The census figures for the town of Killingly will show many interesting (facts when thev are made public. Par- | ticularly will this be true relative to the number of persons of allen birth now resident in this town. There have been many changes in the population ‘ot Killing}y since the census of 1900 was made. The Polish population will probably show the largest increase and the Lialian residents are much more numerows, than they were a decade [ago. The new census reports will also make, known the proportion of the races ‘that have taken up farms in Killingly during the past few years, for thefe have heen many changes in the ownership of icultural lands. Whether Killingly will show a loss or galn in_total population is a matter about whicl, there is & division of opin- ions. % Parish Covered Wide Territory.

Bullet from Rifle Hits Philip Loomis in Forehead—Reckless Target Shoot- ing by Two Youths. Philip Loomis, 10, son of Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Loomis of New Britain, died at the Day-Kimball hospital at Putnam Thursday night a few minutes after he had béen rushed there fromi Alexander's Lake, where he had been shot in the forehead with a rifle bail while out Towing along the north shore. The boy's death is chargeable to cither, Peter Bridges, 17, who is em- ploved by W. A. Thatcher, who occu- ples the Newton Phillips farm close by the scene of the accident, or to Ar- thur Waterhouse, 15, son of Edward Waterhouse of Attawaugan. This youthtul pair were on_ the top of an fce rub that rises In a fringe of trees from the lake shore, each with a 22 calibre rifle, firing promiiscuously at tress and such other objects s the range afforded. The heavy pines shut out a clear view of the lake. It was nearly dark, about 7.30, when the rifles cracked in rapid succession, followed instantly by a cry of alarm from the Loomis boy's companion, Frederick Johnson, as Philip toppled over in the bhoat with the fatal wound. The cries attracted the attemtion of Mr. Loomis, who was camping nearby, and when the boys with the rifle heard the father of the victim Of their care- lesness rushing to the scene of the ac- cident, they lea to the ground, but did neot try to pe. Dr. George Barmes of Dayville and Dr. George Burroughs of -Danielson were calied, but could not help the un- copscious boy, who was placed in W. 1. Bullard’s automobfle and hurried to Putham. He died as he was being taken in the hospital elevator to the oporating_room. Scon after the accident Bridges was taken into custedy by Deputy Sheriff Michnel Grimshaw and Constable Eu- gene Gibney and brought to Daniel- #on, where he 1s held at the police sta- tion. Waterhouse was secured at his home about 11 o'clock and also locked up here. The Brid boy is a son of James Bridges of cranton, Pa., and has been employed at the Thatcher farm “only a short time. He lived in Willimantic up to about three vears ago. He tells a straightforward story bout the affair, saying that he shot last, but the rifles cracked almost to- #ether, and he cannot tell whether he or Waterhouse is responsible for the death of the Loomis boy. He says that he bought the rifle recently from Mr. Thatcher, and that the only other time that he and the Waterhouse boy have been out practicing together was on the Fourth at Attawaugan. He claims that the first knowledge he had of the presence of the boys in the boat was when he heard the cry of distress fromr Philip's companion. The wounded boy never uttered a sound after he was hit. Bridges did not seem at all broken up over the sad affair - Thursday night. The Looml family ‘vent inte camp at the lake a fow days ago, @k is their summer cus- tom. Mrs. Loomis is a daugiter cf Sheriff Preston B. Sibley of Windham county, and Mr, Loomis is the assist- ant principal at_the State Normal school at New Britain. All are pros- trated with grief. The Johnson boy, who was with Philip when he was shot, 1s a school friend, son of Dr. A. B. Johnson of Maple' Hill, New Britain. He was spending a part of his vacation as the Lwomis family's guest. The actident has cast a gloom over the entire cot- tage colony at the lake. While the Bridges boy claims that hé neveér did any shooting along the north shore, ‘it is- understood that he was recently. ordered away from that section by one of the’ cottagers for do- ing reckless shooting: He and Waterhouse will be given a hearing this (l«:rldly) morning.
