A REMINISCENT TROLLEY RIDER UNBURDENS HIMSELF. "That 1b one of the most delightful Jaunts I have ever enjoyed," said an old Brooklynlte as he stepped from one of the new Pullman trolleys, to an Eagle reporter recently. "But I mind the time when we could not ride thus," he added, "and while we now are given the palace street cars has it occurred to any in the City of Churches how Brooklynites1 of the early part of the century journeyed to FlatlandB, Flushing and along the south side? The children of this generation take the marvels of the telegraph and the telephones, the luxurlousness of our great sound and river steamers, of the huge ocean greyhounds and of the enumerable railroads that envelop our maps in a maze as a matter of course, and now Brooklyn society, young and old, can step from its parlors into a portable drawing room and go whither it will. Perhaps it may interest some of the Eagle readers to turn back a page or two and view the means of travel In the first quarter of the century we are now so rapidly and luxuriously completing. With that in view, before going on this little trip around the city I put in my pocket book a clipping from the Long Island Star of March 13, 1816.

The paid' Are department was introduced in the old town of New Utrecht yesterday, when all the newly appointed men reported, for duty at their respective engine, houses.

Superintendent Nevins and Assistant Chief James F. Murray began the work of organising the companies by visiting Engine No. 41 at Bay Ridge. During the day engine houses at Fort Hamilton, Bath Beach, Bath Junction and South BenBonhurst were visited. The superintendent took particular care to instruct the men in the use of the chemical engines, which are attached to the hook and ladder trucks.

There are not more than a dozen hydrants In the town and the firemen will depend much on their activity and chemicals to prevent fires from gainng headway. Assistant Chief Murray also had instruction's to give the men and he saw that the alarm system was in order. Veterinary Surgeon Hurd also made the rounds to see that the horses were all right.

FJJATLANDS AGAINST CONSOLIDATION. The people of Flatlands are not worrying over the apparently unfounded rumor that Mayor Wurster is thinking about framing a bill for the repeal of the Flatlands annexation act in order to restore the county government. One of the prominent residents of the new ward said to an Eagle reporter last night: "If a vote on such a bill was taken in our town next week it would be overwhelmingly in favor of it.

The general opinion is that, we have nothing to expect from Brooklyn for a long time save increased taxation, and that to get back the autonomy of our local affairs would be quite a boon. However, there is no foundation for the story at all, so I have been told, which seems to have sprung from the imagination of a consolidationist, for the mere faot that such retrogressive legislation was contemplated would demonstrate the poverty and helplessness of Brooklyn. The people out here are not in favor of consolidation, for the Bimple reason that if the two btg cities were united and brought under one government, our situation would be still worse. No, we prefer Brooklyn to greater New York. Although bur hopes are small with regard to receiving, at least in the near future, any advantage from our union with Brooklyn, greater New York would relegate us still further to the rear, except In the matter of politics.

Of course Tammany would want our votes. Given the choice between Brooklyn and New York, we'll take Brooklyn every time, for while she is poor, she is honest, and will give us at least a clean government. "In my judgment Flatlands will vote solidly against consolidation if the question is again submitted to the people of Brooklyn, as it ought to be." WANTS THE ENGINE HOUSE. The residents of that portion of the Twenty ninth ward which lies south of Avenue iu Flatbush believe that there ought to be a Are engine house nearer to them than the one on East Broadway, which is at a distance of about a mile. They have decided to petition the city authorities to erect an engine house in the neighborhood of Avenue and East Thirty seventh street.

A UNION SUNDAY SCHOOL. THE RESIDENTS OF KENSINGTON ANXIOUS TO BUILD A CHURCH. There is a union Sunday school which is doing a good work at Kensington, L. and the members of which are anxious to build a church or chapel in order to accommodate the increased demands made on the organization. The following appeal, which has just been issued by the Sunday school, is self explanatory: "We think It should be a matter ot uncommon interest to every Christian who hears of it, and certainly to every profound reader of the Bible, that the Sunday school of Kensington, L.

is a union Sunday school, and a place of meeting tor Christians of all denominations to unite in the worship of the God of our Father Abraham, for 'Christ hath opened the kingdom of heaven to all We learn from the scriptures that John the Baptist was the forerunner of Christ's first coming, and that the Prophet Elijah has been appointed to be the forerunner of Christ's second coming. Jesus left the infant church in its oneness and purity; but before the Apostle Paul finished his work and mission he discerned that an evil had already begun which would run through the world like a pestilence, and so he cried out: 'Now, this I say, that everyone of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of ApollOB; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ. Is Christ divided? Was Paul Crucified for you? Or were baptized in the name of Now, however, the Christian church is divided into many factions, and so much of its strength against the power of the great enemy is ineffectual. Our standard of truth reminds us that the church is the bride, and it is said, in the future tense, that 'the bride hath made herself but no one dare hazard an opinion as to which of the numerous churches now, or will, represent the bride. "The prophet Mal achi, before he closed his prophetic career, delivered his last and solemn message to the church everywhere scattered upon the face of the earth.

'Behold, I will send you Elijah, the prophet, before tho great and dreadful day of the Lord; and he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a We contend that the Lord knew that it would be indispensably necessary to send the Prophet Elijah in the last daya to remove at one stroke the isms that do now exist among Christians, to 'make them of one to mako 'them see eye to for wo give it as our firm conviction, that If upon the Lord's return to earth He should find His people with all the differences of opinion as now, the cultivation of the spirit of envy, the contradictory teaching, each Clinging tenaciously to his own particular doxy, yet all professing to be governed by the teachings of the same inspired volume, that Ho would see nothing worth saving, but would 'smite the earth wl'th a for the 'salt will have lost its The division of the church into factions is, perhaps, on ot the most efficient means for the accomplishment of Satan's infamous designs against the peace and prosperity of an unadulterated gospel. When tho church is enduring the unparalleled persecutions of the anti Christ tho time of 'Jacob's trouble' as spoken of by the Lord, 'such as was not since the world began, ovou to that time, no, nor ever shall be; and except the Lord had shortened the days no flesh living could be saved, but for the elect's sake He hath shortened the will be the time for the descent of tho prophet Elijah to comfort believers and to oppose the anti Christ spoken of by Daniel, 'when many shall be mado white, purlflen and "We have had, from tho start, faith enough to believe that there never would be wanting a man to stand on our union platform to speak unto the people, and wo have not been mistaken.
