'Waller was the mag- net that drew the large crowd fo the soldiers and - sailors one night this, week and it was he who held the many assembled at the rally for Liberty loan bonds, arranged for and conduct- ed by Capt. J. N. Lapointe, a leading manufacturer, at'New London, and an enthusiastic home guarder and patri- otic citizen. Mayor Rogers closed his remarks by introducing Mr. Waller as New London’s Grand Old Man. Those close to the governor know that he did not relish the honorable and well- intended title bestowed on him, for he does not consider himself in the old men’s class, believing that a man is as old as he makes himself. Not long since the governor remarked: “When a man comes to you and says | ago, you know he does not mean it. He's only tickling your vanity and kid- ding himself.” Alhough the governor active as ever, so far as outward ac- tion goes, as was positively demon- strated when he talked to the muiti- tude from the monument platform }:;t e paced the granite platform with mezsured tread and forcible gesticula- tion, driving home the points of his speech with that same successful effect 2s.n the old days, when he paced and spoke from the old* Lawrence hall stage, or.on some temporary platform erected for political campaign. He was there with the goods, not as .the ‘Grand Old Man of New London, but as the original and only “Tom” Wal-~ ler. : 2 ‘ Away back in the dark days of 1861, when the first call came for volunteers in the war with the south, this same “Tom” Waller was known all over the state as:the “Brilllant Boy Orator,” but that title was as objectionable to him, perbaps, just as much as is the “Grand OId Man.”" He was one of the very first to mount the rostrum in the old -courthouse, or a drygoods box in e preserva- tion of the' union. Not only that; he was among the very first to step up ang enlist, and he has the real honor of having been a member of the first company that went from New London in the Civil war. What he did then y R. Uchtman is to be the speaker. He|he would undoubtedly do now, were he eligible. 'While the then young Waller did ‘not participate in any of the great battles of the-war, it was He was rejected from military duty after short service reason of defective evesight, a de- fect that could mbt be overcome. He offered to risk his life for country. Who could do more? Acting Police Captain Pinney, with the advice and consent of the mayor and the police committee, turned a good card when satisfactory place was made for Sergt. Benjamin Beebe, one.of the best and most faithful men ihat ever ‘donned a policeman’s uni- form in New London. ‘When Lieuten- ant Jeffers was appointed acting cap- tain, Sergeant Beebe was made act- ing lieutenant, a position that he really believed he deserved by reason of faithful service, a position that he aspired lo, and never desired to go any farther. When Charles Pinney was appointed captain that sent Lieutenant Jeffers back to his old job, and that meant back to duty'as night street sergeant for Benjamin - Beebe.

When he reported back ! for duty he declared that he did not hanker to go back to his old line of duty, and an agreeable place was made for him in the department. He was appointed additional desk sergeant, with hours of duty from midnight to 8 in the morning, thereby making the work day of each sergeant at the desk | eight hours. Formerly the two ser- geants weye required to. be on duty welve hours each. The change in Sergeant Beebe’s tour of duty left-a vacancy in the street sergeantcy, and this promotion came | unsolicited to Policeman David Nagle, He asked to be excused from that duty on the ground that the work was more than he could do properly, by reason of health conditions, and he asked to be permitted to retain his present job as traffic officer. His re- fuest was granted, and this gives the general public an idea- of the hard work that has'been done for several years by Sergeant Beebe, the oldest man on the force. Policeman Nagle has been on the force 17 years and he m:gge!ted that a younger man be made reet sergeant. Irank Howard has been appointed acting street sergeant and the appointment may be made permanent. Any policeman will have | to go some to do the work that has been accomplished by old ‘“Ben” Beebe. Just at this time when there is ar- rangement for increased ferry service, with special trips to the government shipyard on the.east bank of the har- bor, an ubiquitous reporter learns that the ferry committee has sold the spare ferryboat Colonel Ledyard to a junk- man and that the craft is to be broken up for the wood afid metal there is in her constructio Just how much-the committee received for. the boat the reporter evidently did not ascertain, or t may be that the committee did not want the public to know that feature of the transaction at the present time. Surely the purchase price must have been at least $300, and if that be so the wonder is that the rules of the| council were not complied with and i bids asked for the purcha It may be .that a committee of the court of common council has the right to sell property at 11, regardless of council action or city mePting perm m, but | it did not use to be so, when the late Charles Augustus Wil of New London, or & Senator Frank B. Brandegee was cor- poration counsel. The local policemen have donned white gloves and white caos for the summer, and it is extremely difficult; for the uninitiateq to tell a cop from a naval officer, and vice versa, and there are a great many naval officers in New London. The officers of the navy are held up frequently and mj taken for policemen and are queried on matters that are wholiy within the province of the police, and on the other hand the local cops are called upon to answer questions that are propounded under the supposition that they are representatives of the nav; Natural- ly the townspeople can te! cop by his walk a block away and never con- fuse the one with the other. The sec- retary of the navy.was in New London on Friday, and he ma note the simi- i n dress and may issue orders to ayor Rogers to have the local police prevented from masquerading as naval officers.
