Chow Dog Fights
 Captor In Water
Animal Wounds Coachman Who Interrupts Wild Life of Mrs.
 John H. Tyson's Pet

Greenwich, July 31-The chow dog owned by Mrs. John H. Tyson. of Riverside, that got away early in June, and had since been living a wild life in the vicinity of his former home, was captured Saturday after noon by Frank Robinson, coachman for. J. Langloth of New York. The man will receive s100 reward offered wife's pet, and incidentally will have his doctors bills paid also, for he will bear scars to his death as a re- suit of his capture of the animal.
 The dog, through lack of care has recently resembled a bear, and has scared many people Last week a hunting party started after him and drove him from the woods toward the Riverside Yacht club. Here four men found him Saturday. feasting on stolen chickens, but the dog ran to a rock and dived off into deep water.
 MT. Robinson, who was one of them, swam in after the chow and a battle in the water ensued, resulting in the animal being brought ashore, knocked senseless for a time by the coach- mans fist and the man having two bad wounds in one arm and finger nail torn off by the dogs attack Dr. Austin of Sound Beach, dressed the injuries.
 The dog will be given a course of treat tment to tame him again, after which he will be restored to Mrs. Ty- son, provided that in the meantime the wanderlust does not seize him again.

TROLLEY OFF TRACKS
 COMMUTERS AT BEACH
 LATE FOR THEIR WORK

A trolley off the track about mid way between Boards Corner, Milford, and Walnut Beach, played havoc with the schedules of the beach commuters, this morning. The jigger bound for the beaches and which makes the re- turn arriving in this city shortly be- fore 8 o'clock took to the road way, digging up that passage to a great extent. The car turned half way round, burying itself into both tracks and into the roadbed. Traffic to both sides was blocked for some time, the wreckers from this city taking over an hour to set the car right. In the meanwhile, after a short delay passengers were sent around the trol- ley. and in that way reached their destinations. The hold up caused dis appointment to not a few who had anticipated taking the boat trip to New York, while a few of the offices and stores about the business center reported tardy members. Y
