The Willimantic Chronicle says of the case of Elbridge Chapel of South Coventry, who died on the 9th inst. of in- juries received from the knives of the moving machine he was using:
 In spite of the bad wounds received at that time Drs. McGuinness and Weldon, the attending surgeons, were hopeful of the young mans recovery. The severed tendon seemed to be knitting well and the flesh seemed to be healing. Except for the danger of blood poisoning which was carefully guarded against there seem- ed to be no reason why health should not be speedily regained. Shortly before one o'clock the injured man was taken with a chill and sank rapidly, dying fully ten minutes before his physicians who were telephoned for. could reach his bedside. On learning the symptoms which proceed ed MT. ChappePs decease Dr. McGuinness and. Dr. Welden agreed that death had ensued from 8 very unusual cause, name ly, from venous thrombus, that is, clot of blood, probably of the size of pea, had formed in the injured limb and had been carried through one of the veins into the circulation. When this clot reached the heart it was impossible for it to pass through the ventricle. It therefore choked the opening and stopped the action of the heart. This trouble is very rarely me, with in surgery, and in the case of a young

who have never had the love of children in your hearts, know nothing of this, but to put you in sympathy with the afflicted, truly Iris better to have loved and lost, than never to have loved at all."
 On another April morning the doctor and Freddie started. The lad thought he was going on visit to his grandma, and his childish prattle was of her and of the things he saw on the long ride. After a while he wearied of the ever-changing scenes from the car window, and resting against his companion he slept, and for hours the doctor was alone with his sad thoughts. The boy knew nothing of the change that was before him, but with the trustful confidence which only childhood knows, went where he was led.
 Late in the afternoon they met his rela- l tives, with whom he was to continue his journey. They were entire strangers to him, and when he found that he was to go with them and without his dearly loved papa, his demonstrations of grief and dis appointment were long and loud; the car, as it moved away, rang with them. l The doctors mission was fulfilled, and with heavy heart and 8 firm conviction that two wrongs do not make right, he began his lonely journey home.
 The child was wronged when his natural protectors so gladly cast him off, when their only thought was to get him out of their way. He was again wronged when he was torn away from all he held dear.
 When it became known that the boy was gone, Mrs. Grundy was again puz- zled. Where he came from and where he went were alike mysteries, which she was unable to fathom.
 ,t One day in autumn the doctor stole away from professional cares and went to see Freddie. In a lovely valley he found him late that night, content with new. found scenes and joys, but glad to see his papa. Together they roamed the fields and pastures the next day and gathered chestnuts on the banks of the river Sus. quehanna, or throw sticks upontts turbid waters. After that day the child remark ed, "I going home with papa in the morn ing" He said so the last thing before he went to bed, but before he awoke, that papa was scores of miles on his homewart way. When the boy arose and missed his visitor, he inquired, "Where's papa p They told him he had gone home. "Fun ny, papa couldn't wait till morning, so could go with him." he said.
 A well-known preacher once said 7 "Home is where mother is." How true it is even to us "children of an older growth"
 Freddie has learned to call others pap' , and mamma; but his mind ever turns t' the papa, mamma and home in old Con ! necticut, which to him were real, an' | which he hopes again may be his.

A Terrible Charge.
BY TALLIE MORGAN.

"Prisoner at the bar, have you any, thing to say why sentence of death shall not be passed upon your"
 A solemn hush fell over the crowded court room, and every person waited in almost breathless expectation for an an- swer to the judges question.
 Will the prisoner answer?
 Is there nothing that will make him show some sign of emotion.
 Will he maintain the cold, indifferent attitude that he has shown through the long trial, even to the place of execution i?
 Such were the questions that passed through the minds of those who had fol- lowed the case from day to day.
 The judge still waited in dignified si- lence.
 Not whisper was heard anywhere, and the situation had become painfully op- pressive, when the prisoner was seen to move, his head was raised, his hands were clinched ,and the blood had rushed into his pale, care-worn face, his teeth were firm ly set, and into his haggard eyes came a flash of light.
 Suddenly he arose to his feet, and in a low, firm. but distinct voice, said:
 ''I have! Your honor, you have asked me question, and I now ask, as the last favor on earth, that you will not inter- rupt my answer until I am through.
 II stand here before this bar, convicted of the wilful murder of my wife. Truth full witnesses have testified to the fact that I was loafer, drunkard and a wretch that returned from one of my prolonged debauches and fired the fatal shot that killed the wife had sworn to love, cherish and protect. While have no remembrance of committing the fear ful, cowardly and inhuman deed, I have no right to complain or to condemn the verdict of the twelve good men who have acted as jury in this case, for their verdict is in accordance with the evidence.
 "But, may 1t please the court, wish to show that am not alone responsible for the murder of my wife!'
 This startling statement created tre. mendous sensation. The judge leaned over the desk, the lawyers wheeled around and faced the prisoner; the jurors looked at each other in amazement, while the spectators could hardly suppress theil intense excitement. The prisoner paused few seconds, and then continued in the same firm. distinct voice:
 1T repeat, your honor, that am not tht only one guilty of the murder of my wife The judge on this bench, the jury in tht box, the lawyers within this bar, ano most of the witnesses, including the pas tor of the old church, are also guilty be fore Almighty God, and will have to ap pear with me before His Judgmen Throne, where we all shall be righteousl, judged.
 If twenty men conspire together fo the murder of one person, the law powe of this land will arrest the twenty, ant each will be tried, convicted and executed for a whole murder, and not one-twentietl | of the crime.
 Il "I have been made 8 drunkard by Jaw If it had not been for the legalized saloon of my town, never would have become drunkard; nay wife would not have beel murdered; I would not be here now ready to be hurled into eternity. Had , not been for the human traps set out wit

The Best Position For Healthy Sleep.

A doctor writing in medical paper says: ''An immense number of people sleep on the left side. and this is the most common cause of the unpleasant taste in the mouth in the morning, which is gen. orally attributed to dyspepsia. If a meal has been taken within two or three hours of going to bed, to sleep on the left side is to give the stomach task which is difficult in the extreme to per- form. The student of anatomy knows that all food enters and leaves the stom- ach on the right side, and hence sleeping on the left side soon after eating involves sort of pumping operation, which is nything but conducive to sound repose. The action of the heart is also interfered with considerably, and the lungs are un- daly compressed. It is probable that ly- ing on the back is the most natural pc sition, but few men can rest easily SO, and hence it is best to cultivate the habit of sleeping on the right side"

GAvages Who Know Little Arithmetic.
 In Cations Tropical South Africa" it is stated that the Dammaras use no term beyond three. and that when they wish to express four they take to their fin- gers. Beyond five they cannot count at all. It is seldom, howe1 CT, that they lose in 8 bargain through their inability to count. When bartering, each sheep or oxen, or whatever they may be sell ing, must be paid for separately. If this rate of exchange were at the rate of two sticks of tobacco for one sheep, it would greatly puzzle Dammara to accept four sticks for two sheep. Galton says that he several times paid them in that way, and that the Dammara forthwith set aside two sticks for one of the sheep, and even when he found that he had two sticks left for the other sheep he still had his doubts as to the genuineness of the transaction and was not satisfied until two sticks were put into his hand and one sheep driven away, and then another two sticks given to him for the othelssheep.

What the Growing Generation Wants.
 There is one great fault with the grow ing generation. The young men want to get rich too fast. With wealth going to waste all arc md them they cannot find it in their souls to be patient. They are not content to plod along as their fathers did before them and slowly lay up fortune. They must have it now, today, this instant. When they go into an enterprise, they want capital and lots of it. They want to begin on big scale and electrify the world.
 It is not the age of saving, but of spending. Speculation is the craze of the hour. Every man wants to make more than he can eafn by the sweat of his brow. He must double his money in 8 night and quadruple it the next day. It is an altogether artificial existence. Contentment is not sought nowadays. All that men want is excitement.-New York Tribune.

A California Lum Der Flume.

The county of Fresno, Cal, boasts of Hume 52 miles long, built of timber throughout and designed for conveying lumber from the place of fe1ling in the Sierra Nevada mountains to the plains below. In section the Hume is V shaped, the angle being 90 degrees. The V is ;21 inches deep and for the most part 3 feet inches across the top, this width being increased, however, at various points where a decrease in the grade necessitates a larger volume of water to carry the timber, the lower terminus be- ing 5 feet 4 inches wide by 31 inches deep.
 The main supply of water is received from a lake near it's head, but four addi- tional feeders are led into it at different points along it's. length. The sides of the Hume are constructed of 14-inch boards, and the structure is carried on trestle work for nearly the whole length, these trestles being as many as 130 feet high in some of the deep canyons crossed by the Hume. The steepest grade is one of 1,200 feet to the mile, maintained for about 5000 feet.-Chicago Tribune.

Cnmfnrts and Dangers.


 Many of the comforts of modern life can only be enjoyed at the risk of seri- ous accidents. Leaking gas pipes cause explosions, and the death roll for which that new agent, electricity, is responsi- ble is already considerable. Each severe frost brings it's crop of boiler accidents. Parafin lamps continue to explode. Every day or every night there are fires, many of which lead to frightful acci- dents and often death.
 The large masses of people gathered together in huge city like this are ex- posed to constant attacks from those in- sidious enemies, the bacteria. The dust and soot and fog foster these enemies of human life. The ground under London is honeycombed with drainage pipes, large and small, measuring thousands of miles. Each mile of drain is charged, sometimes at high pressure, with poisons sufficient to kill hundreds of the health fest men. It is enough to make us shud- der to think that only few feet divide us from gigantic, death dealing octo- pus. So that it appears if we give up travelling we run an almost equal peril in staying at Suffering London"

 Reporting the Bible conference held on the camp meeting ground, the Willi- mantle Chronicle says:
 "Rev. c. E. Harris, D. D., of Stafford Springs, lectured on The Reign of Ahab.' He traced the condition of Israel before and at the time of the ascension of Ahab, and then with eloquent periods traced the influence of Jezebel, the heathen queen, in the extinction of the religion of Yavah, and the destruction of Jehovahs priests. Then followed the coming of Elijah, the prophecy of the drouth, the suffering of the nation, and the final test on Mt Car mel. The dramatic power of the speaker was fully seen in this description, and it was of intense interest. The lecture, though long, was of fascinating interest" {"
 Directors of Storrs College visited the college Thursday and Friday. Their principal business was the consideration of certain Improvements to be made at the college, and as a result of their con- ference it was decided to paint all the buildings the coming fall. The old farm house near the barn, which has been un- occupied for two or three years, is to be remodeled and put in condition for the new instructor in horticulture. A new green house is to be built south of the main dormitory which will be about 50x25 feet. It will be in full view of the high way and will add much to the appearance of the grounds. A tract of about ten acres has been leased from the Augustus Storrs estate, which will be used as pa- rade and training ground for the new mill itary department, in which instruction is to be begun this fall. It will also be util- ized by the boys as playground. The directors report the crops at the farm looking fine in spite of the drouth.
