STRUCK

Fred J. LawIoR Injured by Trolley
 Car on south Main Street This NTorm-
 ing.
 Shortly after seven o'clock this morning residents in the vicinity of South Main and Liberty streets we're startled by the noise of breaking glass. followed by the sound of tramping feet. In an instant every win- dow in the neighborhood was raised. A bakers wagon lay upturned on the road, trolley car No 45 standing by it, and 8 group of excited men crowded around the spot and jostled each other in their eagerness to get look at what one would naturally suppose was the mangled body of human being. While the case was not as bad as this, it was sufficient to cause considerable
 Fred J. Lawlor, son of Michael Lawlor. who conducts bake shop at GA South Main, street, .awas starting on his route and had reached point a little north of Liberty street when his horse commenced to shy at a south bound trolley car. The car kept on and the horse continued his capers until the trolley came within few feet of the team when the horse forced the wagon across the tracks. The motorman was un- able to stop in time to avoid collision and the rear part of the wagon was struck upsetting it and tossing the contents in all | directions. When the crash came the glass windows broke and fell ln on Mr Lawlor cutting one of his hands in bad shape, but he managed to get out through the upturned doorway keeping the pranc- ing horse under control until relief came. He was also bruised on the back and side, and the wagon was considerably damaged.
 Treasurer J. Richard Smith of the Traction Co. who was on the car, told Mr Lawlor to make out his bill of damages and the company would promptly pay it.

HEALTH OF THE STATE.
The June Death Rate a Little HEGhe
 Than the Average Of the Month.

The June Death Rate a Little Higher
 Than the Average Of the Month.
 The mortality record for June has been received from 164 towns in the state. There were 953 deaths reported in the state during the month. This was 126 less than in May, Snl one more than the ''aver- age number of deaths in June for the five years preceding the present.
 The death rate rate was 15.1 for the large towns; for the small towns II and Al for the whole state. The rate for Waterbury was 1915; Naugstuck IT 2.
 The deaths from zymotlc diseases were 172, being IS per cent of the total mortality.
 Of the 168 health officers in the state 99 returned reports regarding the sickness in their respective towns.
 The statutes of Connecticut declare dis tinctly that it is the duty of every registrar to transmit to the secretary of the state board oi health, on or before the 7th day of each month, & statement of the mortal ity of his town, yet every month the secre- tary has to send on the sth of the month from twenty-five to forty reminders to those registrars who have neglected to transmit their statements. Last month forty reminders were sent out. It is difi- cult to conceive of any reasonable excuse for so many delinquents.
 Next month every registrar whose mor- tality statement is not received at the office on or before the 9th of the month, will be reported to his county health of- ficer.

THE DYNAMITE CRACKER.

mPrhcam Improvements On the Chinese
 TabOOed by Legislature.
 The bill which passed the legislature on the last day, almost the last hour, of it's session, Tuesday, relative to the use of any other explosive than gunpowder Tn a fire cracker it seems is a blow at the Amer ican fire cracker. The bill reads that every person who sha1 expose for sale or have h his possession with intent to sell, use or explode any fire cracker containing any explosive other than gunpower, shall be fined not more than $20. It was rushed through the legislative halls at trolley car speed, and there never was a hearing oD it. There was no time for a hearing.
 The bill, as said before hits the Ameri- can frecracker between the eyes, or rather it makes it hazardous for every person in Connecticut to buy or sell them.' for the reason that the American firecracker is generally supposed to be made of other ex- plosive ingredients than gunpowder. Va riable quantities of dynamite and nitro glycerine are put in them, while the Chinese frecrackers contain only gun powder.
 local dealer in frecrackers was much surprised when told about the bill yester- day. He said he had never heard of it. but supposed it was aimed at what is known as the dynamite firecracker, which are American made. He did not know what the exact composition of these fire- crackers was, but judged-that they con- tained a more forcible explosive than gun powder because they made more noise and tore the cracker into finer pieces on ex- plosion than the Chinese firecrackers. There are several factories in this country One of them is located in Hartford.

BASE BALL DEAD.

The Four Club League Has Just
 About Collapsed.
 Base ball is dead in Waterbury-dead as a door nall. There are as many lovers of the game here as ever, but they have lost interest. Repeated failures has proven that it is impossible to run a club in this city without capital. The pay-as-you go plan has been tried and even though the team played winning ball. the balance was always on the wrong side of the ledger Since 1886 Waterbury has not had a team that played a full season What is needed is capital and unless some solid men like those who conducted the game in 1886 lend financial aid it will be found hopeless task to try to keep up interest in the game here.
 The Bridgeport Union says: "Things seem to be very much mixed in the state league. Waterbury has dropped out, or as one individual expressed it. twas thrown out" and whether to go or not is an unde- cided question. In very few days Man ager o Rourke expects to have things sifted considerably"
 And this from the Hartford Post, speak ing of the collapse of the league: Differences between the managers in the various towns are the cause. Magnate O'Rourke of Bridgeport is not on good terms with Magnate Durant of Waterbury and Magnates Moran and Henry of Hart ford will not play in the yard of Magnates Reilly and Miller of Meriden on account of the way in which the Hartford team was treated in the latter place on Saturday."

SOUTH BROOKLYN AFFAIRS.

The Pig Nuisance Will Be Abated-OnIy
 Four Persons at Last Nights School
 Meeting.
 Yesterday afternoon Health Officer o Hara called on c. E Turner and informed him of the nuisance which was being main- tained on his land at South Brooklyn. MT Turner was indignant over the affair and at once proceeded to the residence of Napo- leon Jordan and brought him to the health officers office, where he agreed to abate the nuisance at once. MT Turner allowed him to use the land as a matter of accom- modation and was in no way responsible for the trouble. The health officer will allow Mir Jordan a week to get his pigs out of there and clean up the place. and if the work is no: done by that time he will pro- ceed against him and force a strict com plianee with the health laws.
 The raid made there yesterday created such sensation among the residents of that section that all remained at home to discuss the situation. forgetting to attend the school meeting Here there was an- other snarl. There were but four mem- bers present, Chairman Lapointe, Secretary Brooks, Treasurer Mraz and Michael Harty. MT Brooks wanted to go ahead and levy the annual tax, but Mir Harty made a vigorous kick and the meeting adjourned without transacting any business, or if they did do anything it was done under protest.

THE ELM LEAF BEETLE,
Kerosene Emulsion and How to Use 1t
 to Protect the Trees.

Kerosene Emulsion and How to Use 1t
 to Protect the Trees.
 Very many of the elm trees in this city, as we'll as other parts of the state, on which spraying has been neglected have been partially or completely defolated by the elm leaf beetle. At the present time the larvo which have caused this damage have mostly descended to the ground and are clustered about the base of the trees in large numbers. The easiest way to de- stroy them and prevent to a considerable extent their ravages another season, is to treat the ground around the base of the trees for distance of several yards with strong k, rosene emulsion. This will not help the trees this season, but if all the pupm at the surface of the ground are de- stroyed. and if this is done under all tte trees in given town. there will be no beetles to lay eggs next season. Unless the pupR are dt str"yed now the only way to protect the elnIS next year will be by tn @ expensive and some hat difficult method of spraying with PaIis green or London purple.
 The following is a receipt for the prepa- ration of kerosene emulsion: Soft soap quart; kerosene, l plnt; watet, quarts. Warm the soap until it b. comes hq Iefied R.move from near the fire, add the kero- sene. and agitate rspi lily with force pump for five to ten minutes until it becomes 8 homogeneous creamy mass from which the kerosene will not separate on standing. Add the water and thoroughly mix, when the emulsion will have the appearance of milk. This should be applied near the trees at two or three different times in suf- ficient quantity to thoroughly saturate the surface of the ground. A force pump with spraying nozzle or watering pot with rose can be used to apply the emulsion. A hard soap emulsion can be made by dis solving two ounces of hard soap in boiling water and using it instead of the soft soap.

CHRIS s7,RoBEL 'sLQSs.

Diamond, Watch and Money Valued at
 ssI5 Stolen From His Room While
 He sIept-The dob Carefully Planned.
 Between and 2 o'clock this morning burglars effected an entrance through the basement door of the residence of Chris Strobel, 245 East Main street. and enter- ing his bedroom, helped themselves to COZ siderable booty. Among the articles car ried of were diamond stud worth $S6O. taken from Mir Strobers shirt. which hung on the end of the bed; Q gold watch . and charm valued at $100 each, and $l65 in money. All these were taken from MT Stro- bells vest pockets beside the bed.
 In addition to these several valuable pa- pers are missing, and it is believed that the burglars made call into the room of Miss Strobel, who is out of town, and that some valuable articles were secured there. but what they are cannot be told until Miss Strobel, who has been notified by telegraph, returns. z
 strange part of the affair is, that MT Strobel's brother George, who occupied the same bed with him, and who had two gold watches in his vest pockets, and con- siderable money. did not lose anything. Mir Strobel said this morning that he had no clue. He was glad, he said, that he did not wake up while the burglars were in the room, for he knows if he had it would be & case of shooting, in which the men engaged in this business would not be likely to come off second best. t'I re- gret the loss" he added, "but am satisfied that it is nothing worse."
 Drring the time the burglars were at work Mrs Strobel heard noise about the house and thinking that some of the boys might want lunch, she got up andlighted lamp, but not seeing anybody she re-
 
 the matter. The burglary had evidently been planned we'll and the layout of the house must have been photographed on the burglars memo ". One peculiar circumstance, however, which occurred last Saturday morning, may form a clue to the crime. Between the hours of and o'clock Saturday morning the door bell of the Strobel resi- dence was rang. Chris Strobel was awak- ened and answered the call. He found at the door a man, whom in the dark he did not recognize. The caller asked if John Strobel lived there. The person inquired for was the father of MT Strobel and has been dead some years. This information was given the man at the door. He theE asked MT Strobel to step over to a team which was standing across the street and see party who had come to see him. This MT Strobel declined to do at that hour. The man then left, got into the wagon and drove off. Who the parties were and what their business was is hard to guess. Pos. sibly they were the burglars who desired to discover the location of Chris Strobel's room. The party who called must have at least known the Strobel family since he called for man some years dead. Why he desired to have MT Strobel step over to the wagon to consult with him is a mys- tery.
 To-day Detective Egan and Chris Strobel left the city in team and are possibly working upon the the faint description MT Strobel has of his Saturday morning | caller.

FELL FOUR FEN FEET.

A Carpenter Seriously Injured While
 Working on NTiIl Street House.
 John Kipphut of Pearl street. . car penter in tn ! employ of Contractor J.. Mraz, met with Q serious accident about 8 o'clock this morning by falling to the ground from scaffold about fourteen feet high in the rear of house belonging to Luther Cummings on Mill street, just op- posite Steele S Johnson's. The house is undergoing some repairs and Mir Kipphut was standing on the scaffolding when he lost his balance and fell to the ground, fracturing his left wrist and receiving sew eral other injuries about the head and body.
 There was but one other joiner on the job and he was at work in another part of the building and knew nothing of the &C., cident until couple of neighboring wc- men, who saw the man fall. went into the yard and picked bim up from pool of blood. He was unconscious for some time and bled freely from the mouth, nose and ears. A physician was telephoned for from Benedict & Burnham's office and Dr Graves responded and the mans wounds were temporarily bandaged up and he was taken to hisehome in Undertaken Moriarty's ambulance,

Half Price.

It is not without cause that the term "hard headed" has so often been applied to the residents of rural districts in New England. Not long ago dusty, tired looking man presented himself at the desk in tho one hotel of New England town and said ho wanted a room till 6 o'clock the next morning.
 "I'vo cat my supper, and I shall be off before breakfast, |" he said gravely to the clerk. "Now, what would be your lowest price for a room to sleep inP''
 Fifty cents, if you leave at o'clock to- morrow morning" was the reply.
 "Well, now, wouldn't a quarter make 1t jest about right, then?" said the wayfarer, producing n battered 25 cent piece. "You see I'm all excited up travelin, and don't expect to sleep more'n half the time I'm in there!'-.Youth's Companion.
