WINDMILL MADE INTO CHURCH
Novel House of God That Serves for Small Congregation In
 fg England.

Twelve years ago, when the vil- lagers living of the border of Reigate heath, Surrey, England, had no place of worship nearer than the parish church, a service was held in school room close by and was so well at tended that the authorities looked around for a suitable permanent build ing.
 The erection of a church was out of the question, but there stood on the heath the remains of an old mill, a picturesque feature in beautiful bit of landscape Inspection showed that once the rats were got rid of com paratively small outlay would furnish and render the mill fit for public wor- ship, and soon it was opened as the Chapel of the Holy Cross.
 The interior of the chapel arouses interest. Four buttresses, four feet thick by six feet in height, serve as rests for two massive beams which cross each other in the center and sup port an upright shaft cracked with age and strongly bound with iron bands. The buttresses make four nat ural alcoves. The entrance door stands in one, and immediately opposite is the altar; the harmonium is placed in a third, and the bellringer sits close beside it and rings his bell; the fourth is occupied by the congregation. The rent of this novel church is only 25 cents a year.

Madman's Wild Course.

According to advices from Valla- dolid, Spain, a dangerous lunatic, who was about to be confined to an asylum, succeeded the other day in eluding the vigilance of his friends and rushed into the street. Here he fell upon a policeman. and wrestling his sword from him, killed him with it. The lunatic then took possession of the mans revolver, and continued upon his wild career through the city, ir- ing right and left as he ran. A num- Der of police and gendarmes started in pursuit. emptying their rifles and reVolyers at the maniac, who was eventually shot down, but not until he had seriously wounded three per sons. The noise of the firing caused panic, and the doors of houses and shops were hastily shut. The excite ment did not subside for some hours.

MUCH NEED OF
 SEVERAL DAYS RAIN
Earth is Dry to Depth of Over a Foot
 Roads Are Very Dusty.

In the present dry spell automobil- ists who travel the Norwich to New London road through Montville are finding much to complain of in the conditions of this stretch of highway, which they say is one of the worst anywhere around here for roughness and dustiness. At the same time troll ley car patrons are finding much dis comfort from the immense clouds of dust arising when an auto gets out in front and blankets their car all the way along with a dense cloud of the finely powdered dust spelling the com fort of their pleasure riding. The auto riders and drivers don't want to take the dust of the trolley cars, but complain that the road is so full of rocks that it is dangerous to drive their machines fast enough to beat the cars out Mohegan hill is com plained against as one of the worst pieces of road on record.
 A gardener of the city stated Tues day evening that the earth was dry down IA inches, and that two or three days of good rain were needed to make any impression at the present time.

NORWICH TOWN
Time When Chelsea Was Sheepwalk
 Recaled-News in General.

Miss Caulkins says that flor the space of seventy years after the set clement of the town the greater part of Chelsea (now Norwich) was tech nically sheepwalk, belonging to the inhabitants of the east end of the town and used bys them for the, pasturage oi cattle" It was all 'inclosed with a general fence. A cartway through il was allowed" and in 1880 "a pair of bars connected with this cartway was maintained by the town" A number of sheepwalks were laid out in differ ent parts of the town, but gradually the land was divided up and sold.
 But as late as 1792 there was some of the land still called by that name for in the Norwich Packet of that date there is this advertisement:
 "50 acres of Woodland lying in Norwich called the Sheepwalk. Fol Sale. Dan Throop."
