There does seem to be something like
justice in Scotland since millionaire
Winans was not allowed to evict the poor
cotter whose pet lamb ate few blades of
the grass that was intended for the great
sportsman's deer. If the evictor had
been Scottish Lord, however, the cotter
would probably have had 70 90.

Prof. Baird, Secretary Of the Smith
souian Institute, advises people who are
suspicious Of their drinking water to
boil it in order 10 destroy organic ele-
ments therein. Diluting it with fusel oil
will not answer the purpose. He thinks
a half hours boiling would convert even
cholera microbes into nutritious food.

Of their investigation she and the other

What the Senate Wants to X,

NnOt the SenAIc W anus 10 AnOWs
REASONS WHY THE DISTRICT COMMISSIONERS
HAVE NOT FURNISHED THE INFORMATION
SOUGHT FOR.
The District Commissioners having been
called upon by the resolution of the Senate,
that body of the causes that have prevented
the Senate adopted June Oath, SS4, relating to
the taxes collected from 1875 TO 1854. and to
receipts and disbursements on account of the
water department or water fund, for each year
from 1875 to 1884, the Commissioners state in
reply that they have made every reasonable
effort to comply with the onerous task imposed
upon them by the resolution passed June oath,
1884, but 1t has been impossible, with the regu-
lar office force, to make such subdivision of col
lections and expenditures as was called for, be-
with reference to the arbitrary sectional divi-
sions named in the resolution. The law does
not require 1t, nor can such a system be fol-
lowed without keeping separate set of books
and records for each section at some consider
able annual expense. 1t should also be observed
that within the period covered by the resolu-
ton there have been two different forms of gov
eminent for the District-Some offices have
been abolished, the duties and responsibilities
relating to others modified and corresponding
word, the only reason why the Commissioners
have not as yet replied to the resolution in
question is that the force at their disposal has
not been able, in addition to their regular Duties
to pick from the records the special information
called for and which could not be obtained
therefrom directly. A vast amount OF work
has been done towards compiling the Informal
ton called for, and the results will be tabu1ated
SO as to present at least a partial report to the
Senate at its present session.
The president of the Senate to-day submitted
the communication Of the Commissioners to
that body.
