 "".'Why, look here, you ship jump ing scoundrel,' said the executive of ficer, heatedly, to the equally heated Mike the milkman, how do you have the impudence to look me in the eye and claim that don't know you, after I put in three years with you on the Mediterranean station and a year and half in these waters? Pull up your sleeve, you reprobate, and show me that tattooed dagger on your right forearm.

THE OLD ACADEMY BUILDING IN
 3RANFORD.

The old academy building in Bran ford, which occupies a picturesque spot on the public park in that town, is one of the quaintest features of the Shore Line region. The two-story structure with an ancient type of dome, cannot be duplicated in Connecticut as a relic of the past. Even the panes of glass, having survived century at least are Mosaic in their. way. The building is painted white and at first sight sug- gests the plainness and simplicity of the early fife of New England. At the present time the structure is owned by the Masonic lodge in Branford and is used by that body for it's regular com munications.
 An interesting fact in connection with the old academy is that Judge Lynde Harrison, of New Haven, began his ca- reer there forty years ago or more as principal, teaching while he was pre- pairing for the bar. After he had been admitted to practice he was invited by Judge Parsons, of the old Branford lock works, to open a law office in the town, passing from the principalship of the academy to the position of legal ad- wiser to the judge and his business friends and associates.
 Judge Harrison went to the civil war in the Twenty-seventh Connecticut and on returning from the service entered into politics, having an exceptional ap- titude for that line of activity. He went to both branches of the general assem- ply from Branford amid the honors and years that have fallen to his lot. He has the happiest of memories of the old academy ill Branford.
 Judge Harrison will leave New Haven in few days for Thonasville, Ga, where he will spend the winter.

Prices To Get Even.

Several speakers at the meeting OF
the Retail Butchers & Grocers associa-
tion last night scored certain whole
sale butter dealers who had added i
CEN a pound to the price of the butter
sold by them because the association
had undertaken to compel the whole
salers to give full weight when selling
butter to the retailers.
Secretary John A Burt was instruct
ed TO write TO the wholesalers accused
Of boosting the price of butter and ask
them to explain their action, and say
whether they were trying to get even
with the members of the association
for forcing them to give full weight
packages or had some other reason.
The bill of Senator Bamberger pro-
viding for attaching and garnisheetnG
the salaries of state. county and city
officials and employees who do not pay

troll of the company through a move

declared himself as unqualifis dIy in ia

sisting. however. that this should and
must be brought about in a dignified.
orderly and just manner. Further.
that the board OF trustees should b.
come directly responsible 10 the policy
holders for the management of the
company rather than the control should
pass to the executive officers through
the Obtainment in their own names of
the proxies of the policy holders.
THE gist of the entire controversy is
this: Mr.. Alexander and his associates
desire to secure control of the com
pany and elect a board of trustees of
their own making; those opposed to
Mr.. Alexander insist that IL the policy
nOtQcrS participate IN the cOllEOt they
