ARRIVAL. OF THE LAuRENTlAN.
A Summer vOyage-Wonderful Weather
A Steerage Passenger Detained.

The steamship Laurentian, of the AL
Ian line, arrived here Monday from Liv-
erpooI She reports very. remarkable
passage. They left the English Channel
in bad gale of wind week ago last
Saturday, but after day out the wealth
er changed and during the entire passage
across there was no heavy wind, a
smooth sea, and thermometer regis
tering from 40 to SO degrees above zero.
The day they arrived at Halifax it was
only 14above, the coolest day of the voy-
age. Although August and Septem Der
are considered the best months, some
times even then worse weather is en-
countered than on this remarkable WIN
ter voyage. South winds prevailed all
the time.
The Laurentian brought one cabin and
seven steerage passen gers for this port.
One of the latter, Russian Jew, named
David Meyer, bound for Portland, was
detained by immigration Inspector Fogg
because he had not sufficient personal
effects to qualify as an immigrant under
the law. She brought nearly $50 tons Of
cargo. The oranges, of which there were
$50 boxes, were on top, and came out
first, filing the great shed with their
fragrance. The cargo also included $40
casks of brandy, which is a good deal
when YOU stop to think of it.

he bought out Mr. Blair's interest in the
stock and afterward his interest in the
building and continued to carry on the bus
mess for many years under the 1fm name
of @. Houdlette & Co. His stock in trade

Der of years ago owing to poor health and
other reasons, he gave up the care of his

present proprietor. and retired from active
business. Since that time, his summers

almost from the beginning of the colony
there. he has owned cottage, and where
his familiar figure will be missed by the
older residents of the island.
In politics he was staunch Republican.
He was, too. Christian man and an earn
est supporter of the Methodist church in

has been failing. but being prepared, the
end was peaceful. He leaves widow.

WHAT DO YOU CALL IT?

The law says: "No person elected to the office of school visitor or town com mittee shall be employed as teacher in the town where he or she is school visit or town committee.
 If any school visitor or town commit tee shall be employed contrary to the provisions of the proceeding section, the office of school visitor or town commit- tee to which he was elected shall become vacant, and his successor shall be ap- pointed under the provisions of Section 2l2l of the general statutes"
 This law went into effect on the first day of August.
 At the annual meeting of the Sandy Hook school district held in June it was
 oted to instruct the committee to em- ploy the same teachers that were en- ployed during the last term of school. A similar vote was passed at the annual meeting of the Potahtuck district, held about the same time. T. J. Corbett was the principal teacher in the former district and W. J. Brew in the later, and both were at that time school visit ors in the town. It was understood that these teachers were anxious to hold their positions as teachers, and that the action of the districts settled the matter for the ensuing year. The other teach CTS considered themselves employed by the district. It is we'll known that teach CTS in the public schools generally are em- pleyed from year to year in such manner and that unless they resign they are se- cure in their office which simply contin- ues without further contract or bargain
 The very word employed" in it's com mon use signifies continued occupa- tion or office rather than the actual stated work done.
 The natural inference is that unless these two teachers, Corbett and Brew, resigned their positions previous to the first day of August, they ceased to be members of the Board of School Visit ors, at that time, by effect of the law.
 But these principal teachers of the largest schools in Newtown do not so hold and interpret the law.
 They claim that they are not employed as teachers until they enter the school houses and begin their work. Accord ingly they have presumed to act as mem- bers of the Board of School Visitors, on several occasions in August, and even as late as September 2, and probably, as visitors, still later, and for all we know may continue to act on Saturdays and holidays and during vacations when they are not teaching, on the same principle.
 What do you call it? What would the Superior court call it? What would any law-abiding citizen call it? What would these educators themselves call 1t should they ever instruct the children in practical patriotism and the commer- cial value of common honesty?
 What would the average boy or girl of the higher departments of our public schools call it?
 It is supposed that these two unem- ployed as teachers and school visitors be- gan to be employed as teachers about 9 o'clock 8. m., last Monday.-IO. o. Wright.

THE MITCHELL PARSONS CASE.
IN THE PROBATE COURT BEFORE JUDGE
 BRADLEY,

IN HE ThObAIh SoUhI bEfOhE JUDuE
 BRADLEY.
 The case of D. Nj. M itchell, executor on the estate of Elizur Mitchell, against Charles Nj. Parsons, executor on the es- tate of Nellie K. Parsons, occupied the attention of the Probate court on Satur- day. The claim of Mr Mitchell was that Mir Parsons AS executor on the estate of his wife had returned an inventory of but $S9, and that she had property at the.. time of her death amounting to $l0,000 or $12,00 It appears that the late Elizur Mitchell on December 29, 1885, loaned his granddaughter, Nellie E. Parsons, 5000, with the understand ing that Parsons was to deed the proper ty where he lived to his wife, which he did. Executor Mitchell testified sub- stantially to the above. He also testi- fled that Ms Parsons came over to her grandfather's and talked about the note. That Elizur Mitchell said he could not give her dollar unless she had deed. That the deed was made out as Elizur AnlbNbSil 1'HdCSbCQy anu Llldb uG ldu IU security beside the note. Executor D. M. Mitchell also testified that between January 1887 and January 1892 he paid to Nellie k. Parsons, and the guardian of her children $7,59l ,9l. That he knew she owned 9 share of Pennsylvania railroad stock. He further testified that the late Mrs Parsons was legatee un- der the Elizur Mitchell will for about $EO,OO0, and that in the event of her death this property would go to her heirs.
 Mrs Esther Mitchell, the mother of the late Nellie K. Parsons, testified that her daughter wrote to Elizur Mitchell asking for 5000. That his reply was that he would not give it to her unless her husband would convey to her 8 deed of the house and land with the privilege of the water supply to the house. That when she was IS years old her grandfather gave her 20 shares of Pennsylvania railroad stock and before she was 2l had added five more shares. She further testified that Mrs Parsons had $l0O in the Ansonia bank and that she knew of her having money in the Newtown savings bank. That before her death her daughter had told her she had larger bank account than ever.
