Dashed Down Hill at Thomaston Sat-

Terryville, Aug 20.-While Albert Mitchell was driving a team contain ing man and wife and child for Liveryman Austin to Thomaston Sat urday evening. an automobile came down McKee's hill at a rapid rate and scared the horse. The animal turned abruptly into the ditch in front of the Murnane place, crush ing one of the forward wheels into kindling wood and had 1t not been for the good control of the driver the carriage would have been turned completely over and there would have been serious runaway. The horse was accustomed to automo- piles. but was scared by the uncom- mon rapidity of the machines de- scent. Charles J. Root of Bristol. who lost his life the next day and the lives of most of the party with him by plunging into a steam train near Ashley Falls. Mass, was the man who was operating the machine. It was the one that was destroyed in the catastrophe Sunday The driver of the team recognized Mir Root, but was so busy looking after his horse that he did not notice who was fin the automobile. with him.

CHEATED A NEWSBOY
Officer Caught Man Escaping on
 a Bridgeport Train

Charles Cosimo appeared in court this morning. He tried to "do' a newsboy at the Naugatuck station last evening and for so doing he "got done."
 True, before he landed in the pa trol wagon his fist left It's impression under Officer John Claffeys right eye but then John placed a trade mark on Cosimo which the latter is likely to carry for while. Cosimo in the first place was 'steen sheets to the wind. He bought "de Joinal," that is, he took 1t and refused to ante ap. He boarded the train for Bridgeport but the newsboy informed Officer Claffey who was not long in collaring Cosimo. The man would not pay for the paper but instead, while Claffey was speaking with the newsboy, swung his arm and hurled his fist in the officers right orbs. A scufle en- sued and Cosimo was hustled to the patrol box nearby. While waiting for the carryall Cosimo again became pugnacious and he got his After a few minutes of wrestling Claffey pressed his sandbag into service and Cosimo's face this morning showed how he used it. The prisoner was fined $5 and costs for drunkenness. an equal amount for breach of the peace and $1O and costs for resist ance.

FOR SPEEDING AUTO
George Gilbert Fined $2O and
 Costs This Morning.

It may be all right to drive an au-
 tomobile at a high rate of speed in some parts of the city where one is not likely to be caught, but evident fly 1t is not the part of wisdom to bug through the center at a breezy clip. The "showfurs" and the automobile owners have had the streets pretty much to themselves this summer, but 1t now looks as though fast drives lin the future will be costly. At any rate for going little faster on Sun day morning than the speed limit allows, George Gilbert an employe of the E. H. Towle company was fined $20 and costs before Judge Peasley ] in the city court this morning. Officer l Bowling who was on duty in Ex- change place and Officer Hayes who was in the vicinity of South Main street, testified that Gilbert drove along South Main street about 10 o'clock Sunday morning. towing a car that was up for repairs, at a speed which was dangerous for pe- destrians and teamsters. K. C.. Vaughn who was standing in Ex- change place and Jim" Murnane also stated that the car was going at high rate of speed. Gilbert said that he was towing In a car which was rather heavy and as his low speed gear was not in good working order he had to come from Boulder grove with the high gear going. AL though. according to Gilbert, the car went along rapidly when 1t reached the pavement near Washington street 1t just about crawled up to that time. Attorney McEvoy appeared for the accused.

SENT TO COUNTY HOME
Two Children of Jeremiah Daily
 of Sylvan Avenue.

Another one of those pathetic cases seen so often in the city court even in this age of so called prosperity was witnessed there this morning when Mary Daily age 9 and Jennie Daly age 5, two bright eyed children. who from appearances would be a Godsend to any home, were ordered committed to the County home. They are the children of Jeremiah Daly of Sylvan avenue, who brought the tots to court. Daily evidently has had his share of hard luck and being no long, CT able to look after his children de- cided to have them sent to some place where they would receive the care they need
 Daily said that since his wife died he has had hard time looking after the little ones. It was only last week that one of his boys, after spending seven weeks in New York hospital, was taken to a Hartford institution as he is suffering from hip disease. Another boy is in the state school for boys at Meriden.
 ''The only child I will have left is one boy at home. said Daily, who is a man of big stature T am only working four days q week at Ecnc- dict & Burnham's s since the Fourth of July and make cnly $1.50 day" he declared on the witness stand. An insurance agent. by ;he name of Me Lean, testified that the children are running wildly through the streets daily and said they should be placed in the home.
 The court so ordered.

H0EY HAD MANY FRIENDS. A Fall Down Stairs Fastened His
 naath

The news of the death of George Hoey, the we'll known actor who was manager of the Poli Stock company in this city for couple of years, was received with regret all over town, as the old man had a large number of friends in this city. Although he was apparently in good health a couple of years ago when he left this city and from appearances had many years before him, Bright's disease claimed him much sooner than was expected. His last appearance was at the Biiou theater in Fall River, Mass, about four months ago and on that evening he fell down pair of stairs while going from the dressing room to the stage. The accident is said to have hastened his death.

GERMAN CENTRAL vERBAND.
Manner and Customs of Old Country
 to Be Maintained

The consolidation of all local Ger man societies under the name of the German Central verband was effected last night at meeting held in Con- cordia hall, which was attended by nearly a thousand persons of that race. The purpose is mutual ad- yancement, socially and otherwise. and the upholding of German man ners and customs which are In ac- cordance with the laws of this coun- try. and 1t might be said that every custom which the German brought from the fatherland and seeks to transmit to posterity may be carried out here without fear of running counter with law and order. The society exists in several towns throughout the state and in other states and every place where 1t has gained foothold it proved of much benefit to its members and there Is no reason why it should not work to good advantage in Waterbury, where there are over 5000 residents of German or German descent, includ- ing some of the oldest and most sub stantial citizens in the community. J
 Among the officers present from the State Central Verband in Bridge port were President Charles Keller. Max Wieber, and A. Herb of the agi- tation committee and Charles God hardt. a prominent member of the advisory board. The state officers ex- plained the workings of the organi- zat!on after which 1t was decided to form branch of that body. Temper .ary officers were chosen as follows: President, Antone Wieuorn; vice president, Charles Draher; secretary, F. Lindenman.

Quincy street crossing. Two of the
injured will probably die.
In one instance it took an hour
and half to rescue a workman
who was pinned between the trucks.
His head was hanging down back
ward and he suffered severe torture,
but the doctors reached between the
frame work which held him a pris-
oner and treated the wounds on his
face and head.
There are three versions of the
cause of the wreck. One is that the
passenger train from New Britain
went out on wrong track. The
second is that the work train had
the right of way and should have
had clear track, and that the pas
senger train was ahead of time. The
third is that the work train opened a
switch and failed to close it.
