TROLLEY WIRE DOWN
Passengers Had to Transfer in
 DoWDp0ur of Rain.

The breaking of the trolley wire near the Naugatuck station about 9 o'clock this morning, almost put q horse to sleep and made it rather dis agreeable for persons who used the cars on that line for the next two hours; for they had to transfer at the point and walk, with the rain coming down rather fast A large stretch of the wire broke, starting near tie sta ton and extending down to the office of the Plume x Atwood factory, q dis tance of about 15O feet. Just as the wire fell a horse attached to wagon of the Blake apd Johnson factory was passing. The wire glanced the horses back, and i'll some manner got between the animals legs. The horse was stunned and fell to the ground, and it looked as though it would be electrocuted. But luckily at the time lineman happened to be passing and with the aid of his rub Der gloves and rubber belt, he sue ceeded in getting the horse out of its predicament. When the animal was on its feet it showed more life than it did before it received the shock. For some time it is said the wire was in the street with no one to warn pedes- trians and teamsters of the danger. When the company was at length in- formed of the break the construction car was sent over to repair 1t. It took more than two hours to do so. The wire broke just a short distance from where similar accident occurred some months ago. At that time the wire fell on the trolley car and caus- ed panic among the passengers. There was all kinds of grumblng among the passengers this morning because of having to do the transfer act.

THE DRAGON FLY.
singuIariy Adapted to It's Life oi
 Aerial Piracy,

singuIariy Adapted to It's Life of Aerial Piracy. No one could fail to be struck with the singularly perfect adaptation of the dragon dy's structure to life of aerial piracy. The four wings are large and in proportion to their weight enormous ly strong. Each is supported by won- derfully arranged network of slender ribs, which give the necessary rigidity to the thin, transparent membrane forming its basis. The muscles by which the wings are moved are mass. i've and powerful and are so arranged among themselves that the animal is capable of steering Its course with an unerrlng accuracy which any bird might envy. In this power it is largely aided by a marvellous keenness of sight, for in addition to the two great gorgeously colored compound eyes which make up so muca of the head the insect possesses three smaller sim pie" eyes, making five eyes in all. The prey when overtaken is seized and de voured by means of powerful, sharply toothed jaws.
 An animal which lives such an ac- tive life naturally requires very per feet breathing apparatus, and this is amply provided by a system of holes on the sides of the body which open into an elaborate network of air tubes, supplying every part of the system. The air in these tubes is constantly renewed by the regular compression and dilatation of the body by special muscles.-Chambers' Journal.
