Too Much Oil.

G. M. Gest of Noroton, has figured that the city of Stamford is indebted oi. eo nm lo, in the sum Of of S242.4 4a The rotor Hill One day, just after a lfb- ern application of oil had been spread MT. Gest entered his automobile at Stamford and proceeded homeward At a place where the application of oil had been especially generous, the motor car skidded, and finally twisted that a couple of wheels had been wrenched off To replace them cost $120. and MT. 3Gest was without the use of his car for twelve days. He esti-. mates that he ought to be reconpensed to the extent of $1O a day for the time the machine was at the repair shop And then, after it had been repaired, the car did some more stunts on that greasy road, and that accounts for the balance of the bill of S242.40.

 Emery Wheel Burst. A bad accident occurred at the works of the R. N. Bassett Co, in Shelton, Monday afternoon, through which w. H. E. Wilson. a machinist came near losing an eye and being killed The accident was caused by the bursting of an emery wheel on which Mir. Wilson was grinding and polishing some dies In bursting, one piece of the wheel flew diagonally to the right and upwards, striking MT Wilson a glaneipg blow under the right eye, cltting gash in the cheek and badly brulsing the cheek-bones ing glasses, and the glasses were broken and a part of the glass forced into the eye. It was at once seen that the eyesight was irretrievabIy injured by the flying pieces.

KING GEORGE SHOT LORD KILMARNOCk
 DURING A HUNT
Especial from United Press.)

London, Sept. 2.-Klng George, known as the best hunting sport in England. is believed today to be the one who accidentally shot Lord Xiii marnock, during a hunt recently at Dal1ater, near Balmoral Costle. Sir Victor Mackenzie was the third mem Der of the party but as the King was in highly nervous state when he reached home, and the details of the shooting have been suppressed as far as possible, it is assumed that it was the Kings gun that peppered Kill marnock.
 Kilmarnock was injured in the ear, nose and arm and his eyeglasses were broken. His LOrdShip will be none the worse for his experience.

PRESIDENT AT BANGOR.

Ellsworth. Me. July 2i.-President
Taft is suffering from a severely strain
ed right ankle. Despite the eXeruciat-
ing pain which was evidenced by de-
cided limp and facial grimaces each
time he had to climb I'm or out of an
automobile or train. the President car
ried out the rather exacting program
which had been arranged for him sat
urday 1t included speech. an auto
mobile ride and luncheon in i3aneor
and a speech and reception here. Mr..
Taft and the members of his party are
guests of Senator Hale at his Ellis
worth home.
The injury to the Presidents ankle
came while he was playing golf Oh
the links Of the <ebo Valley Club at
Bar Harbor Friday morning. He was
climbing a steep grassy slope leading
to one of the green's when his right
foot turned beneath him. There was
some pain at the time. but Mr.. Taft
thought nothing of it and continued
his game. He suffered little or no dis
comfort during the afternoon, but Sat

flower dressed the injured ankle and
made a thorough examination. He de-
cared there was 10 general sprain. but
bad Soran of some of the tendons.
He advised the President to rest on
board. but the enga -ements of the day
were OF such a character that he could
not very Wen cancel them.
MI Taft carried them out to the last
detail even to standing for half an houl
after speaking at Hancock hall here
late Saturday afternoon to shake hands
with several hundred friends and
neighbors of Senator Hale. AS a re
suit of his constant going the Presi-
dents ankle was worse at night and he
suffered quite keenly. There is no
thought. however, that the hurt will be
allowed to interfere with the plans for
the remainder of the cruise. The
Maine trip was largely planned by
Mrs. Taft, according to a statement in
one Of tie Presidents speeches Satur-

the case. Deputy Lessor took the
young man to Skowhegan where he
will be given a hearing.
Another arrest was made here dur
ing the day which. although not for a
serious offence, caused almost as much
excitement for a time as that of young

features thereof from $9.400,0O0 to SILL

While no more automobiles were i'm
ported last year than during the previ-
Gus IL months. their value in each case
having been S2,900000. this is ac-
counted for by the fact that most

that these boats either reached land or
were picked up by the warships.
