Vicious Bun-frogs
Guard Family AT
Winsted
WINSTED. Conn. April

WINSTED, Conn, April IL.
&C. G. Middlebrook, former
United States marshal, is
guarded by bullfrogs in his
cottage at Highland Lake.
Owing to spring freshets, the
lake is several feet above its
normal level and extends back
among the piles on which the
Middlebrook cottage stards.
The largest bullfrogs In the
lake have sought out this shell
tered spot and dwell beneath
the cottage in peace and amity
with its occupants. So long as
the family is alone there the
bullfrogs croak contentedly, the
mighty bass chorus being audi
BILE for miles.
If a stranger approaches,
however, every bullfrog falls
silent. The Middlebrooks have
become so accustomed to the
din that they wake up the mo-
ment it stops. Mr.. Middlebrook
said that even If the bullfrogs
did not attack a burglar any
such intruder would find the
family awake il he called.
