At a meeting of the Board of Direc- tors of the Southern New England Telephone Company held on January
 2S, in New Haven, John w. filling of that city was elected president of the company to succeed Morris F. Tyler.
 Mir filling is especially fitted to take up the work as the head of the com pany on account of his intimate knowl- edge of the business and his associa- tion with it for many years, both as Di- rector and as its General Counsel. He is thoroughly informed as to the finan- cial side of the business, being partic- ularly we'll versed in this phase of telephony not only in Connecticut, but over the entire country. During large part of the past year, MT filling acted as chairman of the Special Committee appointed by the late President Tyler.
 Mir filling was born in Orange, Conn.,, October "A, 1S41, being the son of Charles w. and Lucy A. filling. He was educated in the district and high schools of the town of Orange and attended the Wilbraham Academy in Massachusetts. He was graduated from Yale in 1862 as salutatorian of his class. He studied at the Yale Law School and was admit ted to the bar of New Haven County in 1864. Since that time he has been a

ing little and getting less. Most things
he can do without and does but there
is one thing which he cannot and will
not try to deny himself-grand opera
of the home brand. He does not re-
gard it as luxury; for him it is a
necessity. That Is what makes Italian
opera such good business in New
York that its two foremost promoters,
Giulio Gatti-CasaZZa and Cleofonte
Campanini. are employed by our rival
opera houses to boom 1t for all 1t Is
worth.
That the opera going habit is con-

try to do business as If it were only
acquired and might easily be modified

been an Italian long enough to know

Is convinced now that such Is the case.

year Giovanni was brought to keen
realization Of the fact that the good
old Sicilian custom Of keeping ones
employees at work as long as II can
be made profitable regardless Of time
and tire has not yet taken root in this
country.
When the opera season opened the
padrone was confronted by dolega-
