THE SANITARY BOARD..
A meeting of the Sanitary Board was held Yesterday afternoon. Present:-Dr. P. B C. Ayres, Colonial Surgeon, President; Hon. W, M. Deane, Vice-President; Hon, Wang Shing. Dr. Cantle, Mr. N. J. Ede, and Mr. W. E. Crow (Acting Hon. Secretary.)
The Secretary read several letters from the Colonial Secretary inviting observations by the Board on the clauses of the Building Ordinance relating to privics.
The Chairman said the circulation of the papers in connection with this subject had not been completed, and as the matter had not been placed on the orders of the day it could not be convidered at this meeting.
The Secretary read a letter from the Acting Sanitary Superintendent forwarding a draft Bill to amend the Public Health Ordinance as regards the compulsory reporting of infectious diseases, and suggesting the addition of certain clauses with reference to scavenging contracts.
The Chairman said the draft Bill was being printed and would be circulated. The amend ment of the Ordinance was deemed necessary because it was found impossible to deal with certain points in the form of by-laws, and it was therefore proposed to provide for them by Ordinance.
The Secretary read a letter from Dr. Cantlie giving notice of his intention to raise the ques tion of the epidemic hospital, to ask what had been done as to the selection of a site, and to make a proposal as to a site.
The Chairman said a site had been surveyed by himself, the Surveyor-General, Dr. Atkin. son, and the Sanitary Board officer, and had been recommended to the Goverment.
Dr. Cantlic-We have no knowledge of that. The Chairman-No, it has not come before the Board yet.
Dr. Canilie--The sooner we have notice of it the better.
The Chairman suggested that Dr. Cantlie should draft a motion for the next meeting.
The Board then adjourned,' the Chairman intimating that an emergency meeting would he held next Wednesday to consider the Building Ordinance.

currence of the tragedy and the funeral of 1 udolph. Before there was time to concoct god circumstantial account which would hold well together, official people blurted out that Rudolph was shot behind the ear in a diagonal direction and that the coronal part of the skul was carried off by the ball as it went out of the cad. Nothing at all was said of Mary Voser. the pistol if she had not bees shot in the back. We might fancy that it was she who discharged

Does. not this point to a woman's hand, to a maniac from jealousy and to irony, in her vengeance P The diagonal shot upward also points to some by having been concealed in the room under a bed or table at some other piece of furniture, and creeping along stealthily until he or she got up to the steeping rair, and placed the muzzle of the pistol close to Rudolph's head. firing up at it. Mary, doubtless, on hearing the shot jumped up, when she was knocked over by pistol shot in the back. There were mutila tions, also, af bath bodies which showed manip- cal hatred," The Baroness Vosers, I am told, calls for justice. It is withheld to prevent a worse scandal then that which has been stirring the world for the last fortnight. The letters an- uneing suicidal intent have been pointed out a me as overdone. Why, of all persons in the world, should Rudolph have written on this sub- ject to the Duke of Braganza, with whom he was lightly acquainted and who lives at Lisbon? If Braganza had only lived a stone's throw fom the Hofburg, one might understand the curt missive in which Rudolph, after announcing his intention, wishes him good evening

Why should. Rudolph, with his great expectations, have taken a suicidal plunge with his inamorata? At Vienna, where minners and morals are lax, it would have been thought a. feather in her cap to have made a conquest of him and to have been conquered in Terurn, The Pope refused Rudolph a divorce because he applied for it as Crown Prince, and his Holiness wanted to render service to the King of the Belgians, who might in return for it be expected not to give his daughter Clementine to the Prince of Naples. The hypothesis of a doub'e murder s everywhere accepted out of England. Some imagine that the shots must have been fired by. a brother of the young Prince; others by gamekeeper, and then there is a theory of an ilustrious personage, having lain in ambush under the table until the lovers were asleep, Hut the curious thing is that every one out of England thinks it all right that the heir apparent in the dual empire should have been shot because he was en bonne fortune. The tendency on the Continent is to keep down gallantry by granting immunity to kill those who are caught,
JONDON. February 6th. The approaching visit of the Shah to England is causing much embarrassment to the court officials. He comes to all Europem courts aš a guest and expects to be received with at least the same honors which were accorded him in 1873. The Czar is preparing to give Nasreddin a magnificent recention both at Moscow and St. Peterburg, and is already preparing for the gresiest review of troops that has ever been beld in Russia to take place during his day. What is to be done with his Majesty in England is not yet settled, but the Queen in resolved not to give him quarters Buckingham Palace again. having decided that there is to be na repetition of the Oriental orgies which took place there in 1871, when every room which had been occupied by Persians had to be entirely repainted, rede-through Paris, but what I believe is that a very corated and refurnished in consequence of their eccentricities.

I hear that the Queen has issued orders that any noble gentlemen who may be considered to have misconducted themselves, but whose offenses have not been such as to justify exclusion from court, are to be punished by not being invited to state balls or state concert.
When King Bomha of Naples imprisoned Thebe, who demanded that his prison rules be changed so as to be in accordance with Justice and not to treat as a felon one whom the Italiane regarded as an honorable statesman, Mr. Gladstone, denounced him, and the, British Government withdrew their representative from Naples. If the United States Senate Follow our example and decline to confirm the appointment of any Minister to this country so long as Trish representatives are treated as felons, Americans many rest satisfied that every Liberal in this country would approve their action. Salisbury and the classes have always shows themselves bitter enemies of America. During the Sackville Incident Lord Salisbny went out of his way to explain that Mr. Cleveland lost the election because he packed Lord Sackville and his baggage out of the country for having inter fered with the election and for having subse quently explained to a reporter that an American Secretary of State could not be believed. He has deferred the appointment of a Minister to Washington as a species of punishment. American dislike of Lord Salisbury is no new thing. He was one of the vice-presidents of the Southern Independence Association, the object of which was the promotion of the cause of the rebellion In America.

Mrs. Chamberlain, as I understand from those who have the privilege to know her, is a lady possessed of so many charms and good qualities that Mr. Chamberlain, who seems, in his new LOOK OUT!!! born love of ancestry, to be more proud of her great-grandfather than of her, may well be con- gratulated upon having won her. But it is a singular want of good taste on the part of that gentleman to seize upon the opportunity of the English ladies presenting his wife with an address of welcome which, of course, was personal rather than political, and which any Gladstonian lady, would with pleasure sign-drag in his own political views, and thus, under the protecting petticoats of his wife, vent his rancour at not having been accepted as the leader of the Liberal party, vics Gladstone removed. So far as I-can make out from his speech on the address to Mrs..
