HEAD CUT OFF BY TROLLEY GAR. Man Supposed to B William Harvey of New London Run Over on East Lyme Road. A man supposed to be William Har- vey, formerly a banjo player in New London saloons, was instantly killed Friday evening by a trolley car of the New London and East Lyme street railway. The man was lying across the tracks near the Jordan cemetery in Waterford when the car passed over his neck, severing the head. One peculiar feature of the accident was that when the head was pocked up a cigar, unaisturbed by the shock, was still held firmly in the man’s teeth. In the absence of Dr. Miner, who is medical examiner for the town, Dr. Dart was called into the case. He communicated with Captain Dennis Twomey at police headquarters here in an effort to locate Coroner Franklin H. Brown, but the coroner wag spend- ing the night at his summer home at Gales Ferry and could not be reached by telephone, BRANDEGEE'S SUCCESSOR.

The monthly meeting of the board of water commissioners was held on Friday evening at the water depart- ment office In the town hall, with a full attendance of the board and Pres- Ident Patrick F. Bray 2nd presiding. The usual routine business of ap- proving bills was disposed of and in the special business of the meeting, the board authorized Superintendent John J. Corkery to dispose of the pumping station equipment which was used at Trading cove brook to help the city over the water famine time of last summer when Fairview reser- voir went dry. With the two rese voirs, Fairview and Stony Brook, sup- plying abundant water\and putting the city in the best condition as regards its water supply it has ever been in, it was considered advisable to sell the pumping station outfit. The board also awarded the con- tract to A. Torrance for building a meter house on the Stony Brook reser- Yoir pipe line. This will be located on the pipe line somewhere near Maple- wood_cemetery.. It was decided to put in two mew hydrants on Broadway, both steamer hydrants. One is to be located at the Otis siréet end of the Little Plains and the other at Perkins avenue. Chairman Thomas H. Beckley for the police commissioners presented the members of the water board fire line badges to be worn in case of fires and which will give the badge wearers admission within the fire lines main- tained by the police. A vote of thanks for the badgzes was passed to the po- lice commissioners.

Coroner Franklin H. Brown has been avle to trace to some extent the re- cent movements of Antonio Larese be- fore his dead body was found floating in the Shetucket river late Wednesday afterncon, but there is some time since Monday that has not been accounted for and no explanation has yet.been arrived at as to where he may have spent about $69 out of the $75 which he drew from his employer on Krlday of last week. The dead man also had two dress suit cases which he took away and it is not known what became of these, Larese is known to have worked for his employer on Sunday, and on Mon- day he did not work. That night he was around his boarding place on Washington street, making more or less of a disturbance in an intoxicated condition and he was seen afier mi night on Monday on, Washington street by Policeman Driscoll. That is the last that the coroner has been able to learn of him. Policeman Ralph Divito has been assisting him in his inquirie As the man's watch had stopped at 4.25 o'clock it was thought that this might have indicated that he was struck by a train in the morning hours about that time, but upon_inquiry at the railroad station of the New Haven road it has been learned that there was no early morning freight at about that time on the road. The body was sent from here on Friday morning by Undertakers Cum- mings & Ring for burial in Meriden. According 10 the undertakers, rigor mortis had not set in when they re- celved the body, which would indicate that his injuries had been received on the afterncon of the day on which it was found. Coroner Brown said on Friday that the extent of the injuries seemed to indicate railroad injuries rather than any other type of accident. Besides the badly crushed head the man’s left shoulder blade was broken SUNDAY SCHOOL SOCIAL. Large Attendance of Central Baptist Members at Rally Event. An enjoyable social for the Sunday | school of the Central Baptist church was held in Bushnell chapel Friday | evening, with a large number in at- | tendance. Supt. Shepard B. Palmer presided during the more formal part of the evening's programme. Herbert Alden Clark of Boston entertained with | humorous scngs and impersonations, and a pleasing duet was well rendered | by Mrs. Grace Aldrich Crowell and Mrs. A. T .Sullivan. Selections were furnished by the Young Ladies' Man- dolin club, and Gale Noyes pleased | with a piano solo. A well rendered cornet solo by Reginald Ashbey was followed by two pleasing recitations by Mrs. Joel B. Slocum. The pastor, | Rev. Dr. Joel B. Slocum, gave a few remarks and urged attendance at the Rally' day services to be held Sunday. | A social time followed and refresh- ments were served by a_committee of ladies of which Mrs. A. Thatcher Otis was chairman. | TRAIN CHANGES, | New Haven Road’s New Timetables in | Effect Sunday.

Another curious re three dol- laf currency bill of Continental Cur- rency isued fall & Saiters in Phil- adelphia in 1776. On one xide we read This bill entitles the bearer to re- ceive Three Spainsi Mill Dollars or their value thereof in gold or silver according to the refolution of Congress f\ paffed at Philadelphia Nov. 2nd 1776 A picture of a coin is also stamped on this side which represents 2 large birds or eagles in deadly contlict. Around the edge of coin _is this inserip- I tion: “Exitus in dubito e In size this bill is 2 and 2 1-2 inche \round the outside edges is printed e United Colonies Continental Curren- cy.” On the opposite side the bill appears a rattlesnake coiled as if about to spring on its prey. The SM appearing in_the will undoubtedly re- fers to the Spanish Mill dollar which this bill represents In following the yellowed pages of the will through we read beiween the fading lines the story of the love and is country but for home: and all the test of true manhood s in answering the ntry's tury since this Isaac Bennett was laid to rest in the South Cemetery: but the record of his upright Godly life reflects his noble character and still lives for us to-day SUSAN J HOWE MALT BREAKFAST Mrs. Mary C.
