A MARROW ESCAPE.

Frank Bartholomew Dragged Under
 Wagon Truck on Bridge Street.
 An ugly accident, which might have re-
 suited seriously, happened yesterday morning
 to Frank H. Bartholomew, an employe of the
 carriage factory of Henry Hale 6 Go. While
 driving from the Old Line steamboat pier with one of the trucks used for transporting carriages, his horse became frightened and ran up Bridge street. When near East street Bartholomew had been thrown out and his clothing caught upon some part of the wagon. He was being dragged along on the rough cob ble stones in imminent danger of being crushed by the wheels or frightfully bruised. | The horse was finally stopped and word tele- | phoned to the precinct for the ambulance 1 Bartholomew's face was buried in blood and | it was thought he had been fatally injured. A physician was summoned and found that \ his nose was broken and twisted to one side. There was painful flesh wound and several | bruises about the body. Everybody was sur. prised to see the wounded man get up and
 say that he would drive along home and gel ! fixed up little. He had no idea of going te the hospital. He accordingly drove to hii home, 294 Hallock street. He says he ln | tends to go to work to day as usual.

.uonr LINE IMPROVEMENTS.

 A Double Track and Other Additions
 soon to De-Faster Time Wfl be
 Made.
 Many improvements are soon to be made on the Shore Line road. An important feature will be the building of $100,0O0 iron bridge at Lyme. This will be finished early in 1889. The increasing travel will peceesitate a second track before very long. When granite was needed for filling and building works, blasting began in g ledge vhare the second track would be laid. The road is now double tracked as far east as the bridge over Quinnipiae river in Fail Hayan. Fast time will be made when the $500 GOO bridge over the Thames is com \ pleted. The railroad ferry in present ust impedes travel greatly. Sometimes, in th' | case of heavy express train, it is twent, minutes after the train arrives from the wes | before it is loaded on the boat to be trans | ferred to the Groton side.s The time betweel | New Haven and New London will undoubt edIy be Quickened.

 min, Townsend, and Blakeslee. Others are still bearing the burden and heat of the day. The deceased was born in Watertown, April g, 1913, and married Isaiah A. Blakes- lee in 1882.
 Removing to New Haven MT. Blakesleel at the organization of the then Church street church, joined his fortunes with 1t and be came one of it's most Zealous members When at length it was decided to change and build the College street church, hi money and time were cheerfully given til his instant death, caused by fall while in | spectinR the building, June IA, 1o4S. Mrs. Blakeslee was thus left with fam1l, \ of four children, but her energy, industry ane \ economy enabled her 30 to care for and traii them that each in his places or Feslueucs and sphere is valuable citizen. The life of the deceased was busy, ,unself ish one. whether as identified with churcl | work or for her family and friends. In car ing for the sick che was thoughtful and skill 1 ful; the needy found in her friend ana helper. Her life to it's close was rounded ou | with useful activity The last ten years hay been chiefly divided between her childrel living in the West and at the East. Her las sickness was of about a months duration ! terminating with peritonitis Wednesday, No
