Governor, Mayor, Professor, Editors and Business Men Unite to Honor the
 x-Mayor.
GOOD FEELING FOR MARTIN
Republicans and Democrats Unite in Wishing Him the Best of New Haven Adminis-
 trations.

On the cover of the menu used at the big Stydley dinner held at Harmonic hall last evening in honor of the for mer mayor there was a we'll executed cut showing the tower of the New Ha- ven city hall In front of it there was large key with the significant inscrip- tion: John P. studley, 1so1-1so7." That we'll expressed the feelings, the en- thusiasms and the speechmakng at the big banquet, which was attended by fully two hundred of the representa- tive political, business and educational men of the city--for the keynote of everything was "Studleyism,r if such corruption may be allowed. The ex- mayor was the key to the situation. scan. it from whatever viewpoint one might.
 Now good digestion wait on appetite. And health on both,"
 appropriately quoted the: envelope in which the menu was enclosed. The ap- petites were the first consideration, the first to be appeased. Any wishes for oratory and for nearing laudatory eplgrams about the man who praced the chair of mayor in this city for so long came later
 You're welcome If weary, thrice well
 come if gay,
 Come. be bright and cheery and join
 In the play
 Such was the saying that met all eyes at the top of the list of the good things to eat But, by the end of the evening. there were none who were weary. All were gay, bright and cheery and, above all, all were imbued with even greater admiration for the guest of honor of the evening than they had ever had before after they had heard a governor, mayor, college professor, two editors, and two presi- dents of business organizations unite. one in all, in the undivided praise of John P. Studley.
 The hall had been tastefully decorat- ed with greens and flags. An orches- tra added zest to the occasion, sending forth the latest of metropolitan song successes from behind a large bank of palms arranged across the stage.
 The menu follows:
 Grape Fruit au Maraschino. Celery Olives. Salted Almonds. Cream of Celery au Croutons Souffie. kennehec Salmon Hollandaise Sauce.
 Parisienne Potatoes.
 Sweetbreads Bernaise

He said 1t had been his observation that no man had ever been mentioned more than he himself for the office of mayor of New Haven. but he had al- ways noticed that 1t was invariably after the nominations were all over. Thus he felt he was there last night in the position of a sort of deputy mayor. Many things he said. he could say about Mayor Studley He said he had noticed the great activities of the democrats in getting up the dinner. It was probably because of their delight that he was at last out of their way He looked forward to the reverse sIt-
