Sims has made an attack upon the detective novel, asserting that the criminal hero of the drawing room is an impossible and a preposterous character. In line with his views is the statement of Mr. Melville, who until recently was the head of the spe- clal service branch of Scotland Yard. “I used te read detective stories” said Mr. Melville to a London reporter who interviewed him on Mr. Sims’ state- ment, “because I mever was above learning, but I gave them up in the end. The writers set up their plots like so many ninepins aiming solely at knocking them -down ‘again. Neither the crimes nor the criminals are re- cognizable in my experience. All this ‘well-dressed burglar business is sheer nonsense. I have never known crime which was not squalid and unpleasant. Buch a thing as romance connected with the criminals of today is un- thinkable. As a rule they are men who are too idle to work and simply prefer to steal. Nor is there anything really romantic in the political crime. ‘The conspirator of fiction is no rela- tion to his brother in real life, He is often an idealist, but sometimes he is only an ordinary criminal with a spec- tacular bent. I have had many of them pass through my hands and they are very unromantic persons. The really great detective story where the solu- tion of the problem is not to be found quite early, and at the same time fol- dows the probabilities of actual life, has yet to be written.”—N. Y. Time: An Anti-Vaccination Triumph. The action of the members of the Bridgeport board of education in re- scinding the rules in regard to vaccl- nation is another proof of their habit- ual good sense and of the promptness with which they recognize changes in public feeling. When Major Boudren began his solitary crusade against the superstition which exacted a surgical operation as a preliminary to public school instruction it was loudly as- serted that there was no force of pub- lic opinion behind his efforts. But when the board modified its require ments sufficiently to allow persons who had conscientious objections to vaceci- nation to aveid the ordeal for their children by petitioning the superinten- dent of schools the fallacy of this as- sumption soon became manifest. The number and earnestness of ‘the letters which reached Superintendent Deane brought surprise even to those oppo- nents of vaccination who felt that they represented the modern and disinter- ested view of the question. It is also satisfactory to know that the board is beginning to perceive that the readine; of those in charge of public schools to follow every fashion or caprice which is suggested by doc- tors or lboards of health is fast placing them at a disadvantage when compared with parochial schools or other private institutions. The public schoels will do well to disclaim all responsibility for medical inspection or any similar propositions for multiplying sinecures at the expense of those elementary provisions for education which fall so heavily upon the taxpayers. Public schools cannot afford to lineur the odium of enforcing measures which are almost as distasteful to the public as vaccination. Such things should be kept apart from the common schools, which are likely to need all the popu- larity they possess for their protection in the immediate future. The news that the local school board has acted with such exemplary wisdom and liberality will give it an additional claim upon the respect of the public. It should not be forgotten, however, that the advanced position which Bridgeport now occupies in regard to compulsory vaccination is absolutely due to the courage and persistency of one loyal citizen. Major Boudren has given unlimited time and enthusiasm to the cause for many years and has defrayed nearly if not quite all the ex- penses of the battle out of his own pocket. Such unselfish devotion to the public welfare is extremely rare, and all friends of personal liberty will re- joice that the man who has so stead- fastly borne misrepresentation and mockery of all kinds has gained a measure of success to repay him for his endeavors.—Bridgeport Telegram. The Lure of the Arctic. “Why,"” asks the Philadelphia Rec- ord, “should Captain Amundsen plunge into the Arctic regions with provisions for seven years? The pole has been reached and that is all that anyone wants of it.” But the pole is only a point in an enormous wilderness, and, as it happens, no more interesting, in- trinsically, than any other point, es- pecially as it is not marked by land. Around It for hundreds of miles in nearly every direction stretches a tract of which nothing is actually known, and it is not surprising that there are restless spirits who will not be con- tent until the last foot of this unex- plored waste has been charted, Cui bono? The question is as old as polar adventure, and anyone who asks it is unlikely to be convinced by the Arctic enthusiast who attempts to answer it —Providence Journal MOTHERS Of Skin-Tortured and Disfigured Babies Should Know That warm baths with Cuticura Soap and gentle anointings with Cuticura, the t Skin Cure, affo instant relief, permit rest and sleep, and point to.a speedy, permanent, and eco- nomical cure of tortur- ing, disfiguring milk- crusts, scall head, eczemas, rashes, itch- ings, irritations, in- flammations, chafings of infants and children, and afford rest and comfort to worried, worn-out par- ents, when all else fails.

Small Towns and Bulkeley. The republican politicians are spec- ulating as to with whom, Bulkeley or McLean, Col. Ullman of New Haven will take sides in the coming senatorial campaign. Col. Ullman is now the Poo-bah of New Haven, having pilot- ed his party to victory in the recent municipal contest in that city when the conditions favored the democracy. Mr. MclLean would undoubtedly make a more representative senator than Mr, Dulkeley. He is younger, has more advanced ideas of governmentl ques- tions and would carry more influence than the present incumbent. These qqallflcations, however, do not always win, and they many not prove so in the senatorial contest, whether Col. Ullman takes part or not. Those who have gone over the ground carefully say that the small towns will as a rule line up for Bulkeley. If they do it will not make much difference where the generals, the colonels and the captains stand. Tt will mean another term for the gentleman from Hartford.—New Britain Herald.

George A. Reynolds, clerk of the Hartford fire board, has a brick which was taken from the cellar floor of the house . formerly owned by the Rev. Davenport, founder of New Haven colony, and later by his father, William A. Reynolds, says the Hartford Times. This cellar room hecame noted as the hiding place for a time of three regicides, Goffee, Whalley and Dixwell, instrumental in bringing about the ex- ecution of Charles 1 of England, who was beheaded at Whitehall Jan, 30, 1649, Goffee, Whalley and Dixwell were three of the members of the high court of justice which on Jan. 27, 1649, condemned Charles I to death. In 1660 Charles II issued the declara- whereby pardon was Parlia- Nineteen their death, though they were never tried. Ten others were ex— ecuted immediately, while three others were caught in Holland and taken to Many lived in Dixwell figured conspicuously. These thvee men fled to New Haven colony amnl were sheitered by the Rev. John Davenport. Emissaries from Charles IT were in quest of them and suspected the founder of New Haven colony of hielding the three men who were con- cealed in the cellar room. Davenport entertained the represent- atives of the king on the floor above and talked in a loud voice in order thai the three regicides in the room hear all that transpired. They heard it all and escaped during tho entertainment of the emissaries to what is now known as Judges' Cave were never found by the king’s representa- tivez. This cave was also known as Regicides’ Cave. The room in which the three men were concealed was preserved and in 1848 the property passed into the hands of William A. Reynolds, father of George A. Reynolds, a direct de- scendant of the Rev. John Davenport, who because of historic associations w to it that the room was preserved in its entirety. About a year ago the property passed to a church. society which is now erecting a new edifice on thas spot. The New Haven colonists, as well ag others. protected the three men, Goftee, Whalley and Dixwell, an@ Charles the IT never had the satisfaction of having them executed. Three New Haven thoroughfares today bear the names of the three men, Goffee street and Whal- ley and Dixwell avenues, all diverging from about the vicinity in which the three men concealed themselves. AN EARLY PRINTER. John Foester the First to Establish a Press in Boston—Work Received by Connecticut Historical Society. The Connecticut Historical society has received from the Massachusetts Historical society a work on “John Foster, the Earliest American En- graver and First Boston Printer.” His claims te beth titles are clearly set forth in the volume and, being the first of the Beston printers, he could with but little violence be considered as In the ancestry of The Courant. Foster was born in 1648 and gradu- ated from Harvard college in 1667. Because of his learnings he wss a schoolmaster as well as a printer and engraver. That he was well thought of is shown by a letter writ- ten by John Eliot, the Indian apostle, who refers to him as “an ingenious young scholar.” A specimen of his work as an engraver, is a picture of Richard Mather, who after meking all possible allowance for the austerity ot the Puritans could not possibly have looked as forbidding as he is depicted. Another work by Foster appears on a broadside entiled “God's Severe Judgments Upon Sabbath Breakers in Their Unlawful Sports, Collected Out of Several Divine Subjects.” It bears four cuts by Foster, one showing the drowning of a party of young men who were playing football on the ice on the Lord’s day; another the burn- ing of a woman and her two daugh- ters who were weaving and spinning flax on the Sabbath; a third the burn- ing of a mill because the miller was grinding on Sunday, and the fourth a biblical scene showing the punish- ment inflicted on Sabbath breakers. All are thoughtfully provided with captions In order that they may be recognized. Foster was more active as a printer than as an engraver and like the men of his time, he printed sermons and especially those delivered by In- crease Mather. One notavle example is “The Wicked Man's Portion, or a Sermon Preached at the lLecture in Boston on the 18th day of the 1 Month, 1674, when two Men, Nicho- las Feaver and Robert Driver, were executed who had Muthered their Master Wherein it Shewed that Ex cess in Wickedness doth bring Un- timely Death.” The Dorchester records bear this entry under date of 1681: “This year died Mr, John Foster, son of Captain Hopestill Foster, schoolmaster of the colony, and he that made the then seal or arms of the colony; namely an Indian with a bow & arrow.” He was of such importance that an elegy up- on him was written and printed, for- tunately, after his death. It contains some seventy-five lines and its char- acter can be judged by its beginning, which follows: “Here lye the relict Fragments that were took Out of Consumption’s teeth by Cook.

Prof. Otto Schientensack of the uni- versity of Heidelberg has given to the anthropological department of the Yale university museum a cast of the fa- mous “Heidelberg man.” The “man” consists of the lower jaw of an ances- tral type of man of prehistoric char. acter, found in a sand pit near Hei- delberg by Professor Schientensack, and is the oldest part of human re- mains ever found in the world belong- ing to the lower quarternary period. The teeth of the jaw are perfectly preserved and the jaw itself nearly twice the size of the ordinary human jaw besides having variations which mark it as belonging to the missing link between the race of apes and man. It is said to be the first speci- ‘n;;n of the jaw received in this coun- Maj.

NAUGATUCK PASTOR. Member of Di-tingui.‘hod Wolcott Family of New England. The Rev. Philip C. Walcott, the newly appointed pastor of the Nauga. tuek Congregational church, belongs to a family of distinguished clergymen of New England. He was born at Torringford in 1871, his father, the Rev. Dana M. Walcott, being pastor of the Torringford church at that tie, He is a direct descendant of the Rev. Samuel J. Mills, familiarly known in Connecticut history as “Father Mills,~ one of the early pastors of the Tor- ringford church, and related to Sam- uel J. Mills, one of the pioneers in the missionary movement which re- sulted in the American board of mis- sions. Mr. course in the of the of the Walcott took the academic at Yale university, graduating year 1900. He was a member Phi Beta Kappa and president Yale union, and for one termn of the undergraduate debating or. ganization. Fle was one of the Yale representatives who successfully de- bated with Princeton in 1896, and was a member of the undergraduate committee, who met in conference with reference to the abolition of sophomore societies. He was also a member of the graduate committee appointed to co-operate with the fi ulty in arranging for the bi-centenni celebration of Yale university in 1901. Later he was secretary of the Dart- mouth college Y. M. C. A, and after. wards entered the Hartford theo- logical seminary, from which instit tion he was graduated in the y 1904. In the sape year he was called to the assistant pastorate of the Asylum Hil Congregational church of Hartford OILED ROAD ‘Wearing Much Better Than That Left Untouched.
