BRIDGEPORT DAMS BURST.
District Has Chapter of Accidents
From FIoOd-TyyO Dead.


District Has "a Chapter of Accidents
From FIood-TwO Dead.
BRIDGEPORT, Conn, July 31.-Loss
of life and immense damage to prop
erty followed the bursting of reser-
voirs north of this city as result Of
the unprecedented fall of rain early
Sunday morning. The precipitation in
the series of showers which struck
across Connecticut reached a total Of
seven inches in this section, a down
fall which overtaxed the city sewers
and caused the flooding of cellars of
business buildings in downtown streets.
North Of here in the towns of Easton
and Trumbull the rainfall was even
heavier, and SO quickly did the water
rise at the dam at Wards mill, at Eas-
ton, that the dam went out at 2 o'clock
in the morning, sending n great body
of water down through the town of
Trumbull In a short time the dam ut
the paper mill reservoir broke, and the
body Of water swept down into Berk-
shire pond. There was no warning
to the people who lived on the banks
of what is usually a small water
course. The house occupied by John
Lesco, his wife and several children
was picked up by the flood and carried
mile below The Lesco family We're
asleep at the time, but all were rescued
after a perilous journey.
A house occupied by Michael Moran
was hurled against the Berkshire
bridge and smashed to kindling wood,
and it is believed that Moran was
drowned. Police and firemen went. to
the rescue and saved several lives.
At North bridgeport while the barge
Clara was going downstream, the three
masted schooner Hope Haynes, from
Bangor, Me-, was torn from her moor
ing ut Miller's dock and was being
driven downstream in the wake of the
Clara. She brought up against the
Congress street bridge and drove her
jibboom through the structural work
and tore down the electric light wires.
The escape of current from the wires
and the flashes as the live ends touched
the pavement set fire to the gas which
was escaping from broken main.
This brought an explosion which shook
up the entire neighborhood and brought
out the fire company from nearby
department. house. The fire commune
pated to the barge and schooner Hope
Haynes but was soon extinguished.
At the time that the reservoirs at
Easton and Trumbull were emptying
themselves the flood had caused the
overflow of Pembroke lake, in another
part of North Bridgeport The water
swept against the Barnum avenue
bridge and wrecked it just when an
ice wagon was crossing it. In the
wagon were William Kowzeski and
John Starkin. The wagon and horses
were swept away, and Kowzeski was
drowned, his body being found late In
the afternoon. Starkin was swept out
of the wagon and was able to sw.xl
ashore.

Like Ending Money.

Dawson Drug Co., the popular
druggists, are making an offer that is
just like finding money, for they are
selling a regular 80 cent bottle of DR..
Towards celebrated specific for the
cure of constipation and dyspepsia at
half-price. In addition to this large
discount they agree to return the mon
ey to any purchaser whom the specific
does not cure.
1t is quite unusual to be able to buy
fifty cent pieces for quarter but that
is what this offer really means, for it
is only recently, through the solicita-
ton of the Dawson Drug Co., that this
medicine could be bought for less than
fifty cents. They urged the proprietors
to allow them to sell it at this reduced
price for little while, agreeing to sell
certain amount. This result has
justified their good judgment, for the
sale has been something remarkable.
Anyone who suffers with headache,
dyspepsia, dizziness, sour stomach,
specks before the eyes, or any liver
trouble, should take advantage of this
opportunity, for DIR. Howard's specific
will cure all these troubles. But if by
any chance it should not Dawson
Drug Co. will return your money.
