prominent lawyer in the county and
 State, and for over twenty years has
 been the senior member of the law firm
 of filling, Webb and Warehouse. ne
 was the president of the New Haven
 County Bar Association for about fif- teen years, declining reelection in the fall of 1902. From 1871 until 1873 he acted as prosecuting attorney for the City of New Haven.
 In 1876 MT filling was married to Constance A. Parker, who died in 1903, and in January 1906, was married to Margaret Thompson, of Winnsboro, s. C.
 For many years MT filling has been general counsel for the Gas and Elec- tric association of Connecticut. He is director and counsel of the Merchants National Bank of New Haven, and of the United Illuminating Company. He has been president of the Security h. surance Company of New Haven, since October 10, 1906, having been director of the same company for over twenty years.
 MT filling assumes the duties as the third president in the entire life of the company. Acquainted as he IS with the methods and ideals of the late Mor- ris F. Tyler, he is fitted not only to broaden and increase the power of the service by the adoption of his own ideas, but to carry out and direct the work of completing the plans which had already been we'll started and carried along with such marked success.
 MT filling enters on his new duties with the enthusiasm that has always marked any work that he has ever un- dertaken, and the record that he has already made stands as guarantee ot | the result. As a director of the con- pany, he has for many years been closely in touch with the executive side of the business and has unconsciously been preparing himself for the position which he has been called upon to as- sume.
 His personal and professional reputa- tion in the State will unquestionably do much toward keeping the company in the position which it holds among the citizens of the State.
 The following quotation most admir- ably explains MT filings character: ''Mr Alling has manifested the same energy which belonged to him as student in college, and has attained more than ordinary prominence in his profession.

So much for Mr.. Hearst's physical

variance of opinion, even among the
men who are on Mr.. Hearsts payroll.

Cannon on Newspapers.
In the book mentioned above, the
author gives vent to some pessimistic
utterances regarding the newspapers
of the large cities of the country.
After a decade spent as a reporter and
editor on the great journals of New
York, Chicago, Kansas City and
| Omaha, he clothes himself in sack
cloth and bewails the mercenary
spirit that pervades the great
"mounlders of public opinion in the
great cities of the land.
Mr.. William Jennings Bryan, at the
recent dinner of the Associated Press,
also scoided the metropolitan press
severly, declaring that they had
sold their birthright for a mess OF
pottage." Nor is Mr.. Bryan alone,
among public men, in entertaining a
savage crouch against the New York
press. Speaker Cannon never mem
tons New York newspapers in the
presence of ladies. since the process
is always accompanied by profuse
profanity. In this correction, the
Washington correspondent of a New
York paper vouches for the following
story:
Speaker Cannon was entertaining {
party of Japanese journalists who arr
visiting this country.
DO the newspaper men of Nippol
operate the way ours do?' asked tn
speaker. do you write things tw,
ways at once that haven't happene'
