Dr. John Hall, as chairman of the Church Exten
aiou Committee, presented a report disapprovingthe
site recently purchaaed by the Mow-York Church,
at Beveuth-ave. and One-Hundred-and-tsv(-nts -
eighth-at. After the report had been accepted a
?list ussion followed upon ita adoption which lasted
nearly two beard Dr. Hall aaid that the -.ominit
t.te h; (1 decided, on a compariaon of views, that some
other site should be selected. Dr. Paxton said that
Mr. Page should show good reasons why he had
purchasi-d the site contrary to the judgment
ti the committee. Mr. Page gave in detail
the rimnmotannna attending the removal
fl" i Jua church iu Honaton-st. to the
building in West Elevent.h-et., the recent bale

n Harlem. Dr. Hall defended the action of the

THE QUESTION OF REDUCING THEM.
I WUMl THAT MR. si t'.ANAllAN LAlTiIIKP AT?
IU KEMOVAI. OF THK KI.EVATKD STATION.
The Bridge Trustees held their February meeting
restcrday. thirteen being present. The executive
?ommittee's recommendation that a fourth switeh
ug eugine bc purchased was adopted, treasurer
A lite said that the income from the railway was
ibout S.110 a day less than in tho summer,
tie thought the tolls were too high and
uovedthe appointment of a committee of hve to
lousider the question of vehicle to la. Mr. Van
<ci.aick moved that the tolls for vehicles be reduced
sne-half, but the motion was withdrawn on Mr.
-.tranahan's objection.
Mr. Marshall wanted to know how many passen
?ers could now he carried, and .superintendent
Mart in said it.SOO an hour one way. No more could
iie carried until there was more room to
iwitch cars at the New-York end. If
he structure could be ertended over Chatham
it., thev could run four cars instead of tsvo, and
iouhlo* the capacity of tho Bridge. Mr. Marshall
mid that it waa a shame tbat toll-gates hindered
ho free crossing of the Bridge. There waa a
lill before the Legislature, he added, to have
he footway free; it passed hotli houses,
md then it was stolen. There were two institu
ions interested in the theft. "You needn't laugh,"
laid Mr. Marshall, looking at the quizzical smile on
he bland countenance of J. S. T. Stranahau. who
s a director of tho Union Ferry Company ; "you
Medal laugh. I say then' were two institutions
atereoted in that theft, and they were tho City of
s'ew-York and the Union Ferry Company.'' Mr.
.trauuhan's snloe shook with laughter as if this
vere a huge Joke. Mr. Marshall further said that
he Budge would not be Bnlahed until a slice was
aken off Washington-st... Brooklyn, and thc Bridge
ars ran to the City Hall, and until New-York gave
i propel terminus. Now all the tolls bhould bo re
proni
ii ct a.
I
Mr. Wit te said that a groat many more passen
rers rode to New-York from Brooklyn than rode the
Hberwav; one cause of this was that the Brook
yn City Railroad Company did not start, enough
?ars from the Bridge.
Mr. Stranahau said that the whole question
if tolls on the Bridge should be better
Hiderstood. There wen* many large interests
;o be affected bv the question, and the whole length
md breadth of it should be laid before the trustees
tor judicious action.
An amendment to include Hie whole ?abject of
oils was made to Mr. Witte's motion for a coiu
nitteeof five, and it was then adopted.
Mayor Low asked regarding the progress of the
pail to remove the Elevated Railsvay station in
hatham st., and President Kingsley said that uo
ice of trial had been served, and the caae would
probably coane ap a week from to-day. The
tlavor suggested that it wonld bea long time before
he matter could be determined, and that arran ge
uents might be made to do tbe awitching without
?xten.liiig the Bridge structure over Chatham st.
dr. Kingsley said that the whole design and ron
itrnctionOlthe station building would have to be
ihanged to allow of this.
In regard to to the report of the expert ae
*ountants, Showing discrepancies of be?
tween 98,000 and 19,000 in the books
-ince the work on tue Bridge began, Mr,
Kingsley said that it was shown thal the Bodwell
Granite Company had been overpaid 97,140. He
tad written io tbe coan pony and their reply set
[orth that .hey had some claims again t the
trustees and desired to submit the whole matter to
irbitrntion. lt was voted that Mayors Edson and
.ow select the arbitrator for the trustee*!.
I'ho Cape Ann Granite Company had
leen bf a clerical error oven-ani 91,000
md they had not replied to a letter informing IIipiu
il the facts. It ssas decided to take legal pfOeCCd
nf;s against the company lo recover the money.
Six additional cars for the Bridge are to be

HOW TO MAKE MONEY.
o' Intel Hgruc* and InfeRtlty are the first olmr.ent.s of ane
re-a; imt these alone will not puah a ftttg man to the
trout. To stimulate, energy and lntenalfy application, a
well defined purpo.e ls necessary. It was not by walting
for something to turn up that Cyrus McCormick coined
hia ninia Into grain-reapers, and from being a poor boy
became the |K.*sr*sor of ten mllllou dollars, or by follow?
ing a beaten track, that Samuel Fltcher made fame and
wealth out of a medical prescription. Oold bidden lu the
California Herrns waa usoleas. iso mere merit not backed
by energy aud application ls fruitless. By ths utilization
of labor-arising machinery we produoe more, and each
Individual la enabled to cousuiua more of other's lalior
than wa* poaslble with our fathers. In 18.10 Seth
liioiiias enid wooden clocks for foity dollars apiece, al
which price but few families could afford a clock; now
his finn furnish a. superior metul clock for ds-e dollars,
and from the lncreused number sold larder profits are
realized. Sewing machines so much bettered the con?
dition of women that they havo been enabled to pay the
proprietors fifty million dollars profits. Colonel Colt
picked up au iib,twinned breech-loading gnu, but with lt
ho decided the battles of Holferliio, Solan and Gettys?
burg, and Anally, clothed in Velvet robes fastened with
diamond button*, he stood before kings. Doctor
Pitcher's simple prescription, now so familiar to tbe
world under tbe name of Cnatnria, was only thc result
of a coiiacicntloiif. purpo.se, and being what lt purported
to bc, has been adopted by a majority of Intelliireat
mot hers throughout the world, and turned another
golden stream into svorthy hands.
The starting point of Or. Pitcher's success was ac?
cident; the fruition, sagacity. Duriug the epidemic of
Cholera infinitum, which prevailed with snob fatality in
the Eastern Staten tai 1880, Bamuel Pitcher came Into
prominence as " Thc Children's Doctor. " lils success In
saving tho lls-es of children, and In treating tln-lr numer?
ous complaints, Induced him to formulate a proscription
for general usc, which soon was sent for from great dis
hMBBB. iT.it n UM ken Doctor saw his opportunity.
Putting aside bia saddlc-bng*, bc compounded (astoria
with prent cir.', and anon did a large business. His ket?
tles gave way to cauldrons, and Bahaaqnaotljr Ma caul
drona svere supplanted by tho Immense ntc.nn vat* now
to be seen letha Laboratory opposite St. Paul-* Church?
yard In the City of New-York.
Doctor Pitcher intelligently columned bis own interests
with Ihaaa ?f his patron^,tn making a pun', BBlJnlnaa and
aapattor preparation, umbi aa Btraeaaataaeaa woald he
permit turipa, ii. enved or inferior tngradteata tu ba aaai

agent wa*sent throu/h parts of Asia and Africa, to se?
lect, gather nnd teach the natives how to cure senna.
Being opi ost-d to secret remedies, and particularly to Ibe
lue of minerals and opiates, Dr. Pitcher boldly published
-?_??*
Natives Gathering Herbs for Caatorta.
his formula broadcast, thus challenging the attention of
physicians everywhere. This was such an innovation
upon the BCacOttOBora who Battered thatsve should bo
c.intent with Latin prescriptions, and of empirics "who
were enabled to impose upon a credulous public extrava?
gant statement* nf the mysterious power of their reme?
dies, that lt gave rise to much vituperative criticism.
But this citiiiiioti sense course of informing aa (tut what
we were giving our children, appealed so directly to In?
telligence, that lt, brought advrtiiccl pin Meian* upon the
side of i>l.iln dealing, many of whom .began regularly to
prescribe ('astoria In their practice.
At Pharmaceutical Conventions assembled In Boston,
New-York, London and elsewhere, Dr. Pitcher eaua.-.l hi*
preparation to bo analyzed, and its therapeutic proper
tic, to ba dteeoaaad. Thus were Ita merit* indorsed, and
the reports published In medical Journals. Each of these
things added to tbe rapidly Increasing multitude of con?
sumers, until at the present time, when the second gen?
eration of moth, v* ure using Ciintoria, and showing their
coiifl.l.nce In lt, tho aggregate ot tts sale ls almost In?
credible. '' Thc sales last year," said the manager, "were
about three minion bottles," The*e would, If placed end
