AN ASTONISHING AocrDENr.

The Draw to the QuinnIpIac Bridge
 Knocks Portion of a Pier and the
 Whole of Small Boy Into the
 Water.
 Fair Haven people were considerably ex- cited last night over an astonishing accident that occurred at the Quinnipiac drswbridge last night. George Graves was coming up the river in his sloop yacht Venus, having just returned from New York, where he had
 been to witness the Mayhower Galatea con- test The drawtender started to open the
 draw to let the yacht pass when Frank
 Chadeayne, the eleven year old son of George Chadeayne of Prospect street, stepped on to l the little square jog at the north side of the l west end of the bridge to wait until the l draw had opened. The draw in swinging 1 open struck the top of the abutmeut and in an instant the boy and the fagstones that covered the top of the pier, together with 8 ! large patch of iron railing, were precipitated | into the water twenty-five feet | below. The accident was so | singular and 30 unexpected that all who | witnessed it seemed paralyzed, as it were, for | an instant. All saw the engineer of the New York tugboat Sarah J. Weed, whose boat was lying at Konold's dock, about 200 feet l away. He sprang into the water without throwing of his clothes, and swan toward the lad. It was nearly low tide and the cur
 rent was sweeping fercely between the abut- 1 ments. The bold engineer managed to reach
 the lad, who had spent most of his time in the water under the surface, and holding him up with his hands he succeeded in reaching the spiles that line the center piece. These were covered with slime and the engineer could get no place to which to cling. For tunately Captain Graves had heard the cry of "man overboard,' and instruct ed Edson Bradley, who was with him in the yacht, to get into the small boat and see what the trouble was. Bradley and the boat came to the engineers assistance just in the nick of time. The boy was pretty thoroughly exhausted and somewhat the worse for the salt water he had swallow ed, but otherwise he was uninjured. The accident was caused by the settling of the center pier of the bridge. This pier, it will be remembered, is the one that gave the Selectmen so much anxiety few months ago and they spent 8 thousand dollars in putting it in repair.
 Experienced boatmen who have examined the pier say that unless it is fixed up in good shape the whole draw will fall down some day.
 The portion of the bridge knocked off con- sisted of patch of Tagging about six feet square and six inches thick

FIRE IN A SMOKEHOUSE.

A Blaze fin the Smokehouse of s. E.. Merwln q Co. Causes a Loss of Five Hundred Dollars.
 Fire broke out in the large smokehouse of s. E. Merwin & Co.,, situated in the rear of their store on State street near Chapel, at
 half-past four yesterday afternoon. The streets were soon crowded with people. Elm ployes of the firm discovered the fire and did some good work in endeavoring to quench it without calling out the fire department. It gained rapidly and an alarm was finally sent out from box 26. The department respond ed promptly, and soon had the blaze under control. At one time the blaze poured up the elevator shaft and looked threatening. There were about ,000 hams, shoulders and other pieces of meat in the building at the time the fire broke out. Many of them were damaged. The loss will amount to about $500 or $600, covered by insurance in North's, Kimberly's and other agencies.
