Equal to the Best.
 Branford, April 1.-The Branford Park association this morning placed a force of men at work on their driv- ing track which is located in the cen ter of level park, about a mile and a half east of Branford Center. It is a mile track and when finished it is said that it will be second to none, not excepting Mystic. Charter Oak or Hampden parks. At present more than two-thirds of the track has been leveled and prepared.
 The Branford Park association is in- corporated under the laws of Connecti- cut and capitalized for $1O,000. This is divided into shares of $5, large DOT ton of which has been taken up by owners of fast horses in Branford, Stony Creek, Guilford and New Haven. Several New Haven gentlemen are con- templating membership in the associa- tion, among them being William Nicely and D. s. Gamble.
 The Park association is intimately connected with the Branford Agricul- tural society, many members of one being also members of the other. The two bodies will hold the feature of the year in agricultural and trotting cir cles at the new track September 26 and 27, when the agricultural fair will be held The park affords an excellent place for such an event and the fair exhibits will be placed in the center of the track, while racing will take place around the grounds.

The Campus Letter Carrier Charged With
 Infraction of the Rules.

The Campus Letter Carrier Charged With Infraction of the Rules.
 Joseph Wipper, one of the letter car
 riers connected with the postoffice, and l familiarly known to college students as Joe the Postman," has been sus- pended by Postmaster Beach pending 1 instructions from Washington relative
 to certain irregularities regarding the distribution of mail on his route. There | is nothing of a dishonest character charged against MT. Wipper, but an infraction of the rules Is alleged
 The suspension took place Saturday
 night, MT. Wipper being informed of it through letter written by Postmaster
 Beach. Yesterday morning MT Wip-
 per had conference with the postmas-
 ter regarding the matter and made an explanation. Just what the explana- tion was MT. Beach declined to say.
 It appears that the postmaster dis covered large number of undelivered letters in the desk occupied by MT. Wipper which had been received as far back as last December which, under the postof1ce regulations, is not all lowed. MT. Wipper is the carrier who uellVeTS Ildll at Lne COleB6S ana It IS said that the mail which he had not delivered belonged to students and oth- CTS connected with the college.
 The reason why the letters were not delivered, it is claimed, is that Carrier Wipper received instructions from the parties who were about to leave the city to withhold their mail until their return, which he did, and it was this mail which was found. It was stated that carrier had no right to retain the mail in his possession without a written order from the owners of the mail and this MT. Wipper had not re- ceived and furthermore had not noti- fled the postoffice officials that he held such mail, which is also contrary to rules. . When the letters were found therefore, Postmaster Beach could do nothing else than suspend the carrier and report the matter to Washington. The postmaster said yesterday he de- sired it understood that MT. Wipper had been thoroughly honest and there was not man in the postoffice whom he would sooner trust.

Before she could SWdllOW LIle COuleNLS IIle dIUelluelLl turned about, and taking in the situa- ton at a. glance sprang to the bedside and wrested the bottle from Mrs. Wal pins hands.
