MANY POISONED.
Willimantic and Windham People
 Taken Sick After Party

Willimantic and Windham People
 Taken Sick After Party.
 Willimantic, March 18.-The friends and neighbors of William Swift of Windham Center, to the number Of about seventy-fve, rendered a birth day reception for him at the chapel of the Congregational church i'll that place Monday evening, on the occasion ol his 8Oth birthday. There was no speechmaking, but during the evening Rev k. H. Means, pastor of the church, presented to Mr Swift a large and beautiful picture of Zimmerman's "Chr.sI and the Fishermen" During the evening the ladies served refresh ments.
 The sequel to the party, however, tended to mar the enjoyment of the evening, for before morning nearly half of those present needed the services of physician. The symptoms indicated poisoning and it was not until morning and after vigorous medical treatment that many of them felt themselves out of danger. Many were compelled to remain in. bed all day yesterday. Among the refreshments served was ice cream and it is to that that the phy- sicians attribute the sickness. The ice cream was made in four lots by that number of the families of the parish, and the theory is that one or two of the supplies of cream contained some hcemical combination which was poi sonous. The people present were served from the several supplies all at the same time and for that reason it so happened that some were affected and others were not. In some cases but a single member of family was affect ed and in others nearly all the family were more or less ill.
 Ex-Alderman c. k. Utley of this city, whose wife is daughte rof Mir Swift, was present with his wife and three children. They all sat together at the refreshment tables and were served to ice cream at the same time, but the only member of the family who was infected was Mrs Utley. Mir Utley ar rived home in this city about 10 o'clock and about 2 o'clock next morning Mrs UtleE-was taken violently sick, but the symptoms were not sufficiently alarm ing. to warran the calling of phy- sician. Yesterday afternoon all of the afflicted patients were pronounced like i 1y to recover.

NEARLY AsPHYxIATED.
Experience of Two Actors at the New
 Madison House.

Experience of Two Actors at the New
 Madison House.
 Hartford, March 1S.-George Watt kins and George Stanley Mcleod of London, English actors connected with the company that played 'The Duly Way at Parsons theater Monday night were nearly asphyxiated at the New Madison house early yesterday morning. They went to bed at 4 o'clock in the morning. There is a gas stove in the room. the tube of which is connected with the pipe from which the gas jet extends. It is supposed that when they entered the room they turn ed the cock admitting the gas to the stove. As the gas jet did not light they turned the other cock on. They went to bed with the gas lighted. The win dows and door were closed and after the men went to sleep the room quick ly filled with gas. Watkins went to the office about o'clock in the morn ing and after he paid his bill he stag gered and fell into the arms of D. J. Lucey, the proprietor. Mcleod was found in a stupor and when he was aroused he ran down stairs in his nightclothes. After the room had been aired the men went to sleep again. MT Lucey said it was surprising that there was not an explosion.

Had Belonged to Doctor and Had

Had Belonged to Doctor and Had
 Been Thrown Away.
 Torrington, March 1S.-The mystery surrounding the skeleton which was found in the borough yesterday morn ing when John B. Castle, blaAksmith, living at No 20 Clinton street, called at the City hall and stated that he had thrown the skeleton out in the swamp late last fall where it had lain covered by the snow until recently. Castle formerly lived in the house on East Main street, part of which was oc- cupied by Dr A. l.. House. When the later gave up his practice and went to Mexico Mrs Castle was employed to assist in the moving and sale of the furniture and in some way unknown to her box containing a skeleton was mixed LID with her goods and on her re- moval later to Clinton street the box went too. Last fall in house cleaning the box was opened and the bones were found. MT Castle having no use for skeletons in his family dumped the contents of the box in the swamp at the rear of his residence and thought no more of it until the reports of the mystery reached him. Then he hasten- to explain.

TURNING BLACK HAIR
" ksh ,sNgN
" - n a -.

A telegram to the st. Louis Re-
public, from Pasaic, n. j., under
date Of June 20, says: One flash
of lightning has turned the coal
black hair of Thomas Foxhall to
a snowy white. Mr.. Foxhall's
experience is one of the most
extraordinary auu remarkaUle Ia
the history of electrial phenom-
oG0 ~, . : T.-!'HJ s....v..
In this city, and once a week his
business requires him to visit
Philadelphia. He was there the
other day, seated in the office of
a friend, when a thunderstorm
broke over the building.
There was a lightning flash,
followed instantly by a peal
of thunder. The conclusion was
so great that it caused the
window panes to shiver. The
flame of blue and purple preced-
ing the thunder clap lighted up
in interior of the building with
a ghostely glow. Mr.. Foxhalland
his friend were stunned and
blinded.
When they recovered their
senses they saw great rent in
the floor where the thunder bolt
had passed. 1t was not more
than three feet from the chair In
which Mr.. Foxhall had been sit
ting.
Mr.. Foxhall scarcely was aware
Of the change which had taken
place In himself until he looked
at himself In a mirror. Then he
saw his hair had turned white.
There was no pain, no distress,
futher than the feeling of numb
ness which follows an electrical
shock.
The mystery of it all is, how the
mysterious energy discharged
from the clouds could have bleach
ed the pigment of the hair tubes
without causing instant death.
So far as known there is no sim.
liar case on record.
