Fire was noticed back of a counter, and the home-going young man ran in, and found the floor and some boxes in_ the rear of the ablaze. There was a man in the store at the time, but he could give no in- formation as to where water could be found, so the stranger seized a iarge glass container of orangade and used it tg good effect. Later water was cast on the rest of the blaze, and it was extinguished. The smoke filled the place, and did some damage, After the fire an extinguisher was found in the store. Why it had not been used seems strange, as the door was not locked when the young man first went n. s SHOT GIRL IN SHOULDER. Local Marksman Causes Excitement at Krause Show—Chief Richmond Closes Gallery. __A resident of this city, whose name is unknown, wanted to show some companions ~ at the Krause shows Saturday night how well he could shoot, and not being satisfied with the action of the guns at the booth, went home to get his own. In some way not explained, a_shot from his gun went throush or by the plate at the rear of the gallery, and hit a » | young girl named Sullivan who live in what is known as the “white Tow' on Upper Main street. Dr, Wilsox was called, and found the Shot had gone through the girl's shoulder, but no severe damage was ained by her. The wound was sed, and the girl is resting com- fortably. Unless some complications set in, she is in no danger. The man is responsizble for the shot is not knewn, and probably does not know he hit the girl.

Aquatic Events Saturday Morning— Ball Games During Afternoon, ‘Wililimantic has about resumed normal appearance following Old Home and School Week celebration. Most of the people who were here for the big week have left town, or are doing so today, and the festive air of the last few ‘days is gradually dis- appearing. The week proved a grand success. From the start of the week, last Sun- day, with the religious services of the morning and the mass meeting of the evening, until the last speech had been its made, the trend of all the talks and speeches given during the celebration was toward a better education for citizenship, and the scheme was most eftectually worked out. Many compliments for the week are being paid the chairman of the gen- eral “committee, George F. Taylor, a busy man, who devoted the larger part of his time for the past month in preparations for the event. His associates on the general committee and the subcommittees also worked hard, and both M Dunn and First Selectman Mitchell, with the members of the town and city governments, co- operated with the committee with great ability | The last events of the week's pro- ram were held Saturday.

How has he amassed this fortune?

At sixteen he was tramping the Streets of Cleveland looking for a Job, which he found as bookkeeper on the docks, receiving in all $50 for his first three months’ work—dess than 76c a working day; then he was raised to $25 a month, then 3500 per year. From the time he sold the tur. keys he kept his accounts of money received and expended in what he is Pleased today to refer to as “Ledger A" At eightcen he had saved $800, and with $1.000 borrowed from his father at 10 per cent, (betng hig ex- pectancy in the senior Rockefellers es- tate) he, with a young man named Clark, opened a commission house, which at the end of the first year had done a $500,000 business.

The matter was dis- cussed between the company officials in Boston and they came here ready to put the plan into effect and award the contract. At the last minute an agreement was reached between the officers of the company and Mr. John- son and an agreement made by which the building on Truesdell street is to Dbe transferred to the company July 15th. This will admit of the com. pany getting started by the first of August, although it will not begin to run full at that time.
