The Hornet's Foot
 Was Red Hot
And as a Result Wallace Mansir had the Most Trying Experience of
 


 His EventfuI Life.
 Wallace Mansir had an experience Wednesday noon that he will not soon forget. While raking hay on a horse rake on the Bullard place, on the out skirts of North Canaan village, the rake ran into nest of white hornets. If there is one thing that can beat a white hornet on the sting. humanity has yet failed to find it. A nest of yellow jack cts is bad enough, but nestfull of white hornets is a double distilled comb ination of electricity and dynamite in action.
 That's what Mansir thought when the hornet struck him and when another and yet another got a jab at his anatomy poor human nature could stand no more. Mansir started to dismount from the sulky rake, but just at this juncture a hornet struck the horse and drove 8 sharp stinger into the restless animal to the quick. Then one hornet followed another until drove settled on the horse and began stinging.
 With the first impact from that hot wire of the hornet the horse jumped It was at this instant that Mansir was in the act of dismounting. He fell un der the rake and the rake teeth gathere, him in close embrace and as ii horse started onssa run np the -Feaas Mansir was cradled within the curv, of the rake teeth and was rolled ov, and over and every revolution of tkt rake over the dusty road meant d fresh bump on the victims body. The horse ran some distance before he was stopped Mansir was badly shaken up but so fa as learned no bones were broken.

 Man
ACCUSED, OF STEALING
 A "CAMEL" HORSE.
How the Case Was Conduc- ted-Graphic Illustra- tions by an Artist
 From Mars.

There was fun galore Thursday night at the lodge room in the Fuller block following the united bouquet given by the fraternal orders who are to tenant the new hall,
 It was the occasion of the Mock Trial, in which Paul Gurney, appeared to answer to the astonishing charge o6 stealing horse from Archie Adams. It was peculiar horse somewhat of freak, according to the testimony of numerous witnesses. They called it the ''camel horse," because of hump on its back. It was not just certain whether the accused drove the horse away dis guising it as donkey,aa testified by the Exalted Potentiate of the Ananias club, or whether he rode it under saddle, al some of the witnesses claimed, but the preponderance of testimony and the ex- hibits introduced tended to show that the latter procedure was the most ten- antable theory.

APPLY TO
 NEXT LEGISLATURE.
To Build the Trolley Road From Massachusetts to Ca naan. First Official Information Given on
 the Trolley Problem.

To secure, if possible, some official in- formation regarding the proposed exten- sion of the trolley line into this state from across the Massachuserts border, the managing editor of the NEWS wrote the executive department of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Rail road, asking if definite information could be given the NEWS as to where this trolley would enter the town of Canaan,
 The NEWS had a direct tip that when the trolley came here it would enter on the present steam road tracks at a point above the second crossing, and bhis tip, as published by the NEWS at this tine, is verified by the survey of the parties who have just finished the work heye.
 AS there has been some doubt express cd whether the line would really extend into Connecticut, the following letter will effectually settle that point. It is now only matter of time in securing legislative permit for the road 90 enter this state,-a matter that is pSTsly for nal, for there is little doubt h&at the permit will be granted. The lSsssr from headquarters follows:

The age of the horse was matter of some uncertainty. Dr. Corwin, Canaan's expert in such cases, was shown a set of large teeth, as it was nos clear to counsel whether the teeth belonged to the horse or belonged to the learned judge and had been care lessly laid on the table by his honor be- fore trying the case, as it is said to be sometimes his habit of doing in spirit of forRetfulness when confronted by a perplexing legal problem. While the teeth closely resembled those of the Judge, the doctor decided they belonged to the horse and thus complex problem was settled.
 A. J. Wigglesworth appeared as at- torney for the prisoner and w. D. Shell dou handled the case as attorney for the state. Both of these gentlemen filled the roll with legal dignity that would have done credit to any Canaan bar.

MR.. ECCLES CONFERS
WITH THE FARMERS

Representatives of the sugar beet
farmers OF Weber county held a con-
ference with President David Eccles
OF the Amalgamated Sugar company
yesterday, for the purpose of learn
ing what the sugar company can do
this year by way of raising the price
per ton for sugar beets. They repre-.
sented to Mr. Eccles that the beet
growers felt that they should get at
least $I75 a ton for beets. and that
better railroad facilities should be
afforded them In tho shipment OF the
beets to the factory.
In answer to their suggestions, Mr..
Eccles stated 1t would be quite i'm
possible for the company to pay s4.75
per ton for beets and make the fac
tory operate at profit to the stock
holders That the farmers would
have TO content themselves with the
prices oil last wear If they desired to
market their beets with the Anal
gamated company II is a question
altogether. he contcnded. of whether
they could raise beets at the price
the company could AFFORD to pay. and
whether they desired to sell their
product to the Amalgamated com
pany
Regarding the question OF guaran-
teeing better railroad facilities. Mr..
Eccles told the beet raiserS that he
could not do that because the matter
OF operating railroads, over which the
beets were hauled was not within his
reach: but he told them that he
would do all in his power to get I'm
proved facilities. and would cooper
nte with the farmers in an appeal to
the railroad companies for better ac-
commodations.
