Otir local aci\ool teaches all of the grades necessary to foil eqaipment fsr High School entrance. There has been some doobt in the minds of some of oor citizens aboot this in the past, noticing the lack of local school.grado- •tes and seeing scholars going to Free- port daily who are not in the High School thera but taking Grammar school. subjects. Thoae who attend school in Freeport from Merrick but are not in the High School are com¬ pelled to pay toition. The State pro¬ vides for the High School training in Freeport bot doe* not Grammar School because this latter training is sopposed to be provided locally. Full-fledged scholars for High School entrance should be prepared at Merrick. The local school authorities probably thought to bring this about when they suggested to the recent school meeting tbe securing of a third teacher for our
achool.    Anyhow, aome of us look   for.

Daniel Combs of Freeport, acting as guardian ad litem for his daughter, Addie W. Combs, recovered a verdict of $3,250 last Wedneaday from Mrs. Lew Hearn, who is known in the the¬ atrical world, as "Bonita."

Charles Mohrmann is a baker and for vears has sni)plied the families of Wantagh with provender. Henry UltHch is a prosperous property owner who owns among his realty holdings the store iu which Mohrmann conducted his bakery. The two men have had some misuudorstanding and a bitterness is said to exist between them. Owner Ulti-r.h obiaiueil a diMpossess warrant and through Constable Thonuis Murray of FreeiK)rt arranged to serve it oi^athe baker.
Mohrmann, while Ultsch was getting his warrant iu Fret^port, traveled to thai same village aud inserted an "ad" in the South Side Messenger, a local week¬ ly paper there.
Decorating the advertising page of the jKiiHjr was this ad:
"Baker wanted—At Molirmann's bak¬ ery, Wantagh, L. I. Must bring boots, eight iijches water in the oellar. Charles Mohrmann, Wantagh, L. I."
People in Freeport and Wantagh were reading the Messenger about the time that Constable Murray was in this village serving the dispossess warrant on Mohrmann. When the baker dis¬ covered that Ultsch ha<l "got one over" on him, he became enraged aud told Murray, aud a companion, Harry Drink- water, that he would refuse to accept the warrant. He also threatened vio¬ lence to anyone who tried to dispossess him, it is reported.
Drinkwater started to walk into the store. He retreated when he saw Mohr¬ mann advance.
"What's this tomfoolery? Stop this!" commanded Murray aa he approached the threshold of the store. Monrmaun, placed bis hand on his hip pocket and appeared to puU a revolver. Drink¬ water grabbed the baker from beliind and Murray drew his revolver away from him.
Taking the baker to Freeport, Con¬ stable Murray preferred a charge of car¬ rying conceale<l weapons and attempted assault ou an officer against Mohrmann. He was arraigiied before Justice of the Peace Norton in Freeport Saturday and fined HO.—Eagle.
