WEST POINT AND ANNAPOLIS.

The advantages of the training at
either of these academies are so unique
and the possible appointment 80 at
tractive, that at every examination IN
the district thirty or forty candidates
present themselves. Among these COM
petitors are some Of the finest specl-
mems of young manhood, both physlc-
alIy and mentally, and the winner or
the coveted honor deserves and receives
the heartiest congratulations.
At the recent examinations in June,
the successful candidates were Matthew
Thomlinson of East Haven and Curtis
p. Bassett of Milford. These young men
were prepared by George A. Booth and
Malcolm Booth, who are instructors Of
long and successful experience and well
known in this city, as both were for
merly connected with our public schools
for some years.
The Booth Preparatory school of
which George Booth is the principal,
and with which Malcolm Booth Is now
associated, has already taken high rank
among the preparatory schools of the
state. It Is an eminently practical
school where courses are adapted to the
need and aim of each student. This
adaptahiIity together with the system
of individual instruction make it a new
factor in modern and successful educa-
tional methods. The preparatory school
Is now entering upon it's fourth year,
and that it is an institution of the high
est order is shown by the results al
ready obtained.

Colombia, where Mr.. Hallams business
confined him closely. Miss Alice was
left behind In this country, and re-
manned here for eight years after the
departure Of the family. Not once dur
ing that time did she see any of them.
Finally, two years ago. after summer
in Stonington, she sailed for the south
and few months ago came the an
nouncement Of her engagement to DR..
Gellego
These have been troublous times in
Colombia. A revolution has been in
full swing and the people in the dis
tressed public have had something else
to think about besides love and mar
riage. DR.. Gallego as one of the best
surgeons in the country, has had his
hands full in attending to the sick and
wounded soldiers. and the wedding, in
stead Of being contaminated in the win
fer, as was intended, was necessarily
deferred little.
But that was not the only obstacle.
DR.. Gallego Is Roman Catholic and
Mrs. Gallego Is Protestant. He was
not willing to surrender his religion,
and she was just as anxious to cling to
hers Although she was several thou
sand miles from her old home, sur
rounded by Catholic influence, she did
not wish to sever her connection with
her former communion. In this elner-
gency the pope was appealed to for a
special dispensation and granted it, SO
that finally, after just enough trial and
tribulation to make the story interest
ing, the pair were welded on the 18th
Of last month by the Rev. DR.. Urbano
Alvarez and in the presence Of the no.
tary public.
DR.. Gallego is one of the best class Of
educated native Colombians and is said
to have been the most eligible of the
young men of his nationality in Honda.

SUPERIOR COURT BUSINESS.

The number of new cases which have
been returned to the civil side of the
superior court is over two hundred,
number much in excess of what the
usual business of the court has been.
The excess of writs is greatly due to
the many appeals from the assessments
made by the board Of assessors and the
refusal on the part Of the board Of relief
to reduce the same.
Ordinarily, the locked Of the superior
court on each day contains no more
than sixty cases. With the docket as it
will be prepared for the first Tuesday
Of September by Assistant John c. Cal
