Protest Against
Color Line
By a i^nanimous vote at a meeting ^hen the matter was thoroaghly dis¬ cussed, the colored people of Freeport, especially in the Bennington Park sec¬ tion, have raised a protest against a recommendation of the special school committee which advocates a separate school for the negro children of the village. It is the claim of the negroes tbat tbe measure strikes at the very elements of American citizenship and is contrary to tbe Constitution of the United SUtes.
With various otber suggestions   and recommendations      this     provisional School Committee,   of which   Rev. D. A. Jordan was chairman,    included   in its report to a special meeting  of the I district,   as   noted   in   this  paper,   a [resolution   drnwinc:   the   ccflor     line. iTbis gruui) o, J.likens v.crc  appointed by Hir>m R. Smith,   who was  chair- I man  of a special   school   meeting   at I which several propositions to build ad ditional schoois in Freeport were lo3t. Its purpose   was to make  a  thorough investigation of school conditions   and to report to  the   people   at  a  future I meeting with recommendations for ne¬ cessary improvementa. t    It is against that portion of the com¬ mittee's report which deals   with   the establishment  of a negro  school   that the protest is made.    The meeting was held in the Bethel A. M   E. Church on Henry  Street on Tuesday  evening  of last   week, in charge of Rev. S. H. V. Gumbs, the paslor.
In a long address the preacher urged his people to make a stand against what he believes is a discrimination against the black race by the whites. A. S. Brown, who followed the pas¬ tor to the platform, explained that the idea of a separate school system had been attempted in Jamaica and Hunt ington without success and advised tfaat a committee be appointed from the meeting to take the protest before the Board of Education. The senti¬ ments of Pastor Gumbs and Mr. Brown was endorsed by Peter Johnson, a ver¬ satile colored man.
' Charles Boynton looked upon the matter of a separate school from a broader view point, emphasizing tbe need of to educational system that in

Moore and Carrillo
Win Fame
Victor Move and Leo Carrillo added to their laurels of renown this week, according to the following items in the Brooklyn Eagle: MOORE IN FIGHT WITH SHARK. Victor Moore, who is summering in Freeport, had an exciting fight with an 80 pound sand shark Saturday after¬ noon, near the anchorage in Randall's Bay. Moore had been out fishing and when he started for home he threw some pieces of food from his boat, and he noticed the shark grab them. All the way home he threw some little fish over the side of the boat and the shark followed behind, devouring all that were thrown over. When Moore reached the anchorage, he decided to have some fun with the fish. He bait¬ ed a large hook with a mossbunker and threw jt. over. The shark greedily grabbed the smaller fish and the fight was on. It was nearly a half hour after the small fish. was thrown over that the shark tired and was drawn in.
CARRILLO RESCUES
DROWNING MAN. The cry of "help" from a man floundering in Sportsmen's Canal, off Gere's beach, startled nearly 800 bath¬ ers there Sanday aftemoon and brought Leo Carrillo, a member of .Freeport's actor colony and a champion swimmer, from his bath house. The man, Ches¬ ter Smith of Hempstead, was appar¬ ently being dragged beneath the sur¬ face. Carrillo soon reached the stragg¬ ling Smith. He was completely ex¬ hausted. "Don't bother with me now," he said, gasping. "Get the man under me. He's got a grip on nie." Tben while the man on the sur¬ face paddled to keep himself afloat, the actor life saver went down for the aecond man. Carrillo seised the sec* ond man and started ashore. Both were landed Mfely, bot it was necea¬ sary to apply fint aid to restore the man who bad sink. He was uncon¬ scious when brought ashore.

James J. Corbett, at one time the champion prizefighter of the world, gave an interesting talk on some of his experiences while he was travel¬ ing, showing the comic side of his travels. Mr. Corbett has a rich Irish dialect, and kept his audience in con¬ tinual laughter.
Possibly the most popular lumbers on the program were those of Fred A. Stone, of Montgomery & Stonp, and Victor Moore and Leo Carrillo in a "Bit of Boating," as these gentlemen were better known to the audience.
Mr. Stone gave his usual exhibition of contortion work, and a splendid ex¬ hibition in the use df the lasso, which could not be   improved   upon   by  any
ence. The play by Moore and Carrillo was written and produced especially for this occasion. These two gentle¬ men were supposed to be out in the bay in a motor boat, "The Never Went" and worked hard to get it go¬ ing, but were unable to do so, and Catholic Church of Our Holy Redeemer i«^«'"'"e8olving   to sell   the   boat   to

The following item was left with me on Tuesday and at firsi' I objected to publishing it, having no desire to "knock" any other village in this line. A fireman's life is a hard one without ng knocked from within. The writer, however, said he did not desire so much to knock our neighbors as he wanted to show those who criticized us that we knew something more about firefighting in Freeport than in other places of the same size. Here is his article:
To Editor: Dear Sir:—
Whiie waiting for a trolley in Hemp¬ stead about 5 p m. on July 11, the Hempstead fire alarm sounded for a fire which was in the rear of Washing¬ ton and Fulton Streets, in a barn.
