The Local Association Wants No Hand
book This Year.
The directors of the local Retail Mer-
chants association met yesterday
morning and passed the following vote:
Voted, That the New Haven Retail
Merchants association has authorized
no one to solicit advertisements for any
handbook or other publication what
ever, discountenance the practice of
such methods of advertising, and warns
any and all persons against using the
associations name for such purposes.
The action of the board is said to
have risen from the canvass an out of
town firm is making for 'advs" among
the merchants. This firm is the one
which published hand book of mer-
chants last year and secured many
paying "advs." The association deriv-
ed no benefit from the scheme. This
year the manager offered a premium to
the association when they found that
the scheme would be opposed by the
board of directors.
H. II. Guernsey and F. z. HUM were
appointed a committee to see that the
associations name was not used by the
managers of the scheme

GOING no HARTFORD.

a Prominent New Haven Scot Appointed
Professional and Instructor of Hartford's
New Golf Club.
The golf craze has at last struck the
capitol city. A club has been formed
by some of it's leading and enterprising
citizens and grounds secured which will
make, if properly laid out, a splendid
course. Our correspondent, while in
Hartford last week, went over the
ground with the new professor, and
from his intimate knowledge of the
game and long connection with some of
the best clubs in Scotland gives his
opinion that the land is admirably sit
uated and will make what he considers
a very fine inland course. The club is
to be congratulated on its selection OF
Mr. James Brown of this city as pro-
fessional and instructor. Mr.. Brown,

like the majority of all good golfers, is
Scotchman. and takes to the game
much the same as duck does to water.
He began his golling career ON the
Luffness links, where he started in
while quite a youngster, as ''caddie,"
Not content with carrying clubs and
seeing others play, he through time dis
carded the mental occupation of cad
die, and became a member of the club,
and within very short space of time
got to be one of the best and foremost
players on the course. Knowing the
game as he does, from A to z, his SER
vices to the Hartford club in laying out
their links and thereafter in learning
the novice how to play the royal and
ancient game, ought to be Invaluable,
and we have no doubt under his SUI
perintendence of golf in the capitol city
will make rapid strides.

al children, countless folk in this and
other lands who were intimates in more
active years, and the great New Eng
land literary group with whom she is
naturally ssociated-Longfelow EN-
erson, Whittier, Lowell, and finally, her
good friend, DR.. Holmes, the last leaf
upon the tree"-all these and others yet
again await her. One feels that wheth-

or there. with the companions of her
main strength and mightiest work, all
is well with Americas foremost and be-
loved woman of letters.
