After the business session Congress¬ man Cocks pleasantly entertained those present for nearly an hour with a very interesting description of his recent trip to the Hawaiian Islands and the Philipi)ines.
Counselor Edwards presented to the Board on behalf of Treasurer J. D. Kiefer, a large picture of President Alonzo Foster, wiio is serving his fifth consecutive! term|in oflice. The even¬ ing festivities closed with the service of ice cream and refreshments.
Entertainment was also furnished by a female impersonator, through the courtesy of Preaident Foster.
Must Stop Speeding
The officers intend to enforce the law in Freeport, not only by stopping the dangeroua speeding of motor vehicles, but also of riding bicycles on the side¬ walks. One arrest was made of a man riding his bicycle on the sidewalk Sun¬ day. The officers also captured a num¬ ber of autoists who wore traveling be¬ yond the speed limit.
Officer Raynor, who has charge of the arrests, says that if the Automo¬ bile Association continues to notify autoists, only when the officers were out timing he would arrest any who go through the village faster than fitfeen miles, and if this did not stop the in¬ terferences he would arrest anyone who traveled any faster than the ordi¬ nance allow^e, and that was ten miles an hour.
William Snow, N. L. Carpenter and Frank Murphy were arrested nad fined from |10 to $25 each for speeding.
Drowned at Pt. Lookout
Herbert Carman, the eiE;hteen-year- old son of Mr. and Mrs. Walter Car¬ man, of Lynbrook, and grandson of Carman Langdon of Norwood, was drowned at Pt. Loqj^mit Sunday after¬ noon. ^-'
Carman, with a number of friends, was bathing about 2 o'clock. A large wave struck him when he was only knee deep in the water. The force of the wave threw him over and with one scream the undertow sucked him under and he disappeared.
Friends immediately started to find
I)assed re-transferring various amounts borrowed pending receipt of taxes.
A deed was presented by John J. Randall for certain streets in the vi¬ cinity of Randall Bay which ho is to fi.x in condition suitable to the street committee. Action was deferred till a time could he fixed for this work to be done in.
The Onslow-Moore Comjjany was given permission to connect its pipes ;; on Rose Street with the village water j service at Bayview Avenue.
The applications of C. Braren, | Pearsall Ave.; l^lrnest Edwards, N. Main St; H. A. Cunimings, South Side Ave'."; layman VV. Taft, Lena Ave., and Jay St. and Wilson Terry, Grafhng Place, for water servii'e were granted; those of Robert Mott, Moses Cornelius, Frank Farmlett and .Mordecai K. Post. Grand Ave., were "granted as soon as we secure the necessary material."
The following applications for eTec- tric light were denied, as the streets referred to are private- property: South Shore Yacht Club, Randall Bay; Gillies & Campbell, South Bay View- Avenue; L. T. Waiter, Jr., Rose St., and Clarence A. Edwards, W. Dean St. That of A. B. Cornwell. South Side Ave., was granted.
The matter of opening bids for grad ing streets was laid over until this Friday morning, to which time the meeting adjourned.
Nearly all the evening was taken up in auditing accounts against the vil¬ lage, there being several thousand dol¬ lars worth of claims presented and audited.
Drowned at Woodcleft
The body of Thomas Moore, 21 years old of this village, was found floating in Woodcleft Canal early last Friday mooring by Charles Kaynor, in front «f his bathing pavilion. The . body was found face downward and had been anchored by the hands sticking in the mud. There was a gash across the forehead, indicating the possibility of injury from diving.
Moore left the home of Walter Her¬ bert, lower Main Street, Wednesday afternoon, with the intention of taking a bath. He left his clothes in a house near the dock of the Great South Bay Ferry Company and rode on a trolley car to Raynor's place, where he is supposed to have entered the water. After finding the body, Charles Ray¬ nor towed it to the dock, and William Raynor identified it. Justice George C. Tatem, acting Coroner, was notified, and ordered the body removed to Ful¬ ton's morgue. "Mr. Moore was engaged to be mar¬ ried in June next to Areline Herbert, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Walter Her¬ bert, and was employed by Ross & Randall, lumber dealers.
The ; funeral was held at the chapel in Calvary Cemetery, Br(K)klyn, on Monday, after which he was buried in that cemetery.

After the business session Congress¬ man Cocks pleasantly entertained those present for nearly an hour with a very interesting description of his recent trip to the Hawaiian Islands and the Philipi)ines. Counselor Edwards presented to the Board on behalf of Treasurer J. D. Kiefer, a large picture of President Alonzo Foster, wiio is serving his fifth consecutive! term in oflice. The even¬ ing festivities closed with the service of ice cream and refreshments. Entertainment was also furnished by a female impersonator, through the courtesy of Preaident Foster. Must Stop Speeding The officers intend to enforce the law in Freeport, not only by stopping the dangeroua speeding of motor vehicles, but also of riding bicycles on the side¬ walks. One arrest was made of a man riding his bicycle on the sidewalk Sun¬ day. The officers also captured a num¬ ber of autoists who wore traveling be¬ yond the speed limit. Officer Raynor, who has charge of the arrests, says that if the Automo¬ bile Association continues to notify autoists, only when the officers were out timing he would arrest any who go through the village faster than fitfeen miles, and if this did not stop the in¬ terferences he would arrest anyone who traveled any faster than the ordi¬ nance allow^e, and that was ten miles an hour. William Snow, N. L. Carpenter and Frank Murphy were arrested nad fined from 10 to $25 each for speeding. Drowned at Pt. Lookout Herbert Carman, the eiE;hteen-year- old son of Mr. and Mrs. Walter Car¬ man, of Lynbrook, and grandson of Carman Langdon of Norwood, was drowned at Pt. Loqj^mit Sunday after¬ noon. ^-' Carman, with a number of friends, was bathing about 2 o'clock. A large wave struck him when he was only knee deep in the water. The force of the wave threw him over and with one scream the undertow sucked him under and he disappeared. Friends immediately started to find I)assed re-transferring various amounts borrowed pending receipt of taxes. A deed was presented by John J. Randall for certain streets in the vi¬ cinity of Randall Bay which ho is to fi.x in condition suitable to the street committee. Action was deferred till a time could he fixed for this work to be done in.

Waiter, Jr., Rose St., and Clarence A. Edwards, W. Dean St. That of A. B. Cornwell. South Side Ave., was granted. The matter of opening bids for grad ing streets was laid over until this Friday morning, to which time the meeting adjourned. Nearly all the evening was taken up in auditing accounts against the vil¬ lage, there being several thousand dol¬ lars worth of claims presented and audited. Drowned at Woodcleft The body of Thomas Moore, 21 years old of this village, was found floating in Woodcleft Canal early last Friday mooring by Charles Kaynor, in front «f his bathing pavilion. The . body was found face downward and had been anchored by the hands sticking in the mud. There was a gash across the forehead, indicating the possibility of injury from diving. Moore left the home of Walter Her¬ bert, lower Main Street, Wednesday afternoon, with the intention of taking a bath. He left his clothes in a house near the dock of the Great South Bay Ferry Company and rode on a trolley car to Raynor's place, where he is supposed to have entered the water. After finding the body, Charles Ray¬ nor towed it to the dock, and William Raynor identified it. Justice George C. Tatem, acting Coroner, was notified, and ordered the body removed to Ful¬ ton's morgue. "Mr. Moore was engaged to be mar¬ ried in June next to Areline Herbert, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Walter Her¬ bert, and was employed by Ross & Randall, lumber dealers.
