MERIDEN MAN KILLED.

Fell from the Roof of Building Yes-
 terday.
 Meriden, Oct. 6.-George Brady of 164 Pratt street to-day fell from the roof of building at the corner of Church and Grove streets, owing to the slip ping of a ladder, and received injuries from which he died about 10 o'clock. He was engaged in making repairs in the chimney.
 The physicians examination showed that nearly all the bones in the trunk of the body had been crushed, and that one arm was broken. This indicated that the small ladder fell upon him. A blood vessel near the heart was burst, and this is thought to have been the immediate cause of his death.
 Brady was formerly a member of the Meriden City band and formerly lived in Rockville.

Grim Humor.

AS MT. Files was not quite clever enough to attain the knowledge of hu- man nature which assists so materially in success, he made unremitting and universal suspicion a substitute. He had managed to accumulate fair share of property, but not enough to compen- sate for disliking so many people and being disliked by them. He had been discussing some matters of business with 8 commercial acquaintance and had need of certain documents. He rang bell, and a frightened looking office boy appeared.
 'Tell Spriggs to come here," said MT. Files, and the boy hurried as if he feared his employer would change his mind and cut off esca se. MT. Spriggs appeared, a young man with 8 vacant eye and a double chin. He gazed list lessly at the selling while MT. Files in- structed him to get a key from one stationery from a third. Spriggs had difficulty in catching the names of the men, and at last had to have them writ ten on a piece of paper. As the young man departed MT. Files made gesture in his direction and said:
 "There goes my most trusted em- ployee."
 "Has he been with you long?" in- Quired the visitor.
 "No. He came day before yesterday. '"
 "He hasn't learned much about the business yet, has he?'
 "Not thing. That's the reason he's trusted employee.
 And MT. Files laughed for the first time in weeks.-Detroit Free Press

 "'But, madam,' said, you must indorse it just as drawn, to the Sweet est of the Sweet" "'
 "She snatched up the pen and wrote the words below the name, and I paid the money. "-Chicago Chronicle.

 Last Friday Clarence R. Sadd, pro- prietor of the Rockville Milling Company, caught by an upright shafting near by an carried around att terrific speed. An em- ployee of Mir. Sadd, hearing the noise, ran into the building and stopped the power. The clothing of MT. Sadd, which was wound around the shafting was cut and he was released from his awful position. No clothing was left on him except that which held him to the shafting. Thh in- jured man was wrapped in blankets and carried on a stretcher to the Rock vile House. The physicians found that MT. Sadd's condition was precarious. His left ankle was fractured and crushed by coming in contract with the wooden posts and small grain elevators as he was car ried around the shefting. His right leg was badly injured. His right arm was broken in three places and the thumb of that hand was torn from the socket. On his head and face are several bad wounds. It was thought at first that he had re. ceived fracture of the skull, but this proved not to be SO. His father, Carlos R. Sadd, arrived from his home in Filling. ton soon after the accident and by advice of physicians the son was sent to the Hartford Hospital on the BIO train. The attending physicians think he will re cover from his injuries. MT. Sadd came to Rockville from Ellington a year ago and built the plant where the accident oc cured. He was doing profitable busi ness. Sadd's storehouse, located near hit mill, was burned on November 23.

Different Reasons.

In a little New Hampshire village there lives an old lady who has such a sweet spirit of kindliness toward all the world that she is unable to comprehend the entire lack of that spirit in some other people.
 Not long ago one of her granddaugh- ters, a gay young city girl, was paying her visit and one day told her of a ragged and intoxicated man whom she had seen on the street just before 1eav- ing home.
 'I can t bear to pass a man like that, she said vehemently at the end of her story.
 II know just how 'tis, dear," said the old lady, laying one of her soft. wrinkled hands on the girls head. "It does seem as if you'd got to stop and speak with the poor creatures just 8 minute, doesn't it? never can bear to pass 'em by without word. It doesn't seem human"
 The gay little granddaughter was quite disturbed by this misinterpreta- tion of her words, but she did not un- deceive Der grandmother to her mean ing. For some reason she felt ashamed. Youths Companion.

Hartford Courant: The enumeration of children of school age (4 to 16) in the state, as taken last October, shows an ln- crease of 5,092, which Is altogether the largest in the history of Connecticut Every county shows a net increase except Windham, where the falling off Is very slight. There are 67 towns that show decrease, but these decreases are in most cases very slight. The state Is growing, as a whole. If the school children bear the same ratio to the total population that they did in 1890 (4 62), then the pop ulation of Connecticut is about S51 ,OOO. In 1890 1t was about 745,OOO.
