15.\u2014According to special despatches, a strange case of aphasia has been solved in Milyaukee.William Chids, aged 35 years, son of George William Childs, jr., of Brooklyn, after having been mourned dead for two y.ars sudd nly recovered his memory of himself when he heard the click of a photographer's camera.The camera brought back to him the fact that he was formerly a dealer in photographic supplies.Two years ago in Chicago some thing snapped.as he says, in his head, and where he has been since then no onc knows.A week ago he appeared in Milwaukee and begged the county authorities to find out who he was.They could not help him.On Saturday interest was aroused by a report from Brook'yn in a letter that he might be Joseph A.Oatman, a missing dry goods merchant.A photographer was sent out to get a picture to send to those who thought he was a missing uncle, and with the taking of the picture the man remembered.He began sneaking slowly at first, then talked rapidlv.and thc tears flowed when he realized that le hail been practically ia another world for two years.NEW ONTARIO MR.BURRISS HAS PLAN TU BRING IN HUNDREDS OF AMERICAN FAMILI SS, Toronto, March 16.\u2014

and progress reported.After a somewhat animated and prolonged discussion, the committee was continued, and the following resolution wag passed unanimously : \u2014 \u2018We, the members of the Quebec Protestant Ministerial Association have learned with deep regret that prostitution in Quebec City » practically legalized by the civic authorities, houses of ill fame being tolerated, inspected, and segregated by the police, in accordance with by-law No.234, of Sept.23, 1870.\u2018Such being the case, we beg respectfully to submit that such a condition of affaire is not creditable to the community, and that it is not the dutv of the civic authoritics to tolerate and control vice, but to seek in the most thorougn Way its comnlete suppression.\u2019 The sub-committee is empowered to act in concert with the Roman Catholio authorities, who have this matter in band, and are hopeful of its ultimate complete suppression.The action of the Roman Catholic authorities is very mich appreciated.The paper by the Rev.E.J.Stobo will the sessions of the association will close on the third Monday of April, 1909.BANK TELLER\u2019S TRANSFER.Halifax, N.S., March 15\u2014Mr.R.Tufts,

at secing the province 1m such a flourishing fhnancial condition as shown by the Treasurer's report.It was the policy advocated by the late Mr.Mar-: chand when he sat in the House as an Opposition member, 11 was the realized dream of the administration which that great man had outlined; and it was the platform with which the present admin- stration had successively come before the people and had been returned with ever increasing majorities; the same policy, the same programme, which year after year gave an increase of surplus, until last year it surpassed all precedents and reached the astounding figu- ures of over one million dollars.After treating at considerable length the various measures which have been enacted by the Liberal government since 1897, Mr.Delage spoke of the Federal subsidies whitch had been increased by the unceasing efforts of the present regime; Sir Lomer Gouin had promised the people this measure, and it had been granted them.Continuing, the speaker said that: the Opposition treated this as a mere nothing, an ordinary course of affairs, but despite the fact that the measure \u2018was so trivial, the Conservatives who had tried to effect it had failed to make it materialize.\u2018Mr.Delage also dealt with the projected annexation of Ungava, declaring that works were already under way mre- paring the province for the acquisition of that expansive stretch of territory.MR.TELLIER.Mr.J.M.Tellier, leader of the Opposition, continued the debate and compared the five years of Conservative administration between the years 1892 and 1897 with the twelve veans of Liberal regime which have elapsed since the provincial elections of 1897.According to the Liberals, Mr.Tel- lier said the province was in a state of ; & furore the then Liberal opposition had ruin in 1897, and it was they who had brought about the great chauge and who had saved the country from ruin.He did not credit this, Mr.Tellier said, and maintained that the only way by which a surplus can be obtained ordinarily is by a reduction of expenses and the increase of the sources of revenue, The expenses had not been reduced.he declared, and apart from the Federal subsidies the resources were the same as those which existed in 1897.It was an exaggeration on the part of the Liberals to say that during the Conservative regime deficit had succeeded deficit.There had been a deficit .in 1897, the speaker said, in comparing o1- dinary receipts with ordinary expenditure, but it was at-accident ; the ordinary revenue for that year had not all been paid in, while the expenses had been greater than usual.If the Liberals looked at the years 1894-95 and 96 they would see that each one had given a surplus.It was not just of the Liberals to make comparisons with the year 1897.for besides the fact already stated, two governments had ruled that year.; Between the yeans 1892 and 1897, Mr.Tellier stated, the Conservatives had 1éa- lized an ordinary revenue in excess of ordinary expenditure as follows:\u2014- 1893.22 22 22 220006 $432.000 1895.162.000 1896.\u2026.\u2026.206,900.Continuing, Mr.Tellier declared that the Conservatives had- spent $1.582.000 for public works in five years, while in twelve veam the Liberals had only spent $5\u20ac0.000.or one million dollars Joss than the Conservatives.The Conzerva- tives had spent $5,088:000 for railway subsidies in five years; whereas 11 iwolye vears that the Liberals have ull ihe amount only reached $988.000, or four milion dollars less than th: Conserva- tiv 3.; \u2018oi ;\u2018 The Conservatives had not promised thes: amounts for pnblie works, and for railway subsidies, but were hell by.contracts which had been undertaken by the\u2019 i ( tire oceding government, and the entir L'ansaction had paved an casy way for the Liberals who succeeded to power with everything eettled;

Mr.Telier\u2014The Premier save very good, but when the tax was absolutely necessary, between 1892 and 1897, he did not say very well, and his government that is in power now reached there by appeals to prejudice.Speaking of the surplus which the budget speech mentioned, he declared that the government was in a singular pesi- tion; they had condemned taxes when they were necessary, and now that taxes were not necessary they even announced in the budget.speech that the taxes could not be reduced.Mr.Tellier then referred to a statc- ment made by Sir Lomer Gouin that the provincial debt had been reduced by nine million dollars, and said that he did not consider it so, because if the passive was diminished by nine million dollars the active was equally diminish- ei and he declared that, according to the official accounts which could not be found in the public accounts, the actual diminution of the provincial debt bv the Liberal Government had reached $1,- 883.000.The Liberals boasted of the surplus as an extraordinary.thing and proclaimed the praises of their administration on all occasions, the speaker said, but they did not boast of having seld wood limits since 1897 to the amount of $2,- 361.000, while the Conservatives had only disposed of wood limits to the extent of $125,000 in five years.; It was strange, the speaker said, that after effecting such sales the debt had only been reduced by over a million dollars.The tax on commercial institutions in 1897 was $134.000; in 1898 it was $194,000, and last year, 1903, it was $565,000, the speaker declared, while the succession duties.which were $120,000 in 1897, were $620.000 last vear.; With nothing to do for public works, ncthing to do for railway subsidies.with a sale of wood limits of over two million.dollars.with an increase of taxation he did not consider it such a marvellous thing, Mr.Tellier said, that the debt had been reduced by over a million dollars.In terminating his speech, Mr.Tellier touched on the question of \u2018Free land for free settlers.\u201d and remarked that the government need not regard.the mea- aure with such disdain; he would favor the spoliation of nobody\u2019s land; he declared he did not belong to a party whose purpose it was to violate the rights of the people.MR.ARTHUR a PLANTE.Mr.Arthur Plante, of .Beauharnois, criticised the government for imposing excessive taxes on the commercial Institutions of Montreal.He also considered that the charges imposed upon those who take out actions excessive, and was \u2018in favor of them being reduced, while he also spoke in favor of magistrates being paid by the Federal Government.MR.WEIR AND THE NATIONALISTS.The Hon.W.A.Weir closed the debate.\u2018This debate,\u201d he raid, \u2018has been started by the honorable member for St.Hyacinthe, and I was glad to note considerable improvement in his tone.When the member for St.Hya- sidies to pay and no expenditure for pub- lio.works.! |at school fillad with bummptious of this parliament he seemed to fancy that the mémbers of the House were like small schoolboys, who had to be skelped and whipped into line, but lus short experience has taught him that he was the vietim of the whipping.Consequently, 1 am glad to note a consider able improvement in his parliamentary manners.\u2019 Mr.Lavergne\u2014\u2018 Order.\u2019 Mr.Weir\u2014 I have seen a boy arrive ideas of his own importance, and thinking that he can lord it over the other boys, but when he got a few lickings such as the member for St.Hyacinthe has experienced, he soon «hanged his tone.1 am glad to notice a similar improvement in the member for Mont- magny.The honorable member is absent, and I hope a similar thing will not happen here as in Ottawa, when he absented himself for several weeks.\u2019 Mr.Lavergne\u2014\u2018 Order, order.\u2019 Mr.Weir-\u201c If the honorable member has a point of order to make, let him make it.If you want to speak to the chair, please rise up.\u2019 Mr.Lavergne objected to personah- ties, and Mr.Weir declared that Mr.Lavergne had changed his point of or- er.\u2018These lightning changes\u2019 he said, \u2018are characteristic of the Nationalist party.It is noi the leader of the Opposition,\u201d he continued, \u2018 who rites, but 1t is the member for St.Hyazinthe who boldly thrusts himself to the fore re gardless of the rights and privileges of the member for Joliette.\u2019 Still levelling his charges against the Nationalists, Mr.Weir continued: \u2018The honorable members will not date in this House, before the men they accuse, before the electors of Montreal er the electors of the province\u2014neither the member for Montmagny nor his Messiah of the Nationalist movement\u2014will dare to make precise accusations against any particular member of this House, either now sitting here or who sat during the last Legislature.\u2019 Mr.Welr combated another of Mr.Bourassa\u2019s statements, to the effect that foreigners were responsible for many of the crimes in the province.\u2019 Out of 618 convictions, Mr.Weir claimed only 52 were against foreigners.He accounted for the increase in revenue the year before from succession duties by saying that geveral millionnaires had died.The millionnaires during the present year have not been so kind to the province.They were still in the province, and the province was glad to have them.\u2018The poor Liberals, Mr.Weir admitted, in continuing, \u2018 have mot the halo of sanctity or religious fervor of our friends of the opposite side.\u2019 Mr.lLavergne\u2014- Hear, hear.Mr.Weir declared that the member for Beauharnois (Mr.Plante) was just as reactionary as the member for Jacque# Cartier (Mr.Cousineau).Mr.Cousineau wanted commercial corporation taxes abolished.\u2018And now,\u201d said Mr.Weir, \u2018comes the silvery flute of the member for Beauharnois chirping in the House.He wants the law stamps abolished.\u2019 Mr.Plante denied that he wanted them abolished.He wanted the fees reduced.Returning to Mr.Bourassa, Mr.Weir demanded: \u2018How can you expect him to hold the reputation of having a single ounce of common sense?.À man who would talk that way without the eloquence of the member for St.Hyacinthe would be put down as totally lacking, not only in common sense, but in sense of any kind.In reply to one of Mr.Lavergne\u2019s questions about the banking of the surplus, Mr.Weir said he supposed Mr.Lavergne knew so little about banks that he did not know how cash was put into banks.He concluded by saying he was sure the people would not listen to \u2018the fairy tales of the Nationalist party,\u2019 or: even to the humdrum drone of eur friends of the Conservative party.\u2019 .After Mr.Weir's speech was concluded the House went into committee of supply and passed several small itéms.PETITION \\ PRESENTED.# A petition was presented asking for a bill to incorporate the Lachine, Jacques Cartier and Maisonneuve Railway between Lachine and Hochelaga, or Maisonneuve with power to extend: to Dorval and to the north end \u2018of the- island of Montreal.The petitioners gre: Achille Bergevin, G.R.Lighthall, N,P., Arnold Wainwright, Ernest A.Bernard and Senator William Mitchell.: ARCHBISHOP RETURNING,\" rchbishop Langevin, of St.Boniface, Man., left yesterday morning to CITY COUNCIL.PROPOSED INCREASE { IN THE SCHOOL TAX.AA Although the City Council did not touch the order of the day at yesterday afternoon\u2019s meeting, several important subjects came up for discussion incidental to the routine business.Not the least interesting was a brief debate in relation to the school tax.The amount levied at the present time on property owners for educational purposes is forty cents on the hundred dollars, and both the Roman Catholic and Protestant Boards of School Commissioners are presenting bills before the legislature] asking for power to increase the tax to fifty cents on the hundred dollars.Ald.Laviolette said he wanted to! hear from the Council's representatives! on the Roman Catholic Board if they were In favor of the proposed increase.Ald.Gallery and Ald.L.A.Lapointe both answered that they had voted against the proposition when it was made, but the majority of the Board were in favor of it.Ald.Laviolette then complained that a proposal should be made to further increase the tax within a comparatively short time of the last increase, and he moved: \u2018That this Council is of opinion that it is not expedient at present to increase the school tax, and that the aldermanic delegation to Quebec be requested to oppose the passing of the bill by the legislature.\u2019 Ald.Dagenais seconded the motion, remarking that while he was not »p- posed to a liberal expenditure on a good education, he thought the time was not opportune to make a proposition to increase the tax, and the City Council, as the elected representatives of people had a perfect right, he argued, to express its opinion to this effect before the legislature.\u2018But what mandate have we got from the people to oppose this measure?\u2019 pertinently asked Ald.Sadler.\u2018Of course, I am now speaking as.a Protestant,\u201d he added, \u2018and 1 do not wish to oppose anything that my Roman Catholic colleagues may wish to do, provided the motion of Ald.Laviolette is to apply only to the bill of the Catholic Commissioners.But I cannot oppose the action of the Protestant Commissioners, because I do not think the Protestant community of Montreal is against it.I believe the actual feeling is that we are spending too little money in the city on education.\u2019 Ald.Gallery raised a point of order to the effect that the motion enuld not be divided to apply only to the bill of the Roman Catholic School Commissioners.Ald.Lavallée argued that the Mayor should rule that the point was well taken.Incidentally, Ald.Lavallée said he would like to comment on the peculiarity of the position of the school boards and the aldermen before the public at the present time.The aldermen owed their position to the vote of the people, while the school boards were nominated by representative bodies as what he might term a board of control.Every day now, some of the newspapers were asking for a board of control for civic administration, and at the same time for a school board elected by the people.He confessed that he could not understand the logic of the position.Aldermen Turner and Stearns stated that they, together with Ald.Yates, the third representative of the City Council on the Protestant School Board, had voted for an increased school tax.And they did so because it was obviously impossible to carry on the work of education in the city without more money.There was not enough accommodation in the schools, and teachers were lacking because the salaries the board paid \u2014and they were as liberal as the present available means would allow\u2014were not sufficiently remunerative.The wisdom of a withdrawal of the motion was suggested, and as there appeared to be some hesitation on the part of Ald.Laviolette to do this, Ald.Gallery asked that the motion be read in English, and when this was done he immediately called \u2018next meeting,\u201d and the question stood adjourned.AN ARGUMENT FOR ANNEXATION.Ald.Prud'homme called the attention of the Council to the fact that the Montreal Street Railway Company, which he said was known as the \u2018Park & Island Company\u2019 at Quebec and the \u2018Terminal\u2019 at Ottawa\u2014(laughter)\u2014was presenting a bill at Quebec seeking the ratification ot a fifty years\u2019 franchise for the extension of its line into the municipality of Rose- mount.He moved that the city delegation be instructed to oppose the bill unless proper provisions were made for a five-cent care fare, with transfer privileges to the city car service.Ald.Lavallée supported the motion, and as Ald.Ward had temporarily replaced the acting-mayor in the chair, ne begged leave, as chairman of the Annexation Committee, to remind Mr.Ward that the present circumstance emphasized the mischievousness of his consistent opposition to all annexation proposals.If his, the speaker\u2019s, advice had been taken.annexation would have been made of the whole district within a certain surrounding radius of the city.There would not then be any of this making of long franchises between companies and the municipalities on the outskirts of the city, franchises which were a means of great disadvantage to the people of the municipalities when they did eventually come into the city.In the present instance, it was a safe prediction to make that the whole of Rosemount would be within the city at the end of five years\u2019 time, and yet if this bill passed, it might be that for forty-five years the people living there might not enjoy the same street car privileges that other citizens enjoyed.Ald.Ward explained that he was in favor of annexing the whole island of Montreal, and that was why he always voted against piece-meal annexations, Ald.Prud\u2019homme\u2019s motion was car return to his diocese, cinthe first arvived within zhe precinots Aa, Sa A ET I They pean, co PIT TA = / Ey AN paie Era ried.; The- Montreal Electric Light Com- | pany (Messrs.Vipond and others) served notarial notice upon the Council to the effect that it was intended to erect two hundred and ninety-one poles on different streets east of Guy as far as Bleury street.Ald.L.A.Lapointe remarked that he was absolutely opposed to the action threatened by this company, which, he said, had no organization, and had no merchandise or electric_ciyrrent to sell.The company was claimiïïg to act under the powers or an old charter, but he did not think the city should allow it to go ahead and dig up the streets in the manner that was threatened.Ald.Lariviere suggested that an injunction should be taken at once againsi the company to preven: its interference with the streets.\u2018It would seem that Montreal 18 not mistress of her own streets,\u201d observed Alderman Lavallée, who proposed that the city attorney be asked for an opinion as to the powers of fhis company \u2014to say uM the powers had lapsed with the age of its hitherto unexerased char- er, \u2018The company is going ahead, anyway,\u201d sald Alderman McKenna.Cit has put up a pole in front of my premises on St.Catherine street, and, on fact, it seems to be going about the Streets just as it likes.\u2019 Alderman L.A.Lapointe id there seemed to be an idea that a case should be dropped imnediately judgment wus given against the city in the Recorder's Court.This court had .e~ently dismissed the action taken against an employee of the company for digging up the streets, but he maintained that the city ought to show a little more backbone, and, following the example ot certain companies, appeal to a higher court.In two or three weeks\u2019 time, he hoped the city would have obtained power from Quebec which would put these companies in their proper place as regards the use of the streets.Alderman Lavallée's motion was car riled asking the Law Department to report upon the powers of the company, and, as regards its notice of intention to ercet 291 poles, this was, on the motion of Alderman Giroux, referred to the Road Committee to take what steps it considered necessary to prevent the execution of the work threatened.IS NEW BRIDGE .A NECESSITY ?At the request of Alderman Lariviere, Ald.Giroux promised that the Road Department should have a report drawn up at once in respect to the condition of the bridge crossing the C.P.K.tracks on St.Catherine street east.The company has made an application before the Railway Commissioners asking that the oity of Montreal be compelled to put up a new bridge on St.Catherine street, alleging that the present construction is in a dangerous condition.Alderman Lariviere denfed {hat this ia so.Last year, he said, the Road Committee spent several thousand dollars in putting the bridge in repair, «nd it was unjust to seek to burden the city with the heavy costs of a new structure.The most that the old one needed would be a renewal of some of the paving.WATER FILTRATION RECOMMENDED.The Provincial Board of Health forwarded a copy of the following extract from the minutes of its meeting on Feb, 25, 1909:\u2014 \u2018Seeing that outbreaks of typhoid fever repeatedly occur in Montreal and suburbs, the Provincial Board of Health represents to both the City Council of Montreal and to the Montreal Water & Power Company the absolute necessity of effecting, during the present year, the changes for their previous intakes to which they have both agreed.\u2018Moreover, the board represents to the council and the company that there are at least serious doubts about the water from the St.Lawrence being suitable, in its crude state, as a safe and definite supply for the territory depending on their aqueducts.and recommends them to undertake from this moment experiments to find out what system of filtration (submerged sand filters, coagulent filters, non-subruerged sand filters) or other water purification methods will best suit the water of these aqueducts.The board considers that without such experimental tests being made, it would be imprudent to decide for one system in preference to the others.This test has practically become the universal practice in connection with important in- étallations of this kind, and pays for at- scif manv times over, inasmuch as it enables the most efficient and most ec- oromical form of construction to be determined in advance and proper provi sion for the requirements of operations peculiar to the water to be purified, climatic conditions and other local cireuin- stances.\u2019 The letter was referred to the Health Committee.PROFFERED GIFT 1S NOT ACCEPTED.The Fire and Light Committee recommended that a letter be forwarded to the Montreal Light.Heat & Power Company stating that the city could not accept the proffered gift of free street ligkting for the first fifteen days in Junuarv last.Therefore the company was asked, in making out its accounts, io charge from Jan.1 to March 1 ins\u2018.In the absence of Ald.Yates, the adaption of the renort was moved by Ald.Robillard, seconded by Ald.McKenna.The motion was carried without discussion, Aldermen Lavallée.Ward, Prud\u2019homme and Lamoureux dissenting.\u2018MOUNT ROYAL PARK IMPROVEMENT.Ald.Sadler proposed that a clause be added to the city\u2019s bill of charter amend ments at Quebec which would authorize the purchase, by expropriation or otherwise, of the land which forms the avenue leading
