"If at lirst you don't succeed, tiy^ try again."
This is a motto that Jobn IKrcber, of the Rockville Centre Police Deparit uicnt, has luliowed tor years and years, be doesn't hnow how many. He practices it in his every day life and as a policeman. Wben be found a man asleep in Front street wtM> refus¬ ed lo awaken at bis call, be put It in. to practice, Jerhaps for tbe forty elev¬ enth time this year.
Tbe man lay sprawled on tbe aide, walk wben Klrcber first saw bim.
"Get up there," urged tbe officer, ¦'Come on now. No fooling. Ml take yyu in If you don't."
But tbere was ao response, and K'.r- cber, who under ordinary conditions id one of the mildeEt men in RockviUe Centre, became annoyed, then aggra. vated. He ttiok out Ua club and tap¬ ped tbe sleeper bard enough so that tbe blow resounded. Tben he waited.
There was uo movement on tbe psrt of the man on the ground and tbe pt- trolman, wbite with anger, again used his club. This time he hit blm on tl.e leg and again the echo came back from the railroiid station Ju«t acrosa the Htreet. I It was in .sheer desperation thai fvircher underlooit to raise the Ogure from the ground, faring, then that the man had been injured. He shook the 'Igure roughly and then tapped Uw Kole of bis 1ft shoe again with .same effect.
When he flnally got the man up it waf> learned tbat be was Joseph Smith lorinrly of Freeport, who was unfor¬ tunate several years ago to lose his leg in an accident. In the place of ii MP had beon waring a wooden mera- YhtT. And it was ipon this that Kir- cher had been tapping.
Sn ith was sent cn his way.

Ay^d Coloied Man Blames Neighbors '.->r Driving Him Out of Busineiss " They have driven me out of tht; •icavcnser buslneas, but they can't (lii\c me out of Centre avenue, bf^- caiisf I won't KO. I have got a new ;ijb wilh a wholesale market and II' liHVA- tnough to keep up the paymen'?- on ,ny property."
'Jhus speaks Deacon William Wiley, liilliii of the Shiloh Baptist Church of Uockville Centre and one of the most Iirominent members of the colored col¬ ony ol that village. And he mears wlmt he says. He has been forced to i.ive up a business in which he hati f .irntd a llvUhood for years, as a re- suit of the protests of neighbors who ii!ije<.ted to the storage of his vragon? in (ho rear ot his property.
According to tbe colored man, who i.s well and favorably knokn in Rock¬ ville Centre, his troubles began when he purchased a piece of propf-rty on (entrt avenue some six months ago and moved his family there. His com¬ ing v.as a source of annoyance lo tho.se who lived near him. There wiMc complaints almost as soon as he iix-k posses&lon of his bouse, hiost ol thum arising from the fact that bi<i vagons, admlteedly ill smelling, were P.,;uriitlvly kept under the yery win¬ dows of those who lived near him.
Wiley conibatted the protests in the first mstance and tben made hasty ar- tangements for the storage of bis boi' s(8 .ind wagons at a place tbat was .emoved from the residential ?ectioa of <lie village. He continued as a sea '•eu!;».r, however, and would still be in that business were it not for the fact that bis license has been revoked by Dr. A. D. Jaques, Healtb Off'cer oi (he village.
But this was not all of Wiley's trou¬ ble. Heaven no. At tbe time whtn things were hottest for bim, a chattel morti^age on which tbere remainol but H small amount to pay, wa^ fore¬ closed by the mortgagee and hs found hi.*>^H>-lf facing a drastic sltuatinU.
"I have been a victim of elrcuD!- iftiices and a conspiracy;" >aaid Mr Wiley during his time of trouble, "but i am coming out of it all right. I have bean forced to go to Manhattan for employment."
*^ho t,ita at tbe nat topped desk in the ligbt-rear of tbe oounerdal office of the New York Telephone ompany on Grove atreet, got busy. His com¬ petent office staff bad given up their pbonos to the men who had to guags their calls by editions.
Hyder is a man of action. He ar¬ ranged to accomodate tl*e "boys" and lefoie tbe really "big stuff" camt along bad aome ten or twelve extra phonet. in the office. And thebe wei\- uaed until the "bunch" went away.
That tbey appreciated the effort ii' llydti Is best shown by the accom. paoying letter wbich was .^e^t io liTookJyi^ at the close of the story, it J.^ addressed t/^ H. V.". Drake, D.ivislon SupeiintciflSfet. "Dear Mr> Brake:
