The superior court for Washington county. Judge Christopher M. Lee, ing at s.30. ready to proceed with the trial of the case of Thomas and Mar garet Conway against the town of Westerly, for alleged damage by over flow of surface water to their prop erty in Tower street Upon motion of Attorney Rathbun of counsel for plaintiff, the court and jury visited the scene of the alleged damages, return ing to the court room at 10.45.
 Mrs. Margaret Conway testified that when she bought the property in Tow CT street, fourteen years ago, there were no houses there. Soon thereafter she had erected the house in which she now resides, built second house five years ago and a third house two years ago. The surface water had always flowed from the highway over her land but the volume had materially increased, causing damage within the past five years. since there had been change in the grade of highway and since she built the second house and driveway. Every time there was heavy rain her property was overflowed do- ing damage to the driveway and grad ing and in consequence of this over flow of water one of the houses has been tenant1ess since last Christmas. She said that during the past five years the property had been damaged to the amount of S2o0 or $500
 To queries from Attorney Barney, 
 testified that she filled in some of the land twelve years ago and cleared away brush to build two of the houses. Vose's pond was opposite her property and the natural outlet was through her land and when the pond was filled considerable water flowed through the ditch she had built When she built two of the houses they were below the street level. When the highway grade was changed in front of her property, the water damage became greater than before. Mrs. Conway said the place was a swamp when she bought it and that the cellars of the three houses were quite damp.
 Elihu Chesebro, supervisor of high ways, testified that the road in front of the Conway property had been crowned up" about five years ago, and that the change thus made was no cause for sending more surface water upon the Conway land than before but that changes made in the Conway property tended to distribute water in different directions, instead of letting it all empty into the swamp as it had always done.
 Charles Ferrara and Thomas Will jams testified that considerable surface water flowed upon the Conway prop erty, but in their opinion no more than did prior to the improvement of- the highway five years ago.

Secretary John E. Groff of the Rhode Island food and druq commission,

Secretary John E. Groff of the Rhode Island food and drug commission, whose analyses of samples of whiskey secured in Westerly resulted in the finding of fifty per cent. of wood al- cohol in one of the samples. has filed with Attorney General Greenough a written report of his findings.
 Secretary Croft declares that puri- fled wood alcohol and Columbian spir- its were deadly poisons, and adds that there is a lack of knowledge not only among drinking men but among many of those engaged in selling alcoholic drinks regarding wood alcohol Proba- b1y the words purified wood alcohoP' has something to do with it. Wood alcohol, he says, whether it is crude and impre, or whether it is pure, is a poison. People who are willing to risk alcohol is used, whether it be under the name of Columbia spirits. or some other name, is safe because it is pure.
 Such, however, he adds. is not the case Purified wood alcohol is of a different composition from ordinary all cohol. Purification does not change it in any form and it is a deadly poison.
 Attorney General GreenOugh has in structed George H. Cross, coroner for the town of Charlestown, to hold an inquest next Tuesday in the death of Michael Riley, who died from wood all cohoI poisoning. This is the case where it is alleged that the poisoned whis- key was purchased from John Di FOn- ti, who pleaded guilty to the maintain ing a liquor nuisance. He is under a bond of $1 ,000 for appearance at the September term of the superior court.

came of the pig, and Judge Lee laugh -ingly said he did not know and did not care what become of the pig. In response to a query from Attorney Burdick the witness said he carried the pig home on his back right after the collision.
 George Sanco, the third man in the Robar wagon, testified that besides the men there was a pig two months old on one seat in the wagon Robar and Salameno were on the seat and witness was in back of wagon with the pig He corroborated the testi- mony of the other witnesses as to the speed and position of both vehicles at the time of collision, and of the throw ing out of the occupants One of the wheels of the wagon was on Salame- nos shoulder when overturned.
 He first saw MT. Coy's team about sixty feet distant. When Salameno was thrown he was struck by the for ward wheel of the wagon on the right side. Witness saw Salameno when he was thrown out at the time witness was out of the wagon on the ground, as he and Robar were thrown out first.
 At this point the state rested. and the first witness called for defendant was Dr. J. Devere Barber, who had made examination of Salameno Thurs day afternoon. Judge Lee stated that defendant does not claim any perma- nent injury, but for pain and suffer ing and that the testimony of the doc tor was not essential to the case.
 The jury was retired at the request of Attorney Burdick, who made mo- ton that the court direct the jury to bring in verdict for defendant, but this motion was quickly withdrawn, and the case goes to the jury without testimony for defendant.
 Court adjourned to 9.30 o'clock. Fri day morning when the arguments will be commenced. forty minutes being all lotted to each side
