NEW LONDON New City ™Mall Should 3e Ready For Occupancy in Work, September—Other The hoisting and placing tion of the circular sections of the stone columns which will ornament the front, of the New London city hall attracts a large crowd of interested spectators daily. The sections weigh in the vicinity a ton each and are ck _on top of the building. Contractor Joseph A. Dolan has experienced another of the un- in posi- fortunate circumstances that have| contributed greatly to delaying the g structure. | Three of the six ton cornice stones were broken as they were being p | ed on trucks in the temporary work- | | yard on Harlem reet and this held up work on the r r of the building. New stones to take their place had to be ordered. Work is being rush- ed as rapidly as possible and barring accident the building should be com- pleted ready for occupancy in Sep- | tember. Two Appartment House. Henry Hshenfelder who sold his house on Federal street recently, has begun the erection of a two-apartment | house on Blackhall street, near Tru- | man.

Remarkable Operation on a Burned Girl In Baltimore Hospital. Baltimore, May —After many wegks of treatment, the rebuilding of a little girl’s chin and the restoration of her mouth, after they had been terrib- ly distorted by burns, have been com- pleted at a hospital here. The child was brought from another city. Her clothing had taken fire while she was playing about a gas stove, and the flesh on her face was seared to such an extent that when the wound was healed only a small hole was left where the mouth had been; the little finger could be inserted, but only with difficulty. Nothing was left of the chin but the bone and a covering of scarred flesh. A large flap of flesh was cut from the child's abdomen, one side being left attached to the body. The other side was grafted on one of her arms. After weeks the flap was cut from the abdo- men and joined to the lips and chin. For weeks blood flowed from the arm and lips. Finally the flap was cut from the arm The new flesh was now attached to the chin. A mouth was cut and the chin was rounded out. When the child was discharged from the hospital she could eat, talk and move her jaws as well as any of her companions. Only upon close examination could the new chin be discovered.
