One day Dick displaced a sign In his window, offering to the public a fine lobster salad, seasoned with a celebrated sauce of foreign ingredients, at a nominal price, and Harry promised a sncculent hash free of charge. Tern didn't mind the doings of his rivals very much and kept on iu the same old way, providing good, wholesome, easily digested food to his patrons. But somehow the lobster salad and the luscious hash tempted many of Tom's customers to have a try at them. Dick's and Harry's places were soon packed at first more out of curiosity and tbe novelty of the thins than for any other reason. But tbej partook freely and generously of the lobster salad with the piquant sauce and ot the savory hash, and swore that they had found the real thing.

But the human stomach was never Intended to digest and assimilate highly seasoned lobster salad and hash for any length of time, and soon Dick's lobster salad got in Its fine work. Indigestion, dyspepsia and horrible nightmares were the results of partaking of that delicacy, and when Harry's patrons found shoe buttons and hairpins In his celebrated hash, Tom's old customers swore that that was the limit. They declared Dick's and Harry's enterprise a dismal failure and resolved that Tom's menu was good enough for them. Tom welcomed them baok and tried to please them more than ever. Moral Beware of Dick's and Harry's newfangled innovations.

Archdeaconries Urged to Greater Effort. Conditions in Grsenpoint Canarsie Hector Called. The Northern Archdeaconry of Brooklyn, the Protestant Episcopal Chrurch, held a meeting last night In the Diocesan House, street, Bishop Burgess presiding. With him was the Rev. St.

Clair Hester, the archdeacon, and the Rev. W. I. Stccher, the secretary. There was preset ti Rev.

J. Russell, the recently appoints archdeacon ot Erookljn. There are at present two archdeaconries of Brooklyn, but they will amalgamated when tho diocesan convention takes the necessary action next May. Until that time, the tisl.cp suggested last night, the N'ortrtera and Southern boilcs will meet tcgetter. Ai t-xecutWo committee consisting ol tho two archfieucons and six men from ecch of the bodies, three clergy and three laity, has been appointed, and will act between the meetings of the arch-decccuries.

The members of the committee appointed last night to represent the Northern churches are the Rev. Howard Mellsh, the Rev. Dr. Robert Rogers and the Rev. W.

S. Baer, together with Dr. H. B. Schenck.

F. N. Noble and Dr. C. G.

Hopkins. The Rev. Mr. Mellsh called attention to the meeting held In the Y. M.

C. A. hall recently at which Dr. Laldlaw of the Federation of Churches, 'made an address upon the unchurched masses, of whom there are, according to statistics, something like In New York. He referred to the report made of the-efforts in the Fourteenth Assembly District of Manhattan, and the good accomplished which resulted In reducing the percentage of the unchurched.

Mr. Mellsh said that it was his opinion that co-operation In this borough like results could be obtained, by means of united effort and the division1 of the boroughs into districts, JUBt as the politicians did. If tbe churches were they could carry on great work; but they never could succeed unless all Joined in such a movement. The Rev. Walter E.

Bentley, of the Church of the Ascension, in Greenpoint, in which 85,000 persons live, said he bad tried get his fellow clergy of that immense territory to join with him in having a canvass made. If the archdeaconry undertook the work It would be found to be of immense value. He had been the secretary of the movement in Manhattan, and St. Mark Church had been the backbone of the effort. There bad been added to that church SCO families.

Episcopalians who had lived in the district, but wbo bad not been known and who had dropped out ot the church. Afterward, to the reporter of the Eagle, Mr. Bentley said that all churches had taken part, and that the Roman Catholic priests had also co-operated. No action was taken the meeting of the archdeaconry, but it will not be allowed to drop. Mr.

Melish is Interested In the work, and so Is Dr. Rogers. They are both earnest men. The Rev. Thomas Gilbert Losee, who has been In charge of St.

Albans, Canarsle, which is a mission, announced that he had received a unanimous call to tbe church In Walden, N. and that be had decided to accept it. St. Albans was doing well, and the congregation was growing. me Kev.

Mr. Baer announced that a mass meeting In the Interest of missions of the diocese would be beld In St. Church on November 9, under tbe auspices of the women Auxiliary. WALDO SCORES RIDGWAY. Congressman Says Governor Flower Distrusted the Man When He Waa District Attorney.

Tbe Republicans of the Eighteenth Assembly District beld a large meeting last night at Saengerbund Hall, Rogers avenue and Clarendon road, Vandervecr Park, which waa addressed by Congressman George E. Waldo, Luclen S. Bayllss, Warren I. Lee, Alderman John Hann. Charles Cooper, Felix O.

Kier- nan and Henry Stengle, Jr. Charles 0. Klotx was chairman. Congressmsn Waldo, In referring to the Democratic nomination of James W. Rldgway, said that, when he was district attorney, at the time John Y.

McKane was prosecuted for stealing the elections, Governor Flower refused to trust McKane's prosecution to Rldgway. He added that the Governor again refused to repose confidence in the Integrity of Rldgway when the prosecution of the gamblers was In progress, but selected special attorney to carry along the prosecution. "Now, gentlemen, the borough president has the expending of almost all the money for this borough, yet the Democrats have the effrontery to put Into the field for that office this man, who could not be trusted as district attorney. The Democrats desire to get control of the revenues of this city and who can doubt, if they bava 1115.000,000 or each year to expend, that It will have much weight four years hence In the presidential election. They are trying to make this campaign thoroughly political and It Is the duty ot all of you In these city questions to stand by Ivlns.

It is against the Interest of the city or good government that either Hearst or McClellan should be elected." FREMONT CLUB RALLY. Major Ebstein, the Principal Speaker, Compares tb Work of Low and McClellan Administrations. The Fremont Club of the Second Assembly District held a rally In the club rooms last night that was full of enthusiasm for tho Republican ticket.

Candidate in I'7fo7i Divided. Onff of fhtt most IntprpHtin ln' tA being waged In the present campaign ewses They are three candidates in the fild for the sembly. Assemblyman Thomas H. O'Neill is the Republican candidate, Jainet T. Brad) la carrying the Democratic: standard, and Lawrence Cavo is making the Sunt for the Municipal Ownership League.

Both Brady and Cavo are new, hands at tbe political game, while O'Neill has already had the experience of two campaigns, In which he came out on top. The Indications are that he will not have the easy time this year, though, that he has had in the past. Urady, the Democratic candidate, is making a hustling canvass, and he says he is going to win. Ordinarily It Is not customary for a Democratic candidate for this Assembly district to predict his own election, because the district Is Republican and a Democrat has never carried It, although tn the year Coler ran tor governor the Democratic candidate for the Assembly came within fifty votes of defeating John Hill Morgan. Brady Is a young man who Is popular with the young men of the First Ward, which Is the Republican end of the district, and with tbe normal Democratic vofe plus the discontented independent Republican vote back of him, Brady says he Is going to represent the First District in the Assembly next year.

His aomlnallon was brought about by the young men of the First Ward. He really thlnkB one element In bis favor is the fact that there is a Municipal Ownerehlp candidate In the held. Brady says Cavo, the Municipal Ownership candidate, who Is a member of Plymouth Church, is going to draw largely from the Republican vote. UNITED CHURCH'S PAIR.

The Harmonle Social Club, composed of some ot the lively spirits tn the Congress Club, held a stag theater party last night at the Oayety Theater. There were about 150 In tbe party, composed of members ot the club and their friends.

Deprecate Discussion of Partisan Politics From the Pulpit. Says Effect Is Bad. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: As a church member have viewed certain aspects of this and other political campaigns with a deep and growing disgust. There are tn this city a number of ministers of the Gospel who think that somehow It la their duty to use all means, even the church itself, to advance their own personal opinions upon political questions. They take a dogmatic stand in reference to matters about which -other men differ, and, forgetful of their high and sacred calling, would substitute for the brotherly kindness engendered by all true religion the rancor Of partisanship.

The worshipper who enters the house of God tor spiritual comfort and for strength to fight against the evils of this world may be obliged to listen to a partisan political sermon, have all his finer nature outraged and carry away, not "the peace of. God, Vhinh passeth all understanding," but a Feeling of resentment against, the one who has, endeavored to force his political beliefs upoD his hearers and. ha.s. thus profaned the temple. tn this feeling may be fonhd an answer to the question why churches nre not better attended.

While a sensational' and noto-rloty-seeklng minister may for a time secure an Increased attendance, yet he cannot hope to compete with the other worldly attractions, and In the end he will find that he has not only lost the curious but that ho has driven away fronVhls church the earnest and sincere worshipper. CHURCHMAN. Brooklyn, October 31, 1905. BOROUGH TICKETS COMPARED. Mr.

Hogan Analyzes the Two Sets of nominations Champions the Ee-' publican Side. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: I would like you to grant me space in your Independent paper for some mention of our candidates. A vote for Ebstein Is a vote for 'clean and economical government; a vote for Rldgway Is a vote for McCarren-lsm. with all that It entails. Either Ebstein or Color Is a safe man for the borough of Brooklyn.

Both have been tried and not found wanting. The Demo-oratio borough ticket can be sized up In this way: Rldgway as McCarren's personal representative on the Board of Estimate; Whltebouse as the representative of the brewers' Interest. Just think of It! It Is enough to keep any Democrat from" voting the. Democratic -Westernacher for vindication a man whose regularity dates away back to 1908; Kaufmann to satiBfy Tammany's -East Side leader, Sullivan; dllten, tt please Father-in-law H. Quinn, following tnexample of Willoughby street families to 'be cared for; Lavey, an unknown, nomination credited labor organization, "long fellow' 'Is fond of organized labor nit.

J- s- HOG AN, Brooklyn, 81, 190B. FACTS ABOUT CONTRACTS. Mr. Whiting Writes of the Law Kegard-- ittg Contracts Made With the City Authorities. Te the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: In your editorial yesterday headed, "Facts About Contracts and Contractors," you gave some of the facts, but not all of them.

The law provides for the award of contracts to lowest 'except that the Borough President or the bead of a department may reject all the bids, and also may, with tbj consent of tbe Board of and three-rourths voting In favor, give the contract to other than the lowest bidder. You say, Democratic municipal gov eroment has awarded contracts according to law." That Is true, but it Is not true that the lowest bidders have In every case been the contractors. This administration has jlven contracts to parties whose bids were auch higher than the lowest bide. do Dot say that there were.not Justifying ewons for such action. I am simply adding to the facts about contracts and contractors.

Under the law the Board of Estimate and Apportionment can give all the contract work of the city to whomsoever they ylaasa. I do not know if there are any state tfflolals with corresponding power. The Charter law on contracts requires that ill bids shall be publicly opened by the officer or officers advertising for the same, ind In the presence of the Controller, though bis sbsenoe does not postpone the opening. This is a provision of law complisnce with vhlnh should be compelled by the dally ress. No official should be allowed to receive bids privately, with the possibility of manipulation or revelation to the Interest a favorite bidder.

While on this matter, allow me to say that 1 ttannot tbtnk of any result on Election Day that will be so beneficial for contractors and tor the public as the election of Mr. Ivlns, with his high character, his splendid ablli- tins. bls comprehensive understanding of municipal affairs; of Mr. Teale, with hi slean record, read by and known of all the people of this borough; his faithfulness and ifflolency In the Important positions he has held, and of the -high grade citizens present-ad for our votes In this grand old city and grander young borough by the Republican R.

WHITING. Brooklyn, October 81, 1905. MR. HAVILAND ON HEARST. Brooklyn M.

0. Adherent Sure Els Can didate Will Win, Because He "Doe Things." To the Editor ot the Brooklyn Eagle It Is certainly very amusing to peruse such a communication as that of H. T. Herxberg, and to And him picturing all tho evils at tendant upon the Brooklyn Hapld Transit and the gas company's oppression, and then asking, "What has Mr. Hearst done to glvo vou any ground for believing him capable carrying out bis promises! If this Mr.

Horzberg bad been a resident of Brooklyn for the last nine years, and a oarer til reader ot the Brooklyn Eagle, he would not have admitted such utter 'anorance. Was It not Mr. Hearst who, at the close it Brooklyn's life sa a municipality, pre- Vented COrrunt Rnitrrl Af Alrinrnien irlvlnff away fifty of Brooklyn's finest avenues to this railway In perpetuity? Did he not in trrpose an Injunction, and rob exafters of the aldermanlc graft they were seeking, Every child in thla community knows that and did he not do this at his own expense? Througa Mr. Hearst's Interposition through the courts, he held up the gas grab of Inst year, and saved this municipality millions of dollars. Where has this man Herxberg been sleeping these many years, that he should be Ignorant of what William Randolph Hearst has done and Is doing for the people? Mr.

Hearst will because he Is the friend of the plain people, and because he does things. By the way, what silly twaddle you hear now from political Jobbers and their allies about Brooklyn being unrepresented. What difference does It make whether honest men like Huarst, Ford and Stokes live on thla aide or on the other sldo of the East River? Tho borough prl'sldcnl takes rare of the borough.

Brooklyn, October HI, Iwi. DISPUTES CENSUS FIGURES. Mr. Blankley Believes Growth of Brook- lyri'Is Much Greater Than State 1. Eeports Indicate.

To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: The state census shows that the increase In population in Brooklyn since 1000 Is an average of 38,401 a year. For the ten years previous, ending 1900, the Increase was 328,035, a yearly average of 32,803. During tho past five years the average yearly Increase in Brooklyn was 5,658 more than for the previous. decade. Are these figures correct? Personally 1 believe tho state census, so far as Brooklyn is concerned, is not only Incorrect, but a great injustice has been done to the borough.

Not long ago It was published in some of the papers that it would be necessary to take the census over again, because It had been found that the reports sent In were faked. The figures given out by the state seem to bear out this charge. for one, will make affidavit that I never was visited by the census taker. I am certain that if the Eagle were to make a canvass of the neighborhood In which I live it will find a 'great many others who have not been visited. To the ordinary observer It must be obvious that the increase In Brooklyn during the past five years has been very much greater than the records given out by the state.

The development In the borough since 1900 has been, almost unprecedented In the history of this country. The building statistics will prove this as well as the Introduction of many large enterprises. I have no doubt there are many other readers of the Eagle who have not been visited by tbe census taker, and I believe it would make an interesting record If they would write you of this fact FRANK W. BLANKLEY. 775 Union street.

October 31, 1905. A DARK Complaint Is Made of the Scanty Illumination of the Montague Street Cable Cars. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: Will you bo good enough to suggest, through the columns of your Valued paper, if it Is possible, the reason that exists for the brilliant lighting of the street cars of the Montague street line of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit system. In this day of ex cellent lighting of vehicles of all descriptions, one must presume, that this Is a joke. We have fully grasped the humorous side of It.

but protest that it has bad all the run to which It Is entitled. I am told that this is the only line of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit's system which is actually owned by the company. If this is true and the company is holding up tho Montague street line as the horrible example of how much worse it might be If the whole system was in us possession, we see the point. But Just now it Is the corporation's move. mat such a thing has been tolerated so long is more than the company ought to have hoped, and it would be appreciated If this matter received prompt attention.

There are other instances In Brooklyn where tbe car lighting might well receive attention, and It would be "Very unfortunate If the company should proceed along a policy that would compel the same drastic measures that proved so effective In the case of the Manhattan elevated a few years ago. iw engineering difficulties may easily be met, and the cost to equip the few cars run on that line with the best lighting system to be had Is so trifling, compared te the Injury to tbe eyesight of the thousand or more passengers carried every hour of the rush time, as to put it out of consideration. We have ceased to mourn the disappear ance of tho "bob-tailed" horse-car from our streets. May we not soon bid a fond faro-well to the traveling cellars of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit's "own line."

31, 1905. "MRS. WARREN'S PROFESSION." Dr. Gorton Regards Play as a Great Moral lesson and Deplores Its Suppression. 1 To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: I am aware that the press of New York, with unusual unanimity, has pronounced against the play, "Mrs.

Warren's Profession." That was to be expected. But I. for one, since such a verdict of the press will result In the suppression of the play, am sorry for It. Most men ot wide experience and observa tion of real life know that the play Is grounded upon the truth, the actual truth of modern "Christian" society. If turning the lime light upon the course and conduct ot our "eminent financiers" will lead to re forming the odious tricks of that business would not the turning of the light of publicity upon the gross hypocrisies of our "re spectable" society, which by no means are exaggerated In this play, lead to a wholesome reform, of It? I have read "Mrs.

Warren's Profession" and declare It, as a profound conviction, that If It could be faithfully presented In all the theaters of the city It would do more good than all the sermons preached In the pulpits of all ts churches. DAVID ALLYN GORTON. Brooklyn, October 31, 1905. SURE OF IVINS' ELECTION. Mr.

Robertson Will Have Hi Joke, as His Letter Shows. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: As a Republican I have considered the twa articles on your editorial page of last night with the captions "For Earnest and Patriotic Republicans to Consider" and "More Than a Straw," and I have come to the conclusion that Mr. Ivlns will be the next Mayor ot Greater New York. The Eagle prophesies that either McClellan or Mr. Hearst will be elected; aud judging; from the Eagle's former efforts In that line, I think a good many Republicans will say they have a pretty sure thine In Mr.

Ivlns. You say "the Republican party largely comprises reasoning men and Intelligent men, men who have repeatedly saved the municipality from radical and sinister ef forts, and men who should be moved, again to save the city from suoh efforts." They will be there on eleotlon day, and don't you lorget it: In "More Than a Straw" It seems as toundlnsf that you should dally with those 1 hippodrome ngures, after the ludicrous nut- come of your postal card canvass of a year i o.

"India and Pcrala of To-day," formed tin topic of Profesaor A. V. W. Jackson's flfir. lecture on "Studies and Travels In the Orient" (Brooklyn Institute), at Ihe Act Gallery yesterday afternoon.

The lire aud condi tions of the people, as Dr. Jackson eaulaln ed, should have our attention that the situ atlun In the Orient may be unoeratood the readers of tho daily papers, and I. means ot inniern pnotOKrapna he took t) audience through Persia lo the I'eralan t)nf and then akeirhed In a similar manner t'l town and village life In India, rnruinontli I on mi many prniuema wnn wnirn tn. a have tu deal Id govtrulog this great ciuyli I borough president, was the first speaker. He went over the war record of the Democratic party aLd was disposed to think that the party was no more to be trusted to-day than In tho old days when It stood for disunion.

The speaker then referred to the work accomplished by the present city and borough governments which he declared was by no means what might have been done by men Interested In the affairs of a great city. In the matter of street pavements, Major Ebstein said that the claims of the Democrats that they had done more for Brooklyn than the Low-Swanstrom government that preceded It, would not bear close scrutiny. Littleton and McClellan had given Brooklyn for new street pavements Just one. half as mu.h money as given by their prede. cessors.

It was true, ho said, that Mr. Littleton had done more repaying that Mr. Swanstrom. hut It was nlso true that half of what he had done was under eontrsct hen he took office two years sgo, these contracts having been made by Mr. Swan, strom, who should be given he credit for them.

Tho major considered the matter of water and schools, which he said, as a member of the Board of Estimate, he would be in a way to help. He concluded his speech hy saying that he would. If elected, and he had no doubt of his election, do all In bis power to mnko a good administration. O. C.

Carpenter, of Washington, made a good speech. He dissected the pretensions it the Demorrstlc party and pointed to the large wealth that had been quickly acquired hy Hobs Murphy, concluding that the inconsistency shown by McClellan In signing the gas hill could easily be accounted for as an order from tho contract-getting boss of Good Ground. 1'hlllp T.
