MARION E. SPROri.E There was not a dry eye in thc nurse's home of the Nassau Hi-ipt il this morning while the Kev. II. A. I.'i- lis, the Episcopal minister of Mii.ei ;., was conducting the funeral services over the remains of Marion E. Sproule, who was formerly a nurse at the hos¬ pital. Mias Sproule was a martyr tn duty and her death was a source of great grief to the hospital authorities. Sonic weeks ago two children were brought to this institution sufTering from scarlet fever. Miss Sproule was the attendant nurse and became infect¬ ed with the disease. The efTorts of Dr. Cleghorn to save her life were un¬ availing, and yesterday Miss Sproule pasaed away. She was nineteen years of age and a brilliant future as a nurse was assured her. She is survived by a widowed moiher who ia also a nurse. Ihe interment will be at the family plot in Elmont Ct'inelery Wednes¬ day's Times.
News of Miss Sproule's death was received with sadness here in Freeport especially by tho younger people con¬ nected with the school. Miss Sproule was a member of the class of 1910 of Freeport High School and was a pupil nurse at the Hosjiital. The members of her class sent a handsome floral piece to the funeral.

Local Topics
Some of my new readers may not understand why I sometimes refer t.i the Snuth Side Observer, a newspaper in a neighboriig vilhige, in tbe manner that I do. Perhaps the followi:,g arti¬ cle will exiilain the reason for my con¬ tempt for tluit part of the editorial force which is so small or ignora'it ;is to write such an arti jle as the enclosed, whicii appearrd in tbeir last issue:
"The disseiniiuitiii'i ol lies, pure ai.ii simple, is not thc mi:.-ion of the rews- paper, ur tno Ob-erver understaiuls tho ni.uier. ir'or that reason it files an iibjcctioii to mallei' urintcd ovcr the I.eaiiliiie of a p;iper priiiteil in Freeport wliiL'h reads as follows:—"Supervisor ( ox's Chiistnias present I'axes twen¬ ty per cent lower" •The Observer will take hut one example to slmw the du¬ plicity of the newspaper and tho man behind the scene. A piece of property in this town was assessed last year ^'.'50. This year the assessment was rai-^e'l to ¦rl-lnd. The school taxes last >ear on the property were about $12, and this year they wore $16, an in¬ crease of just 3;{ 1-;! per cent. No* why wouldn't it be a good thing for this newspajier and the man behind it t" t' 11 fhe truth occasionally, just for a ci;:ii,K'.'. or if the truth is too str-iiig for them, keeji their mouths shut. Of course being the official paper of the county, compels them to shut their eyes to a good deal that passes under their noses. You can, of course, fool some of the peoplo once in a while, but when the taxpayer sits down, puts his sjiectadcs on hia nose, and comjiares laat vear's tax bill with thc bill of this year, he will liegin to say things, and they will not be at all coiTijiliinentary to Mr. Smith (!ox, and the men who have manipulated the tax budget so that il is higher than last year."
Now isn't this mean, conteni|itiblc'.' They know that Supervisor Cox has nothing to do with school taxes; that these depend entirely upon local condi¬ tions; tliey also know that as J showed my readers six weeks agu the town taxes this year will be 20 per cent low¬ er than they were last year. If they do not cfirrcct this article can you be blamed for thinkinjr that they will tell the truth or falsehood as suits their purpose beat in their atieinpts lo dis¬ credit Supervisor (Jox, and if I have so proven by their own writing is it riglit to believe anything tliey say''
The duties of newspajier rejiorting are not all jileasant ones and for fear fromoone will give the Brooklyn Times' local reporter a calling down he don't doserv, 1 will .say that he was not re- s|ioiisilile for the ridicuhuis heading, "I'lieumonia Prevalent," whicli aji- |)e:ired over one of his articles in Fri¬ day's Times. Tiie article said one man in Freejiort and one from Islip were taken to the hospital suffering from pneumonia, and tho heatling writer sticks on the above cajition. I am not crilici-iing bim because bo [irobably has his hands full, but I ilon't think Taft ought to be blamed for audi a rank thing as that when not guilty.
Au exchange in its Freeport Column says:
"In order to assure suflicient protec¬ tion to business places and homes, an extra patrol was estiiblished by the lo¬ cal police dejiartment during the week jirecediiig Christmas. 'I'hiit no burgla¬ ries are reijorted, shows that the patrol was on tbe job, as ordinarily, at such times, the tendency to crimes by theft is greater than on ordinary occasions."
Our police are "on the job" all the time, but the mere fact of there being no robberies don't prove it; there nev¬ er have been any liere during C'hrist¬ mas week.
Here's a peculiar freak of acoustics. Tne tire whistle Friday morning was so fair.t in t!io village that the liiemeti could not hear the recall on Archer I Street, and firemen slept thru the alarm who would nave awakened if I they could have heard a aingle blast, i while it was distiixtly heard at Hemp- I stead and Bellmore, several miles away.
All   the   firemen love  our   chaplain. Rev.   Charles    Herbert   Scholey.     No lire hapj)ens under Ujo disagreeable cir¬ cumstances for bim to be out with   the boys,   as was evidenced by his   attend¬ ance at the blaze on South Side Ave. la.st j Friday morning at half past three.     It 1 was   cheering to   "the boya"   to   have ! him there too.
