Warden Miller addressed the C' council at ache length, referring to the suit pending between the county 7. n o , 1 Ashfieldre- ference t i .t tc,c county fart at with y • to the Port Albert washout, to the (addition to the houses of refuge and the bridges under, contract. A request of the ratepayers of the town- ships of McKillop and Grey for a greet to assist in opening ilp the road between lots 1 and 10, 14th con- cession, McICrllop, as a stlttioe of the Guelph-Goderich road would be situ- ated on lot 3, was sent to committee, but was not granted. On motion of Messrs, Cautelon and McLean it was deckled that the old materials in bridges now under course of construe tion, be sold under direction of the Councillors in different localities. The Equalization, Committee made no change in the assessment of the county. The rate struck is one and nine -tenth trills on the dollar, in order to raise $01,374455 for general and other purposes for'1905. Moved by Messrs. Cantelon and Spackman, that the Council memoria- lize the Legislature to amend the High school Act by striking out sub -section 7 of section 2 of the High school Act of 1903—carried. Tho clause referred to is the one confering on High schools the power to charge fees fox' pupils of neighboring counties. Moved by Mr. Cantelon, seconded by Mr. McNaughton, that no salary be attached to the office of High Con- stable for this county, this to take ef- fect at the end of this quarter—car- ried. The Road and Bridge Committee re- commended the erection of a• bridge on the boundary between Tucker - smith and Hibbert, tenders to be opened for same in Seaforth, not later than July 15 ; recommend that the approaches to Stanley bridge be com- pleted at once; in reference to Bay- field bridge it was recommended that the Warden, the Chairman of the road and bridge committee and the Engineer inspect the situation, and if necessary call for tenders, to be open- ed not later than July 15. The Coun- ty Engineer • asked for three weeks' leave of absence, his son to perform his duties in the meantime, which the committee recommends be granted ; he also asked for an increase in salary, and the committee left this matter in the hands of the Council. On motion he was granted $300 for assistance in bridge work.

Mr. Griffin reported that nine pris- oners are at present in jail—seven males incl two females ; four are in for vagrancy, one for fraud, two for as- sault, one for theft, one for street walking, and one insane. The House of Refuge Committee re- ported as follows :—We are satisfied that both the keeper and the matron are doing all they can reasonably dofor the comfort of the inmates and for the interest of the county. Eighty- four inmates are in the House, so you will see that there is a pressing neces- sity for the occupation of the addition now being erected. The inspector, as instructed, purchased a cow recently, so now there are four cows giving milk. One nearly dry, will soon be sold. Recommend that a new buggy be purchased for the keeper, that a cow yard be made near the barn so that they can be turned out occasion- ally, that suitable clothing be bought for the inmates before the cold wea- ther sets in next fall. The auditors report as follows :—• The cash receipts for 1904, including the balance from 1903, were $119,561- 11, the disbursements were $118,811.- 86, leaving a balance to 1005 of $752.- 25, which is on deposit to the credit of the County, $150.14 in Molsons Bank, Clinton, and the balance in the Bank of Commerce, Goderich. We find the accounts correct, the books properly kept, the Treasurer's securi- ty ample, and the insurance on coun- ty buildings sufficient. Committee Executive Couittce recom- mended that no action be taken on the motion of Messrs. Currie and Mc- Quillau asking for at vent of $25 for the purpose of repairing bridge at winghaln, leading to the agricultural grounds ; that $25 be grantedthe -Neon Poultry and Pet Stock Associa- tion for show to be field at Seaforth t rhis year. A supplementary report of recommendedho couunittee recommended no action on the petition of ninety-seven ratepayers of the townships of Grey and McKillop, asking foe grant of $500 for opening up road between the two townships ft'oln lot No. 1 to lot No. 10 ; no action on the motion of Messrs, Currie and McQuillan, asking for grant of $300 for gravel road at 1Vingham, and no action 011 the ap- plication for a grant of $200 to assist in building a lock-up at Wroxeter. Both reports were adopted.

Cuban Diarrhoea. U. S. soldiers who served in Cuba during the Spanish war know what this disease is, and that ordinary remedies have little more effect than so much water. Cuban diarrheoa is almost as severe and dangerous as a miles attack of cholera. There is one remedy, however, that can always be depended upon es will be seen by the following certificate from Mrs. Minnie Jacobs of Houston, Texas : "I hereby certify that Chamberlain's Colic, Cho- lera and .Diarrhoea Remedy cured my husband severe 5 a d of it attack of Cuban diarrhoea, which he brought home from Cuba. We had several doctors but they did him no good. One bottle of this remedy cawed him, as our neighbors will testify. I thank God for so valuable a medicine." For sale by all druggists.
