RTISEIWIENT PAGE 3 CARSON’S COLUMN The Times informs us that several prominent youpg Republicans of Hemp stead have made up their mind to break into the organization and that they have gbne so far as to threaten to put a complete ticket in the field against the regular organization. This insures a little more interest in the coming campaign; we wiii then have in the field at least four lists of candidates. I understand,''however, that the regu lar Rwpuhftcan ticket will be endorsed with the exception of the present town clerk and Judge Gittens, in whose places they will undoubtedly nominate James O’Neil for Justice, or Walter Jones, and for town clerk some promi nent resident of the Village of Hemp stead, yet again have I heard that some of the insurgents have been looking for good material for supervisor, other than Mr. Cox. Several prominent men have been mentioned as possible candidaets for Mr. Cox’s place. There is very little in the present insurgents move to worry the organiza tion for as far as the writer can ob serve it is contained entirely in the Vil lage of Hempstead, and why Hemp stead should be very much dissatisfied, I cannot understand. They certainly have a goodly share of >hfe J patronage. I have heard that the organization leaders are not particularly anxious about the renomination of J. Huyler Elllison for assessor from the fifth. This is not surprising. Mr. Ellison has obtained considerable popularity in Fire circles especially, and he has been mentioned several times by lead ing citizens for promotion. The opinion among the organization evi dently is that the worthy assessor is ambitious. M^.’ Ellison has done more than most officials. He has succeeded in most of the things he has attempted; he has been president of the Nassau County Firemen’s Association, he is trustee of the Village Board, he was first assistant chief of the Freeport Fire Department, Foreman of the Bug House Hose Company and a member of nearly every social or secret organiza tion in the town. Mr. Ellison is thoroughly liked in his district and always has large majority on his side I have been told by organization leaders that Mr. Ellison makes the best assessor the Town of Hempstead ever had, but they say he has had the office twice and cannot expect to have it for ever. Although Mr. Ellison will have some opposition to re-nomination there is little doubt that it would be a mis take for the organization to permit him to be turned down at this time. put them in proposition form voters at the coming election. There is also one other thing and that is sidewalks. It seems that the Village Board has power to compel the property owners to put some form ot sidewalks in front of their property and it surely is time that a Village of our size should have some other place than the street to walk in, as is. the condition in some sections. spond.” Miss Florence deaman will be the^leader. The Wantagh Gun Club held a shoot on Lincoln’s Birthday. Some good scores were made. William Schultz made the highest, breaking 19 biifds out of a possible 25. William Dean broke 12 out of 25. Another shoot will be held Saturday the twentieth. Theatrical Notes THE SIGMOND Last Saturday night the Sigmond .Opera _ House was again crowded; standing\ room only was to be had at 8.30. A twelve number bill was put on which was exceptionally good. One of the hits was the acrobatic number of Ardo & Eddo triple bar performers. Mr. and Mrs. Harry Thorne and Com pany put over their well-known sketch “ A Harlem Flat,” and kept the house in a roar. Miss Winona Wilson, vio lin, with pictures,! has a pleasing act which took with the audience. A musical comedy offering was that of Tanean, Felix and Claxton, who played on several brass instruments and a bass drum, also putting in some good jokes. Their act went well. The rest of the bill was equally good and the show closed with new pictures on the Sigmond-o-scope. Monday, Marie Doran’s interpreta tion of the “ Devil” as dramatized by her, drew a crowd which filled all the higher priced seats in the house and left hut a few of the cheaper ones un sold. The play was “ deep” and for this reason was not given the applause another show might expect to receive. The audience was attentive to the play and none of its points escaped them. We judge the company to be a capable one and able to take care of the play as it is written. The lighting effects were excellent, both in front tand on the stage. The program for to-morrow night is printed in the advertising columns of this issue, and will be equal to those already seen here. Manager Sigmond will book dramatic attractions of recognized worth to play at his theatre on other nights than Saturday, which WWl be reserved for the usual vaudeville.

It ROOSEVELT A large number attended the Clip ping Social an^-dance given by the La dies’ Auxiliary at the Board of Trade Hall Friday evening. Many funny prizes were won. Prof. Mole furnish ed the music for -dancing, which was enjoyed until a late hour. Mr. William Smith of Merrick, who was ordered South by Dr. Denton, left Wednesday for the southern part of Florida, accompanied by William Smith of this village. Soon after Mr. Smith started his house on Clinton Ave., this village, he was taken sud denly ill. It is hoped by his many friends that the southern climate will help him to recover. Miss Madge Balster of St. Johns- j ville, N. Y,, resigned her position as j teacher in the public shcool at Fort j Plain, N. Y., and has accepted a posi tion as teacher in the school of this place. What the New York Clipper has to i say of Mr. and Mrs. Garland Gaden of ! this village: “Garland Gaden and Laura Loraine in “ The New Girl,” by Franklyn Knight, have tallied a great success to their credit. They put the act on at the Columbia, Brooklyn, week of Jan. 25th, and the consensus of opinion was that tW sketch was gen uinely funny.

DRUGGISTS F R E E . 165,4 steps from To show how rapidly this place is growing two years ago this village had a one -story school with three teachers. To-day it has a two story building with six teachers and next year it wi*l have dance for the Catholic Church building | have one more teacher, fund will take place. The talent, use One of our contemporaries, speaking of the coming people’s primary of the Village of Freeport, states that it will not mention candidates unless they find qut whether the persons suggested are really candidates. That may be quite proper from the point of view of that newspaper, hut it seems to me that if a number of leading citizens of the Village of Freeport pick out a man and state that they would like to have him accept the office, that is comp imen- tary, to say the least, and I think a newspaper should give to its readers all the interesting topics of the day, and to that extent I am going to give a list of candidates suggested by different men. Of course some of these names mentioned may not have any idea of ac cepting the respective offices, still they will not feel offended to think that they are looked upon as citizens in such good standing that the people, or some of them, would like to honor them. One of the most prominent men men tioned, and to whom there s^ms to be little opposition for the office of the president of the village is Mr. Chas. A. sigmond. But I have also heard mentioned the fact that Mr. Morrison should re-consider, and take the office again, but I am informed the office requires too much time and as there is no salary it is a big sacrifice to ask one man to make for so long a period. Mr. Morrison has been in the Board a good many years and has made an excellent official in every respect and should, in the writer’s opinion, be pro moted to some higher office. I have also heard mentioned for the same office, that good citizen and old- time resident of the Village of Free port, Franklin Bedell. Any one bf these three men will serve Freeport well. For Village Trustee the following names have been mentioned: William E. Colder, R. H. Mayland, John D. Gunning and William P. Jones. Wil liam P. Jones seems to have the strong est backing to succeed Mr. Sigmond, in case he receives the nomination for President. There is considerable rivalry for the collectorship. This office has some redeeming features to it as the collec tor gets some pay for his work, and I understand that the present collector, Elvin Dorlon, who hap made an efficient one, is a candidate to succeed himself, while George B. Patterson of tfie fifth district is also out for the office. Mr. Patterson would make a good official. For treasurer I hear that the present incumbent w ill' be candidate for re- nomination, while Wallace Post and Samuel Raynor have been both men tioned as possible andidates. I would say of these, as of all the men men tioned above, there is not one who would not make excellent officials. They are all esteemed citizens of our Village and I am proud to be able to mention so honorable a list. of hall, the orchestra and paying of the house staff has been donated by Mr. Sigmond. FULTON THEATRE An offering of importance will be “ At the White House.” by the Benja min Chapin Players. This is the origi nal of the Lincoln play which has at tracted so much attention. Arthur McWatters and Grace Tyson return in a new and important presen tation, “ The Mimic World.” Weston, Young and company, will offer a bright little skit,rapid in action- and replete with songs and dancing. Five people are concerned in the un folding of the filmy thread of plot. There is not a dull moment in the four teen minute offering. The Fasio Trio, a foreign importa tion, oifer many new combinations in the matter of equilibristic work and hand standing. Mr. and Mrs. Arthur F’orbes will ap pear in Mrs. Forbes’ new sketch en titled “ A Wild Rose,” capitally staged and rendered. Both are well known to vaudeville goers as well as to the dramatic stage, and their appearance here will be welcomed. Harry Johnson, a black-face come dian, will offer some clever comedy work. Harding and Ah Sid will pre sent their very funny “ Fun in a Chi nese Laundry.” Maude Morris, from the George M. Cohan shows, will sing and Mile Olive will present a novelty juggling act. Other good numbers, with new and attractive pictures]on the Morriscope, will complete an excellent bill. Matinee Monday. The Board of Trade at its last meet ing recommended that the Village Board make some arrangements for an economic fire alarm system, also that some arrangements be made about crosswalks.

The well known pedestrian, Henry Smith of Whitehouafe Villa, who is recognized as the champion walker hereabouts, must needs take off his sky-piece to Mrs. George Robinson, who out walked him on that night and secured the prize thereby. However it must be conced ed that Mr. Smith is chivalrous enough to bow in defeat to his fair opponent. The children’s prize was carried off by Master Herbert VanDeusen. Have your Pianos Tuned BY B.
