Bethel.

There was runaway accident at
the Bethel station Wednesday in
which four teams and ten horses
were mixed up. 1t was interesting
for few moments and it looked as
though some one might get hurt, but
no one was injured and no damage
was done. The Woodstock and
Rochester stages the latter with
four horses-wcre standing by the
station, facing each other, waiting
for the mail train up. Behind the
Woodstock stage, Antoine Pecor
driver, was double rig from Phil
lips livery stable, and near by was
freight team. On the arrival of the
train the engine let off a little super
huous steam under the heels of the
Phillips team, which was more than
than the horses could stand and they
plunged forward as if were shot out
of cannon, the wheels on one side
of the rig mounting the hubs of the
Woodstock stage but getting away
safely. This set things humning
and the three other tea ms all made
break. The Rochester horses had
no trouble in getting away with the
boy at the reins and ran as far rs
Brooks & Washburn's store, when
they were headed off. The Wood
stock stage was just gathering speed
when Antoine caught them at the
post office, while the freight team
got as far as Tupper's store before it
was held up. Phillips team, which
started the excitement, was caught
near the station. There was an IN
tcrcstcd crowd watching the affair,
but every one succeeded in keeping
out of the track of the runaways.
At the special town meeting held
last Friday the town refused to eX-
empt the Bethel Shoe company from
taxation for a period of five years.
The meeting was very largely at
tended and the vote stood $50 to
1856.

 The zero weather of yesterday caused considerable talk among the charitably disposed concerning the establishment of free soup houses in different parts of the city
 Everyone connected with the work of alleviating the suffering of the poor agreed that scarcely ever in the history of the work has there been more need for the free soup houses in this city. Every day finds scores of new faces calling at the residences of the princi- pal streets offering small articles for sale. Several young women prominent in church work have established free soup house on East street, near Franklin. A large number of men and women went there yesterday to take advantage of the charity of the back CTS of the plan,

 The road, if permission is granted, will start at the present terminus of the New Haven Street Railway com pany's line in East Haven, and go over public highways and through acquired private lands, to the beach.
 The length of the new road will be about two and one-half miles.
 This line is independent of the ru- mored extension of the New Haven Street Railway from Lighthouse Point to the same shore terminus, but If both were built would form a belt line in- cluding East Haven and Morris Cove
