Joseph Cannon Killed BY the Cars While
Stealing a Ride.
Joseph Cannon of Willimantic, aged
IS, was struck by the white train Satur-
day evening, near Phelps crossing, and
Instantly killed. He had boarded a
freight train east with the intention of
riding to the steep grade near the
Phelps crossing, when the speed would
be reduced sufficiently to allow him to
jump off. He jumped just as the white
express was approaching at high rate
of speed. 1t struck him almost before
he touched the ground. He did not go
under the wheels, but the force of the
blow was such as to terribly mutilate
IKE body.
w. E. Avery, nineteen years old, of
Vernon Center, met with fatal acct
dent at Oakland yesterday. He was
riding horseback from his home to
Wetherstield, and when near the bridge
at Oakland, a COW broke from the

animal SHE'D and fell and Avery was
thrown off. His head struck the rail-
ing of the bridge and his horse fell on
him, lying in that position for two or
three minutes. Avery lay unconscious
in the road for two hours and half
before doctor could be brought to the
scene. Avery's skull is fractured and
death is hourly expected.

Hungarian Immigrant in That City
May Bring the Cholera.
BRIDGEPORT, Sept. 5.-The greatest ex-
element prevails in this city. Last
night it leaked out that an immigrant
from the disease infested steamer Mora
via has been in this city for the past
three days. Investigation proved the
truth of the statement.
The immigrant is Annie Ayash, a
Hungarian, seventeen years old.
Through an interpreter she said that
she came to this country on the steamer
Moravia, which reached New York last
Tuesday. She came on to this city
the following Thursday. Twenty per-
sons died on the voyage from what she
called the black death. She is now iv-
ing at 131 Willard street.
The health board is making strenuous
efforts to meet the cholera if it should
ever reach this city. All the cesspools
will be cleaned out and the sewers and
catch basins will be thoroughly flushed.

Two Days of CelebratIon-workm Turn
Out Ten Thousand Strong.
BROOKLYN, Sep. 5.-The Labor Day
festivities in this city are being conduct
ed on a more elaborate and extensive
scale than ever before, occupying two
days instead of one. The first of the ex-
ercises commenced yesterday afternoon,
when picnic was held at the Ridgewood
Colosseum. The day was pleasant and an
immense crowd was present.
The picnic has always been held form
erly at Ridgewood Park, but owing to
unforeseen circumstances the committee
was compelled this year to take the Col
osseum. The park was hardly large
enough to accommodate the people.
The most important part of the cele-
bration was the parade, which took place
this morning at 1890. There were over
10, 200 men in line, which included Al or
CARNATIONS.
The first division was composed Of car
penters, members of the Kings County
District of the United Brotherhood of
Carpenters and Joiners of America, and
turned out $500 strong. The building
trades were particularly we'll represented
this year, for besides the carpenters, the
plumbers, 500 strong, and the laborers,
300 strong, turned out
The sixth division was composed en-
tirely of shoemakers of both this city and
New York. The men are so elated over
the victorious ending of nearly all their
troubles in shops in both cities that they
turned out to man. Over 1, 500 shoe
makers were in line.
Only American flags and trade banners
were allowed in the procession, which was
in seven divisions. After the parade adj
journment was had to the picnic grounds
where the festivities are now at their
height

one thiId,s nrean

Harriet Martinean relates that, of her
many childish fancies, perhaps none
was SO terrible as dream she had at
four years old 81 dreamed she says,
''that we children were taking walk
with our nursemaid. Out of the public
house there came stag with prodigious
antlers. Passing the pump, it crossed
the road to us and naoe polite bow,
with its head on one side, and with "a
scrape of one foot; after which it pointed
with its foot to the public house, and
spoke to me, inviting me in. The maid
declined, and turned to go home Then
came the terrible part.
by the time we were at our own door
it was dusk, and we went up the steps
in the dark; but in the kitchen it was
bright sunshine. My mother was stand
ing at the dresser, breaking sugar, and
she lifted me up and set me in the sun,
and gave me bit of sugar. Such was
the dream which froze me with horrorl
Who shall say why?" concludes the mar
rator, looking back from her strong
minded maturity to that vividly remem-
bered childish dream, and utterly un-
able to understand ''what the fright was
about. ."-Argosy.

Great Men from am Accident.

The history of a certain American
family furnishes several examples of a
beneficent result of disabling accidents
The young son of farmer in, small
town in Massachusetts had his hand
crushed in his fathers cider mill, and
being thus untitled to gain his livelihood
by farming was sent in due time to the
academy to commence preparation for
professional life. He died member
of the United States senate.
A boy who belonged to another branch
of the same family, in the vicinity of
Boston, cut his knee badly and was long
confined to the house. His kind pastor
supplied him with books, and perceiving
that he had natural aptitude for study
taught him Latin and finally induced
his parents to send him to college.
The young man was graduated at Har-
ward and became minister of the gos-
pei. One of his sons was a general in the
army of 1912; another served his coun-
try in congress.
The son who entered college had six
sons who were college educated men, all
prominent in their profession-one a
judge of the superior court of New
Hampshire and another professor for
forty years in a New England college
and eminent as an author
All this life of education and useful

The Horses knew the Tune.

a relation of mine, who has spent
many years in India, remembers we'll
how, when living in Lucknow and en-
joying the evening drive with other
English residents in the Indian city. the
carriage horses would toss their heads
and paw the ground impatiently when
the first notes of Good Save the Queen
were played by the military band every
evening. 1t was the last tune played,
the signal for dispersion.
a skeptic-or, perhaps, more than one
having insisted that the horses only
knew the tune because it was always
played last, and they were able to calcu-
late time, the experiment was tried of
playing "God Save<the Queen in the
middle, instead of at the end of the
evening. Instantly there was the same
excitement in the horses standing round
''the course" The same impatient toss
ing of the head and prancing of the feet,
the same general stampede and eager
ness to start homeward.
No one could any longer doubt that
they knew and recognized the air; in
fact, that they could tell one tune from
another.-London Spectator.

Valuable Real Estate.

The prodigious increase in the value of
Fifth avenue property is indicated by
the terms in which part of the land at
the southwest corner of Fifth avenue
and Thirtieth street, upon which the
new hotel, the Holland house, stands, has
been leased by Mrs. Mary j. Van Doren,
the builder and owner of that imposing
edifice. 1t is understood that Mrs Van
Doren was able. to buy outright three
fourths of the land necessary for the site
but that for the corner part of it she was
compelled to pay the almost incredible
ground rent of $4,000 year. clear, she
agreeing to pay the taxes.
1t is understood also that the lease is
for 100 years. Hence the owner of this
land and the heirs viii enjoy an income
of $4,000 per year, free of all burden or
expenses, for the next 100 years. Thin;
of it! Thirteen hundred thousand dol
lars merely for the use of piece of
land on a Fifth avenue corner, without
the owner being obliged to spend one
cent for improvements, taxes or any
other form of outlay. Fortunate, in
deed, are the possessors and inheritors of
Fifth avenue corner lots.-New York

DIseouraginc the Use of Tobacco.

Professor Smith, formerly of Bowdoin
college, did not like to have the students
chew tobacco during recitations and
took effectual means to break up the
practice. A boy who was called upon
to recite one day, not expecting to be
pulled as the saying goes, on the next
day in succession, would go into the
class and chew tobacco during the hour
Whenever ''Cosine" noted this he was
morally certain to ask that student a
few questions, and by keeping him up
fifteen minutes or so would manage to
put him in u position where he would
either have to swallow a copious amount
of tobacco or else choke. Such vigorous
treatment had beneficial effect.-Lew-
iston Journal.
