 Throughout the case Attorney Berry laid particular stress on the points covered by the questions.
 Attorney Berry contended that the insulator which broke. letting down a wire that later was the cause of the death of Emil Jones, while he was a passenger on a car of the Connecticut company between Mechanicsville and Putnam. on the night of July IS, of this year, was of standard type and of the best quality known and if it broke because of some hidden defect that could not be discovered and guarded against the company was not guilty of negligence, having exercised due care in inspection of the line.
 The jury in their answer to Attor- ney Berry's question agreed that the defect could not be discovered by a reasonably careful inspection and the exercise of the highest degree of care: but their answers to the questions as to whether the motorman saw the hanging wire as soon as could reason ably be expected of him and as to whether he stopped the car as soon as he could, are answered in the neg ative, thereby recording their opinion that the responsibility for the accident was not wholly due to the defect in the insulator in the overhead wire
 After the verdict, MT. Jones, re- lieved of heavy nervous strain. spoke that while the result of the suit would not give him back his boy 1t would aid him in caring for another son, who is fll

Improves Road Which Has Long
 Needed Attention.

A great improvement has been brought about in the road at. Liberty Hill, near the schoolhouse. At this particular point a bad sliding ledge cropped out above ground and made the roadway very bad and unsafe at times. It has been the custom to haul loam upon this stretch of road for twenty five years or more at cost of from $7 upward per annum.
 Various boards of selectmen have threatened to attend to the road as it should be and have always passed it up until at last R. P. Burgee, select man for the North Society of the town, got busy, and with a force of men and teams has made the road the best within the memory of the oldest inhabitant. He had the sliding ledge blasted out and by filling in below the ledge has reduced the grade.
 The road is very generally used, particularly by the residents of the South society. Many of the citizens
