Electric Rates To Be
Reduced
Conowingo Power Company
Files New Schedule

The Conowingo Power Company
on May l, filed with the Public Ser
vice Commission of Maryland new
uniform electric rats for both resi-
Dental and retail service, which will
result in a reduction in revenue to
the Company of more than $4,000
annually. The new schedule be-
comes effective June /.
This follows revision, which be-
came effective April 6, reducing the
minimum bill requirements for rural
customers requiring long line ex-
tensions.
Aside from the reduction in
revenue to the Company, the new
tariff establishes new uniform rates
for residential and general retail
service to its service area in both
Cecil and Hartford Counties.
The change affecting the greatest
number of customers, and making up
the largest portion of the reduction,
ia in the domestic service classifica-
ton. The new uniform rate for
this class of service is as follows:
&c kw-hr. for any part of the
first 80 kw-hr
4c kw-hr. next so kw-hr.
&c kw-hr. next AS kw-hr
2hc kw-hr. for the excess
over 125 kw-hr.
Minimum bills for residential SER
vice in both Cecil and Hartford Coun-
ties are made uniform at 81 per
month.
The new residence rate will make
1t possible for customers to enjoy a
greater utilization of electric service
at reduced cost through the medium
of ranges, refrigerators, water heat
ers, ironers, and numerous other
modern labor-saving electric devices
A new uniform rate for general
Eight and power service has also
been filed for the retail customers
other than residential.
The former rates for retail power
service and farm service in Hartford
County, and the former general SER
vice rate in Cecil County have been
continued in the new tariff but are
restricted to existing customers who
may elect to continue under the old
tariff.
The net rates for service will be
contingent upon prompt payment
and a charge of per cent, but not
less than 15c, will be added to bills
not paid within the time specified for
payment of the net amount.

SEXTON TAKES LIFE

Presbyterian church and the adj
joining cemetery, ended his life on
Tuesday evening, by hanging himself
from the limb of a tree in the ceme-
tery Mr.. Coulson had been in poor
health for months past, and it is be-
lieved this prompted the rash act.
The body was discovered about
1880 in the evening by William
Berry, colored, who had been asked
by Mrs. Coulson to go in search of
her husband when he failed to return
to the house after leaving for the
close-by cemetery when he had eaten
his supper. Rev. A. H. Hibshman,
minister of the church, took the body
iown and called a physician, but life
was extinct.
Mr.. Coulson had been faithful to
his duties as sexton at the church
and cemetery in all his eighteen
years of service, and was held in
esteem.
He was the son of the late VIM. p.
and Anna Nickle Coulson, was born
and spent his entire life at West
Nottingham. He was 68 years of
age.
Surviving are four children by a
former marriage, his second wife and
five children. Also two sisters, Mrs.
R. F. Pierce, of Colora, and Mrs.
Street Riley, of Porters Bridge.
Funeral services will be held Fri
