VIOLENT STORM
Wind, Rain ano Lightning on Regular
Rampage.

The storm of Monday night was the
"nastiest" disturbance that has been
experienced i'll this region in long
time; the rain came down in solid
streams and was blown through the
sides of the houses by the hurricane
wind that came with it. 1t beat under
the shingles of the roofs and flooded
the attics, and forced its way into
every slightest crevice; it tiattened
corn and other vegetation; broke off
big and little branches and twigs from
trees, and Uttered the streets and lawns
with firewood and rubbish.
The heavy rain and windstorm was
chaperoned by terrific thunder and
lightning demonstration that added TO
the strain on the nerves OF the nervous.
The thunder was ceaselesS and deafen.
ing, and the lightning sharp, vivid and
binding
In various places in this vicinity,
frees were struck by lightning but nc
very heavy damage is reported. The
Hub" Stanton house OH the west side
nf the Housatonic river. near the power
house, was hit and somewhat burned
and damaged.
At East Canaan a large tree in front
of Miss Minnie Briggs home was struck
and slivers from it shattered large
window in the front of the house,
scattering fragments of glass all
through two rooms. The severity and
duration OF the storm were unusual.

on account of the gypsy moth and the
brown-tail moth in New England be-
came effective July 1, and copies of the

inspected of egg clusters as well as such
forest products as logs, poles, etc.

Mrs. Mary Hatch Willard, National

Mrs. +. n. Garvin, Norfolk, chairman
for the state Of Connecticut, appeal to
all, who, like our Lord, would go about
doing good, to help i'll the blessed work
of relieving the torn and mangled vic
Tins of the awful carnage now raging
across the sea.
We are powerless to stop the appal-
ling and diabolical waste of human life,
but we can help bind mp the wounded.
Unlimited quantities of old linen and
cotton bandages are required for this
work. You may not have much, but
nearly everybody has some WORKOUT
cotton or linen goods that can be used
in this work of the Master.
= Any amount, large or small, will
help. Will you help? Miss Saygers,
our visiting nurse, will be glad to re-
ceive any such material.
Mrs. Garvin is very anxious that Con-
necticut shall not lag behind in this
work of mercy. Look over your stock
of linen and cotton goods-do it today
and bring what you have to Miss
Saygers. We will see that it reaches
the wounded of Europe's battlefelds.

Left it There.

A big yellow dog. carrying a market
basket by his teeth, trotted along up
Main street Friday morning, ahead III
his mistress, who was coming ip'o the
shopping district. At the Camp Ross
bridge the dog left the sidewalk, leaped
down into the brook, and LET go the
basket, which tioated downstream
under the bridge. The lady comm and
ed the dog in vain to retrieve" the
basket-he simply looked up at her,
licked his chops, and grinned in dis.
obedience. Tie lady pleaded. coaxed,
threatened and stamped her foot, but
the dog only grinned the more.

Camp and family live, came across fine

AUTOS SMASH
incompetent Chauffeur IN Torrington
Hits Briggs Car.

The danger from inexperienced or in
competent chauffeurs had another illus
tration Saturday night, at about 9
O'Clock, near Torrington, when a col
lision' between the Briggs auto livery
REQ car and bran new Maxwell tour
ing car owned by Torrington man,
occurred OH bridge and resulted i'll
damage to both cars.
The Briggs Car, Idrived by it's regular
chauffeur, Ernest L. Babb, was bring
ing home six of the baseball players of
the East Canaan team from New Mil
ford, where they played that day, and
had reached point short distance
the other side of Torrington, where a
small stream is, crossed by bridge. AS
it approached the bridge, the driver OBJ
served that the other car, which was
coming in the opposite direction, with
three passengers, was not turning out
as far as it should in order to pass on
the narrow bridge. The structure is
wide enough to permit the passing of
two autos providing the drivers know
their business. Babb is an experienced
and careful driver, and turned his
machine out until it almost touched the
guard rail at the side, but the Maxwell.
driven by its owner, who was plainly
at fault, crashed into it.
The Maxwell machine had every
spoke ripped out of its forward wheel
on the left side, its front axle bent
double, and was otherwise damaged.
The Briggs auto had it's fender and rum
ming board bent and broken son ewhat,
and its forward axle slightly bent.
Fortunately nobody in either car was
injured.
Babb was able to drive his car to a
Torrington garage. while Eddie Adam
drove down. later in the night and
brought back the passengers. On the
way down he had an adventure of his
own. A horse and wagon, chauffeur d
by a drunken man, ran into him, this
side of Torrington, with disastrous COIL
sequences to the horse. drawn outfit.
The wagon was wrecked and the jag
thrown out After picking himself up
the intoxicated driver asked Eddie cit
anything had happened. The auto
received no injuries from this collision,
which was clearly the fault of the team
driver.
The Briggs machine was brought
home the next day. and the trivial
damage easily repaired.

Can any city in this state equal this
