Several canals are being cut through the property, and as the immense dredgers loosen the sand a pipe line 1,600 feet long pumps it to various points on the adjacent surface. As the sand spurts out hundreds of live fish, eels and clams come with it. The ubiquitous small boys are on the ground and catch flounders, weakflsh and eels by hand.

Every household In Baldwin and vicinity is being supplied with band-caught fish. NEW CEDARHURST DIAMOND. Cedarhurst, L. May 20 Contract for grading the hew baseball grounds of the Cedarhurst Field Club has been awarded to Thomas J. Sanderson Son of Lawrence.

COLORING MATTER IS BLAMED. No Friction With School Authorities OTcr Matter, Contractor Declares. (Special to The Eagle.) Port Jefferson, L.

May 20 Some of the mortar used in laying the surface or outer course of bricks In the $75,000 public school house opened here six months ago, Is so faulty. It became known today that part of the work will have to be done again by the contractor. The trouble is due, It is asserted, to the fact that the coloring matter used In the mortar was mixed in the wrong proportion. Tooker Marsh, the architects, said that the specifications were properly drawn and that Charles V. Piatt, the contractor, has agreed to make the work right.

This will cost him about $1,000. The mortar Is so soft that In some places It can be scraped away with the finger-nail. None of the members of the Board of Education would be quoted on the matter, but one member said that the contractor, and the sub-contractors would scrape out the defective mortar and point the work up again. The architects, Tooker Marsh, declare that the specifications of the mortar were correct and that the trouble is due only to the use of an improper proportion of the coloring material. "The mortar In the outer wall is sound with the exception of about half an inch from the outside.

In that nor tlon the contractor has used too much coloring matter and that destroved the conesive power or the lime. The con tractor has agreed to make good all defects and will go to work imme diately to do all the necessary re-pairing thoroughly," Mr. Piatt, the contractor, savs that the surface brick course was In bad condition and that leaks in the school rooms were caused by this. He stated mat mere nas never been any dif ference between the School Board himself and Campbell Dempsev. the sub-contractors, regarding making right anything that was not entirely up to specifications.

He said that as soon as the matter was drawn to his attention he agreed to have the work done In proper shape, and after a con ference with the sub-contractors they agreeo. to uo ine worn over. wniie Mr. Piatt th nks there is a possibility of the coloring matter used In the cement in the outer course having killed the strength of the material, he says that Campbell DemD- sey are still of the impression that the bricks were laid up with mortar that was green: that moisture had been taken in and it was frozen.

Hollo ami Senator Thompson Persuade Clovernor to Change His Mind About Veto. (Special to The Eagle.) Albany, May 20 The Long Island Agricultural School at Farmlngdale will not lose lta $69,000 appropriation for. maintenance. If the managers of the school succeed in showing Governor Whitman the necessity for the item and Just what It Is to be used for In detail. The Governor will demand that every dollar of it be accounted for, however, and that the managers of the institution commit themselves definitely upon how it is to be expended before he permits it to remain In the general appropriation bill from which he struck it out temporarily last week upon discovering that it had been appropriated in bulk without any detailed restrictions as to the manner In which it was to be used or the purposes It was to be put.

This is the ultimatum that he delivered to Senator George L. Thompson of Kings Park, James T. Holla of the school's board of managers and A. Johnson, the director, the men who during the last three days have been during the Governor dally to recede, from his first tentative decision to strike the item out completely. Mr.

Holle Is reported to have been very heated In his argument with the Governor over the appropriation. Senator Thompson pleaded more moderately and succeeded In receiving the encouraging concession that if the school's managers could show the absolute necessity for the money and Just how It was to be used the Governor Would allow it to stand. In conformity with this, those Interested in the matter consulted with Comnliflsloner Wilson of the Department Of Agriculture yesterday and prepared to submit a minutely detailed statement. It is also understood that the managers have agreed to promise not to use all the $69,000. At least $9,000 of it is to be left untouched, It was declared yesterday.

COURT FIGHT FOR SQUAW PIT PURCHASE Justice Jaycox Reserves' Decision on Suit Over Babylon Land, 'i (Special to The Eagle.) L. May 20 Lawyer Raymond C. Haft made quite a strenuous effort In the Supreme Court yeaxeruay to nave justice jaycox ae clde that about eighty-four acres of land In what Is known as the Squaw Pit Purchase belongs absolutely to the Town of Babylon, which he represented, but Justice Jaycox reserved decision. The action was that of Anna F. San- ford against Charlotte LeRoy Llndley and others.

It was In the nature of a partition suit, but Babylon stepped In and claimed to own all of the land In question. Documentary evidence In the case dated back to the reign of King Charles II. This was In the form of the Nlcoll Patent to Huntington town, dated In 1666. Mr. Haft introduced this patent and other ancient history to prove that Huntington once had absolute possession and what Huntington owned went to Babylon when a part of Huntington was made Into the Town of Babylon.

Mr. Haft contended that the land had always been in the undisputed possession of the Towns of Huntington and Babylon. One witness testified that he had been acquainted with the land for many years, that no taxes had ever been paid on it, that it had always apparently been free land because anyone who wanted wood from it went there and carted it away. Testimony was introduced to prove that the land was worth at least $100 an acre based upon the present condition of the realty market. TO WED IN MASSACHUSETTS.

(Special to The Eagle.) Far Rockaway, L. May 20 Aroused at what they considered "disgraceful Job" of repavlng on Cen tral avenue, the residents of this com munity are prepared to carry on a still greater fight than any that has yet taken place in an effort to get the City of New York to give the Rock aways the Improvements that they need. The work In question, which was re cently finished, was the resurfacing with brick pavement a section of Cen fral avenue lying between Cornaga avenue and Mott avenue. Now that it i- finished, the residents claim that the street is in little better con dition than it was bifore. It is claimed that the pavement is rough, that water stands in sections of it during wet weather, and that within a short period, with traffic over it, the street will be as bad as it was before.

Onlv one side of the street was re naired. nothing was touched on the east side of the trolley tracks, and that Klda of the street is in as bad a condition as was the opposite side which has been repaired. Referring to this, Samuel Levy, a well-known business man on that side of the street said to an Eagle reporter: "I don't see why they did one side and not the other unless tney naa either rellsrlous or political reasons. They may have thought that there were Catholics on one side of the street and Jews on the other, other' wise. Democrats on one side and Re publicans on the other.

T. C. Webster, another business man on the street, stated that the grading was so faulty that water stands front of his store now the same as before the Jltreet was repaired. "They 'had as high as eighteen men. and three or four foremen on that job," said Mr.

Webster, and it was both amusing and sad to see them kill time In trying to keep out of each other's way. At least two of the men were off all the time. Sometimes there, were more away from work." A. L. Nebenzahl, while expressing himself dissatisfied with the street said: "What is the use to complain? We have no one to complain to, no matter what our grievance.

We might send a delegation to City Hall or write a letter of protest. In either case we would be told that the matter would receive attention, and that is all we would ever hear from it." RELIEF COMING IN GARBAGE SITUATION Connolly Promises Daily Collection in Rockaways During Summer. (Special to The Eagle.) Rockaway Beach, May 20 Residents of the Rockaways see relief coming In the garbage removal situation against which they have been complaining, as a result of the aid which Borough President Connolly has lent to their cause. The Borough President has promised that commencing June 1 the garbage will be collected every day in the Fifth Ward, Instead of only three times a week, as has been the condition In the past. The daily collections will be continued until after the summer season is over.

The DeoDle are Joyful. A delegation of citizens, representing the Civic Federation of the Rockaways, the Rockaway Beach Board of Trade, the Business Men's Association, the Seaside Taxpayers Association and the women of Arverne, called on Borough President Connolly on Tuesday to seek his aid in the garbage question and other matters relating to tuo Rockaways. The delegation returned full of praises for the Borough President and the manner in which he treated them. He listened for an hour and forty-five minutes to the-arguments advanced by the spokesmen of the delegation, Andrew J. Kenny and Stanley C.

Fowler. The matter of paving Rockaway Beach Boulevard was taken un. Mr. Connolly promised the delegation that he would appear before the Board of Estimate tomorrow to ask for a large appropriation ior yueens streets, and that he would apportion, If possible to do so, the $85,000 necessary for the boulevard pavement. In order not to have the work Interfere with the summer season the delegation asked to have the work postponed until December.

A good stone pavement will be used. If Borough President Connolly's support can do It, the boulevard will be sprinkled by the Ocean Electric Company. The franchise of this company requires It to sprinkle the boulevard. The sprinkler has not been out this season and the people want the dust laid. ENGAGEMENT ANNOUNCED.

Post, Former Governor of Porto Rico, Speaks in Patchogue Church. HELPED HOSPITAL NEAR PARIS. Robert Breese of Southampton Also One of Party of Sixteen That Volunteered. (Special to The Eagle.) Patchogue, L. May 20 A Jafge number of boys and young men last night heard Regis H.

Post, former Governor of Porto Rico, tell of his experiences as an ambulance driver in Paris. The lecture was given in the parisn nouse or Bt. rauia nurcn. Mr. Post said he first became inter ested In the work when dining in the Harvard Club in New York, one eve ning last November.

He saw a pla card posted there, calling for volunteers with cars for Red Cross ambulance work. He found a number already had volunteered, sixteen men In all, most of them Harvard graduates, and joined the party. Among those who went to the war zone were PhlU Carroll, Charles Levering, Richard Lawrence and Robert Breese, son of James Breese of Southampton. The hospital assigned for use was conducted entirely by Americans and was situated in Nenilly, a suburb of Parle. Formerly it was used as a high school.

In this building a large number of the French Wounded were treated by some of the most prominent physicians of the United States. Mr. Post's duties were meeting the trains that brought the wounded directly from the battlefield and transporting the men to the hospital. The hospital has three operating rooms, equipped with every modern surgical appliance, including an X-ray room and a bacteriological laboratory. The institution has 500 beds, in wards, where only surgical cases are treated.

Mr. Post said the wounded men are of all nationalities, but by far the greater number are Frenchmen. He seemed confident of French success because of the dogged determination they are showing. It is doubtful, he thinks, whether an early termination of hostilities will take place because of the spirit prevailing throughout all France to "do or die." 18 GRADUATES IN BRENTWOOD St. Joseph's Academy Is Scene of Elaborate Commencement Exercises.
