The Toronto Daily Star has intro- duced into Canada ll, feature which is as novel as it is conspicaous in connee- s tion with newspaper adyertising. It paints a line in red ink every day , across the top of the page advertise- ment ot one of their large advertisers. The marvel of its readers is as to how the thing is done. At the same time it prints special announcements of its own upon the front page of its paper from time to Um.° also in colored ink, sometimes printing a paragraph at the bottoin of one of the columns of the frontpage, ancl occasionally stren iig- thenng ts front page cartoon with some colored. ink. As an illustration of this latter, upon the day that it was announced that Pretora had been taken by General Roberts. The Star printed a cartoon showing " 13obs " with a brush in his hand.

It was one of the most striking bits of news- paper work ever produced in Canada or elsewhere. More recently, au adap- tation by Sam Hunter, the cartoonist of the celebrated picture, " What we have we hold," represented General Roberts as a British bulldog standing upon the Map of South Africa shown in the form of a British f1:14, which was brightened and strengthened by a red cross worked into the folds of the flag by this wonderful Star color pro- cess. As an up-to-date newspaper, The To- ronto Daily Star eclipses all its rivals. It is dignified without being heavy; bright without flippant; aggressive without beim,- ill natured HURON COUNTY COUNCIL.

The committee advised that a water - pipe be laid for the house to the barn, so that a supply of water might he had for the stock, and that an agricultural furance be bought for the piggery if it would not interfere with the insur- ance. On motion of Messrs. Hays and Mc- Lean, the question of remuneration for the revising and consolidating of the by-laws was referred to executive conunittee, to report. A map of Port Albert, with refer- ence to the washout at that place, which had been prepared by Mr. Ans- ley, was placed before the council and referred to the road and bridge conunittee. The report of the education commit- tee was taken up: The report stated that a petition was presented from Matthew Mains and twenty-five other ratepayers of the village of Londesbor- ough, asking that a new school section be formed in the township of Hallett, comprising thirteen lots on the llth concession, thirteen lots on the 10th concession and part of lots 20 and, 21 on the 9th concession, containing about 2,540 acres, and that the county coun- cil at this present session grant an ar- bitration to deal with this matter; also a counter petition. from George Rad - dell and 162 others of the township of Hallett, requesting that no arbitrators be appointed as asked for by the first petition, The committee recommend- ed that no action be taken, but this was modified by the council by the ad- dition of the words, "until the Decem- ber session of this cotmcil." The report of the special committee appointed to report on amendments or changes in the rules and regulations of the council was read and passed. Various changes were recommended to bring the rules into conformity- with the statutes, particularly in respect to the abolition of voting by ballot for warden and appointments by the coun- cil, open voting now being compulsory. The special committee recommended no action in the matter of a petition from the county of Frontenac asking co-operation in seeking legislation for the reduction of expense in the service of subpoenas on grand and petit j urors; also that no action be taken in regard to a letter from Daly & Co:, tea impor- ters, of London, asking for the trans- fer to T. Langan of a county license issued to J. Gibson, both being agents for the above firm, the county treasur- er having declined to make the change without authority from the county council. The report was passed with- out amendment. A letter from the inspector of the house of refuge advising the purchase of a driving horse for use at the insti- tution was sent to the house of refuge committee. The county property committee re- ported that they had visited the gaol and found everything clean and well kept. The gaoler was accorded great credit for keeping everything in such good condition. The committee re- commended that half -a -dozen suits of men's clothing be procured, and that no action be taken with reference to the building of the cottage. They had inspected the registry office and found. everything seemingly in proper shape; they recommended that a granolithic walk be built frous the sidewalk to the office door as soon as the town con- structs a guanolithic walk on North street, and that the work be done un- der the supervision of Mr. Holt and the clerk. The purchase of half a dozen chairs for Judge Masson's office was recommended, also the granting of the request on behalf of the Independent Order of Foresters for the use of the court room during the meeting of the High Court. The report contained this clause: " We are pleased to be able to state that for the first titne in a great many years the white flag is flying at the gaol, showing that the gaol is without a prisoner within its walls." In reference to the proposition from the town council regarding gran- olithic walks around the court house. the committee thought that the county had no groands around the court house to build the walks upon, and so re- commended no action. . In cornmittee of the the whole coun- cil Mr. Holt moved in amendment to the report, seconded by Mr. Chambers that the building of a new residence at the gaol be proceeded with forth- with, the cost not to exceed $2,500. The amendment was defeated on the following division: For -Chambers, Holt, Hays. McLean, McInnis -5. Against -Bowman, Connolly, Cook, Kerr, Miller, McEwen,Patterson,Snell Stuart, Torrance -10. The report of the finance committee in reference to a large number of ac- counts was presented and passed. It was moved by Mr. Stuart, second- ed by Mr. Connolly, that in investing the county sinking fund money the warden and treasurer be instructed to lend out the same in the future on the usual first-class mortgage at one fixed rate, say 11. per cent per annum. The motion was referred to finance com- mittee. • _FRIDAY. The treasurer's report of the esti- mated expenditures and receipts for the year was read and referred to .the finance -committee. It was as follows: ESTIMATED EXPENDITURES AND RE- CEIPTS FOR 1000.

No 7, Peter POrterfleld, clerk of East Akrawanosh; No, 8, Joseph Cowan, of Wroxeter. It was decided that in the event of au appeal from the equalization of the assessment by the council the final equalization should be left to the coun- ty judge. The report of the road and bridge committee was presented and passed. No action was reeommended in the matter of the proposal that the county should purchase road machinery for use by the minor municipalities; and the request of the township of Ash- field for financial aid in repairing the washout on the road. near Port Albert was refused, the county not being con- sidered liable. The executive committee made the following recommendation: In refer- ence to the letters of Messrs. Foy & Kelly, requesting, that the matter of the maintenance of Geo. E. Letson be referred to the county Judge of York -as the county of Bruce has already been directed to pay this maintenance by the Police Magistrate of Goderich, and there was no communication from them intimating that they would wal- ly with the request of the letter of Messrs. Foy & Kelly, that 'no action betaken; as to the request for a grant to assist in entertaining; the Huron Old Boys on their visit to Goderich on July 4th next, that no action be taken; that $50 be paid to the clerk for his services in connection with the re- vision and consolidation of the whole of the bylaws of the county of Huron. The report was amended by the pas- sing of a grant of $100 for the recep- tion of the Huron Old Boys on July 4th. Councillor Connolly and Inspector Coats were authorized to purchase a suitable driving horse for use at the house of refuge. A motion by Mr. Torrance, second- ed by Mr Bowman, that the question of the grant to the Huron Old Boys celebration be reconsidered was lost on the following division: For -Bow- man, Cook, McEwen, Patterson Tor- rance, 5, Against Connolly, Chambers, Holt, Hays, Miller, McLean, McInnis, Snell, Stuart, 9.
