Xlis wheel was out of order, and that is why lie wished to hire one.

He added that he was boarding over at Vandervoorts. Doc let him have a wheel a $50 Remington, and noither he nor the wheel has been seen since. As soon as he had gone Mr. Clark sent his boy lover to bis allogtd boarding place, but he was not known there, and Doc was at once convinced that he had beeu sold. L.

Clerk Robert Seabury, of the Queens County Board of Supervisors, began last week his twenty-second year in that office. He has been a painstaking and faithful servant of the county, and it was only proper that as the duties of his position increased the compensation should be made to keep pace with that Increase. The Supervisors, therefore, acted properly in adding a few hundreds of dollars to the yearly compensation. a a a In the Long IslaDd churches yesterday there was much to please the eye and the ear, not especially in the way of new headgear and comments thereon, hut in the beautiful flowers and plants which nature has produced, and in some of the best music that is ever heard in sacred edifices. This catering to the physical sssenses did not in the least interfere with interest; in fact, as one clergyman remarked, it would he much better if Easter came oftener in the year.

The Queens County Taxpayers Non Partisan Association has been giving con aiderable attention to legislation affecting Queens 'County during ihe last two months, but now that the Legislature is soon to adjourn they may he expected to turn their batteries toward the county government. Many reforms will he rec ommended In such offices over which the Board of Supervisors has control, it is expected, and a vigorous fight especially waged against the fee system. The Queens County Horse Show Association presents an inviting prize list ifor Its first annual show, to he given on the fair grounds at Mineola next The fact that Ihe net proceeds lof this show are to be given to that most worthy charity, the Nassau Hospital, should interest all citizens in tin affair, whether they he horso fanciers or not. The officers of the association are men of vast experience, and are beuding all their energies toward making the coming show a big financial success. a a Many Long Island youngsters have taken the advice given in the Times last week, and prepared bunches of the popular trailing arbutus for sale at the railroad stations and other places in the Long.

Island villages. These flowers are often sent to distant parts of the country, and in this way the impression that Long Island is a charming place, which is certainly true, has gone abroad. The arbutus does its share each year toward proving the statement that Long Idand is the garden spot of the world. The other day the Brooklyn Times took occasion to remark that while it would a wise thing to introduce a mall system by trolley between Brooklyn and Elmhurst Tost Offices, ns had already been announced, it would lx a great mistake to discard the service performed via the Long Island Railroad between Newtown station and Long Island City, by which route the New York city mail had been carried. It is, therefore, with much satisfaction that the Times an- Bounces to-day that the Post Offi.v has rescinded its former order and hereafter the mails will he carried to and from the Elmhurst Post Office by both routes.

Theres nothing loo good for Long Island. The Troy Tress has this to say of the recent marriage of young Nlu-pard and his Long Island bride The New York papers an N' York society have been making a good deal of because joung LIloU I-. Shepard married a beautiful young Uo three or four years older than ldmse As a matter of fact, the bride Is an ac om-llihed young woman, whose ameoedents ore fully as estimable, an I whose fami Is Just as old, If not so wealthy, as that of Che young man in the case. You cannot find, on the east end of Long island a man, woman child, who, justly can litter a word of reproach agalnsi old Cap: Wiggins, of Greenport, wheie hi-father and grandfather and great-grandfather lived before him. If it 8 blood that young Shepards family are after where can they find any beater ihan that which courses through the veins of the young woman, who was formerly Es.e Wiggins 7 In the event of the Supervisors extending the south turnpike as a county road, in accordance with the petition of residents of the town of Oyster Bay, there will be a direct macadam road through Queens County to the dividing lino.

It would be a good thing, and a move that could not fail of appreciation by the public, if the Supervisors of Suffolk or the town authorities of Babylon should con-. tinue the improvement to Bay Shore, or even farther east. No one will deny that it would improve property and attract more people to Babylon, Bay Shore and the Intervening villages. Such a project Is certainly worthy of serious consideration. Amateur Play Glen Cove.

ISLIP, Ap-rU 19. Tlie villa of Islip hee been pioiniged Into' a Raines law controversy by the opening of a hotel on th Hum property l.y William S.

Johnson has kept a restaurant on rtho' Miain street for some time, but has1 long a tieslire to go 'into th hol'al business and keep a bar. Ia31p was for many years a temperaroo town, burt several years ago a Board of, Excise was eleoted whloh granted a It-i cenoeno (he Orowoo Hioaei.of which Fran1 Buchaoek Is proprietor. When the Raines law came into foroo there were othens who wished to go lnJo the business, but tine temperance people had looked over the field and wero well satisfied that there was no building avahabto for hotel purposes. Those which might answer the purpose were surrounded by ieopJe who would on the 200-foot limit ground and they felt safe In their position. Some time ago It wais noised about that Alfred Dufour, who runs a saloon near the railroad had purchased a building on 'tihe opposite side of the street from the Onowoc Hotel and wo-uUd open1 a hotel.

It was said that he 'had arranged to get the consent of property owners within the prescribed limit and that all objections on that ground would be done away with. Johnson, tho restaurant man, heard of this and Ihe realized that Ills chances of getting a location would be lessened if 'Dufour opened a hotel. He devised a plan and quietly put it lnlto The Hurst property ad-JoLns the Dufour purchase on the east and he decided to buy It. The transfer was made and Johnson began to make preparations to get a license. He anticipated no trouble from Dufour for the reason that the house was not strlctiy a privato dwelling, for one room In Its was used as a shoo shop.

Tho next nearest house, which Is owned by John H. Vail, includes an apartment In wiuen tailoring is done, which fact exempts it from the private residence clause in the law. When the distance to the house of Dr. Hulsey, across the street, was measured it was found that it was within the limit of 200 feet and as the doctor would not sign a consent to the oiening of the hotel, Johnson was up against a snag. He went to Patc'hogue to consult counsel.

He selected Counselor A. H. Carman and Plated the ease to him. Mr. Carman advised that the fron't dioorp of the house be boarded up and that the doors be placed in the rear.

This would make the distance to the hotel more than 200 feet from The house across the street, and sidetrack oil objections. Johnson followed the advice of his counsel and made application for a license. It was Issued and before the people fully realized It a hotel" sign wag boosted up over the pzza of the honored ofld Iwmesteud of the Hunt family and rthe ball opened. The temperance people could not be persuaded that the house was 200 feet distant from that of Dr. Halsey and Lho doctor insisted that he hud not given consent, but on the other hand was bp-posed to rthe opening of the place.

A tape measure was produced. It was a brand-new one which could not be Inaccurate. and several of rthe temperance leaders got together one moonlight night and measured the distance. They measured only to the building and found the distance to be 194 feet. Then was waa declared upon Johnson.

He was rtold that he would be in Jaifl within ten lay9 unless he emptied out his Whiskey bottles and closed the place at once. Dufour Joined with the temperance people to make it hot for rthe restaurujvt mam In tihe meantime Johnson laughed In his sleeve. He 'tormented hls enemies by saying that the front doors wore only boarded up temporarily and before long they would be decorated wKh gilded larger beer signs and Islip would harts another hotel In full blast. While the building answered the purpose with 'the front entrance on the rear it was not the liking of Johnson and new he has decided to move the building a few feet back so that the front may be opened up in the regular way. The temperance people realize that by doing this Johnson will have the better of them and what they will do now ks a serjous question.

In the morning, no sermon was preached, the pastor taking the opportunity to talk with the people In a manner appropriate to the occasion.
