A regular meeting of the village Board of Trustees is td be lield this evening at the village ottice.
We stated the fire at Mr. Hanscom's on Raynor street last week did no dam¬ age, which was slightly in error as his claim of $52 was paid by the insurance company Thursday.
A break in the mains of the Nassau & SufTolk Lighting Co.'s pipes Ht Hempstead necessitated the shutting off of the gas supply for four hours Saturtlay morning, and the incident stopping of operations re(]uiring gus for lighting, cooking, heating or power.
A. Rell Malcomson, jr., of thia place has received notification Irom the Civil Service Commission of the State that he was one of the successful candi¬ dates in an examination held recently for the position of highway inspector. The salary that goes with the position is $3..')0aday m' mum and $4.50 a day maximum.
Through his ttorncy, R. A. M. Hobbs, George H. Beardsley has com¬ menced action {gainst Thomas J. Hop¬ per, the contractor erecting the new Catholic Church of Ou"- Holy Redeem¬ er, for .125,000. The suit arises from an accident which occurred at the new edilice a short time ago when a scaffold ledger broke and dropped Beardsley about 40 feet to the bottom of a brick pit, and severely injuring him.
It IS claimed that the accident was caused by a piece of board being used as a ledger for the scaffolding and a force of men being ordered on it to rush the work on the interiur.

About three weeks ago Alanson Baldwin, who lived the life of a recluse in the \^'oo^ls between this place and Massapeijua, in a small house, came to Seaford to get provisions and while here was stricken with paralysis. He was removed to the home of a relative where he died.
At the time the house was searched fur personal property.
Since that time no one so far as was known, has been near the place, but it was discovered a few days ago by some parties that were passing through the woods, that his late home had been burned to the ground.
When the hre happened and how it happened nobody seems to know. None of the neighbois remember see ing a fire from the direction of the old place, and the manner in which it was burned is an absolute mystery.
The little house was erected years ago and is claimed by a Frenchman, who with his wife, went to live there. Thev apparently found it very lonely, however, up in the back woods and after living there only a short time left.—-Times.
Two especially good gifts for "her" are suggested in Smith & Bedell's ad¬ vertisement in this issue. Read about them. <

Postmaster Anderson informs us that a large number of thc patrons of the Pos, Otfice, who are now receiving mail by letter carriers, have not placed numbers on their hou«es.
If they desire a continuance of the carrier's service they should comply with this order as soon as possible.
He also wishes us to call your atten¬ tion to the following communication: • Dec. 12, 1910.
United States Post Office, Freeport, N. Y.
By direction of the Post Ofiice De¬ partment the attention of patrons of the post oflice is called to the advant¬ ages of providing facilitiea for the re¬ ceipt of their mail be erecting conven¬ iently accessible Poxes or cutting suita¬ ble slots in their doors. Such aci ion would ena^ile the postmaster to give a prompter and better delivery service with the means at l.is disposal, since the carriers can cover much more ter¬ ritory in leas time if not compelled to wait for an answer to their ring. Pri¬ vate reccptaclea for mail are also a great convenience to the householder, obviating the necessity of responding to the carrier's call at inconvenient moments and permitting the safe de¬ livery of mail in the absence of mem¬ bers of the household. The/alao pre¬ vent the occasional necessity of a car¬ rier's proceeding on his route without delivering mail because of failure to answejr the ring within a reasonable time, and enable him to make deliver¬ ies to patrons living en or near the end of the route at an earlier hour.
It has been shown by actual experi- ; ence that the benefits derived by the patrons of city delivery from the use of such receptacles far outweigh the small expense involved. As this effice is interested in furnishing- the best possible service at the least expense,, your compliance with the foregoing suggestions will be much appreciated. | RespO'tfully. '
