ITALIAN EARTHQUAKE SUFFERER IN NORWICH Vincenz Pedace Comes Here to Pass Last Days With Sons—Brother-in- law’s Family Delayed. Two Norwich men, Bruno Pedace, who lives on Central avenue, and Frank Pedace, a Franklin street bar- ber, took part in a happy reunion in New York last week, when they went there to meet their father, Vincenx Pedace, who was coming from Italy to live with his sons, having been driven out by the terrible earthquake which devastated Reggio, Calabria, on the 28th of last December. It was sixteen years since the ther, now T4 years old, had seen his boys, and he didn't know the younger of the two, Frank, when he saw them again in New York. To meet their father, the two young men hired a launch in New York and went down to meet the ship upon which he arrived. With them was their brother-in-law, expecting to meet his wife and three children, but for him the trip was a bitter disap- pointment, as this part of the family had been turned back at Naples. The children had to be vaccinated before going on board and the youngest was made so sick that the officiads would not allow it to be taken on board. The mother would not be separated from her children and stayed behind. They are expected to come over later. In the earthquake, the dwelling of the elder Pedace, as well as his ba- kery and macaroni shop, were all lev. eled nearly to the ground, but luek- 1y none of the family was killed, al though the smallest child had a ver: narrow escape. When the house col- lapsed, the mother and the two older children escaped through a hole in the roof, but the baby was buried in the debris under the bed, from which its cries could be heard, when the elder Pedace and his dayghter returned to the ruins. After four hours of digging they got the baby out, very weak and faint, but it soon recovered. In a house near by, a cousin of the family, Andrea Pedace, a rising ar- tist and professor of sculpture and drawing in the Reggio high school, was found crushed to death sitting at the table where he was engaged upon some work that he was to exhibit in Rome in 1811. A sister of the artist was also killed in the same house. The elder Pedace has been a-sol- dier nearly all his life, having served in armies of most of tae European countries and speaks several lan- gueges, but has never bhee nto the United States befor Now that he has lost his home ! 15210 he ex- gett! to end his days with his sons ere.

A cold, a strain, a sudden wrench, A little cause may hurt the kidneys, Spells of backache often follow, Or some irregularity of the urine. A certain remedy for such attacks, A medicine that answers every call, Is Doan's Kidney Pills, a true spe- cific. $ Many Norwich people rely on it. Here is Norwich proof. Mrs, C. S, Benuett, living at 107 High Street, Norwich, Conn., says: “Some four or five years ago Mr. Bennett learned of Doan's Kidney Pills and after using them as directed for a short time, was greatly bemefited. Being # motorman, he is subject to a great deal of jarring, and this, together with the constant standing that Is required in his work, caused his back to ache, and as a result he suffered severely. If he would take cold it would settie on his kidneys and his misery would be ag- gravated. That his Kidneys were the cause of his suffering was piainly shown by the kidney secretions which were very irregular in action and un- natural in gppearance. Doap’s Kidney Pills brought him positive relief from all these difficulties, and he has relied upon this remedy to check any return of the trouble. Doan’s Kidney Pilis can be procured at N. D. Sevin & Son's drug store, and I am pleased to rec- ommend them.” For sale by all dealers. Price buc.

The drouth which i# lowering the lakes and streams and causing appre- hension lest Winsted suffer another water famine the early part of the coming winter has set most miuds on the water question. Warden E. F. Hitehcock has been looking up the records relating to manufacturers’ rights in Mad river west of the luke stream, and discovered that they are such as to give the borough no rights, practically, in the stream or in Ruge brook reservoir, which the borough built to increase Winsted’s water sup- ply. The manufacturers who control the rights can draw water from the reservoir, no matter what candition may exist in the borough. Today both Crystal and Highland lakes are lower than ome year ago, despite the fact that a foot of masonry was added to the height of Crystal lake last win- ter. At the rate the lakes are falling and without heovy rains this fall Winsted s destined to experience the worst drouth in its history.
