A Notable Array of Cottages-NeW Ha.
ven Men Building Fine shore Homes.
Merwin's Point, near Woodmopt, is be-
coming most popular summer resort. With
in the last few years large colony of cot
tages have been built and there are at pres
emit three hundred people there, and at the
height of the season there will doubtless be
as many as nine hundred at this pretty spot.
There were about nine hundred there last
year in August. There are about fifty cot.
tagers at the Point and vicinity. A fine
new hotel, the Pembroke Cottage, was fin.
ished year ago, and the Point is being
brought forward more and more as delight.
full summer resort.
Many of the colonists are from Derby,
Birmingham, Ansonia and places in the
Naugatuck valley. A large part of them are
from New Haven. In fact, a large group oil
seasiders from this city have recently built
cottages there, snd the number of New Ha.
ven people who make short visits to the
hotels is said to be even greater than those
from the valley of the Naugatuck.

Principle or PolicY-Which2


As citizen of an adjoining town have
watched with deep interest the squabble that
has been going on in New Haven over the old
State House, and I am amazed at the audacity
of those who constitute the present city gov-
eminent. There we find set of men who
were placed in positions of honor and trust
to be the city's servants, not despots, going
right against the plainly expr essed will of a
large majority of its citizens. 1t may be that
those officials have SO much power that they
can act their own pleasure and the citizens
have no alternative but to submit; but it be-
hooves every believer in popular government,
of whatever clique, party or persuasion, to
do his duty and see that they are never given
another chance to thwart the peoples will
during their natural lives, for such characters
are the deadly foes of democratic government
and should be compelled to abide in obscure
ty until the advent of the full. fedged despot-
ism toward which we are rapidly Fastening.
And their services would be invaluable to
the rulers of a monarchical civilization.

Captured by Detective Brewer-A Man
OF Many Names.
Detective Brewer has been watching for
nearly three weeks for'a man who was guilty
of the many thefts which had been com.
planned of during the spring by students,
who reported tho loss of clothing and other
small articles. No clue was obtainable until
the proprietor of the Sterling House reported
that young colored man who had an over
plus of clothes had left trunk there. The
dective's watch was crowned with success
yesterday, when he arrested Maurice Jen-
kins, colored man with dozen or more
names.
In his trunk were found many articles of
clothing which were identified by various
parties, as well as fifteen titkets on different
New York pawnbrokers. At police head
quarters elk more pawn tickets were found
on the man. Twice before has he been ar
rested here for attempted thefts, but has
escaped punishment. He has spent consid-
cradle time in the Tombs.

The DifRculties Which Contractor W.
HI. Smith of Missouri Is ExprIencfng.
There is again trouble with the Fair Haven
mails. Three or four times during the last
few months they have not been delivered.
Yesterday they were in imminent danger Of
suffering the same misfortune. The Fair
Haven and Westville horse railroad came to
the rescue, however, and saved Fair Haven
people the trouble of trip to this city for
their letters. The difficulty seems to be that
W. H. Smith of Windsor, Missouri, an Old
star route contractor, has the contract for
carrying the mails from the New Haven post
Office to Fair Haven He took the contract for
$500, and since found that he could not do it
for that price. Indeed, some say that $500
would be none too small for the work. He
sub-let it to p q. Pinney. After one days
work Mr.. Pinney gave it up. E. P. Kelley,
an agent of Contractor Smith, was then sent
on, but reported that the horse car company
alone could afford to take the mails at the
price. The road carried them for few days
and Contractor Smith again sub-let the CON
tract to j. L. Blackmer, who also carried it
but day. Yesterday Postmaster English
made temporary contract with the horse
car company to hold until other arrange
ments can be made. Contractor Smith has
many contracts of the kind. He took this on
July and is under 5000 bonds for the full
fillment Of the contract.
