DIMINUTIVE PATIENT AT BACKUS HOSPITAL. A Pigeon Walked in the Front Door the Other Day to Get His Wing Fixed Up. There is a new ward t the Backus hospital, an entirely private one, and! in it is one of the most interesting cases the staff has had under observa- tion this winter. Late Friday after- noon, about 5, during a lull in the day's storm, the attendant at the main entrance looked down the front steps, and up them, in a manner that was auite determined and decisive, came hopping—a white pigeon. Straight up the steps and to the door walked the bird, and then when the maid opened the ‘door, quite calmly it hopped into the vestibule. The attendant called for a nurse and, when she came, she found that the visitor was actually there as a prospective patient. She picked up the bird, found blood on its wing and a wound that looked as if some boy's in might have hit the pigeon. The pigeon seemed to be suffering and the formalities of admission were dis- pensed with. The bird was taken right away to the accident room, the wound cleansed and dressed and now Mr. Pigeon is making a splendid recovery in a2 box that is all his own—the new- est ward at the hospital And just as soon as wing Is sound once more, the will again be given his liberty, decides he wants to go. igeon if he XENS NETTED $55.

May Lose One Eye by Injury When Percussion Caps Went Off Sunday Morn- ing—West Side Residents Awakened by the Explosion at 7:30 O’Clock—Jacob Sadinski Also Hurt. West Side people who live anywhere in the neighborhood of 14 Aqueduct street were roused out of their slum- bers Sunday morning—except perhaps the rare few who are up at 7.30 on the day of rest—by an explosion or sev- eral of them all at once. The nolse was quite contrary to the customary quiet of the neighborhood and it startled people as far away as Ann street. Chief Stanton, whose home on Fairmount street is ciose by the place where the trouble broke out, was up, being a habitual early riser, scented a fire or somebody shot, and so he pulled on his rubber boots and betook himself quickly to the seat of disturbance. So did about a hundred more people in the next few minutes. The chief got there just in time to see David Sadin- eki carrying off his unconscious son in his arms to the office of Dr. Harry E. Higgins. The noise brought Policeman Brock and the result of Investigation was that it was learned that George Attle- man of Providence, R. I, who peddles dishes from a wagon, had been the cause of the trouble, although it was not altogether his fault. He had spent the night at the Sadinski home on Aqueduct street and one of the women who lived next door got interested in his wares. She had no money and €0 she offered to trade some copper wire for dishes. To get the insulation off, Attleman bullt a little fire in the mid- dle of the street and put the wire in it. The two Sadinski boys were right on hand to see the fun. Then the thing blew up. It was found later when the wire was examined that it was evi- dently used for blasting and that it ‘was connected with a number of per- cussion caps such as are used to ex- plode dynamite, which must have burst in the flames. Both of the boys were knocked down unconscious, and Dr. Higgins found that George, the older one, about 13, had been struck In the eye by a plece of the flying metal. He bled freely and it looked Sunday as if the boy might lose an eye. Jakie, his 9 year old brother, got cuts and bruises on his face and arms and foot and leg. M. U. ODD FELLOWS PARADED AFTER RAIN STOPPED Grand and State Officers Were Here for Class Initiation on Saturday. 0ad Fellows to the number of 250 and over, including grand and state officers and visiting brothers from surrounding towns came to Norwich on Saturday evening to take part in the class initiation held by Hugh Osgzood lodge, No. 6920, in Olympic hall.

The line of march was as follows: Shetucket to Main street, as far as Burnham square, march at Burnham Main, Franklin square, up Franklin street to Bath, up Bath street to Broadway, down _ Broadway and through Main to Washington square, down Water street to the hall. The line of march was kept clear by the police. The exercises in the hall were pre- sided over by N. G. Arthur Pickering, who in a few well chosen remarks welcomed the visiting brothers.
