GAS GONsUMPTION.
HOW THE BROOKLYN COMPANIES HAVE
ENRICHED THEMSELVES BY 1NCoR-
RECT METERS

HOW THE BROOKLYN COMPANIES HAVE
ENRICHED THEMSELVES BY 1NcoR-
RECT METERS.
The agitation among the consumers
of gas in Brooklyn has brought forth
some practical results through the
active efforts of few influential resi-
dents. A few weeks ago Union st.
man concluded that the gas company
was not dealing fairly with him, and
John Burns. The instrument regis
tered 9 per cent. fast. He showed the
result to the officers of the gas COM
pany, and they with some reluctance
repaid him A per cent. of the extra
charge for the last two years. The law
regulating the obligations of gas com:
panies allows for an overregister of 2
per cent. The officers also paid for
the expense of the inspection by Mr..
Burns, but they said that thereafter
they would pay only for the over
charge by too fast registering meters.
The success of the Union street resi-
dent melted other persons to have
their meters examined, and ten meters
had been tested within the last week,
one only of which was ascertained to
be correct. The remaining nine regis
tered too fast by from to Is per cent.
In the residence of Mr.. Hugh Boyd, of
No. 80 Tompkins place, was a meter
that had been there for sixteen years.
The test showed that it registered 13
per cent. too fast. The gas company.
on complaint of Mr.. Boyd, made re-
duction of IL per cent. on their bills of
the past three Or four months only
Another man had a meter that was 10
per cent too fast, and another 6 per
cent. In several cases gas consumers
have not been satisfied with the re-
duction allowed by the company, and
are preparing to institute suit, one con-
sumer demanding $3.50. The company
assert that he is entitled TO only $50,
which they have pain.

A Few Words to Feeble and Delicate

1.-The Peoples Common Sense Medical
Adviser" etc, etc.
Rowing that you are subject to q great
amount of uffering, that delicacy on
your part has strong tendency to pro-
long it., and the longer it is neglected the
more you have to endure and the more
difficult of cure your case becomes, /, as
physician, who am daily consulted by
scores of your sex, desire to say to you,
that am constantly meeting with those
who have been treated for their ailments
for months without being benefited in
the least, until they have become per-
fectly discouraged and have almost made
up their mind never to take another dose
of medicine, or be tortured by any fur
ther treatment. They had rather die
and have their sufferings ended than to
live and suffer as they have. They say
they are worn out by suffering, and are
only made worse by treatment. OF any
thing more discouraging, we certainly
cannot conceive, and were there no more
successful mode of treating such Difficult
ties than that, the principles OF which
teach the reducing and depicting of the
vital forces OF the system, when the indi-
| cations dictate II treatment directly the
reverse of the one adopted for them,
their case would be deplorable indeed.
But, lady sufferers, there is better and
far more successful plan of treatment
for you one more in harmony with the
| laws and requirements Of your system
A harsh, irritating caustic treatment and
strong medicines will never cure you. IL
you would use rational means, such as
common-sens should dictate to every
intelligent lady, take such medicines as
embody the very best invigorating ton
les and nervines, compounded with
special reference to your delicate system.
Such happy combination you will find
in my Favorite Prescription. which has
received the highest praise from thous-
ands of your sex. Those languid, tire
some sensations, causing you to feel
scarcely able to be on your feet or ascend
a flight of stairs; that continual drain
that is sapping from your system all your
former elasticity, and driving the bloom
from your cheeks that continual strain
upon your vital forces that renders yoi,
irritable and fretful-may all be over.
come and subdued by a persevering use
of that marvellous remedy. Irregular
ties and distractions to the proper work.
ing of your system are relieved by this
mild and safe means, while periodical
pains, the existence of which is a sure
indication of serious disease that should
not be neglected, readily yield to it, and
if its use be kept up for reasonabl,
length of time, the special cause of thes,
pains Is permanently removed. Further

Gen. o. IL BabcOcL's TriUE.
COL. DYER's MAsTERLv PRESENTATION
THE EVIDENCE.

COL. DYER $ MASTERLV PRESENTATION
OF THE EVIDENCE.
ST. Louis. Feb. 23.-The concluding
argument made to day in the Babcock
case by District Attorney Dyer has
produced surprise, inasmuch as it va
ried in every respect from what was
anticipated. Col. Dyer has heretof ore
had reputation rather as O. platform
speaker than as an advocate, but his
argument to day was distinguished by
close reasoning from the evidence and
was mastery presentation of the case
against Babcock. There was no at
tempt to produce emotional effects,
such as were made by Stosrs and Por.
ter. Several points not heretofore con.
sidered were made in upsetting the
theory of Babcock's innocence. The
attempt of the defense to make scape
goat of Hoge was shown especially TO
be a failure, attention being called to
the fact that Hoge was not in league
with the ring here until November,
when he received his bribe, although
he had previously been sending infor-
nation to the Binghans. He and
Joyce were then enemies, and nothing
that he imrarted to the Binghams was
allowed to be used for Joyce's benefit.
His reference to the Sylph despatch
was also neat. Porter says Sylph
means woman, but why the signatures
Does j mean awomane Does B. mean
woman? No; there was probably only
one woman in this thing. The plain,
honest, opinion of the plain, honest
country will be that he signed this
despatch "Sylph" because he didn't
want to sign it 80. E. Babcock."
This ended the argument. The
court adjourned until 10 o'clock To-
morrow, when it is expected Judge
Dilton will charge the jury and give
the case into their hands.
