SAD DROWNING ACCIDENT.


 Last Friday afternoon Arthur Cook, aged 19, was drowned while bathing in the Underwood pond. Deceased was a son of Stephen A. Cook, Jr., of Providence, and @ student at Brown University. He was visiting with his aunt, Mrs. J. E. Under wood. He was an excellent swimmer, but was probably seized with cramp, and his companions, who heard his cries for help, did not regard them as serious until it was too late to give him assistance. He was an only son, and the sad news went to his father at Rocky Point on Friday by tele- graph.
 Hartford Times The Galignani Mes senger, Paris paper, announces the death in that city on June of Mrs. Elizabeth C.. Hicks, wife of Ratcliff Hicks. The burial was in Le Pecq cemetery, where many Americans are buried, on Friday, June 28. The funeral service was conducted by Rev. Dr. Morgan, of the American church, and was largely attended by her friends. MT. and Mrs. Hicks have spent their sum- mers in Europe for many years past, MT. Hicks, as president of the Candee rubber works, of Bridgeport, combining business with pleasure. Mrs. Hicks was daugh- ter of MT. Candee, and before her mar. riage to MT. Hicks was the widow of the late Wilbur Parker, son of the late Mr. Charles Parker, of Meriden gun fame. She leaves three children, two Parker young men, and little Hicks girl, years old Mrs. Hicks had quite fortune. He1 death was caused by heart failure.

ROCKVILLE.

A fouf-story wooden building at Rock vile, owned by G. M. Paulk and occupied by J. J. Began as storehouse for wool and waste, was burned on Saturday afternoon. The fire probably caught from spark from New England road engine and spread so rapidly that all effort to put it out was useless. By the tune it was under control there was not much left to burn. Other buildings near by were in great danger but were saved by the fremen. The building was valued at $9, ,00O and was insured for $2 ,5OO. In it was stock valued at $20,000, on which was partial insur- ance. Wells Symond's house, adjoining the building, caught fire, but was soon extinguished. MT. Symonds estimates his loss at $100, which is mainly on broken furniture and damage to fruit trees. It was quite close call for the Leader office, which is located in the next building to the Symond's house. The files were re- moved and arrangements made to move out if necessary.

| A. s. PARKER Local Editor and Business Manager 1 of Coventry Local Register. I There is a story current hereabout that many years ago in time of drouth a man offered prayer in public for rain, and the fall was in excess of his expectation so much that when an acquaintance remark ed on the answer of the prayer he said, 'Well, we got the rain, but think rath- CT overdid the matter" Now to the ap- plication. A few weeks ago we were having delightful weather, when we noticed in the Journal an item from good deacon that the weather was unfavorable for the thick growth of grass almost immediately the change came, and in forty-two days twen- weight have been rainy, and we would suggest that the correspondent previously mentioned make public note of the need of drying weather to cure the fine crop of grass.
