SUPPLEMENTARY LETTER.


Sent to Mayor studley by Secretary
G. G. Morris.
Still another letter in the protest Of
the Connecticut Civil Service Reform
association against the appointment Of
Samuel ]. We'll as clerk of the local
civil service commission was received
yesterday by Mayor Studley.
The text Of the letter follows:
New Haven. July is.
To His Honor. John P. StudleE, Mayor
of New Haven.
Dear Sir:-Permit me to acknowledge
the receipt Of your favor Of the 9Th
inst. and to ask you to excuse my de-
lay in replying, which caused by the
difficulty OF getting our committee to-
gether in the vacation season.
The statement to which your sques-
ton refers was based upon letter
written by Mr.. James d. Dewell, jr.,
and published in the Register Of May
"a. 1t appears from the letter that Mr..
Dewell was nominated by Mr.. Well as
chairman Of the republican convention
held in this city, while the final APP
pointment of Mr.. We'll as secretary of
the civil service board was pending,
and while he was acting under tenn
porary appointment. 1t cannot have
escaped your honor's observation that
the honor of nominating the presiding
officer Of a political convention. espe-
eial1y when 1t was known there was a
contest impending, is customarily Civ
en- to a person known to be supporter
of the nominee. The nomination could
not have been made without activity
on the part of Mr. Well, and that ac-
tivity was exerted in the interest OF Mr..
Dewell, since he himself refers in his
communication to such nominations as
an honor.
The reference to Mr. Dewell's rela-
tons to Mr. Well in our communication
was, however, purely Incidental, and
the fact that this Incidental reference
should be the only part Of our state
ment which has thus far been public
~ questioned BY any member Of the
civil service board would make Mr..
DewelIs letter appear like an attempt
to divert your honor's attention from
our main, point. which is that the APP
pointment of Mr.. We'll was partisan
appointment, made originally In disre-
gard OF the letter of the charter, and
subsequently confirmed in violation Of
its spirit
We are not attacking persons, but a
policy. For we believe it detrimental
to the public service, and compromising

a little Paxtine on your tooth brush
and use it; it will make your teeth
pearly white and harden your gums. Z
If you have a sore throat Paxtine
will quickly cleanse and heal it.
If your feet get tired, ache, swell,
smart and burn, Paxtine will cure and
overcome this tendency.
Paxtine will cleanse the nasal pas
sages and cure all catarrhal troubles.

prevents and cures all eruptions of the
skin, and keeps it in sweet and heal
thy condition.

MILFORD.

DR.. John Lester of Brooklyn, well
known in Milford, was guest Sunday
of Hon. and Mrs. D. p. Merwin.
There was one balloon ascension at
Walnut Beach Sunday afternoon, and
then Selectman Ford arrived on the
scene and stopped all further arrange
ments which were being made for;
another ascension later in the day.
There were about 1000 people in the
grove to witness the affair, and they.
remained for several hours for the pur-
pose of seeing another exhibition. Fin
ally speech by the manager explained
the situation, and the crowd quickly
dispersed.

Mrs. Ernest Langner's health has not

her away to sanitarium, where it is
hoped that rest and quiet will in time
restore her former good health.
Early Sunday morning there was a
serious automobile accident on the Pond
Point road. Charles e. Burton Of New
Haven with three friends were on board
the machine. The auto took fire from
the boilers and was mostly destroyed,
nothing but tangled mass of old scrap
iron marking the place of the accident.
and really the only bit of value is a
rubber tire The auto belonged to the
Holcomb co. of New Haven. The men
were thrown out and the sidelight
being crushed, set fire to the gasolene
which escaped from the tank under the
hood. The men scrambled away from
the machine and endeavored to locate
some one to help them, but being in an
uninhabited spot the best they could
do was to let the machine burn. The
accident occurred about one-quarter of
mile south Of the trolley tracks and
about one and one-half miles west of
Woodnont The blaze was seen from
Woodmont, and the party was taken to
Woodmont and then returned to New
Haven. The Holcomb Co. sent another
machine to take the chauffeur back to
New Haven.
