AUTOTRUCk WRECKED.
Five Men Have Close Call When Ma chine PIunses Off Fomfret Street Hill

An automobile truck, heavily loaded with furniture, was wrecked and five men had a narrow escape from serious injury Sunday evening at 5.30 on Fomfret street hill when the big ve- hicle became unmana geable and plunged off the highway finally, top bling over against a giant ash tree.
 James Heminway of New Bedford was driving the truck, which is the property of the firm of which he is a member and beside him on the seat were John Cow. owner of the goods, and a helper. Two other helpers were riding on the load. When the truck keeIed over the three men were pin- ned between the seat and the tree and were unable to extricate themselves for as much as twenty minutes. Cow was the only one injured to any ex- tent; though the others were shaken up and bruised. He, sustained broken collar bone and two broken ribs. He was treated by Dr. s. D. Overlook and Monday morning was able to proceed to Wi1hmantic,, to which city the truck was pound-from New Bedford, where MT. Cow has been resident for 27 years.
 Tho furniture was badly smashed and the damage to the truck will be from $a10 to $300 In it's wild flight before upsetting the big truck struck a telephone poie and broke it into three sections.

PLANS TO COMBAT JUVENILE
 CRIME IN LONDON
Which Has Become More Apparent Since the Commencement of War.

London. Nov. 13.-Plans are being considered to combat the great in crease in juvenile crime which has be- come more apparent since the com mencemen, of war. Home Secretary Samuel met about fifty leading repre- sentatives of boys and girls brigade organizations to discuss what he de- scrlbed as a very urgent and very difficult problem. The king and queen had expressed their grave concern at the increase of juvenile offences and hoped that adequate measures be taken to deal with the evil.
 MT. Samuels thought the war had encouraged the spirit of adventure among the boys, darlened streets gave facilities for wrong doing and in the absence Of so many millions of fath- CTS on war service there had been a
 weakening of home influence. It had been found that the influence of some moving pictures encouraged the spirit Of lawlessness and he proposed to es- tablish a central official censorship cf all motion-p picture plays which he hoped might check some of the abuses. At the same time he thought much of the trouble arose from nisdirected energy and proposed to carefully con- slider various suggestions which were put forward by the representatives of the organization and by Sir R. Baden Powell, organizer of the Boy Scout movement.

 rains, the attacking troops made good
 progress, ill No Mans Land, the mud
 having partially dried in the last two

 South of the Ancre the British line swept northeast to the river bank op- posfte Beaucourt, cutting off the re- maining fragment Of the German po- sition around St. Pierre Divion, while simultaneously Beaumont-Hamel was attacked from the opposite bank All the positions of the Germans north of the Ancre were of exceptional strength, Beaumont-Hamel eoualling Thiepva1 In the extent and security of it's labyrinth of dugonts. while the German engineers have been laboring constantly for more than two years to make the deIensss pr wnion this was was a profusion of connected machine gun redoubts, elaborate telephone and electric light systems and great cav erns capable of she1tering companies Of infantry.

The committees consisting of Mrs. A. M. Brown, Mrs. R. F. Cheney and Miss Martha Brewster appointed by Anne Brewster Tanning chapter, D. A. R.. at recent meeting, is making ar- engagements to dedicate the large stone on the farm of Miss Mary Harvey which originally marked the northeast bound of the town of Norwich
 The first deed dates back to 1859 and this deed was afterwards ratified and confirmed by Owaneca, sachenn of the Mohegans. There is description of the stone in the Norwich land rec ords of 1Z34. When Preston and Plafnfleld settled their boundary. ii, some way 8 triangular piece of land was left out and is now in Griswold. The stone is on this land and should have been the bound between Plain field, Canterbury and Preston. But it was not used for some unknown req . son and although a historic landmark, yet at the present day it marks no boundary. It is but a short distance from the railroad and trolley tracks and can be seen easily as soon as the bushes are cleared away. The D, A, R. chapter has permission of the own.
