MARK TWAIN'S HOUSE BURGLAR
 HE'D.

MARK NV AIN . HOUoE DUNGLA h-
 HE'D.
 Last week Thursday night thieves broke into Mark Twain's house and stole about $500 worth of silverware. Miss Lyon, Mark Twain's secretary, heard the thieves in the house about midnight but before help could arrive there the thieves had flown. The thieves made their entrance to the house by prying open one of the kitch- en windows. Miss Lyon telephoned to Harry Lounsbury and he with Sheriff George Banks were soon at Mark Twain's place. They tracked the thieves to the Bethel depot but could not find them. Mir Lounsbury waited at the Bethel depot until the first train for New York came which reached there at 6 o'clock and Sheriff Banks went to Bedding station to wait for the train. Mir Lounsbury boarded the train at Bethel and walked through the train three times to see if he could find the thieves and as he passed the third time located the men. When the train reached Bedding, Sheriff Banks came aboard the train and MT Lounsbury showed hlm the two men he was sus- picious of and he proceeded to arrest them soon after the train left the de- pot. A lively fight followed and one of the men had to be beaten into in- sensibility by club before they could put the handcuffs on him. The other man escaped and jumped from the train, which was soon stopped, it then being less than mile below Bedding station. Charles Banks, son of Sheriff Banks, put chase after the flying man and after lively chase captured his man. In the scuffle in the train sever- al shots were fired by the thief but for tunately only one shot hit any one. Sheriff Banks was shot in the fieshy part of one of his limbs, the ball re- maining in the leg. One man gave his name as Harvey Williams and claimed not to have any permanent home. The other man gave his name as Charles Hoffman and claimed Norwalk as his residence. The men were taken to Harry Lounsbury's and Dr Smith called, who dressed Harvey Williams wounds. He was badly bruised and cut about the head, and also dressed Sheriff Banks wounds. The prisoners were taken at once before Judge John N. Nickerson who found them guilty and bound them over to the superior court under bonds of 5000 and s2O00. Grand jurors J. H. Duncan and Charles Banks took them to Bridgeport, where High Sheriff Hawley had the bonds in- creased, Williams bond fixed at $750O for burglary and murderous attempt on the life of Sheriff Banks, and Hoffman for burglary at S5OOO. It was feared that the two men might be professional crooks and some of their friends might be on hand and bail them out. The men, not being able to furnish the bail, were sent to jail. A satchel, with all the stolen silverware, was found with the men when they were arrested and returned to Mark Twain. The capture of the thieves by Sheriff Banks and Harry Lounsbury so quickly was a good piece of detective work and they should be heartily congratulated. It is thought Sheriff Banks wounds will not prove at all serious.

SEVERITY OF THE DROUGHT
Newtown, Friday, September &, 1908.

SEVERITY OF THE DROUGHT.
 The severity of the drought has not been as evident as at the present time. Though the surface of the ground is not drier than before 1t extends to greater depths, Many wells have given out which have not done so for many years. Nearly all small strea ms and many springs are also dry.
 A son was born to Mir and Mrs r. K. Hawley on Sunday night. Both moth- CT and child are doing well. On a recent Sunday morning, as E. N. Hawley were driving to church, a fine deer came into full view on the meadow of Seth Keeler opposite the residence of Merritt Clark. He gall loped along quite leisurely, crossing the road about six rods ahead of the team, taking a straight line towards the northeast. 1t was fine stag with horns from IS inches to two feet long and apparently full grown. The ease with which it jumped the fences, many of them being quite high, was a matter of astonishment as we'll as cu- riosity. It cleared six within a few minutes apparently taking no pains to avoid any.
 F. W.Beers was brought home from the Danbury hospital on Sunday and is on the road to speedy recovery.
 Alton Halght is now the guest of his mother in the Center.
 Mir and Mrs E. N. Hawley attended the Pomona meeting of the Grange, which was held in Stamford.
