A trial will convince any one. Weak and unhealthy kidneys are responsible for many kinds of diseases, and if permitted to continue much suffering with fatal results is sure to follow. Kidney trouble irritates the nerves, makes you dizzy, restless, sleepless and irritable. Makes you pass water often during the day and obliges you to get up many times during the night.

i Democrats Bury the Hatchet and All' Factions Ready for a Distribution of the Loaves and Fishes. i Special to the Eagle.) Long Island City, L. May 1 After au idleness of nearly five months the Oueens County Democratic Committee held a meet ing last night, the first since the election. The session was held in the Democratic Club house on Davis street, the old headquarters! on Jackson avenue having been long ago abandoned. There was a fair sized crowd present to listen to the proceedings.

Some thought that there would be a clash between the old factions, but they were sur prised that instead the purest political har niony prevailed. Patrick J. Mara, the Flushing leader, was present aua it seemed strange to see Cas sidy's old time antagonist supporting the Borough President with so much evident willingness. The rank and rile are still won dcring how it happened, but they do not seem to recognize the fact that, the budget having been finally settled. President Cassidy knows now where he is at and can deal out patron age to the full extent of the available funds.

Jamaica was also in line and it is expected that the hard workers in that ward will soon be enjoying choice plums along with the men from Flushing. The only absentee of note was former! County Clerk John U. Sutphin. He did not attend the meeting, but will probdbiy not I be surprised at anything the committee did, as it appeared to be pretty well understood that the old fight was over, all hatchets bur led. and the Democratic ranks solidly cc mentcd again.

i Ever since the death of the old leader, John P. Madden, the senatorial district comprising Queens and Nassau counties has not had a representative on the Democratic Stale Com I mittee. The Xassau County Commltitee met on March 5. and indorsed former Congress man '1 ownsend Scudder for the place. The Queens County Committee last night adopted a resolution requesting the State Committee to accept President Cassidy as a member, and it is believed that this action will be approved as the Democratic vote in Queens much larger than that in Xassau.

and now that the ptu'ty seems to he together again there will be little chance of Republicans winning any of the offices. The matter of reorganizing the ward committees was taken up, and the chairman was authorized in his judgment to appoint a committee of like number for each Democratic political faction in every ward of the borough to csnfe with a committee r.f the general committee for the purpose of reorganizing the Democratic party. The committee did not forget the working classes and their power at the polls, for they aaoptcn a resolution denouncing me ueei resolution mllrt terr'15 The was as follo.is.

yiiwuu lULIlsau I II ULLL.I TO BEGIN ST PATCHDGUE i Cars Will Be Running on Ocean Avenue From Village to Bay This Summer. FEEDERS MAYGO EAST AND WEST Company's Charter Extended and a Guarantee Given to Build to Port Jefferson in Two Years. (Special to I ho Eagle.) Patchogue, L. May 1 Th village trustees at a special meeting last aiciv asr 'od to an extension of the franchise gran to'! time ago to the Patchogue ami Port Jeffcr son Traction Company, as company has arranged with the United Slates Contracting' Company of 32 Liberty street. Manhattan, to; build the entire cross island road, from Sound to bay.

The conditions upon which the trustees granted the extension are in accord tvitb the, terms asked by W. P. Williams, that the road be built on Ocean avenue first and then extended to the bay and the Sound. Heretofore the village fathers have de manded that the cross island should be built in its entirety from Luns Island Sound, at Port Jefferson, across the island to the limits of Patchosue before, a rail could.be laid in this village, but at last night's joint confercn.ee the trustees waived that condition and consented to tbe request indi me road De commenced on Ocean ave cue. win De a single track road on the avenue, with three turnouts at equal intervals, and the construction of the road shall ue Buoject co tae approval oi the village trustees.

Mr. Williams said last r.ight to the Eagle reporter that it is his intention to begin building the road at once and that he will have the cars in operation between Main street. In the center of the village, and the Great South Bay by August 1 at the latest. As a guarantee that the read will be con tinned across the island the village trustees exacted a bond for $20,000 from the traction company, which is to he furnished to the traction company by the United States Contracting Company under the agreement between those two corporations, that the road shall be completed, fully equipped and in running operation from the Great South Bay at. Patchogue to Long Island Sound at Port Jefferson by May 1, 1904.

In granting the requtst of the Traction Company and Mr. Williams to first build the trolley road on Ocean avenue the village trustees took consideration the necessity for the promoters of the cross island route to have a substantial working basis on. which to raise bonds for the building of 'the entire route, and with a good paying feeder at this end of the cress islaua route it is believed the constructing company will now find no difficulty in completing the en tire road before the time specified. i The village trustees also exacted a bond i from the Traction Company, which will also be furnished by Mr. Williams' company, to indemnify the village from any damage during the construction of the road' within this village, terms of the bond allow ing' until November 1.

1002, ir.r the eornple tion of the road in this village. Under the terms of the amended franchise all excavations for the laving of rr.i:s, i within the incorporate limits shall be made before June 15, or after September 15. in order not to have the streets torn up during the summer season. Hie track is to he laid a little to one side from the center of the road. Other conditions of the fran chise are that the village shall have three per cent, of the gross receipts of the read and that the company will fully comply with i all provisions cf the state law on other mat i ters.

JC. C. Hume of the law firm of Hume Hawes of IS Wall street. Manhattan, was instructed to draw up the new franchise. which will be forwarded at dice to the Patchogue trustees for their signatures, and the next move trill be an application to the Brookhaven highway commissioners for an extension of the town fran Mr.

Williams is very or.thusiasii? over the cross island project and said: "We can build the cross island road at an estimated cast of about S15.000 a mile or less, or a total cost for the miles of about of the po.ver The estimated iccst of buildir the Pnichogne end will be 'cbnut. S73.030. and we expect to begin work' on building the read at once so that we can have the cars runnir.c on the avenue in 'he early summer. I nter we may oxter.d the road. east, and west en Main street, to Bcokhcven on the east anr? Sayville on the west." I Georg? D.

s. Small Stockholders Fearful That Their Holdings May Be Wiped Out. M. A. DRISCOLL'S EXPERIENCES.

Came All the Way From Haverstraw to Attend the Meeting, but Wouldn't Be Let In. (Special to the Eagle.) Hempstead. L. May 1 A special meet ing that waa held by the officials of the Min eoln, Hempstead and Freeport Traction Com pany on. April 19.

which was supposed to have been one of stockholders and at which the capital stock of the company was raised from I $125,000. to $1,000,000. $250,000 of which is to be preferred, has caused great deal of anxiety to many small stockholders who fear in this move a chance of their stock being wiped out. The meeting referred fi) is said to have: been held behind locked doofa at the office of the company on Main street. M.

A. Dris coll of Haverstraw, X. who came all the way to. attend the meeting, could riot get in. In speaking of the matter, Mr.

Driscoll said: "When I first heard or the proposed meet i ing of the stockholders I was informed that it was to be held in Freeport, but decided to come to Hempstead in order to find out conclusively. On arriving in Hempstead I called at the general offices of the trolley company, but found the door locked and the curtains drawn. I then called at the resi I dence of Mr. Ensign, the president of the company, and was informed ny Mrs. ttnsign that her husband had gone to Freeport.

On receiving this information I immediately obtained a carriage and drove there, only to find on my arrival that the meeting was to i be held in Hempstead. I retraced my steps and on arriving at the office of the company again tried to obtain admittance, but was unable to do so, and had to leave the village i without obtaining any information as to what I had been done. The first intimation I re I ceived as to what had been done. wa3 when 1 read in the Eagle that the company had I reorganized. Shortly after I called on P.

i C. Ackerman, the secretary of the trolley company, and asked him where I stood in the new reorganization and waa coolly informed that my stock had been wiped out by the ac tlon of the recent meeting of the so called i stockholders. I came to Hempstead again i last Saturday intending to meet my attorney and demand an opportunity to inspect the list of stockholders and the minutes of the meeting, but my attorney was engaged on a case in Manhattan and was unable to meet me. I intend to find out whether any busi i ness transacted by such methods as those employed on April 1ft will hold good, and I do not propose to be frozen out. I could tell a very interesting story of how many prominent residents of Nassau County, and especially Hempstead Town, obtained pos session of trolley stock at no cost whatever.

the only stipulation being that they were to use their good will to help the trolley com i pany get what it was after. Among the lis; can be mentioned two newspaper men. an overseer of the highways and other men prominent in the village affairs of Freeport 1 and Hempstead. I shall visit Hempstead again in the near future and demand to see John E. Sntign.
