Farrell - Slipped While Quieting a Patient. ——t y Two accidents at the Norwich state hospital on Friday morning served to break the monotony of routine at that institution and gave the attending Physicians an opportunity to exercise their skill in minor surgery. Martin Burns, a resident of Yantic, was engaged in painting on the south ward D and was standing on a stag- ing about six feet above the ground. He went to step from this onto anoth- er staging, nearby, and misjudzed the distance and fell to the ground. He suffered considerable pain in his foot, and an examination showed a fracture of the os calcis, the bone of the heel The fracture was adjusted by the hos- pital physicians and the injured man was made as comfortable as possible. ©On Friday morning John A. Farreil, the well known baseball manager, en- countered a patient in a restive mood while engaged in his duties as attend- ant. While endeavoring to quiet the patient Mr. Farrell slipped and fell, with the resuit that he suffered a frac- ture of the radius, one of the two Dbones of the forearm, at the wrist. The doctors set the break, which is a com- mon one, and only slight in Mr. Far- rell's case, Both men will be laid up by the breaks for a time, though Mr. Farrell will be able to be about. LOCATION OF INTAKE AT FAIRVIEW CONSIDERED. Water Board Discusses the Changing of It to a Point Up the Pond— Reservoir Gaining. The pipe which brings the water from Meadow brook to Fairview emp- ties near the gatehouse at Fairview reservoir so that the water oftimes comes into the mains before it has much time for sedimentation to take At the monthly meeting of the water board Friday afternoon the changing of this intake pipe was dis- cussed, the idea being advanced that it should” be continued to a point per- haps a thousand feet up the point so that the water would 'be ponded a while before being drawn out. This could be done by joining onto the pres- ent end of the pire or by disconnecting near the toolhcuse at the reservoir, | laying the pipe underground under the roadway on the west bank to the de- sired point. Little was done at the board meet- ing outside of routine business, the session being about a half hour in length. ‘When measured on Friday Superin- tendent Corkery found that Fairview was 182 inches down or a gain of three inches since Thursday. This gain will_continue for a day or two it is thought, as a seven-inch stream continues to come from Meadow brook. On Aug. 1st the cleaning of the Meadow brook trenches was start- ed, so that when the storm started the stepipe there was closed and on Thursday the water was turned into Fairview, which will be ready to take all it can receive for the rest of the season. On Friday about 60 feet of pipe was Taid in West Main street and today the trenches will be closed, to remain closed until after the fair, to prevent any accldents.

Leavitt Completed Superinten- dency Sept. 1st, Being Succeeded by Dwight N. Lane. On Thursday B. F. Leavitt severed his connection at_the plant of the B-L company, where he has been superin- tendent. ' His succes Sept. 1st, is Dwight N. Lane of Bristol, Conn., who has been foreman at the B-L factory..

Connecticut Team Lacked Two Points of Finishing Fourth in the Second Class. On Friday Mojor John A. Hagberg returned from a 12-days’ vacation which was spent at the national rifle contest at Camp Perry, O., where he participated in the shoot as a member lof the Connecticut team. Lacking practice together, this team gave the other state teams a big surprise in the rapid fire at the-200 vard range, and they looked like sure winners of a good sized sum of money, but thereafter they took a slump and on the 600 and 1000 ranges fell down badly. This droppéd_them back to 19th place, but after the skirmish run they advanced {to 17th place, where they finished. At that they lacked but two points of get- ting fourth place and money in the second class, Florida beating them out by that margin, though the Florida team was rated in the third class, They thereby won $200 and bronze medals, but had they finished three points less and dropped back into*first money in their own class they would have taken a larger prize. The Florida team was next to the Connecticut team and Captain Morgan or Poquonoc was presented an alliga- tor two feet long which he brought home. The Connecticut team made a better showing by 100 points this year than they did last, and while there were no records broken at the range, it was considered an excellent year. Possi bility of the shoot being held in Wis- consin next year is being rumored. The team was in the contest for only two days, but much time was spent in practice at the ranges.
