A Token of Esteem.

From far off Florida comes tribute of
friendship for our popular foreman, John
E. Skinner. 1t is staff of orange wood
beautifully polished and decorated and
suggestive of balmy air and orange groves,
while as still further reminder of this
far southern state, the staff's head is
mounted with fine representation carved
in ebony of an alligator, whose recumbent
position on the arm of the cane and easy
attitude speaks of contentment and life
| of ease for the time being. The gift is from
an ex-CoURIER printer, Mr.. Arthur 'Signor,
who is now engaged upon the Florida
Times Union. The staff speaks of old
pleasant associations in New Haven among
his daily co-workers Of the craft, and re-
calls the fact that absence is not always
successful in weakening old friendships.
sCRIMMAGE AT THE STATION.
Police Officers Have Lively Times
With Two Young Toughs Last
Night.
The police headquarters was the scene
| of lively times last evening when Officers
Powers, Coulfeld and Dippold, brought in
Michael Luby and John Ryland for drunk
enness. The men did not resist until they
were in the patrol wagon and their fight
ing qualities were then displayed to an
admiring public. When they were landed
| at the station one of them, Luby, was con-
siderably the worse for wear, having come
in contact with a policemans club, which
made scalp wound. Blood flowed pro-
fusely and his appearance was not the most
prepossessing. Ryland seemed to lose his
head at this sight and made violent
break for the side door and liberty, and
claims relationship with Bridgeport's
| chief Of police. The two arrested were
certainly tough looking pair, and thei,
dialect was Of the same nature. They
were arrested on Meadow street neal
Church street.
