EAsr TIME FoR PRISONERS.
No Chairs to Cane in IAtehseld-ala-
 ehinery Needed.

cHAnNEs AcGAcus
 Winsted. Dec. 27.-on account of the refusal of the Connecticut Chair com pany to send work to the Litehfeld county jail the prisoners at the jail are without work and for several days have done nothing to occupy their time. It is stated that the chair company dis continued sending work to the jail when it found out that chairs could be seated and caned cheaper by machin- cry, and as this has been the chief oc- cupation of the men behind the bars 1t necessitates their being idle. The county commissioners have taken the matter up, and it was stated to-day that they are contemplating the install ing of the necessary machinery with which the work can be accomplished, the prisoners to take entire charge of the work. Another plan discussed by the commissioners is to appoint agents to collect, throughout the county, chairs in need of repairs and to turn this work over to the convicts.

 naIs That Warned Engineer of Ex-
 press That the Other Train Was but
 short Distance Ahead-None of the
 Passengers Injured.

Y.. an instructing conduct or on the accommodation train was crushed to death between the two rear cars. A heavy fog. which has hung over the city for twenty-four hours, hid from view the signals warning the en- glneer of the express, and it was not until his train was almost upon the rear car of the accommodation that he Knew the train was ahead of him. The express was going at about half speed and crashed into the rear coach, throw Ing that one and the one ahead of it off the track. Conductor Rowland was between these cars and had just given the signal to the engineer of the ac- conmodation to back down to the spur track, in order to allow the express to pass. Every night the accommodation usually has three or four minutes to spare after taking the spur track, be- fore the express reaches the depot, but tonight the former was few minutes late.
 But few passengers were in the ac- commodation train, these few being in the forward cars and none of them was hurt, while the express train carried almost it's capacity of passengers. The force of the collision was not great enough to injure any one further than infiicting small cuts caused by flying glass. Nearly all of the windows in the first two coaches of the express train were broken and several of the women passengers, losing their heads, dashed for the doors. but none. jumped from the train. Aside from a severe shaking up and slight cuts the engineer and fireman of the express were not hurt. After a short wait during which the ac- commodation train was backed into the yards, the express was able to continue its trip to New York

THIS OUGHT TO CONVINCE

Cdidrrh.

"If | only knew it to be true would
not hesitate moment" This is a
thought the average person has
when reading the claims of some of
the medicines that are advertised as
cures for catarrh.
The results from the use of Hyo-
mel are so remarkable In the cure
of catarrh, that they Sem beyond
belief. The fact, though, that Hood
d Martin, one of the best druggists
dence in the power of Hyomei to
cure catarrh that they sell it under
their personal guarantee to refund
the money if the purchasers can say
that it did not help them, ought to
convince the most skeptical that
Hyomei can be relied upon TO cure
all catarrhal troubles, no matter
how serious or deep seated.
The complete Homei outfit, con-
sisting Of neat inhaler that can be
carried in the purse or pocket, a
medicine dropper, and a bottle Of
Hyomei, costs only one dollar. Ad-
eiitional bottles of Hyomei can be
procured for fifty cents, making it
the most economical of treatments.
Catarrhal colds, which are so com
mon at this season of the year, have
been cured in day. Mild cases of
catarrh that have become chronic
are frequently cured in a week or
ten days. Now is the time to begin
the use of Hyomei, remembering
that Hood g. M artin sell every pack
age on positive guarantee TO re-
fund the money if it fails to cure.
