K o n t n collector of th a port of New York, died Wed- a a s d a j ev e n in g of pneumonia at his ’ a a a u a e r home in Southampton. A rt old reaidanta of Speonk have ad o p ted an original method of pro- taatin g againat changing the name a t th e i r village. Bemeenburg is ao repugnant to them th a t thoy h a v f actually refused to attend aervioee in a church which bears th a t title. Tama are the long-awaited days of tfaa college yontfa, both boys and fiddt who as graduates are on the tip to e of pleasurable anticipation with a larking suspicion that the whole world will feel th e ir presence s a d rejoice th a t they are children of remarkable ability. The crop of bow lawyers and physicians is un- osually large. They evidently hope to .profit by the fact that human aatore is always getting in a tan gh» g a d to n a p rich profits thereby. Wail, the world ia large and has always spare room for those who know how to climb.

At the m eeting of the Supervisors in L L City on the 18th, the claim of tbe Taxpayers’ association tliat the county waa bonded beyond the constitutional limit was discuss ed. Counselor Scudder held that the bonded indebtedness of tbe oounty included only debts incurred by the Board of Supervisors and not village, towu and school debts. H e subm itted figures showing the total bonded indebtedness to be 82 ,07*2,500, less than 3 per cent, under last year’s assessment and only half tbe actual value. This year’s assessment will be higher and tbe percentage of bondage lower. The resolution in regard to ma cadamizing the South turnpike, which is a continuation of the Mer rick road from W antagh east to the county line, was carried unanimous ly. This . will give a complete stretch of macadam from Jamaica to the county line. Tuesday, June 29, was the day set for a public hearing in the vil lage of Hem pstead on the question of m acadam izing Jerusalem avenue and Bethpage turnpike. y - A committee of the Board was appointed to investigate all the railroad crossings in the county and to ascertain w hat means could be taken to have the Long’Island Rail road company place gates at the more dangerous ones. The bonds of E. F. Vneherou for the proposed performance of con tract to sprinkle tlie county roads was fixed a t $10,000. It was decided to borrow from the contingent fund $10,000 for the county road maintenance fund nnd $10,000 for the poor fund. Both of these accounts were overdrawn to the tune of $11,000 last year,so that amount set aside for this y ear’s work has not all been used tbis year. A Good Move. Th* action taken by the Super visors at their meeting on Thursday last to macadamize the South Turn- pike from Wantagh east to the eoonty line is commendable and worthy of more than passing notice. one who has had occasion to taavel over the read knowa that the stn teh east o i Wantagh is a dan- fwrona one in winter, when severe ■lorms cause water to cover the road at groat depth and wash deep holes in ita surface. The residents -lot th* easterly portion of tbis town will greatly appreciate the improve- ment—-not to mention the thousands ot b icycle ridora who travel over the road in ■nmmer. Now let the county lathera add another laurel to their wreath fay incorporating into the oounty system Jerusalem avenue, M d tbs’circuit of macadam roads will bo a grand one. Now Election Law.

Smith tells of a rem a rkable ride once made by G eneral G rant from the village of Bethlehem to tho Profile House in the W h ite mountains. The driver was Edw ard Cox, and Mr. Smith d escribee the ride as follows: When, about 7 o'clock of that calm August evening, the presiden tial party stepped oat of the S inclair ; House, G eneral G rant's trained eye, 1 sweeping over the team with the glance of n connoisseur, at once reo- ognized its excellence. W alking ! quickly to the d r iver’s side, he said to Cox, “ I f you have no objections, I w ill get u p t h e r e w ith you.” “ I t is p r e t t y ro u g h r id i n g u p here, gen e r a l , \ w a s th e rep ly . “ I can stand it if you e n n ,” said G r a n t, as he clim b e d to th o place and settled him s e lf. T h e p r e s id e n t was dressed in hig h silk h a t, black su it and a long linen d u s te r covering as m n c b of his clo th in g as possible. T h e o t h ers of tho p a r t y a d ju s ted them s e lves 1 in t h e big, h e a v y w a g o n according to th e i r ideas of com fort, and all w a s ready.
