Another Site for the High School.
 To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 Among the locations which have been suggested for the new high school and training school buildings, am surprised that no more attention has been given to one which seems to me incomparably the best of all. refer to ths south side of George street, at the end of College street. The site is central aud yet quiet, and all the land necessary eau be had there at a price far legs than in Broadway. The building would show we'll from the whole length of College street and would face the Sheffield scientific school at the opposite end of the street. Other great advantages are its elevated situation, with plenty of light and air, and su open exposure in the rear which can never be interfered with. The location is also at & reasonable dis tance from the present high school and in aquarter which is toward the principal direction of the city's growth at present and in the future. And last, but not least, it is historic site, for on this very spot the first settlers of New Haven landed, April 25, 1888. What nobler monument | than high school and training school | could be erected therei All these advan- | tages, 1t seems to me, render 1t far superior | to any other location that has bssu named PRO BoNo PUBLIco.

A CreoIe's Story of Butler.


 John R. Elder, who recently returned from trip to New Orleans, while speaking of General Benjamin F. Butler the other dsy, told the following story: "Bufler is still heartily hated there, but the hatred is not universal. have even heard some native Louisianians speak well of him, and there are numbers of local anecdotes concerning him which have not been in print that show that now and then he even went out of his way to do a gracious act. Among those who had reason to change their views Of Butler was 6 wealthy creole named Mas pereau, sugar merchant and banker. He did not go into the army but his sympa- taies were with the south When Butler took possession, MasPeTeau was greatly alarmed about his portable property. He ned great quantity of silverware which had been in tho family through several gem erattops. His sisters were also well SUD- piled with this metal. MAsperesu was sent for. He entered the presence of But Ter in fear and trembling Butler, in a stern voice, skked why he was sending his plate away, snd MaspsreAu told him for safety; that he didn't think 1t secure in New Orleans.
 "'Fou take that silver to the custom house, said Butler; ft shall never be said that property Is sent out of New Orleans for safety while General Butlsr is in com mand of this place
 "hssperesu, who told me this, said that he did 90, and the silver was fkken charge of and returned to him when quiet WAS re- stored"

 New York Letter in Washington Starl
 There is an aristocrscy of crime. You can behold 1t any fine afternoon on Broad way between Twenty-third and Thirty-sec. l ond streets. This portion of the great me tropolitsn thoroughfare is the chosen promenade of high grade criminals-the!r
 Rialto, where they customarily stroll and
 can be seen on the corners CT dropping in or out of saloons. Here they meet their professional brethren and hold confabuls-
 tions on sporting topics chiefly. No men | in New York are better dressed than they
 nor entertain greater respect for them
 felves apparently. With the gamblers and other persons about town who get their living at the expense of the community they are spt to bs on terms of hail fellow acquaintanceship, their actual occupation
 being known with certainty to few besides | the police detectives, who make no attempt | to interfere with them so long ss they are not down on MT. Byrnes' list as "wanted. !" These men represent the cream of their profession, finding always their headQusr-
 ters and fsvorite haunts in New York. They devote their attention to such higher
 branches of their special pursuit as swind- | ling in large way and the robbipg of
 banks. In their business the lines are
 sharply drawn respecting the kinds of
 criminslity in which a gentleman thief
 may probably engage. For example, the
 self-respectiDg bank burglar or "bank
 sneak" would never think of cracking a
 safe in s store. His enterprises are always
 conducted on 8 superior fcale, requiring great ingenuity and daring and with the expectation of gains in proportion. A pre- paration and e large outlay of money may producs fortune.

however, for Milan braid, while the mod els shown in the manilla and Belgian satin braids indicate the disposition to variety indulged by the mode for many seasons. But the rough and the fancy brsids will be very much worn. The new rough, mar TOW, purl edged braid, known as amour, appears in many hats as the crown, in con- junction with brim of plain braid, and many of the most dainty of the little bon nets are of this braid. Some of the most stylish hats seen in the late displays are in the wide, rough, partly -colored braids, and cashmere effects and mixture of brsids constitute characteristic feature of the spring millinery.
 The accompanying illustration presents 8 small bonnet for an elderly lady Its frame Is covered with canary colored silk and then the whole is trimmed with fine black lace. A peasant bow of velvet is placed in front, from which arises an aig- rette of peacock feathers. A quaint brooch set with gems Is fastened in the knot of the bow; the strings are velvet ribbon.

CHEAP WIT.

We can scarcely credit the article In the
Times last night, which comments on our
article In support Of the Mayors veto Of
the lighting contract, to the veteran edi-
tor OF that organ OF monopoly and caterer
to mopopolists. II breathes more OF the at
tempt OF "a cheap novice In its attempt at
wit. We opposed Mayor Brown last Fall
for election because Mr.. Robinson was
our party nominee and capable
man. That is no reason why we
cannot endorse any manly stand
taken by Mayor Brown In the
interest OF the city, whether he Is Repub-
lican or Democrat, and 1t is only the
cheapest kind OF cheap wit to attempt to
slur either the TRIBUNE or the Mayor to
foist upon the people thing they do not
want. The effort of the Times Is simply
to prejudice the members of the City
Council 80 that they will override the
Mayors veto In the interest of those rich
nonentities whom 1t always caters to.
1t is remarkable that none of those whom
IL favors ever dare to face q popular
vote. That would show the Times and
the nonentities what the general public
thinks OF them.
There is no question but that 1t will
take the city some time to equip its own
lighting plant, and the reason that the
city should do this is that it can do II
cheaper and save money. There Is not
town or city which furnishes lie own
light and water which Is not now doing
it cheaper than is done by cities which do
1t under contract. We challenge a denial.
We justify the Mayor and We do 1t be-
cause the price is too high and II the
Times will examine the figures II must
agree With rs II II can be honest.
The old contract with the Gas Com
pany stu holds good. The
price was set when II was made and the
agreement was that the Gas Company
should continue at the same price until
another contract was made This con-
tract still operates.
The trouble is that the Gas Company
has controlled and still does control, 9
sufficient plumber Of the city officials In
and out OF the City Council 80 that the
desire Of the public for q city plant and
lower prices has not been gratifed.
There is danger that such may continue
to be the situation for a time. But the
TRIBUNE intends to keep the mat.
ter before the public and until
both Democrats and Republicans alik,
understand this matter. We hav
no fear that the Gas Company will stol
lighting the city. That step would be
good thing for the people and woul
hasten the downfall Of the company. N
fear of that.
Statistics will be forthcoming whic
will satisfy the taxpayers on the relativ
cost OF city plant and the cost Of light
ing by contract.
Meanwhile the Mayor can rest assure
that the people now know where he is on
posed inside OF his own party.
