Joe NailI Twisted

Former Editor Joseph H. Vaill, of Winsted, now of Philadelphia writes a letter to the Inquirer, as follows.
 It's pretty late 1n life for one of my age to announce new discoveries in the realms of geography and astronomy, but unless am mistaken, and perhaps I au, have found 6 place where the sun rises in the west and sets in the east. My wife and have been spend ing few weeks up in Maine, and un- less the sun deceived me it rose every morning in the west. We were dom- ioiled on the shore of Caseo bay about a mile to the eastward of Ceus1n's Island. The polar star was visible every night and appeared to be where, If it fell, 1t would cause commotion on the island of Porto Rico, or whereabouts, whereas, by my preconceived ideas it would nat. urally fall, if at all, in the region of Hudson's bay Even now I am unable to understand why was turned around in the points of compass as was up in Maine, for it's still prohibition state. Tn order that my Winsted friends may understand that my head is still as level as it used to be, will say that the farm er's wife at the place where we stayed said that what people said was north al ways appeared to her to be south. Her remark let's me out! Just think how it would seem to Winsted people if the sun rose from over behind Winchester Gen. ter and set over beyond Barkhamsted Then Litchfeld and New Boston would have ro change places, and so would Torrington and Sandisfeld. I'm glad to get back to Philadelphia, where the sun rises out of New Jersey and sets over !n Ohio.

BOY RUN OVER
Miraculous Escape ot Boy who Stole
 Novel Ride

Wesley Prentice, ten year old son of Fife Cudney Prentice, had narrow es. cape from serious injury Monday, which should teach that ubiquitous young gen tleman the virtue of keeping out of hazardous situations. AS it was, he re- ceived bruises and abrasions that will give him something to think about for some time to come.
 Frank Snyder's team-Henry Miller, chauffeur-was hauling two wagon loads of hay down West Main street, the rear wagon fastened to the former by the 'neap." Young Prentice. seeing a chance for a novel ride, ran out and climbed upon the neap. or connecting pole between the two loads. In some way he lost his hold and fell in the road. Fortunately he fell in such 8 way that the wheels of the rear wagon did not run over him, though they ran along the side of his leg and body, over the outer edge of his clothing, and painfully soraped his flesh from foot to shoulder, lnflioting some severe wounds. He was picked up and carried home and Dr. Camp was summoned to attend him. It was miraculous escape from broken legs and arms. if not instant death.

Oil Kills Flies

Opponents of the oiled streets may find consolation in the finding of a Lenox entomologist, who declares that the absence of flies along oiled high ways is due to the destruction of the eggs and larva by the application of tarva aud the by-products of oils which are being used to prevent dust. After conducting a series of experiments the Lenox man has found that there is almost total absence of the stable fly (stomoxys calcitranus L), which is the biting fly. This fly breeds in horse manure and in warm decaying vegeta- tion, which IS found on the highways Horse manure seems to be the favorite larval food, and everywhere roadways offer places for the stable fly to lay its eggs. The Lenox experimenter says the tarvia which has been used there has practically killed the breeding places of the stable fly, and that the appearance of the house fly is considerably less than before. Another species, sometimes called the small house fly, has almost entirely disappeared along the oiled roais

The, exhibition was witnessed with intense interest by the townspeople. who were also well pleased with the promptness and proficiency shown by the boys in handling the ap- paratus and connecting with the hy- drant. Although no official time was taken, the work was so quickly and ef- aciently done as to give sufficient as. suraroe that a fire would have but little chance to get in its diabolical work after the alarm is given.

SHELDON'S TRAINED BULL
Makes it Exciting for Pease and Scam
 erhorn on Toms Hill.

"Bill'' Sheldon, known i'll fraternal circles as District Deputy Grand Master of Odd Fellows and Worshipful Master of the local Masonic lodge, IS anticipat- ing strenuous campaign of lodge work, the coming season, and is preparing for 1t, with characteristic foresight.
 It is we'll known among local lodge goers, that the lodge goat was over worked, last fall and winter, and went lame and wind broken before the season ended. MT. Sheldon did what he could to get the animal into condition for the coming season, but the poor old "Blllle" had been subjected to such degree of wear and tear that it has been impossible to get any spirit or gumption into him hence MT. Sheldon has put him in with flock of geese. and proceeded to make other arrangements. He has a young and Iusty Durham bull in training to succeed the goat, and the oritter prom ises to prove an efficient substitute, and make the conferring of degrees an ex- hilarating and impressive function, and one that the prospective candidates for degrees will remember to their dying day. E
 This bull now roams the side of Toms Hill, on MT. Sheldon's farm. in the society of about dozen cows, which h 6 defends against all corners. He looks up on everything and everybody that in vades his domain as an enemy to be summarily annihilated. Thus it happens that Fred Scamerhorn, who is building reservoir on CHI Pease's tract. which comprised a part of the original Sheldon domain, has found it necessary to add to other accomplishments the arts and graces Of bull-fghter.
 The bull first discovered Scamerhorn and Pease last week, and promptly pre- pared to confer the first degree. He beloved, snorted and paved the ground frantically, but Fred, not being candidate, didn't understand the signs, and failed to give the proper responses, whereupon the bull advanced few paces. repeated the performance, with more yehemence than ever, and seemed so be getting ready to close in and give an imitation of the late Mir. lube A Lum, when Fred began to take an interest in the ceremonies. First he said s'.Bool' That didn't work Then he looked around for a tree to climb, but the only suee within easy distance was a slender sapling just stout enough to hold one, aad Pease was up in the top of that with all his arms and legs twist ed around 1t like d honeysuckle vine and shouting Run for it, Fredl" Run nothin'," said Fred, picking up an arm ful of stones. 1T can't run half as we'll as that bull can-let him do the run min, ,'' and hedeliberately walked toward the animal and opened fire on him with such fusillade that old Taurus turned tail and scampersd. for the tall timber, believing bloody murder as he went. The next day he came around again and opened up on the second degree. but met with no better encouragement. He again sought refuge in the woods ad- joining. with Fred twisting his tail into kinks at every jump. He ie persistent bull, however, and hardly a day passes without repetition of the performance.

EXCITING RUNAWAY
AUTO SCARES TEAM
 WITH HAZARDOUS RESULTS
Narrow Escape of Ladies in Surrey Henry Leach Makes Brave Dash and Diverts Team, but Gets Seri- OusIY Kicked.

Friday afternoon the team of Myron Andrus, of Sheffield. attached to hay rigging, was left standing, unhitched near the Canaan Mercantile Co.,. s store on Railroad street. An automobile came speeding along and frightened the team, which started to run away.
 The horses ran down into Main street, headed directly for 8 surrey in which three ladies were seated, in front of the Canield block, and crash seemed un- avoidable. Henry Leach, who saw the ladies' danger, ran out and grabbed one the rein of the runaway team, at great risk to himself. His vigorous pull caused the team to swerve from their course, and the hay rigging missed the surrey by bare inch. In performing the daring act, however MT. Leach re- ceived a vigorous kick from one of the horses, squarely in the breast, which b0wleds him oyer, in the street.
 The team ran down Main Street and turned in at the residence of Mrs. Hattie Peet, plunging across her we'll kept lawn; turned back into the street again and were stopped at the curb, without any serious damage having been done to either the horses on the wagon.
 Mrs. Peet's lawn, which is the best groomed lawn on the street, was consid- erably cut np by the horses hoefs and the wagon wheels.
 MT. Leach was severely bruised, by the hoofs of the runaway and has suffered some inconvenience since as a result The runaway caused considerable ex. citement and the slight damage that re- suited, in view of the possibilities, is considered remarkable.
