Resenting the Interferance of Healtb ofBcer Or. William H. Rtlncle who cnuaei two policemen to otand at the front door of the Church of the Re¬ deemer, Sunday morning and stopped children from attending mass, the Rev, John L. OTople, pauitor, exhib¬ ited his umbrage by speaking of l'he Incident from tbe pulpit at the var¬ ious mdssed, last Sunday, Father O'Toole referred to the epidemic as It affects Freeport aa exaggerated, in tbat two cases of tnfantllo paralysis brought bei-e from Brooklyn by peo¬ ple wbo b^d Just moved here, bave been reported in a population of 9,000.
"If a real epidemic affected this vil¬ lage we would shut up this cburcb and would turn It Into a hospital," said Father O'Toole. "But In a con¬ dition such as exists to-day, where two cases of infantile paralysis have been reported, it seems very humil¬ iating, not only to me, but to tbe catholic people wbo form a big part of the taxpaying element to bave our children stopped on their way to de¬ votion and sent home.
"On this Sunddy, especially, the Holy Father had designated the day as one on which the children of the faith should receive communion and offer prayed for the cessation of the war in Europe. Yet this is being done in every church In New York city and on I^ong Island. In Free- port alone where two cases of infan¬ tile paralysis have been reported, Is I)olice Interference found necessary. "We have abandoned plans for our carnival. This was done so as not to cause any criticism. We lose about $1,500 by that. I don't Hire to be at odds with the authorities. We shut up our Sunday schools the same as our bretben of other denominations, but we can't stop children from at¬ tending mans. Far be it from me, as a priest, and. pastor, to tell children to remain away from mass. I have been ordained a priest to bring people to ("h'lrrh, not keep them away.
"To me a Catholic mass comes be¬ fore anythlnR else churchly, and it means much to have our little ones hero on Sunday morning.
"Accompanied by their parents and placed under the supervision of a good sister, or a priest or my.self, the children will be removed from any danger. Yet, to-day you will fincf children in all the churches of Brook¬ lyn, at the beachci. In throngs at Coney Island, Luna Park, Steeple¬ chase, I.«ng Beach anfl other place-i. Alone tn Freeport Is it necessary !.¦) have pollcemrn In front of the door to prevent little ones from going to church."
Dr. Runcie assigned the two pollcf- men to guard the door of the Catholic Church. Ho has placed the quaran¬ tine on It as it affects children under Ifi and proposes to enforce that order until the ban has been lifted in the affected regions.

Theodore Roosevelt sat In a box at Carnegie Hall when Mr, Hughes de¬ livered his speech of acceptance and vigorously applauded every telling point.
The Colonel repeatedly arose and bowed in response to tbe cheers for him and tho shouts of "Teddy!" "Ted¬ dy!" "Hurrah for Teddy!", and when the meeting adjourned he made the following statement:
"It is an admirable speech and I' wish to call attention to the following j points: I
"I am particularly pleased with the; exposure of the folly, and worse than i folly, of Mr. Wilson's Mexican policy i and of the way fn which this policy i has brought humiliation to the United States and  d'lsastor  to  Mexico Itself, i
"Moreover, I am very glad of the' straightforward manner in which Mr. i Hughes has shown the ridicule with! which Mr. Wilson has-covered this na-' tion by the manner in which he al- \ lowed foreign powers to gain the lm-! presslon that although he used the | strongest words in diplomacy they i were  not to be taken  seriously. j
Not Words Which Count i
"As Mr. Hughes said. It Is not words but the strength and r>Bolution behind the words which count. As Mr. Hughes pointed out, there Is no doubt that if Mr. Wilson's conduct and ac¬ tion had been such as to make the foreign nations believe that he meant precisely'%hat he said in his 'strict acoountafelllty' there would have been no destruction of American Uvfes by the sinking of the  Lusitanla.
"When Mr. Hughes uses strong words his record shows that they are always backed by strong deeds, and thereforp, in the enormous majority of
cases the Tise^f strong "words ren'Sers It unnecessary ever to have recourse to strong deeds.
"Again, Mr, Hughes speaks In char- 8M;terlstlcally straightforward fash- Ion of the outrages committed on mu¬ nitions plants, and all men, whether citizens of foreign nations or nominal cltlzeirs of our own land, who had in any shape or way abetted or condoned those actions can understand that Mr, Hughes, If President, will protect these domestic American Interests and punish offenders against them with the fearlessneffo .and thoroughness tliat e!;^ showed. In dealing with the powers oT evil at Albany.
Brought   Nation   to   Ignominy.
"Just before coming In to listen to Mr. Hughes' Jusit characterization of Mr. Wilson's failure to protect the lives and property of Americans in Mexico and on the high seas, I hap¬ pened to pick up John Fiske's "Critical Period of American History,'* and was ¦truck by the following two sentences:
" 'A government touches the lowest point of ignominy when It confesses its inability to protect the lives and the property of Its citizens, A gov¬ ernment which has come to this has failed in discharging the primary func¬ tion of government and forthwith ceases to have any reason for exist¬ ing."'
"Mr. Hughes has poi'nted out in his ¦peech with self-restraint, but 'with emphasis, that It Is precisely this primary function which Mr. Wilson's Administration has failed to discharge and that It is precisely this point of Ignominy to which he has reduced the nation over which he Is Presi¬ dent."

Harvey Sratth, whose rendezvous is Freeport. found himself a prisoner in the Freeport ^lice station last Sunday night H«r also heard Judge Clinton Flint Impfse a fine of $10 on him because off sundry « naughty things Harvey hao^done the night be¬ fore when Constfbie Thomas Mur¬ ray was compelletf to arrest him. These trifles did fiot bother Harvey one iota. Twenty minutes after be was fined he feigned illness and went toward the rear cf the building—out into the street   He made his escape.
The trusting Captain Carl Daren- berg was astonished when he learn¬ ed that Harvey had decamped even without so much as a fond goodbye. Carl notified Constable Murray that the "ehall was oudt." WTille under the spell of anger and mortification the fugative returned. He was es¬ corted, not by a policeman, but by Captain John Whaley. The latter's purpose there was to pay Harvey's fine of 110.
Harvey gave as an excuse for bis leave taking that he had grown im¬ patient waiting for Capt. Darenberg to call up some friend.
"I had only one friend who would do me a service of this kind, and since he h'ad no telephone the best and quickest way was to go and get him, " said Smith,
This explanation was satisfactory to the easily pleased Captain and the matter was disposed of right there and then.

Congressman Hicks Urges Through Investiga¬ tion Into Conditions
Although it is asserted from var¬ ious angles that no sharks abound near Freeport, C. E. Swatling whose business is catching fish in the great fishing grounds off Fire Island and surroundiujga dl.?fipated that state¬ ment some-what by displaying two monster sharks that he caught in Zack's Inlet. The sharks swam in from the deep Into the shallow water of the inlet. Here they were bagged in tlie l)ig net. They were evidently having a fine feast on the smaller fishes in the net.
One of the sharks was a true spec¬ imen of the man eating variety. It weighed nearly a quarter ot a ton, The other was about sixty pounds lighter. Thoy were taken into fish¬ ing boats with difficulty and later re- niovod to Frticport, They were even¬ tually sent into a Manhattan market.
Francis M. Hugo, Secretary of State, bas started a vigorous campaign for re-election. His nominating peti¬ tions have gone out to every county in the State and already many hun¬ dred signatures have been obtained for bim. No opposition to hia nomi¬ nation is anticipated at the prima¬ ries and his popularity and record in office should insure a return to his present position for two years more.
It is no mean record that the Secretary of State can boast. To run a large administrative State of¬ flce with business efficiency, to give satisfaction to both people and party and at the same time map out a constructive program for the future needs of an ever increasing depart¬ ment, requires foresight, consumate skill and executive ability of a high order.
The offlce of tbe Secretary of State contains five immense bureaus, as follows: Automobile, Corporation, Election, Laws and Land Bureaus. The first two of these are the larg¬ est of their kind In the world. New York State contains within Its bor¬ ders one-ninth of the licensed auto¬ mobiles of the entire country. Nearly 300,000 cars have been registered with Mr. Hugo's offlce since February 1, 1916, whil the army of licensed chauffeurs approaches the 100,000 ' mark. These record-breaking figures will be eclipsed before the end of the present automobile year. In addition, Mr. Hugo caused a motorcycle law to be placed upon the state books, which will net tbe State the tidy sum of about $75,000 l)efore the year is up. This law, after many vissisi- tudes, was enacted by the last Leg¬ islature and went into effect April 1, 1916. The registration figures. In¬ cluding fees, up to July 1st, are as follows:
Motor vehicles—cars registered, 261,570; chauffeurs, 84,112; fees, 12,199,229,00,
Motorcycles—Cars registered, 19,- 116;   fees, $47,880.50.    -    _
These   facts   and   figures   show "ftH- increase of 30 per cent, in the  busi¬ ness of  the  Automobile  Bureau  over the year 1915, all of which Mr, Hugo has    successfully    managed    without '] adding to the size of his offlce force, i
To handle this work, there have been established five officers at New ; York, Albany, BinRhamton and Odens- ; burg. The Buffalo ofliee is headed , by Gustave C, Miller—an appointee ' of the  present secretary.    Mr.  Miller

In urging immediate action bo said: "I fteel It Is a most important matter and one worthy of your thorough Investi¬ gation. In my district thero are pub¬ lished over 60 weekly novvspaper.", two dailies, besdes oumerniis publi¬ cations of a special ct<a<.i'titor.

these the price of paper Is a most vital matter and every effort should be made to render the burden less arduous.
In the name of the publishers of Long Island, the men,who carry Into the homes of the people, the news of the day, religious teachings, business opportunities and all that tends to advance and enlighten society let me urge that you use every effort to as¬ certain the causes which have brought about this result and then take the necessary steps to correct the evil. On ray part rest assured that I will co-operate with you in every way possible to further this end.

Fast tennis was played on the Bay View tennis courts Sunday. The Bay View club broke through a winner In a match game with a strong team from Murray Hill, The feature of the meet was the downfall of Clyde C. Wallace by C, S. Leonard, the star of the .Murray Hill aggregation. Not that Clyde featured in the light of a hero. It was Clyde's second defeat on the courts in match games In three years and both occured this season. It is apparent that he has lost his stride and doubtless will pick up in his game by next week, when the Glen Cove Tennis team will be enter¬ tained.
Coupled with Will Thompson, Clyde Wallace bowed in the doubles to .Leonard and Robinson, while Jarvis and William Root fell before tbe at¬ tack of Berryman and Payton. This match had to go chree sets before a decision was arrived at. The visit¬ ors took the first, 6-4. The Root bro¬ thers took the second, 7-6 and the Murray Hill players captured the third, «-l.
The summary was:
Singles—C. S. Leonard, M. H., de¬ feated C. C. Wallace, B. V., 6-3, 6-1; J. Root, B. v., defeated W. P. Berry- man, M. H., 10-8, 6-2; H. Beebe, B. v., defeated Payton, M. H, 8-6, 9-7. 6-3; W. Wright, B. V., defeated Orlf- fenburg, M. H.. 6-0, 6-4.
Doubles—Leonard and Robinson, M. H., defeated Wallace and Thomp¬ son, B. v., 6-2, 6-3; Berryman and Payton, M. H., defeated J. and W. Root, 6-2, 2-6, 6-1; W. Wrtght and H. Beebe, B. V., defeated Seymour and Nimmo, M. H., 7-5, 2-6, 6-S; Droudt and Whittaker, B. V., defeated Orlf- fenburg and Martin, M. H., 6-1, 6-2.

stood at the head ot the list in the civil service examination for the posi tion which he now occupies. The Ogdensburg offlce, recently created, acts as convenience for tbe flood of Canadian motorists, while the Bing¬ hamton offlce accommodates the In rush of machines from Pennsylvania and neighboring states.
Much might be aaid about tbe Cor- portatlon Bureau.   Its daily round of business  shows  a  large  gain  In   the number of Industrial and otber mam¬ moth corporations which apply to and receive their charters from the Sec- I retary of State.    Al>out 80 per cent I of tbe country's wealth  is represent- ! ed  In  these  monetary  concerns  that I have come under the Jurisdiction  of the  Empire   State to  seek  the bene¬ fits that flow from the  protection of our  laws.
One of Secretary Hugo's real econo¬ mies consists in the consolidation of the Laws and Election Bureaus. Tbe former had to do with the flling and compiling of the acts of the Legisla¬ ture after they have come from the Governor's offlce where they are orig¬ inally sent for the latter's signature or disapproval. The Election De¬ partment provides the machinery for the primary and general elections, Including tbe printing of the ballots, the return and canvass of the vote after the same bas been polled. The quick eye of Mr. Hugo discovered the fact that the main duties of these two offlces were such as to allow the work to be carried on by one head and one force of clerks. The con¬ solidation immediately took place, with a saving of several thousand dollars   per   annum.
Those who know Mr. Hugo feel that they have met a real friend and efficient public offlcer. No Secretary of State had devoted as much time to his official duties. Business hours cut no figure with him. Often he Is the first one at the offlce and tbe last one to leave the State Department, His door-latch swings open to any who want to enter. The cordial re¬ ception extended to all, lea'ves no doubt that the welcome sign is also on the door-mat emblazoned in large, unmistakable letters. With the news¬ paper boys he Is an especial favorite. They frequent bis offlce at all hours of the day. When news is scarce, he tells them a story or exchanges one with them, whether it be In his own sanctum or on one of his speak¬ ing trips, of whioh he takes many. .The genial secretary Is ever eager for ail "aaecdote; at the same time, he makes a^ gSOA listener and can take, as well as gtv?~T[liforuf3'J02 Ol interest. This magnetism, this savour faire, has won him many a victory in the political game of battle-dore and shuttle cock, it has ceineuled friendship in every county of the Em¬ pire State and made him, in the estimation of his host of admirers, an  ideal   public   servant.

MAUD AT FREEPORT
I>odglng   Tillage   Cops   At   Rockville Centre   Returns   Uome   Safely.
"Maud" made her appearance in Freeport early Saturday morning but disappeared before tbe eventful oc¬ currence was revealed. She re-ap¬ peared at Rockvllle Centre and was compelled to submit to arrest. She resisted everyone who went near her. She chose the middle of the road and balked and sulked at the distant ap¬ proach of even a pedestrian on the sidewalk. Maud is a donkey belong¬ ing to Charles Russell, a pedlar of Valley Stream, She left her stable in Valley Stream. Friday afternoon and wandered off to Hempstead.
In the evening, tired and hungry Maud, like a prodigal daughter re¬ turned homeward. She was encount¬ ered in Freeport by Policeman Gis- sell wbo attempted to nab Maud, but the animal ran away. Gissell notifl¬ ed the Rockvllle Centre police. Offlcer Kerley on a bicycle, headed Maud off and lassoed her. He attempted to lead Maud in leash but—! The bi¬ cycle is now being repaired. Need¬ less to say, the policeman was as stubborn as Maud and he "stuck" un¬ til he had tbe oonerous brute in the village lockup.
That is ail about Maud.
