 Southlngton, Nov 5.-Mllldale was the scene of an accident last evening which came very nearly being a se- rious one, Four young men, it is said, were determined to see an automobile accident and tore the railing from the Milldale bridge and laid 1t across the road in such way that an auto which struck the obstacle would be thrown into the river. It is said that the four men then hid in the bushes to await the excitement. Dewey Blakeslee of Plantsville happened along about this time with his heavy touring car. He was going at very good clip when the obstacle was mo- ticed, The brakes were applied but on account of the speed of the ma chine the car struck the railing, smashing the steering gear and other machinery, One of the accused men was caught and was handed over to Deputy Sheriff McCabe and the other three will probably be rounded up soon.
