Hence his life -was one serjes of victorles. He was a goad soldler, an honest and astute business man, a faithful public servant, a loyal friend, a fair foe. He followed his lights ag God had given him to see them. In politics he did much and stood for much to which we cannot subscribe; but, there can de no im- peachment of his motives nor his in- tegrity. Bhere can be no doubt that his home city, the state, and the na- tion are a great deal poorer today by his passing from the sphere of busi- ness and politics in which he so long played so prominent and so fine a part—New Haven Union (dem.)

Perplexed Cats. The cat of the perfod uplifts her wvoice in a new and grevious lamenta- tion. It is because of the architects. An indolent face, they are making one design seryé for twenty-nine con- secutive flat houses, and the cat can’t be certain which eof the twenty-nine is hers, even when sober. After a quiet evening at the club she is worse off yet. She réels through the wrong palatial portal and staggers to and fro in the wrong gilded corridor, meeowling like a lost soul. In vain does her master sit up to let her in. He is six numbers further down the street and no self-exculpatory hiccough an- swers: his '‘cry of “Kitty!kittikittikit- ty” This tragical situation has been laid before the Clerk by one who bids him speak harshly to the architects Thanks! The pleasure is wholly the «Clerk’s! Oh, wicked architects and hard of heart, how have ye fallen from @race! To think that ye, who once de- signed big holes for big cats and lit- tle holes for little. cats, should be so dead to all sense of humanity! ’'Tis scandalous.—The Clerk in the Boston Transcript.

' The Especial Changes. Summarized, the especial changes i the Meyer plan are: > The selection .of four responsible ad- visers on subjects within the four groups into which duties of the de- partment fall, to be known as the aide for material. the aide for personnel, the aide for operations of the fleet, and the aide for inspections. The groupings of the bureaus into two divisions of material and person- nel, according to the hature of their duties. The establishment of a division of operations of the fleet, The establishment of a comprehen- sive inspection system. The establishment of a modern and efficient cost-keeping system in the navy department and at navy yards. The separation of navy yard work into two divisions of hulls and ma- chinery. The abolishment of the board of con- struction. The aholishment of the bureau of equipment. Officers Who Fight the Ship Are te Have More Influence. Henceforth, it is announced, the offi- cers who fight the ships are to have more influence in the navy depart- ment. Chosen men from among- them are to be the official eyes and ears of the secretary, laden with full respon- sibility for their representatives. The secretary, however, will retain his ad- ministrative and executive power for his own exercise, and that of the as- sistant secretary of the navy. All the reforms go into effect December 1, ex- cept the abolishing of the bureau of equipment, which congress alone can o. The a/#e for the operations of the fleet will be Rear Admiral Richard Wainwright, commander of the third division of the Atlantic fleast. The alde for personnel will be Rear Admiral W. W. Potter, now chief of the bureau of nhvigation. The aide for material will be Rear Admiral William Swift, commandant of the Boston navy yard. MR. SKELLY'S ‘MONKEYS. Bristol Man Has a Fondness for the Little Simians—Other Pets. A James W, Skelly of Bristol has been or >veral yvears interested in mon- vs the Waterbury American. rirteen years he has seldoin been out 2 v or two. At the pres- t time he has two youngsters which confined in a fine cage which has £wings, mirrors and a telephone set for the monks to amuse themselves with. The ‘op of the cage has a large mirror which forms the ceiling. As the two immates look to this ceiling they see ‘their bodies mirrored in the glass and supposing Iintruders are there they make savage attacks, ges- ticylating wildly. Several years ago Mr. Skelly was in business in New Haven. Not far Mok Wk Bikkpiiis NoviDopartanat Sikte: Fo- tablishment of the Bureau in 1842—Secretary Meyer's The aide for inspection will be Capt. Aaron Ward, recently supervisor of the New York harbor, who will become a rear admiral Jan 9. Capt. Reginald F. Nicholson, a mem- ber of the board of ins; on and sur- vey, will be made chief of the bureau of navigation, vice Potter. When Mr. Meyer assumed office he found some . confusion in the depart- ment and in the navy yards, due to changes instituted by Secretary New- berry a few weeks before the close of his administration, Steps were taken to ascertain how far it was desirable to follow the reforms outlined by Sec- retary Newberry. The Sperry board was created to re- port how the various conflicting or- ders and regulations could best be rec- onciled. Then camed the Leutze board which was asked to make recommen- dations concerning the consolidation of the bureau of steam engineering with other bureaus, a step undertaken by Secretary Newberry. Finally Sec- retary Meyer appointed the Swift board to consider the reports of the other boards and to make recommen- dations for the improvement of the business methods of the department. With these reports as a basis, Sec- retary Meyer has evolved his plan of reform. The secretary found that the bu- reaus of the department were inde- pendent of ene another and that he must decide all differences between them. The aides are to advise him on these points. “If the secretary seeks advice from individual officers,” said Mr. Meyer, today, in explaining his reforms, ‘“he gets advice which may be good but which Is not responsible. Such re- course to individuals, moreover, gives no assurances of continuity of policy, nor responsibility.” Board of Construction Abolished. According to the Meyer plan, the board of construction becomes useless and 1s therefore abolished. This board was created principally to supervise ship designing and to decide questiops in dispute between thé bureaus. Under the Meyer plan the operating pranch, which deals directly with the military use of the fleet, will originate the military features of new construc- tion in comsuitation with the general board, whieh the new aide for oper- ations will be a member. The bureaus will be ealled upon finally to prepare the actual plans. The existing bureau of yards and docks, the marine corps and certain other branches of the department, not logically included in any one of the four divisions of duties will be placed under the assistant secretary. WOMAN WHIPPED HIM. Trouble Over Milk Bill Results in Law suit. As a result of a disagreement over a milk bill, George Destin of Orange brought two suits of $1,000 each last week against Walter H. Bradley and his wife, of Meriden, who spend the summers at Woodmont. Destin says that on November 16 Mrs. Bradley at- tacked him with horsewhip and Mr. Bradley with a cane, “causing much physical injury and distress of mind.” Deputy Sheriff Bradleey served the pa- | pers, and property has beeen attached. It is said that not count the money given to him. Later he returned and said that the amount was $5 short. Words followed, and later Mr. and Mrs. Bradley drove Destin went to the | Bradleys to collect a milk bill and did | Episcopal Church, Branford.

Full details on application. | the S from his store two young lads* owned a couple of small monkeys which had been brought from South Africa. The pets were quite interesting and Mr. Skelly purchased them and brought them to Bristol when he came thera. Finally one died. The other also took sick and dled. Miss Justine Ingersoll, who re- cently died and bequeathed her mon- keys to the Smithsonian institute of Washington, D. C., heard of Mr. Skel- 1y’s loss and offered him a fine rhesus monkey named Solomon. This_ fine monkey was accepted by Mr. Skelly and was a Bristel resident for several months. He was finally returned to Miss Ingersoll and is now part of the family consigned to the Smithsonian institute, But monkeys are not the only ami- mals that Mr. Skelly is interested in and provides a home for. At his stable he has arranged a fine yard where this past summer he had in one en- closure three hawks, six rabbits, three monkeys and three doves. They all | lived peacefully together, too. Salmon Rounded Up by a Seal. While sitting on the shore at Inverness Firth the other day a correspondent of tsman observed about half a dozen seals, each at a short distance from the other, moving in a kind of semi-circle toward a small bay. Curi- osity made him follow their movements ag the seals slowly made for the shore, Each kept him place well, though oc- casionally dicappearing and reappear- ing. To his great surprise he saw that a shoal of salmon were being herded toward the shore, where they ultimate- ly feil victims to the seals. What struck the correspondent most was the intelligent way in which the salmon GAVET & PORTER Sterling New England Securities 45 Kilby Street, Boston — “HERE’S YOUR CHANCE” Dame Fortune is likely to say that any day to the man with a good bank account.

Farmers in and about Manchester have become very bitter against the state laws protecting deer, and claim that while it is right to have laws to prevent the extinction of the animal, it is not right to have the laws so stringent that they cannot kill the ani- mals to save their own property. It is all right for the state to pay dam- ages which are generally less than the actual loss, but no damages repay them for two or three years' eareful tending of vorng trees ,etc., only to have them destroyed by deer, which have become 20 bold that they will attempt to rush over a full grown man who attempts to-drive them off. CALL FOR TROLLEYMEN. Activity in Bridgeport Factories Re- sponsible for Scareity in That City. A call was sent out in New Haven Friday for about 50 motormen and “conductors to enter the employ of the Connecticut company at Bridgeport. The reason for this call upon New Haven is stated by the trolley offeials to be due to the wave of business pros- perity which has reached Bridgeport, and which has led many of the trel- leymen to leave their places and %o go into the shops where they claim they can make more money.

Now that there are rumors and even assertions that railway trains soon are to be or soon may be moved at a rate several times faster than any to which the latest of recent schedules have ac- cusiomed us, there is interest and per- haps pertinency in some computations made by The Scientific American with a view to showing that speed in- creases cannot go on indefinitely. There is a limit, and the limit is due to two fagts—one, that every journey must have a beginning and an ending, and that while human beings could endure transmission at any speed, they must be started and stop- ped with due regard te their pewer to resist shocks. , The quickest way te get from one point to another without uncomfert- ahlz o. distastrous effects on passen- gers is to travel faster and faster un- til halt the distance is traveled, and then to slow down gradually until the destination is reached. By a mathematical calculation not necessary to repeat here, it is discovered that living passengers will never be trarsported between New York and Philadelphia in less tham six minutes, ferty-four seconds, and that Boston will never be reached in a shorter time than ten minutes four seconds. This is rather disappointing.—N. Y. Tribune. A New Suburban Terror, The French scientist who has invent- :-“du o‘t new terror toamm h;‘ Yok Tsibuns The Geo. W. Kies Co.
