NEW LONDON DEER
 WALLETS M'CANN,
 OF BASEBALL FAME
Former Bridgeport Manager Says He's Always Get
 ting Into Accidents.

New London, June 21.-The monday sun was beaming on the just and un- just in this city yesterday when a, buck deer with melancholy eyes wan dered past the Hotel NTohican' where the beaux and belles of the summer colony were sipping their tea and cakes. The deer paused in front of a millinery store window in which the summer styles on display so enraged his sense of good taste that he crashed through the plate glass and landed on a two cylinder turban.
 The sound of falling glass caused a mob scene to ensue in the placid thor oughfare Gene McCann, the hero of many battles on the baseball field, led the charge F1ecking the dust from his patent leather pumps he tried to make a date to meet the deer some where else but the browsing animal said, sSir, how dare you speak to me?'' A number of other eligible males who heard something about a, deer, thought it was a deer spelled another way, and they dashed to the rescue, only to turn away in appointment. It re- uq1ired the services of two policemen to get the deer away from the foliage on the hats and kill the ,Inimal.
 When interviewed later McCann said he was always getting mixed up in ac- cidents. Didn't he fall in the bathtub

MAYOR EXPRESSES PLEASURE AT THE
 ELECTION RESULT

''I voted for the five commissioner form of commission government" but personally prefer the city man ager plan because I believe it not on- Iy simpIif1es matters but it is more economical. Because of the ques- ton involved had hoped there would be larger vote but considering that it was a special election I am well pleased at the numbers who went to the polls"
 Asked as to when the commission form of government would be put in to effect in Bridgeport Mayor Wilson answered.:
 stI don't know. you must see the city attorney on that. The matter is now terpret the meaning of the resolution which the voters passed on.
 cit is my desire and I believe the desire of every alderman that steps be taken to bring about the drafting of a charter along the lines of a five commissioner plan as soon as the city attorney may advise as right and proper from a legal standpoint
 Other than to disclose that the vote on the commission form of- govern nent was the fu1hl1ment of the pre- election promise of the Republican party, the mayor had nothing to say in the matter.
 Just how soon commission form of government can be established in this city, the members of the Commission Form of Government league do not know. Just now the president, James A. Marr, is studying the home rule bill which is in effect August 1st- He desires to determine whether the com mission form may be instituted after an e1etcion this fall or whether it will be necessary to name a charter re- vision committee and ask the next session of the legislature to approve the plan.

SCHOOL HOUSE AT OLD MILL GREEN
 NOW IS SALOON
Extra Bartenders on the Job To Help Quench Thirsty
 Throngs.

Old Mill Green schoolhouse near the intersection of Boston avenue and Pembroke street, is now a saloon in HalIett Street, made so as a. result of the increased industry in the East End, caused by the expansion of the Remington Arms-U. M. c. Co. In the last six weeks. four new saloons have been. established in the neigh borhood of the Arms Works and four other saloons that were scarcely maldhA1 1jaxpehaas, AEG n652 reaping profits, hauled in by extra bartenders who are rushed by the increased business.
 The increase in the population of Bridgeport will be the inspiration for the establishment of a new lodging house, three blocks from the Reming- ton Armory. 4 four story building at Hal1ett and StiIIman streets owned by James Rawley will be converted into the Hotel Hauett, and almost 50 rooms will be devoted to lodgings. An attempt is being made to get a saloon license transferred there.
 The monday crowds in upper Hal lett street saloons are so large that lines form at the left and nearby resi- dents have to@vait minutes before they can get to the bar That was the testimony of witnesses at a hearing be- fore the county commissioners this morning when a renonstrance against the application or H.

Paris, June 21-The French war of flee this afternoon issued a statement on the progress of hosiIities, reading as follows:
 ''In the sector to the north of Arras we yesterday made further progress in the direction of souchez by occupa- ton of several trenches and by draw ing near to the northwest side of the village.
 There was an artillery engagement which lasted all night long near Dom piere, which is to the west of Pronne An attack on the part of the enemy, which had been preceded by the ex- pIosion of three mines, was stopped short by the fire of our artillery and our infantry. On the heights of the Mouse, in the sector of CaI1one trenches we maintained all our gains in spite of a counter-attack of great violence delivered at o'clock in the morning.
 ''In Lorraine, near Rei11on, we have followed up our advantages. The en- tire first line of the enemy has been occupied by us along a front of 1,50O yards. At the end of the day a strong enemy column endeavored to deliver a counter-attack but was dispersed. French accommodating parties have reached the vicinity of ChaseIIes, the enemy having abandoned this ground. All the German trenches occupied by us are found to be full of bodies. We took about twenty prisoners.
 Tn the vicinity of Mount Bon homne, in the Vosbes, we have taken by assault the eastern spur of Mount Calvary, made progress on the neigh boring hills and gone as far as the approaches to the village of Bon homme
 we continued to make progress in the valley of the Fecht and we have gone beyond the cemetery of MetzeraI.

COMMISSION PLAN
 BOOSTERS FAIL TO
 GATHER AT ROOMS


 There was no meeting to-day of the Commission Form of Government league although a gathering to con sider the situation following the vote of Saturday had been arranged for 1O:30 to-day in the board of trade rooms in the Newfield building. Only six members of the league put in an appearance and as there was a com mittee meeting of the board of trade in progress in the rooms, it was con sidered advisable to postpone the meeting until some time later in the week. E.. L. Graves was one of those who came to attend the meeting. He said President James A. Marr of the association would set a later date for it.
 ttI guess the members were so well worn out with their efforts last week that they are resting on their oars now,' said he. "I am more pleased with this vote than with anything else that has happened in Bridgeport in a long time. It shows that the people will arise to the occasion when they believe a cause is right"

GRADUATION WEEK
 AT YALE STARTS
 WITH MANY FETES

{ New. Haven, June 21-CIass day at Yale embraced exercises on. the campus of the Sheffield Scientific school and the college campus by the academic graduating class, the bus mess meeting in the alumni advisory board, gatherings of the various re- union classes, and later in the day the law and medical school anniversary exercises. While the participants in these many and varied functions of the commencement period at the University yearly change the, pro- grams follow general lines of pre- ceding years.
 At the Sheffield class exercises held in the open air on Hillhouse ave- nue, the oration was made by Charles T. Neal, Jr., of Buffalo, N. Y., the prophecy read by William H. Swee- ney, of St. Paul, Minn., and the his tory of the class traced by Thomas A. Connors, of New York City, At the exercises of the academic class, the oration was by Edwin A. Burtt of New Haven, the poem by Arch. ibaId MacLeish, of Glencoe, Ills, and the class history by Charles A. Merz, of Sandusky, O.
 The principal address to the class at the law school was by Francis Francis Joseph Swayze, justice of the supreme court of New Jersey, on the subject t@The Growing Law In the course of his address Judge Swayze pointed out the manifold changes in the written law and in the interpre- tations attributing this to the new force which has come to the front in the past forty years and which he said might become predominant In conclusion he said:y
 faThe courst must always be the tribunals which put legal principles to the final and practical test, for the law is not only a science but an art and the dangers of academic discus sion can be avoided by submitting the theories of the closest to the test of practical experiment.
