Lew Dockstaders Homily on the Use
 and Abuse of Food.
 Brandishing a knife and fork in the air in the restaurant at the Hotel Heu- blein last evening, Lew Dockstader said that those weapons were the cause of more deaths in this country than poor liquor. T believe in eating very little" he said as he selected two brook trout from platter and placed them on his plate, flor the great trouble with the American people is that they eat too much"
 Then he helped himself generously to some thin slices of bacon that f1anked the fish. T find that I can do much better work on short rations,' he said, reaching for a dish of grilled potatoes, for when eat heartily I find it difficult to make much heacway in my particu- lar line
 The minstrel stopped talking long enough to order a portion of bouche of sweetbreads Bechamel, and then said that he believed that the plainest kind of food was the best.
 By this time the brook trout, the po- tatoes, etc, had disappeared and Dock stader advocated the vegetarian diet with two meals day, He said that owing to his extreme views he would decline dessert and would have to be satisfied with pot of cnffee, some gar ganzola cheese and cigar MT. Dock stader was shown the mysteries of the voting machine in the city hall by A. Dumont before he had his light repast Hartford Courant

I impossible to operate all the lights for l the full year.
 1 From a careful examination of the l statistics of cities throughout the coun- | try of the comparative size and condi- 1 tions of the city of New Haven, your ! committee is of the opinion that the rate fixed in this proposed contract 221a cents per night, or $S2,121a per year, is a fair and reasonable rate. This rate gives the city reduction of S9.12R per | light-the present rate being 25 cents per night, or $91.25.
 The statistics collected and published in 1901 by the state gas and electric commission of Massachusetts, to which all gas and electric light plants both private and municipal, are obliged by law to report, show that the average price per year for electric lights in sev enteen cities, being all the cities of the state of Massachusetts of over 10000 in habitants operating private plants, was $l13,70-the lights burning on the aver age 3,S70 hours per year, and the aver-. age number of lights in use being 4S7
 The average cost per year in twelve municipal plants, as shown by this re- port of the Massachusetts Gas and Electric commission, was $Sf. 40-the lights burning on the average of 2060 hours per year, and the average candle power of the electric lights is 1,200.
 In comparing the cost of electric lighting in different cities the number of hours which the lights are burned each night is very important point. New Haven has an all night, or dusk +a ,-..fi J,,J. hours at sS2.121s per year in the city of New Haven is considerably cheaper than the average cost in the twelve cities of Massachusetts operating mu- nicipal plants at $S1.4 40 per year, burning only 2,O60 hours. At $S2.121a per year under it's schedule of 4,000 hours, the cost per lamp per hour in New Haven will be 2053 cents, and the candle pow CT for one cent a much better showing than the average of the Massachusetts cities, in both the private and municipal plants.
 Your committee respectfully recom mends the passage of the accompanying order.
