R ————— AUTOMOBILE HELD ON BRINK OF EMBANKMENT. Held Up Trolley Car Until Pulled Out of the Way—Montville Car Held Up by Machine Burning Out. Two accidents happening at the same time Sunday night on different sections of the troliey road blockad the main line for 15 to 20 minutes and threw the schedule a little out of joint for the rest of ‘the evening, making the cars from New London late. On the trip due hers at 8.45 the car from Willimantic was held up near Baldwin's store along the Taftville road by an automobile that backed off a bank. While trying to turn the ma- chine around the chauffeur found the hind wheels slipping-off the bank by the sida of the trolley track, but he got the brakes on in time to check the car from going all the way down. ‘The car blocked the track and was help- less to get out of its fix unless helped. Chains were secured from Baldwin's stora by which the trolley car pulled the automobile back into the road again and cleared the track. At the same time the machine burned out on an extra upbound car at the Montville switch. This usually causes only temporary delay, but on this car for some reason thé controller box couldn’t be opened untll the crew had struggled for 20 minutes with it. The disabled machine was then cut out, allowing the car to proceed on its trip.

Sherman, |the oldest and best-known residents jof the East Side, Providence, who spent over sixty vears as a died at his late hoie, 60 Pitman street, Providence, Thursday, at the ase of |82 vears. ' Captain Sherman retired from the sea nine years ago and en- joyed good health up to last spring, when his advanced age and troubles |incident thereto brought on ‘illness to which he slowly succumbed. _Mr. Sherman was a native of South Kingstown, where he was born in 1528. ‘When but 12 vears of age he went to sea on a_sailing el which plied between Boston, Halifax and Pictou, N. 8. He also served abroad trading vessels along the southern Atlantic coast, He became a captain while a young man and was an experienced navigator of the old school.

Was Able to Be About His Home at The many - friends of Congressman Edwin W. Higgins will be gratified to learn that he is showing steady im- provement and that he was able to be ap and about bis summer home at Mas- sapeas on Sunday. He is gaining strength and it is hoped that he will soon be able to be out of doors, but it will all depend upon the progress thut he ig able to make. As’ ranking member of the Wiley committee at Washington which sat through August during the yery hot weather, it was incymbent upon him to attend closely to the committee's work, and he gave very close atten- tion to the evidence taken. His appe- tite fell off. and physical impairment was noticeable as soon as the commit- tee adjourned until fall, the tension over the duties having been a severe drag upon the congressman’s nerves. BRICK PAVEMENT LAID EXCEPT IN CARTRACK Some Efiorts Towards Having Grade Changed, but It is Claimed to Be Less Than Formerly. On_ Saturday the work of placing the vitrified brick in the opened south side of Maln street was completed and today it is to be laid between the rails of the south trolley track and in the space between the two_tracks. There developed on Saturday some opposition to the grade there because it seemed somewhat steep and liable to throw a horse or auto into the gut- ter during a slippery spell. There was. talk by A, N. Carpenter of an injunc- tion, but it did not materialize and it was stated by Chairman Henry Ge- brath of the public works commitiee that the grade is a better one than the former one when the block paving was there, He says that the trouble | i with the grade which was given Mr. Shannon when he put in the curbing about his building and the present one for the brick is the best than can be done. It will not be possible to make a change now and the placing of the cement between the brick will be started today, it is expected. Mr. Ge- brath says that the grade at the foot of Cliff street is much worse and no trouble has resulted. LEDYARD REPUBLICAN Caucus Meld on Saturday When Town Ticket Was Named.

Her first position was in the office of the big thread mills in this remote village In the town of Gris- wold, reached by siuge from Jewett City or Voluntown. In the monotony of the village boarding house in a short time the homesick girl met an- other exile, Hiram H. Farnham, a master painter from Hartford, who had come down from thé capital with his gang of workmen to paini the em- ployes' houses for the mill owner: Propinquity did the rest. g Farnham had been regarded by his Hartford friends as a confirmed bach- elor, but it was not long bafore the plump, black eyed girl was wearing a diamond ring as hig as a button as she made pothooks and hangers in her stenographic work in the mill office, and before the-last swab of the brush had been given the mill houses and Boss Farnham was ready to return to Hartford, the Norwich girl had pre- sented her resignation to the mill offi- cials, who greatly regretted her de- cision until later < developments ex- plainad its cause. ¢ A week ago Saturday, accompanied by her mother, Miss Willard went to Hartford, met the happy bridegroom, whose pastor was ready {o tie the knot, and at the Methodist parsonage there was a quiet ceremony which was re- vealed when the marriage notice was published.
