourned sittings for the preliminary revision of the List of Voters for East Simcoe, Judge Ardagh said that it was contrary to his usual custom to notice any articles in the public papers re- flecting on him, unless it was necessary he should do so, in order to preventlpublic con- dence in the administration of justice in this empty from being weakened. He was quite content that the people of this large county of all shades of politics, reli' `on and country should judge him by his public acts during the fourteen years. he had occupied his present position. He referred now to an article which appeared in the Globe of . Thursday last, and he would not do so had the writer conned himself to relatin the public proceedings of the last sittings 0 this Court at Orillia. To scatter broadcast over the land complaints made outside the Court without giving an opportunity to the person complained against to defend himself or offer any explanation,_may- perhaps be considered fair play by some, but of course fair play is not always to be expected, especially where a point can be made by not showing it. It was only necessary now to refer to this matter as the fault found with the Judge was evidently by some one interested in the ' proceedings, and so a president of this County. The same person no doubt who retailed to the reporter some casual remarks in a p iuate ronversation about the Globe s statement as to income voters in Toronto ; hence it seem. ed a duty forced upon him to say that this part of the charge, unnecessary secrecy (to use words not found in this article) was utterly without foundation as far as his in- tention was concerned. It seemed, he said. to have arisen from the fact that he refused - to allow the agents of either party to" have access to and indiscriminately examine all papers deposited with him for the purpose of picking out such applications as were refus- ed. `He offered, he said, to return to either party all such applications if the namesiwere furnished to him, or if that could not be done to give the reasons why they were re- fused. It was in almost every case impos- sible to say whence those applications came, as no letter _ever accompanied them. This ` offer the agent of the Reform party was unable to accept, as no record whatever he said had been kept of the names sent in. This perhaps would appear strange to some who had read the rather mild state- ment of a certain member in the House of Commons about hundreds of names being - left off and cause them to wonder where that information was obtained. On this head only one fact need be stated,_ and that was that out of over 750 applications, only some 200 were received in time to be considered. In view of the nuinberless `forms of declara- tion that appeared to `be in use, ',it seemed, he said, almost like a Joke to nd fault with him for not giving advice as to the form of declarationhe would accept, that is, for not tieing his hands before he had been able to get time to do more than digest what of the Act was necessary from day to day. ` A .. 4.- LL...

As to the charge that he declined to give any advice as to the date at which he would close the preliminary list, it was even more groundless than the others and the very con- rary of the facts. On being applied to by one of the Solicitors for- the Reformers on the 07 me racus. Uu. umug upyupu uu u_y Uuv the subject, he stated that several Lists were al- readv then in the printers _ hands, and the -others were being pushed on as fast as possibleby his clerks-the time being very short. On his invitation the name of one particular `List (the largest in the Riding) was mentioned. When he informed the gentleman in question, that thoughgthe List , was then" ready for the printer, he would ' keep it back for four days longer in order to Derlnit applications being sent in. He kept it back for six days, but after all not a single application came in till several days after the List was in the printer's hands. This was the only favor" asked by either party and it was granted. A _ _ 'A. in thn nnr-ea.s0na.l)16 proposition of was granted. As to the unreasonable proposition the Judge to read out the names, it did not seem to have occurred to the writer of the article in question that he could not read them out faster than his clerk could take them down, and that it was not necessary to object to any name then as that could be done at any time before the nal revision, -and whether this course was more unreason- able than to pause after every one of the 1,300 names long enough to allow counsel to call to mind the special circumstances sur- . roundingeach case, _he did not- now caie to discuss. That a layman should s eak of the `Voters `List as a `Municipal all was naturai enough,i and also, perhaps, that he should consider as amusing-'3. the refusal to consider the insertion of` the father s name on a prior List as suicient ground for in- sorting his son's (the applicant s) name on tne present one. His only excuse in making these remarks ' was that be valued too much the good opinion of the profession in his county to al-' low them to consider him as dishonest in this matter without some slight reman- strance. To the attempts to make him ridiculous he had no obJeet_ion had he_ been guilty ot thepartialitv attributed to him in politicl matters, he might well expect con- dence iu his judicial administration to. be shaken. - He was happy_ _to say that _8ft_6l' some 9 or 10 years of revising the Provincial l Voters '~ Lists for some iiftv municipalities. he had never before heard any complaints or charges -of p rtiality to either-_ arty. ; The same line of conduct he had lai down and followed in revising those .116. _h 1n*nd,d to pursue with the Dominion Lists, thougm appeared he would have a much harder r to travel.

The subject of improving and-ornament- ing the school grounds was up for discussion. It was determined to do something by way of putting the grounds in better shape than they are at present. Messrs. Purvis and Brown were appointed to see this work done, A and from the swell-known taste and horticultural skill of these gentlemen, we may hope that therewill be a great improve- ment in the appearance of the school grounds of all our schools during this spring and sum- mer. A smallamount of money judiciously used will make a wondrous change in the appearance of the surroundings of these es- tablishments. We are sorry that there is not more attention paid, to the --cultivation of taste 'at our schools than there is. No one but the practical educator can fully under- stand the educational value of tasty adorn- ments, internal and external, of. our schools and the effect on the pupil s future of their presence or absence. We are glad the Board have resolved upon these necessary improvements. -5 -O-Q fl`;
