North Pomfret.
Last Friday evening as Willie Whipple
| and others were returning from an enter
tainment in West Hartford and had
driven few rods from the covered bridge,
his carriage struck deep hole quilted out
by the rains, and tipped over into the riv-
er with the horse. Mr.. Whipple was
thrown into the water and as he rose be
clutched limb and pulled himself out.
IL it had not been for the limb he would
have probably been drowned for he cannot
swim. His wife struck the ground by the
side of the river and was but little hurt.
The horse was drowned and the carriage
smashed to pieces. Louis Whipple was
ahead of them and, fearing something was
wrong, turned back. His horse reared and
plunged off a thirty-foot Dank, and was
caught between two trees. 1t was taken
out uninjured but for a few scratches. 1t
seems singular that two accidents should
befall the same family the same evening.

except fragments of it where it had been
torn to pieces. Beyond that it was COM
pletely buried with earth and rock At this
point 1t began to be hard to tell what was
rock except from their angles and pro-
jectinns. The ooZe from the white blue
clay began TO flow from higher points, buh-
bling from the tops Of The cliffs, making the
rocks look just frosted.
This was the beginning OF one of the
ends of the slide. tor on looking up there
appeared new made cove in The top Of the
cliff. The front was torn away for over
800 feet.
Hundreds of tons of earth and rock had
Numbered down into. the foam of the sea
smashing aud b1rying the fiume. Here and
there where the earth was torn aud riven
bubbling springs Irickled down, the water
at times oozing and flowing in cascades and
streams.
Landslides are liable to occur again in the
same locality when the dIsntegratiug
forces get in their work, which is apparent
from the character of the cliff formation,
1t Will take great deal of work to put
the hume into condition again, and mean
while one of the city's reservoirs is cut off

The Spring Valley Company, after the
first slide on last Wednesday, sent men out
to repair the damage. They partially sue

In certain portions OF the flume. But they
have now TO repair the damage to tine Fri

Slides on the cliffs are liable to occur even
In fair weather, for the disintegration is
caused by the flowing of hidden streams

but 1t was stated at the barracks when in

THE MAN AWOKE.
An Accomplished Burglar
Caught at Work.
He Is Taken to the City Prison With
His Plunder and Tries
to Escape.

Ihomas Predmore, mining man, who
lives at 9O9 Kearny street, sought his couch
at an early hour Saturday night and
hastened to dreamIand. He had Just found
very valuable nugget in the Land of Nod
when noise in his room brought him back
to earth.
He opened his eyes, and to his astonish-
ment saw man holding a candle in one
hand, while the other was buried in the
pocket OF pair of trousers which the
miner had thrown upon chair lust before
retiring.
Predmore leaped from his bed with a
yell, aud his uninvted guest blew out the
candle and jumped through a window For
obvious reasons PredmOre could not follow
the might've. He hastily appareled hims self
and found to his chagrin that S96 which
had been IN one of his pockets had been
stolen, and that his gold watch chain and
locket, valued az $3.50, had also disappeared
The thief had gained an entrance to the
room by cutting aw-y the window-casine
and removing the sash.
Peldmnre Informed Officer Conbov OF his
loss and described the thief. Conboy soon
found the burglars trail and followed it up
to the hallway of DR.. O'DonnelPs house on
The corner of Washington and Kearny
streets. Conboy seized the thief, who tried
to break away, and the perennial candidate
tor Mayor came out of his rooms and told
them to 90.
Conboy took his man to the City Prison
They passed through the outer door and
reached the iron gate when Conbov with
drew his hand from the prisoners shoulder
to strike the knocker and the captive made
break for liberty. Conboy shouted and
the fugitive was corraled by the officers in
the assembly-room and taken into the
prison. His name is George Patrick, alias
George O'Doole
When searched in the prison Predmore's
watch was found in his pocket. He is an
experienced thief, and a charge of burglary
was placed against his name on the register
OF the City Prison. He was the pal of
Woolby and Woods. burglars who are now
in the CountyiJail. His home is in Butcher
town.

both. inst the same. and has in his first at
temp, probably given to the world some
thing that will not only make him famous
but bring many ducats into his Golfers.
Noah Brandt has written too many pretty
tuneful songs, too many dreamy waltzes
and 10 o many stirring marches for his sbil-
ity as a composer In any of the realms of
music TO be questioned, and the very fact
that he sees in the work of Forman an op-
poTtunity to surpass all his previous efforts
in composition is a recommendation for the
llbretto not 10 be despised.
Mr.. Formau, who spent some months on
the Hawaiian Islands years ago. has laid
the plot of his opera in that beautiful
country. He commenced the work of writ
ing the librstto over year ago, but never
consulted any composer concerning his
work until in October last, when be, in con-
versation with Brandt, invited the latter to
his rooms to look over his work, there being
only two completed and unrevised acts at
the time
Brandt was charmed, and at once sign nifed
not only his willin Gness TO produce a musi-
cal score to fit the words Forman had writ
ten, but promised that il the opera was
completed it should make both the libret-
list and composer famous.
Then It was the work now nearing COM
pletion was undertaken in earnest, and
since then the opera has been pruned. re-
vsed, corrected and revised until it is to-
day almost ready for production.
The story told in the lyrics and music Is
about as follows:
II opens with the anchorlng Of the British
ship Discovery. commanded by Captain
Cook, in the harbOr OF Honolulu In 1892
The ship is short of fresh water, and Dr..
CuDples. the ships surgeon, Marley, the
bo'seu, and crew of sailors take the long
boat and row to the Island in search of
drink.
The chorus which opens this article is
sung by the sailors as they haul their boat
high and dry upon the beach and prepare to
explore the Island. One of the sailors Is q
