RELIGIOUS NOTES.

All the Methodist conferences which
have met this fall with the exception OF
the German and Scandinavian ones, have
voted in favor of allowing women to be
members of the General Conference. That
the foreign born Methodists should be in
the negative is not strange. While
about all the conferences thus far have
favored the admission of women as dele
gates. those conferences are Western ones.
Those in tho East may be on the conser-
vative side. Progress in mary matters,
pursues course contrary to that OF the
sun, and the conservatism of the Metho-
dists of New England and the Middle
States may be too much yet awhile for
the liberalism of the Western sections.
As it takes three-fourths of the States to
amend the Federal Constitution, 60 the
organic law of the Methodist Church can
not be changed without tho concurrence
of three fourths of the conferences. 1t
will not take very large vote to keep the
women out for some time longer.
At the First Baptist Church, Rockland,
Sunday morning, the pastor, Rev. J. H.
Parshley, announced that the church
finances were in arrears to the amount of
$75 and that it was proposed to raise that
amount then and there before the sermon
| 1t took some little time, but at twenty
minutes before the time for closing Mr..
Parshley announced that his sermon was
spoiled but the church was saved.
The Winthrop Street Universalist
church Augusta, has contributed 500 to
the fund for the new Universalist Echurch
which will be erected in Kingfcld..
Miss Eleanor B. Stevens of Randolph,
awarded the honor of making the bag or

Bishop Nicely, Thursday carried the united
offerings of Maine to the Episcopal trien-
NAL convention, which takes place in
Minneapolis this week. The bag is of
light green chamois skin, laced with the
same, and ornamented with pine cones

First Mortgage G per cent Bonds.
DUE JULYI, 1896.

We have bought $633,O00 Maine
Central Consol. 4's, due 1912, and
offers the holders Of Leeds and Far
mington 6's, the opportunity to ex-
change the same for the former on
the following favorable terms.
On or before Nov. 18th, 1895, we
will deliver Maine Central Consol. As
at par, and prepay the interest due
April LIST, 1896, at 4 per cent per an
mum for the unexpired time, receiv-
ing in exchange an equal number of
Leeds and Pennington bonds, allow
ing par and 6 per cent accrued in
terest to date of exchange.
The above is equivalent to selling
the Leeds & Harrington bonds on a
8 7-8 per cent interest basis, and OBJ
tanning the long consolidated As at
par, by using the premium obtained
on the former in purchasing the As.
We beg to call attention to the
fact that these 4 per cent bonds are
now practically first mortgage on
the road, as there will be only ST.
253,300 outstanding when the
Leeds & Pennington are converted
out Of total of $9,000,O00, to take
the place Of prior lien bonds; in five
years this balance will have been re-
tired and the consolidated mortgage
become a first lien.
The saving in the interest charges
in the next few years is approx
mately $4,000; this is in addition to
amount saved in 1894 of $21, 900,
making total of nearly 100000 or
2 per cent on the stock; increasing
the present net earnings to over
100000 or 10 per cent. Oh the capt.
tai; 6 per cent. is now paid, the bal
ance going to surplus nd improve
ments.
We recommend the proposed ex-
change at this time, the holders
thereby obtaining long, choice Sc
curity at moderate cost.
The As not exchanged, as above,
will be offered to the public at an
advanced price.

Senator Hill has a Edirect personal in
terest in the New York Legislature that
will be elected this fall inasmuch as a
part Of the Senate holds over and will
vote for his successor in 1897. That is
the reason probably that his organs are
telling the voters that they should sacrifice
anything to elect Democratic legislative
candidates. Hill is not an entirely un-
selfish patriot.

judge Gaynor Of Brooklyn has just
made statement of the reasons why he
did not consent to accept the Democratic
nomination for Governor last fall, and it
is only fair to say that they are very
creditable ones. His reasons were that the
Democrats would not assent to his con-
ditions which were that the independent
Democrats Of Brooklyn should be admit
ted to the convention and that Demo-
cat should be nominated for Mayor of
New York whose reputation was a guar
antee that Tammany rule should tcome to
an end, were not assented to. Judge
Gaynor has been saying many things the
past year that have somewhat clouded the
good opinion the people formed of him
when he was fighting the McKane gang
at Grayesend, and it is pleasant to have
something to offset them.

they are contraband articles of COM

After being deprived of the joys of an

cast about for substitute and discov-

to believe it, that they can build ships
