Shortly after O'Clock, Monday night, two
small boys were arrested in Hartford, while
driving horse and sleigh, and taken to the
station house; they gave their names as Geo.
and Willie Brack and their respective ages at
IA and II years Soon after their arrest a
telegram was received at the police station
announcing that team answering to the de-
scription of the one the boys were driving had
been stolen by two boys in Harwinton. When
this was told to them the boys confessed that
they had gone to the stable of Mrs. Hayden
in Harwinton and had themselves hitched the
horse to the sleigh and driven to Hartford.
About two weeks ago the same boys stole
$25 from their father aud ran away but were
captured in Manchester and taken back. They
gave as reason for their last theft that they
wanted a sleigh-ride. They were sent back
ia Hvwinton, on Tuesday

every effort was made to rescue him, he ap-
peared to lose all presence of mind and was
drowned. 1t seemed that Churchill, another
STUDENT who narrowly escaped the same fate,
was the first to break through The other
students, including Smith, went for a boat
which was drawn up on shore close at hand.
With the help of this they rescued Churchill,

time, but was very much chilled Oars were

wind had broken the ice out of the lake above
