STORM IN WATERBURY.
Wind Damaged Wires and Trees Blown
DOvn-Henvy Rain.

Waterbury. July Waterbury was
visited by one of the most severe rain
storms of years Saturday night At
about Gas a slight rain began to fall,
which was followed in a few minutes
by heavy wind and increasing rain.
without warning terrific winds carried
sheets of rain at n speed equal to n
cyclone It was short and in less than
- minutes from the start all was calm.
Much damage was done. The electric
current was turned off and on account
of the destruction of wires was not
turned on during the night The town
was i'm total darkness and when some
ventured onto the street they found it
strewn with wires and trees.
one Of the large shade trees in front
of c. W. Randall's residence on Main
street nearly opposite the Waterbury
hotel, was split and a large half was
blown across the telephone wires,
which were carried to the ground. The
electric wires which span the road to
Mr.. Randall's house. were also added
to the pile OF rubbish. In falling the
tree pushed tho wires through one Of
the windows in the house.
Farther up the street a similar acct
dent occurred. This was on the other
side Of the road and it struck the
electric wires. For n distance Of two
of the poles the wires were torn down.
y
were StrawS.
other trees were blown down but
none doing such damage as these.
\ large force of men quickly went
to work to clean the streets and with
the aid Of the local electrician and four
telephone men who happened to be in
town the streets were cleaned Sunday.
Nearly all Of the stores are supplied
with electric lights and for time bus
mess was suspended, although later
several stores were opened
Reports have come in that all grass
which is ready to be cut is laid fiat
and that which was out is nearly all

No one was hurt, although several
were out in the storm The greatest
losses are sustained by the Telephone
