LOOKS LIKE ATTEMPT
TO WRECK EXPRESS.
State of Maine Ran Into Open and
Locked Switch at Worcester.

Engineer George Kilburne of the
State of Maine express, who lives in
New London, escaped injury, although
his fireman was hurt in an accident
to the train as it was leaving Worces-
ter, south bound, Tuesday morning Ia
lbs o'clock.
A. switch was opened and locked and
the train, which was just leaving for
New York and had attained a speed
Of about 20 miles an hour, ran into
the open switch and onto the siding
where it crashed into thre freight
cars. one of them being full of coal,
one of these cars was thrown over a
IL foot embankment and smashed to
pieces while the other two cars were
thrown from the track and reduced to
kindIing wood. The wreckage caught
fire from the headlight of the engine
and the fire department was called
out. After q short delay the express
proceeded.
The engine of the express was in
charge Of Engineer Kilburne and the
fireman was Ario Meigs of 70 Mechan-
ic street, New Haven. Fireman Meigs'
right foot was caught in the floor of
the cab and his toe crushed. He was
removed to the Worcester hospital,
where his toe was amputated and
he was later sent to his home In New
Haven.
Engineer KiTburne said he believed
an attempt was made to wreck the
express.

BRISK BUSINESS IN
STATE AUTO DEPARTMENT.
Pleasure Cars Registered at the Rate
of 400 Per Week.

The business az the automobile
department of the ONCE of the sec
rotary Of state continues to be very
brisk. For the past few weeks pleas
| ure cars have been registered at the
rate Of 400 a week. In addition to
these cars there have been registered
from twelve to fifteen commercial
cars a. day and the same number of
motorcycles. It is an interesting
fact that the number OF operators
licenses is running ahead of the reg
istration. This is due to the fact
that the owners Of cars take ont OPP
orators licenses for the female
members of their families.
The increase IN the business at the
department 6s accounted for by the
large number Of people Of means
from New York an dother places
their cars with them and of course
spend the summer. They bring
must obtain licenses.
II the business keeps up for the
next month or so it is expected that
the total receipts OF the department
80, will exceed the estimate which
placed the total at nearly 100000
more than the total amount received
during the previous fiscal year.
A New York family, whose sum-
mer home is in the southern part of
the state, took out recently seven
operators licenses for the chauffeur
mad for members Of the family.
There is perhaps no one more deeply
interested in the remarkable in
crease in the volume OF business at
the automobile department than
Every dollar Of the receipts Of the
department win be turned over to
him to be used on repairs of high
ways.

from Bristol. Tenn. tell of the marriage
there of Philip Hone lie Roy Jones and
Miss Margaret FUrrcster Andrew, both
sixteen years old. who, accompanied by
Miss Andrews older sister, Miss be-
otrice, eloped from this city Saturday.
The boy and girl have been intimate
friends since infancy. That they were
seriously in love became evident Christ-
mas. when lie Roy, as the boy Is known
gave Miss Margaret a handsome en-
gagement ring.
Don't be silly goose" Mrs. Andrew
said to the youthful pair. lie BOY,
you are not full-fedged boy yet, and.
Margaret. You are a child. child, 1t. .,o
voted attention. He was being IN,
structed by tutor at his home. and
Margaret attended fashionable tinish,
ing school. However, the two managed
70 meet constantly.
The Andrew sisters. to hoodwinls their
mother. got her to plan a dance. She
was busy with these arrangements
Saturday when the girls announced
the afternoon. Meantime lie ROY who
was yell supplied with money. had pur-
chased three round-trip tickets to
Bristol. Also he had engaged two COM
partments in a sleeping car. one for
himself and one for the sisters.
The sisters had packed q trunk and
obtained a rope by which they had
hoped to lower 1t out of their window
on the third floor Of the residence. The
trunk, however, was too heavy for
them and they had to satisfy them
selves with handbag. which would ac-
commodate little more than two
toothbrushes.
"Good-by. mother: we are off to the
theateP," tley called to Mrs. Andrew.
In the library on the first floor they
met their father. He asked:
"Wherc are you goirg?"
Leroy, Il. touring car. had just
driven to the front of the house. 1t
was raining hard. The girls got to the
stoop. and Margaret looked back and
called out:
I'VE are going to elope.'
Before Mr.. Andrew could act. the
girls were in the machine and 1t wes
breaking speed laws
Neither the Juneses nor the Andrews
are so angry over the elopement that
the children will not be received and
blessed on their return home.
