Misled by Lights. Night lights do not always convey appearance as they really are. The driver of an automobile that passed down Main street late Wednesday night put the car on top of a bank of dirt ex- cavated from a sewer ditch near the Cyr building before he realized that he had got his bearings twisted. A little farther up the street a man dodged another excavation of a similar nature, but that one was on the opposite side, a fact that led him to believe that the lights on the one he hit were on the same side. The car did not turn over, but it came near it, the spectators say. Chilly June. A wail is heard from farmers and gardenerg all over this section because of the unseasonable weather, which is hoiding back the crops in a way to discourage an optimist. It was so cold Thursday that top garments were nec- ;:flu.r\ and fires were started in many omes. FIRE WELL HANDLED. Good Management Serious Loss of Li ved the Borough and Property. The heartiest praise was given the | members of the Danielson fire depart- ment Thursday for the highly efficient mannmer in which they snuffed out the | fire in the Evans block duning the ear- ly morning hours, a fire which upon the arrivai of the department seemed to have made such progress as to be almost beyond control. The citizens of the borough may have a congratula- | tory session on the strength of the showing of the fire fighters. Danielson has had no fire in years that threat- enel to work such a degree of disaster ag did this one. Tt had a big start be- fore the alarm was sent in, was eating its way up into the big building where it started, ang because of its location hard to cope with. Uncertainty of n, just one little mistake, would have meant a big hole in that part of the business section. Chief A. P. Woodward and his men get the credit of doing the best plece of work ac- credited to the department in many vears. Backed by an ample supply of wa- ter, the men went into the fight with the knowledgq hat the odds against them were heavy, but with a determin- ation to win out in just the way they did. Chief Woodward directed that at- tack. Those who know the property and saw the conditions there at 1.30 Thursday morning are most generous in their praise of the execellent work of the department. Well directed streams driven by the full pressure of the Generai Putnam steamer were | poured in the flaming caldron at the | rear of the block, and the fire was con- Suad thers. Tausarains of M Somiens | Thursday showed that the windmill tower in the rear of the Hyde building wag ignited by the streams of flame | that shot out of the windows in the | Bvans building. The tower is stand- ing, but it is a wreck. New and second-hand furniture was piled in heaps in the damaged part of | the Evans building Thursday. It is | all in the cellar, where it fell when the floor crashed through. The new furni- ture, which was in the store of and Boston Dry Goods Company Offer Great Bargains.

Friends of Louis Bellerose will read with interest the following from a sketch in a recent issue of an Oak- land, Cal, paper: “Thirty-seven years an operator on the power end of Oakland street cars. “That is the record of Louis Belle- rose, who is 64, and has but the light- est sprinkling of gray in his hair. “Twelve years as the ‘crew’ of a bobtail horse car, 13 years as gripman on a cable and another dozen years a4s & motorman on a troll That is is the way Bellerose has ‘grown up’ with the system. It is not merely a matter of record in the matter of years, either. Th of being on the job for 37 years wit out a day's illness, a single accident or a single ‘oversleep,’ and all the while contented with your lot, and in possession of a happy family and more than a competence. Bellerose has mar aged to get out of life benefits in the same proportion as he has put into it efficient service and pleasure in his work. Mr. Bellerose came to Oakland with his wife on their honeymoon. They exvected to remain a few years. The only days he has #ad off duty since were spent on twe visits with rflluLl\’s in the east. ‘Louis looks as if he were good for at least another score of years—his father lived to be 90—at his chosen work, which he regards as empl ment worthy of any man’s enthusiasn Serving his employers and the public faithfully and carefully, getting pas- sengers to their destinations prompt- ly and safely, is looked up by Louis Bellerose as no mean accomplishment. He would take no more pains were he superintendent of the system. He is the sort of workman who looks upon the digging of a ditch as somehting worth doing well, and would try to @ig it just a little better than the other fellow. “A small fortune which Bellerose possesses would enable him to retire. But he can no more permanently re- move his hands from the controller, while life and energy last, than the broker can keep his fingers off the tape. But Bellerose's head lies easier ugon the pillow than does the brok- er’s.” - The long-time rut-a‘un:'uhfl in this Connecticut is Rev. U. ‘Wauregan. Not Antonio Vito's Horse.
