CRANSTON’S money in books than almost Pole. Howard M. Tefft, engineer and stereotyper in the plant of the West- erly Sun, was seriously injured while operating the trimming machine Tues- day. He wore a heavy pair of gloves, necessary by reason—-of the heated newly made plates, and in some way the glove of the right hand was elnxht by the tailcutter, and with it Mr. Tefft's hand. The glove and hand be- came so meshed in the cutter that it ceased to revolve. Florence Thackeray, cierk in the business office, happened into the room just as the accident occurred and Mr. Tefft shout- ed to her to turn off the power. The young lady immediately threw the electric switch. Dr. John L, May was summoned and rendered first aid, dressed the wound- ed hand, and then Mr. Tefft was sent to the Rhode Island Hospital in Provi- dence. The forefinger and middle fin- ger of the right hand were crushed and the ‘njury spread up to the middle of the hand. It is believed that the two fingers and perhaps a asection of the hand will have to be amputated. This tailcutting knife is circular, cog-like in appearance, each prong having a keen edge. In consequence the wounds were not ciean cut, but mangled and jagged, and therefore caused great pain and suffering and added to the difficulty of surgical op- eration.

John Hackett, engineer of the Mer- chants’ Limited, wa: ruck on the arm by something projecting from a freight train on_a siding at Wood River Junction -Monday night, and several small bones in the elbow were splintered, but he brought his train to Providence himself and was ready to take it on to Boston, only A. R. Whaley, vice president of the New Haven road, wouldn’t hear of such a thing. When the Merchants’ Limited reach- ed the Union station, Mr. Hackett was relieved by Hugh Keenan, emergency engineer. ~He was given the easiest chair in the train master’s office, and e doctor dressed the injured arm, which was “stiff as a board.” Then Mr. Hackett held an impromptu, left- handed reception to the men on the road until he “dead-headed” back to his home in New Haven on the “Mid- night.” Most of the passengers back in the Pullmans didn’t know anything about the accident except that the train was about eighteen minutes late in get- ting to Providence. That was because Mr. Hackett §topped long enough at the Wood River tower to let New Lon- don know that he'd had “a bit of a knock.” Although there were probably many doctors on the train, he asked for no attention then. Mr. Hackett has been running the New Haven'’s fastest trains for thirty- seven years. He has been running the Merchants Limited, the fastest thing on the line, ever since there was a Merchants Limited, more than ten years. And he seemed to regard the accident simply as something a little bit annoying because it interfered with the schedule. Local Lacol Thus far this year the fire depart- ment has responded to 31 calls.

STONINGTON Bullding of Sidewalks Going On—Res- idents of Mystic Section Ask for a New Walk nnd (Additional Street Lights. Since the town has commenced the building of sidewalks in the different villages, by agreement with the abut- ting property owners that there will be a fifty-fifty division of the expense, there has been encouragement to con- tinue along that line, provided it can be done without increase in taxation, or increasing the town debt. There- fore when e modern sidewalks are constructed there is a paring of' ex- pense elsewhere. At the meeting of the selectmen, who now act as high- way commissioners, there appe: delegation from the village of Mystic, asking for a sidewalk from Denison street to Industrial place, and the se- lectmen promised an early consider- ation. This was correct action and it may result in the bullding of quite a granolithic - sidewalk where it is very much needed. But the Mystic delegation also ask- ed for more street lights so that pe- defltrhxu might see the new sidewalk. the selectmen took a new de- pmgfo‘fi and decur;d that the ley company, and not the town, should furnish the street lights. n-km Spray. of the partially-burned b hfi shed on the old steamboat whar( s now well under way, and soon only the wharf proper will re- Miss Mary StéWart ana John, Stew. art, of Boston, are guests of Mr. Mrs, T.
