Sweet Pea No, Royal Choice.

In vain did gardeners and horticul- turists in England try to push the claims of the sweet pea as a corona ton flower Queen Mary has decided that the pink carnation is the blossom she will carry.
 The Windsor, which is deep pink, is the carnation she particularly fav- ors. but the Lawson, cerise carna- tion: the Enchantress, which Is pale pink. and the Mrs. Joliffe. which Is sal mon pink, will also be fashionable du- ring the season. The Worshipful Con- pany of Gardeners have begged to be allowed to present the coronation bou- quet and the queen has agreed to ac- cept 1t from them, so they will keep the rarest and most perfect Windsor carnations obtainable for the royal bouquet.

 One of her reasons for preferring the carnation to the sweet pea as the flower to be used Is that the weather will probably be very warm at the time of the coronation and the sweet pea fades very easily. while the car nation does not droop in the heat

TAKES S53,2O0
 OFF TAX LIST
Judge Holcomb Clips Assess inert of Convent in Milford
SCHOOL PROPERTY EXEMPT
Assessors of Town Put Valuation of s5e, 400 on Educational Association Court Declares Only S6,2oo
 Legally on Grand List.

New Haven.-As result of the de cision handed down in the Superior Court by Judge Holcomb, the sum of S5S, 200 is stricken of the grand list of the town of Milford. When the assessors of that town made up their list they placed valuation of $59,400 against the property of the St Bridget Convent Association. The convent peo- pie objected to the assessment, and, failing to get relief from the town, they carried the fight to the Superior Court The convent officials claimed that the property which they held was used for educational purposes, and that it was connected with the school which the association conducted in Milford On this ground exemption was claimed under the law which pro vides that schools and property used for that purpose shall be exempt from taxation. The town presented its claim against the property and the case was heard some time ago. Judge Holeomb ruled that all the property which was used for school purposes was exempt under the law, and in his decision found that of the total prop erty S53,200 was used for that purpose and so was exempt. The remainder of the property, valued at S6,200, re- mains on the grand list. It consists of several cottages. which. the court decided, were not used for educational purposes.
