"At their meeting last night a proposition from P. S. Hildreth, consulting engineer, New York, was received.

He proposed to establish an electric light plant in the village and furnish 32 candle power incandescent lights for the streets at a cost of $25 each per year and 1C candle power lights for private consumers at $6 each per year. After six months' trial the village could purchase for $30,000 the entiro plant, which would pay for itself, charging at the same rate, in eight years, and. after which, it could be run at a profit to the village. The system is one of the latest, the Edison three wire, direct, low tension system, and Is much used in New York city buildings. This, with the other propositions, was referred to the light committee, which will report as soon as possible.

HOW SICK PEOPLE MAY SAVE ENERGY. THELR It is as hard work for some people to di 'gesis their dinner as It is for a normal man to walk ten miles. "After dinner rest a while." This Is an ui saying. It means that if after eating a meal ynu try to do hard work you will exhaust all your energy. There will be ncma ff.

for your stomach. Your stomach needs energy to work just as your leg or arm does. Sii people want energy. They seldom have enough for their stomach. Their digestion Is out of order ami they want to know the reason.

It's simple enough as ye hav told It. What they ought to do is to save their stomachs from hard work until it is capable of doing It. just as they reft their tired backs by lying down. This can do by using artificially digested food. Shaker liigestivo Cordial contains such food: not only this, but it ia capable of digesting other foods in the stomach.

Shaker Digestive Cordial affords nourishments and creates new energy as soon as it is swallowed. Ordinary food first has to bo digested. Shaker Digestive Cordial, vhll creating new energy, does not expend any. It gives the stoiirioh no work ti do. It will make thin people at.

Sick jeople are naturally thin. Getting thin is a sign of sickness. A person may be bnrn tliin, and naturally remain so. Such a is not necessarily Pick. All Druggists keep It, and a 10 cent sample bottle may first he tried.

A PASTOR WITH RITUALISTIC TENDENCIES FORCED TO RESIGN. Mattituck, L. December 3 Pastor T. H. Griffith of the Xorthvllle Congregationalist church has sent in his resignation and it has been accepted.

The cause of the disruption is a row caused by the pastor introducing several weeks ago a responsive form of service which the members, who are descendants of the Puritans, claim is too decidedly ritualistic leaning toward Episcopalianlsm. The members of the congregation refused to read the responses and the congregation dwindled to smaller numbers each week. Finally an indignation meeting was held at the house of one of the deacons and was largely attended. When the cimmittee appointed at this meeting waited upon the pastor he treated them very coolly. He became very indignant at the criticism of the order oi service and termed It an insult.

Ajs Mr.Grifflth Etlll persisted in his obnoxious methods the deac.ns met and parsed a resolution rejecting the new order of service. The pastor was informed by them of their action and at once offered his resignation to take effect January 1. Sunday night a crowd of curious people filled the church edifice to the doors. After going through with the new service, Mr. Griffith proceeded to make what he termed, a few preliminary remarks wh.lch lasted forty minutes, and in which he said he criticised the congregation most bitterly.

Among other things he said: "The flock is far from being a Congregationalist one. Many of the members here are Episcopalians, while others are Methodists, and there are those who ought to belong to the Salvation Army." He defended the order of service by saying that It was first proposed by his wife, who died only a few weeks ago, and that was why It was so dear to him. He then talked furiously and assailed the congregation in most bitter terms. "One church member here," he said, "has been talking much, and unless he ceases his attacks upon me, there will be trouble for 'him, for in my possession is evidence enough to send that church member to state prison. He is bound for perdition anyway.

God Almighty will never forgive him." The good farmers looked about at each other in a horrified manner. He further said: "I intend to remain in the church until Januarj first, when I will accept a parish in Brooklyn. This may be my last Sunday here." After the service an indignation meeting was held, but what action to take is as yet undetermined. Mr. Griffith has preached at Xorthvllle for about four years.

He came from up the state. There has been much opposition to his pastorate for some time pR3t; many refused to subscribe for his services and within the past year a majority of the congregation has been opposed to his re engagement for another year. About a year ago some of the members gave the Salvation Army the privilege to hold services in the academy or lecture room of the church for an evening. Mr. Griffith announced: "If the Salvation Army is allowed to come into our midst I will sever my connection with the church at once." The members of the church were disappointed, but the Salvation ists were notified that they could hold no meetings.

Among the prominent members of the flock upholding Mr. Griffith are Hallock Luce and Deacon Halsey Hallock. Those opposing him are Deacons George Aldrlch. Chauneey Howell, Horace Downs, Arthur W. wells.

Hallock. Frederick S. Downs. Les ley L. Terry.

December 3 The charter election which was held here yesterday was probably one of tho most Interesting and spirited ever held in this village. The excitement was caused principally by the fact that the regular citizens' nominations were declared void by a technicality of the law, so that the followers of che party had to write the names of ail their candidates on the ballot. The citizens' party, although thus handicapped, succeeded in electing their ticket by a rousing majority. More votes were cast at this election than at the late general election, something unprecedented In the history of the village. The successful candidates for trustees were Thomas Egan, George J.

Golsnerand Charles Michel, and their election gives universal satisfaction. The total vole cast for the respective candidates was as follows: Thomas Egan, 52u; George Golsner, 44U; Charles Michel, 41S; Michael Jench, 241; Charles Marx. Charles Veuer, 203. E. H.

Beiilerlinden was elected police justice, the vote being as follows: Bei deriinden. 216; Thomas Smyth. 200; William Heinze. 127; William H. H.

The successful candidate's and their vote follows: Trustees, Samuel I). Roe, 210; Frank Bartlett. 2SC; Lawrence Collins. 273. Water commissioner.

It is an excellent vehicle for the display of the talents which has made Miss McHenry the favorite that she has been with the theatergoing public for twenty years. Louis Harrison, the well known comedian, is the author ot the piece. His efforts show that he tried not merely to string a tew meaningless words together as an introduction lor songs and dances, but to satirize some of the fads of the present day. The new woman, the bicycle craze, bloomers, hypnotism and suggestions of other subjects that have enjoyed an ephemeral success recently are treated in an attractive and amusing manner. There are one or two serious passages brought in to show that Hiss McHenry Is equally at home In depicting emotions as in farcical work.

Mr. Harrison has provided the text for several comtc operas and burlesques which proved for the most part to consist of quibs, puns and gags. In "The Bicycle' Girl" he does not restrain himself in this respect, but none of Ms Jokes are inane. With these features there Is color, an attractive atmosphere and brisk action. Indeed Miss McHenry would rush a much more labored composition through by the sheer force of her bustling energy.

Time has dealt gently with her. Her movements are as springy and her spirit as unflagging as they have always been. She Is an indefatigable worker; her laughter Is spontaneous and her humor infectious. In fact she rattles through the piece with such all pervading cheeriness and geniality that an auditor takes a delight In her apparent enjoyment of her fun. Charles P.

Morrison, her chief assistant, is a promising young farce comedian. He has a pair of flexible legs, a good singing voice and humor that crops out at every opportunity. Miss Dello Jackson displays a cultivated and facile soprano voice in several songs. Much of its sweetness is robbed, however, by frequent forcing which produces reedy tones. John Webster makes a satisfactory lov and Henry Laurent cuts a ludicrous figure the husband ot a new woman.

W. E. Ritcnie gives a remarkable exhibition of trick riding on a bicycle and his incidental acrobatic work. Laura Bennett sings several quaint negro melodies and yodels to the accompaniment of a guitar and Julia Glover, Ethel Tyler and Lillian De Gross take minor characters.
