Ist _ Accounts totalling $746.64 were passed. ance. It was the general opinion of those present that the byâ€"law should . not carry in its present form. The memâ€" bers felt that the company should be bound to extend the Bridgeport line as far as Bloomingdale for the conâ€" sideration of being granted running rights to Albert strect. Mr. D. B. Detweiler, referring to the terms "running rights‘" in the byâ€"law, said it might mean freight traffic as well as passenger. The clause in the byâ€"law referring to arâ€" bitration might result in the town having to pay another big bill of costs in deciding the question, and the passing of the byâ€"law in its preâ€" sent form would give the Bridgeport company an unconditional franchise from Ahrens street to Weber street, on Water street, for 18 years. This franchise from Ahrens street to Weber street, Mr. C. K. Hagedorn said, might prove very embarrassing to the interests of the town before it expired, there being nothing in the byâ€"law to provide for the giving â€" of running rights to any other road, even if such road were owned by the "town. There was a special meeting of the Board ol Works on Tuesday evening, when the chief matter under discusâ€" sion was that in connection with the injury sustained by Mr. Kinzie beâ€" cause of the bad condition of Ellen street. The Mayor was authorized to make an offer to Mr. Rinzie in s»tâ€" tlement of the suit which he has inâ€" stituted against ;the town. The offer will be a compromise between what had previously been offered Mr. Kinâ€" lie and the amount for which he held out at that time. Recently . Mr. E. Krait‘s delivery horse fell into a eulvert on Albert street and sustained a bad strafn renâ€" dering it impossible for him to use the horse for some time. Mr. Kraft said it was not his intention to enâ€" ter a suit against the town, but he thought be was justified in asking the town to provide another horse until his own was .gn fitâ€" for work.

It was the period of the Boer war success over again. | (‘The hero of Ladysutith‘" was the hero of last night. The event was promoted by the military, and by the enthusiasts of the Conâ€" servative party, two forces â€" which can be counted on to assemble crowds in Ottawa and to â€" make cheers. ‘The celebration was exceedâ€" ingly well advertised by the wartii., of the city newspapers,’» and there can be no doubt but the objects of the promoters were fully realized. ‘The crowd included a great many Mayor Ellis, with a select party, drove to Crichton Lodge, Lord Dunâ€" donald‘s~late residence, in the viciâ€" nity of Rideau Hall, and escorted His ©Lordship by way of Sussex street to the Central Station. : An Official Condâ€"Bye. BDefore leaving the car Mayor Ellis addressed His Isordship as . follows: ‘"‘On behalf of, I think I may safely say, the great majority of the citiâ€" zens of Ottawa, I have to bid you goodâ€"by.

We are sorry that circumstances have arisen to occasion the severance of your conâ€" nection with ‘the force. _ We would have liked you to have stayed with ‘The crowd included a great many ladics and children.

Dundonald in Reply. Lord Dundofiald in relpy said: ‘‘Mr. Mayor, ladies and gentlemen: I thank you, and through you all those who are beyond my voice, for the testimony of friendship.
