Specimens of the beautiful lace that
Is being made by the Chippewa Indians
are now seen in few of the fashion
able houses of New York. They are
mainly in the form of table covers,
bed spreads and piano covers. The
lace is peculiarly adapted for these
purposes, as the designs are bold and
forcible and show to great advantage
when placed over delicately colored
silk lining. In quality and style, how
ever, the lace is quite subject to vari-
alton as Is that of any other make, and
ample opportunity Is therefore afforded
for the individuality of the worker to
assert itself
1t is to Miss Sibyl Carter, of New
York. that the Chippewa squaws owe
their knowledge of lacemaking. In 1891
she conceived the idea of teaching
them this accomplishment The bead
work they formerly made, while it dis
played their patience and nimbleness
of touch, was quite unstable. The ac-
complished teacher that Miss Carter,
aided by the Episcopal mission, sent
to them, was Miss Pauline Colby. She
speaks of her pupils as being most
eager to learn, and says that the idea
once grasped they work with an &C
curcy which far surpasses that of
white women.
From the first the lace found ready
sale among wealthy New York women.
who encouraged the work by giving
large advance orders Mrs. Cornelius
Vanderbilt and Mrs. J. Pierpont Nor
gan have fine bedspreads of 1t for
which they paid $500 apiece. Mrs. As
tor too. has been a liberal patron. The
Indian women receive at the rate of 10
cents an hour for the completed work.

THE EFFECTS OF THE BIG STORM.

4hL hCA0 OE bAO oAohhs
 New Preston had a small deluge. last Saturday afternoon, A shower of con- siderable power passed over this village in the morning but threatening clouds still denoted the storm was not past and | about 3 o'clock in the afternoon with | ltghtniDg's flash and thunder roll, the 8 orm commenced again with renewed rec and for one and half hours the do ownpour of rain exceeded anything seen | here before for years. Our streets were fl ,oded. Some cellars suffered seriously | by the sud den overflow of water, especi- ly that of Mrs Isaac Browns, the wa- ter rose there to height of several in- ches. The damage to the roads in this section of the town cannot at present writing be computed. The Hill road leading from this village towards Kent over New Preston hill was at o'clock, Saturday evening, declared impossible and barrels, poles and lanterns placed thereon, warning all travellers to be- ware. The road leading to New Pres- ton railroad station was submerged in water by the extreme rise of Bee Brook SO that Station Agent Haynes was turn ed from his usual course in coming home and felt obliged to come by Gen Aver ilPs. No damage was felt by lightning in this vicinity except at Edward Gusta- l comb and George w. Ferris, carpenters, were employed on one of MT Gustave- sons cOtts ges. They were adjusting window castings and it is thought light ming bolt burst outside the cottage which seriously shocked and prostrated both Holcomb and Ferris. Mir Holcomb soon revived and was able to ride home the same evening but MT Ferris remained uncons cious for some time and when he became conscious he found him. self unable to move and pr Marcy en- joined absolute quiet for him that night and the next day. His wife was called and remained with him till his removal home, the first part of this week. MT Holcomb's eyes and one arm and leg seemed to feel most severely the shock while with Mir Ferris 1t seemed to be as near fatal stroke as could be and life be saved. All possible was done by Mrs GustaVeson and the cottagers to i'm medi- ately summon the doctor and render such comfort and reliet to the stricken ones as could be done. Dwight Wilson of Washington happened to be at MT Gus taveson's at the time and drew both men out of the cottage where the rain could fall on them and it is thought that was the wiseet thing to do Tn preventing more serious and possibly fatal results, especially with MT Ferris. It was deem. ed necessary on Sunday to employ men on the Bee Brook road to the railroad station in order to make it passable for Monday morning for carriages to the station.
