made of the case Of Gertrude A. VI ar dell vs. the town of Kiliirgiy, but it is tated that this ca se in which So many of Killingly's citizens are interested, will probably be heard during the present term of the superior court.
 It was estimated Saturday that
 more than an inch of rain fell from about o'clock Friday evening until s a. m. Saturday, when the wind shifted
 ii.to the northwest and blew in a storm of hail and, snow The great quantities of water that gusiled through Danielson's streets during the night ran off without causing any ma terial damage, though some cellars weer flooded. The rivers during Sat
 urday. were showing sims of rising ! under the steady inflow of water from seeding brooks and from the water l shed at large but the heavy ice was holding fast and showing no signs Of breaking up. The School street brook, | cause of great damage and irritation many times h the past, was taking | care of all the water that was coming I through it and not over7owing it's | banks. This was also true Of other | outlets for surplus water in the bor. | ough. but many drains were frozen | and the danger point was approa ched, |
 tions of Danieison.
 Shoveling brigades were out in force | in about every street in Danielson and 1 long gutter lines were opened up in an | effort to prevent flooding The great
 supply of water now available is being
 utilized by some Of the mills to furnish power, and thereby in material meas
 tire offsetting the shortage of coal.

 and Danielson Gas and Electric com
 pany at the Plainfield power station
 helped stave off for another period a threatened shortage of fuel There was only about 100 tons of, coal at the
