BIG SUITAGALNST
TRACTION COMPANY
Is Instituted by Miss Rebecca
Carskadon for Injuries Re-
Ceived in Wreck.

As an echo from the traction car
wreck on the Grasselli line last
summer in which three persons were
killed and number injured, the
Fairmont and Clarksburg Traction
Company now has twenty-five
thousand dollar damage suit on its
hands.
The suit was instituted at Rules
Monday evening in the circuit court
by Miss Rebecca Carskadon. Thus
far her declaration has not been filed
and just what it will contain has not
been made public
From what can be learned OF the
case she sustained bruises on lower
limb in the wreck, which, at the time
she did not consider serious. She
remained at home a number of days
and thought herself well, but she
became lame and nervous Later
she began teaching school att Will
sonburg. but had to give up the
work on account of her nervous con-
dition. She sustained fall and
continued to grow worse. Her at
tending physician after examination
gave 1t in his opinion that a nerve
had been SO badly injured in the
wreck that she would never recover
The suit is the result of the con-
dition she alleges. It will be some
months before the suit will be tried.

 The regular monthly meeting of the directors was held Tuesday.
 The prospect for prosperous season is exceedingly bright. Much building will be done and very large demand for lime will be the result.
 John W. Green of Danbury, formerly director of the company, and father-in- law of Andrew Griffing, son of Presi- dent Griffing, died last week.
 The kilns at the Canaan Lime com pany branch were fired yesterday. Gen. eral repairs have been in progress there since last fall All the kilns at the Peirce-Freeman branch are also in oper ation.
 Borden Briefiets
 Inspector H. B. Hoag has been off duty for several days because of an att tack of grip.
 Several additional dairies have been placed on the Borden list of patrons dur ing the past week.
 Thes branding machine for marking boxes, invented. by.iGrant E. Laidlaw, is to be used at several of the company plants this season and will probably be used for all their branding work in the near future.
 John Egan of the bottling department. has been struggling with the grip for several days.
 Grant E. Laidlawss has been spending considerable time at Dryden, N. Y, where plant. has just been completed. MT. Laidlaw willshave it under his su- pervision until the force employed get | l" the hang of things"
 A Modern Convenience
 Another of the modern and strictly up-to-date conyeniences just introduced in Canaan is an electric stove in the resi- dence of Mrs. J. D. Clemans. The cook ing utensils consist of gridiron, frying pan, coffee percolator, double boiler, oven and an arrangement for cooking which answers the purpose of the ordi- nary stove top. At the rear of the table on which these different utensils sit, are the switches by which the electric cur rent is governed. It is possible to have low, medium or high heat Cords and plugs are used in forming the connection between the power wires and the uten- sils. Many people have inspected this novelty and all are favorably impressed with it and it's operation. Mrs Clemans says it works to perfection and that it is great improvement over gasolene stoves. Hers is now an electrically equipped residence, containing electric light, electric radiator for heating, supplied with telephone and, lastly, an electric stove.
