In the discussion that followed the
reading of Mr.. Hazards proposition 1t
was brought forth that the contemplated
changes and additions to the buildings
to make a first-clas+; plant for manufac-
turing shoes would cost about Sll,GH0. fig
uring on Il basis of extreme expense in
everything Mr. Hazard said this figure
might he reduced by hundreds and per-
haps by Il few thousands of dollars. He
said :hat his idea was to employ about
200 hands al the beginning and increase to
800 as soon as possible.
The matter naturally calls FOR much de-
liberation. IL was referred to the execu-
tive committee, which will meet ii }

ly by members OF literary, educational
and phiianthropic clubs of Gardiner.
Randolph and Farmingdale, was read
and laid upon the table:
The undersigned residents of Gardi-
ner. Randolph and Farmingdale being
convinced that lottery y-contests and
other indirect methods Of raising mon
ey are not only positive infringe
ment of the laws Of the State but are
grave menace to the morals and well
fare of our community do hereby
earnestly petition your honorable
board to discountenance them in the
future. and by so doing to use your
great influence in promoting the moral
as we'll as the material interests of
our city.
The great matter under conSidera-
ton was presented by II. p. Hazard
in the following communication:

privilege of renewing for five years moro
under the same terms. The terms to be
that the factory or factories shall be
furnished rent free. and We To be exempt
from taxation. We. in turn. Will agree
to operate the plant during that time. un-
| less we are unable to do so on account
| of labor complcat tions or natural causes
| which would make it impossible to do so.
| This would mean that We would assume
Ill expenses i'll connection with repairs

being that in case of future additions
| they would have to be made under condi-
| tions mutually agreed upon at that time.
We would consider Il suitable factory

tain OF the Gardiner Organiza ton, in

Lieut.. Charles y. HodgdOn in command
and for an tour the spectators We're ell
tertained with gracefully executed evo-
TUTORS thai have never been surpassed
i'll this city. The men showed thor
ough know ledge of the drill work and
what is perhaps more remarkable, car
ried out The movements with as great
precision they do in the familiar sur
rsunuings of the armory.
The success CT the drill reflects great
credit upon the members of the COM
pany in general and especially upon
Lieut.. HOdgdon, who, because Capt.
John j. Mckenna has been seriously i'll
for some time with typhoid fever, has
been Obliged to perfect all arrange
nents for the affair without assistance
from any commissioned officer. Capt.
Mckenn;.S S illness was brought on be-
cause of Overwork, much of which was
done III the interest of the company.
Although disastrous to his health, his
Efforts haze resulted in great good
for the organization. The men know
and appreciate this.
After the drill! an order Of 1G dances
was carried out with much pleasure to
all who were present. Monaghan's or
chestra furnished most excellent music
for ICth the drill and the dance.

flood director and performed his part
in Il most efficient way. He was assist

Surgeons themselves consider a per-
manent cure of piles by surgical oper-
alton as very doubtful, and resort to it
only when the patient has become des-
perate from long continued pain and
agony. But the operation itself is
every bit as excruciating and nerve
racking as the disease. Besides, it is
humiliating and expensive, and rarely
a success.

cure yourself with perfect ease, in your
own home. and for little expense.
Pyramid Pile Cure gives you instant
relief. 1t Immediately heals all sores
and ulcers, reduces congestion and in
fiammation. and takes away all pain,
itching and irritation. Just q little of

applied directly to the parts without in
