Stolen Horse and Carriage Await Owner at
 Booths Barn-Great Increase of Water
 in Paugh Pond-Other Items.
 Yesterday mornings rain proved an- other drencher, and over two inches of water fell before noon A visit to Paugh pond revealed the fact that the gauge in the gate house registered 116 inches of water. which Is within four inches of high-water mark, when the water runs over the waste dam. This is an increase of ten inches in a week. A big stream of water was running through the canal into the lake, and there is a fair prospect of the pond be- ing full in a short time.

 Inches of Rain Fell In New Haven-Many
 Cellars FIooded-Trains Delayed by

 In the past two weeks this city and vicinity has certainly been visited with very severe rain storms, the equals of which have not been seen in many years past in this region. Early yester- day morning the rain began pouring to increase until about 10 o'clock the storm had the proportions of cloud burst.
 Little rivers formed In the streets and the sewers were greatly overtaXed, Many cellars were flooded both of dwellings and stores, because of the inability of the sewers to carry off the water. The roofs of numerous build ings were unable to withstand the ter rife force of the water and reports of damaged property are heard from all sections of the city.
 The officials of the United States sig nal service bureau in this city said last evening that the rainfall yesterday was two and two-thirds inches. The indi- cations for tomorrow are that there will be intermittent showers, with but slight changes in the temperature. The storm was by no means confined to New Haven, as reports from various parts of the state show great damage done. Waterbury seemed to have been the storm center and the residents of that city probably suffered more than tany city in the state.

WARNING TO OYSTER GROWERS
Communication from the United States
 Government Engineers.
United States Engineer Office,

United States Engineer Office,
 New London, Conn, July P, 1897. To the Editor of the Journal and Courier: With the appropriation made by con- gress in 1896 for improving New Haven harbor it is proposed to dredge to deep en the channel across Fort Hale Bar. The dredging will extend from the red buoy near Fort Hale about south by west for distance of three-quarters of a mile, and it will probably begin on or soon after August 1, 1897
 This dredging will undoubtedly in- jure any oysters left lying in the i'm mediate vicinity of the work, and therefore request, in the interest of such of your readers as have planted oysters in that part of the harbor, that you will give this notice publicity in your paper so that they may take measures to save themselves from loss.
 Very respectfully yours,
 SMITH $. LEACH, Major. Corps of Engineers.

 Serious Damage at waterbury--s4O,OO ,OOO
 Damage Done.
 Waterbury, July 22.-A rain pre- vailed here for six hours and a half beginning at 1 o'clock this morning, and as result a flood has been caused, which gives indications of being the most severe on record in Waterbury. The rainfall was 43S inches, The small streams, always troublesome in times of heavy rain, known as Great" and Little" Brooks, running from the northern section of the city through the center at all times underground, be- came choked. and the water poured in torrents into the streets. Cellars in the northern part of the city were flooded clear to the floors. Serious washouts are to be found everywhere in the city, but there were three of alarming pro- portions. Manhan street, near the Naugatuck river, is practically annihil- ated. The lower end of the street was carried away. Great holes, sometimes twenty feet deep, were made Through out Pearl street the entire roadbed was carried away, and the gas-pipes and water mains were laid bare. North Willow street, one of the principal streets in the city, is filled with holes often ten feet deep.
 Trolley service was suspended abso- lutely during the forenoon. Where the roadbed had not been washed away, great mounds of sand were piled up. Central Square Is 8 lake, with water over a foot deep. Almost every cellar in the middle of the city was filled to the floor above it. Several firms are heavy losers by damage to stock stored in the cellars. At o'clock this morn- ing water, a foot in depth, was cours- ing through the main corridor of the postoffice. The sewers were choked and the gutters and streets became torrents.
 At least s25,000 damage has been done to the streets alone. There Is no way at present of telling the extent of the 1 damage in other ways, but 1t Is thought to be hardly possible that the damage will be less than S40000.

OLIVE COMPANY.
Its Ten Thousand Trees Growing
Finely-The Company Prospecting.

AT the annual meeting of the Sacra-
mento Olive Company, held on Mon
day. the following directors were elect
ed: S. Scion Holl, j. M. Avery, w. d.
Lawton, c. J. Noack, Judge M. +.
Johnson, G. w. Railton and Tom Scott.
The officers elected are: S. Scion Holl,
President; J. M. Avery, Vice-President:
w. D. Lawton, Secretary; California
State Bank, Treasurer.
President Holl stated that the orchard
is kept thoroughly cultivated; the
ground plowed and kept clear of weeds;
that no irrigation had been done, and
that the trees are growing nicely and
equal to the best irrigated olive or
chards in the State.
The trees were set out three years
ago, and this year 5000 of the 10000
trees were loaded with blooms. The
trees, however, will not be permitted
to bear olives this year, as it is de-
sired that they should have more age
before producing a crop.
The Secretary's statement shows a
healthy financial condition of affairs,
showing an income for the year of
So, 562, leaving a small surplus after
paying all expenses of carrying on the
business of the corporation.

While the Captains cooking had en-
dowed him with nice, new case of
dyspepsia, he, in the main was satisfied
that he was protecting himself against
the wiles of the natives, and placidly
abominable cookery graft, to the dis
comfort of free-born American and
Chinese passengers.
When the eastbound overland reached
Colfax the worthy Captain from the
realm of John Bull, was deep in the
mysteries of the culinary art, accord
ing to the gospel of the good Queen
Vic and the flames of the alcohol
stove were throwing out generous
heat, when, without particle of warn
ing it blew up, and as the son of John
Bull was manipulating fryingpan,
some of the burning spirits flew on his
lily-white, warlike hands and they
were scorched-in spots.
Worst of all, however, was the case
of lady, en- route for the East. who
sat in the seat next behind the H'eng-
lishman The burning fluid flew back
and spreading over her portmanteau in
stantly covered it with flames. In the
excitement of the moment the lady
seized the burning satchel and hurled
it through the window.
She was sorry for her action mo-
ment afterward, when she remembered
that the leather satchel contained all
her stock of ready cash, amounting to
something over $50, most of which was
in notes.
The railroad authorities instituted a
search for the missing article, but as
the track was lined with tramps, it is
evident that either one Of the latter
gentry is $50 to the good, or that the
flames devoured both bag and money.

pose of considering the question of the

| superintendent Erlewine stated that,
if the close of the session were fixed at
the 10th there would have been 1876
days taught, including holidays The
law constitutes twenty days teaching
as month and if holidays come dur
| ing the five days that make the week,
| they are counted in.
| After a short discussion Director
| Crouch moved that the time for clos

| The motion was carried unanimously.
| superintendent Erlewine called at
tention to the closing exercises of the
High School, the graduating class be-
ing the largest of any yet, consisting of
| forty pupils. 1t was desired that there
should be class day, to be the 10Th
| and 10th, and it was desired to have
| them in the Metropolitan Theater,
which would cost $50 for the two days.
The total expense will be $3.50.

at the regular meeting

usual patriotic exercises for Fourth of
July and the necessity of selecting

the intention to have elaborate exer-
cises for the closing of the schools. as
the two events would come so closely
together. He hoped each director
would therefore select a speaker for

| Superintendent Erlewine stated that
the father of a girl named Cristenno
complained that his daughter had been
whipped over the legs by the Principal
at Fourth and @, for telling a false
hood. He supposed that the matter
had been satisfactorily settled, but he
saw the father and daughter were here
| to address the board Misses Eilers
and Fay, who were present at the time
of the whipping, stated that it was
done with rattan.
Mr.. Crestenno said that the legs of
his girl were all bruised up, even at
the present time. He showed them to
the board, and they were badly bruised,
| beyond doubt. The girl claimed that
the bruises were caused by the blows
of a bamboo. She had accused boy
of beating her and the other pupils had
denied that he had done so, the faith
er said, and Miss Bernard stated to
him that she whipped the girl because
she told a falsehood and used a bad
| word.
| The matter was referred to the Com
mittee on Rules and Regulations, to
summon the teachers and pupils and
other witnesses to appear on Thursday
night.
