LIVES SAVED 1T BRANFORD.
Congressman Haynes Heroic
 Rescue of Two Fathers.
The Two Women Went Down Tn Each Others Embrace The Congressman Made Plunge and Brought Them To Safety Scene Was Witnessed By Many Fathers and Hotel Guests.

 Branford, Aug 9.-Congressman Haynes of New York saved two lives at the Branford Point house bathing pavilion yesterday afternoon. There was merry crowd of bathers ill the water between 12 and l o'clock, among the number being Mrs Harrison, daughter-in-law of Lynde Harrison, or New Haven, and Miss Lillian Dillon, daughter of J. E. Dillon, head salesman for the Nicely Dry Goods com- pany, of New Haven. These two ladies were sporting in the wa ter and both dove at the same in stant, their heads coming together under water, stunning them for the moment, Mrs Harrison suffering most in this respect. Miss Dillon saw that her companion was in trouble, and she immediately set about getting her to a place of safety. While doing so both ladies became exhausted and sank before the eyes of the bathers. Congressman Haynes, who was summing himself on the pier, had been watch ing the two bathers. and about this time he took in the situation, and in q twinkling he had dove from the top step striking the water within a few feet of where the women went down.
 When he appeared again he had Miss Dillon in his grasp and she in turn was clinging to Mrs Harrison After a short struggle both ladies were landed on the pier, after which Miss Dillon succumbed, and tainted. About this time MT Harrison, who had been an eye witness of the scene from the yer anda of the hotel came rushing toward the water divesting himself of his outer garments as he ran, but before he could make the plunge Congress man Haynes had brought the bathers to place of safety. The congressman was the hero of the hour. and it is safe to say that if hegwere running for office ill the Branford district he could have a life position. Last evening Messrs Harrison and Haynes felt so happy over the event. the former to think that his wife was not drowned, and the latter happy at the thought of saving two precious lives, rendered their friends one of Landlord Sxn- lords best shore dinners. The affair was a most delightful one and those present heaped enough congratulations on the shoulders of Congressman Haynes to last him through several campaigns. s Congressman Haynes and his charm ing wife will leave Branford to-day or tomorrow, and they will be missed for they have been the life of the Point house. The children especially will miss the big hearted congressman, for scarcely day passes that he does not get up some entertainment for the lit tie ones. and there is no lack of sweet meats and dainties at these parties, all furnished by the generous hand of MT Haynes.
