DANIELSON ,.Dr. O. C. Sharpe was hurried to the Day Kimball hospital at Putnam Sunday after he had been injured when struck by a heavy limb that fell upon him from an elm tree while he was calling at the hems of Mrs. Frank Sweet, diagonally across North "Main street from his own home. . When taken to the hospital for ob- servation to determine the mature of his ihduries Dr. Sharpe was found to have a fractured left thigh. Thme limb that fell up Dr. Sharpe had been partly broken off in a windstorm and was being cut off by Floyd Sweet, son of Mrs. Frank Sweet, when Dr. Sharpe ran to escape being struck as he heard the warning crack indicating what was com- ing. He was caught and felled however. Dr. 8 B. Overlock of Pomfret made an examination of Dr. Sharpe, who is one of the best known dentists in this section of the state, and then ordered his re-- moval 1o the hospital A woman passenger in the car of Sam- usl Mechanic, of Philadelphia, received a bump that raised a swelling on the side of her head, in one of the minor acci- dents of Surday in this territory. The affair happened in North Main street, mear Morin avenue, and was brought sbout by a horse becoming frightened by an approaching trolley car, south-bound. As the horse, driven by Arthur Breault, 44 Elm street, halted and began to prance as the trolley came to- ward him, a Ford car bearing a South Carelina registration was halted by its drtver 50 as not to crash into the rear of the ice cream wagon to which the horse was_attached and which the Ford was tollowing. Close behind the Ford was the big touring car driven by Mechanic and o' aveld hitting the Ford he swung his car ever to the left and by so doing head- od the machine into a big shade tree, which withstood the impact much better rhan the car, which is in ieed of expensive repairs. The crash of the car against the tree threw the occupants of ths machine about. but the one bump mentioned was the enly noticeable infury anyone re- cefved. Chief John Mckarland investigat- ed the accident : Grand officers of the Foresters of America came here Sinday to assist members of Court Oak Grove, F. of A. in paying the annual tribute in memory of the departed members of the local court. Eacorted by St. James band the Forest- ers marched from their hall in the Hyde bleck to St. James' cemetery, where the memorial ceremonies were conducted by Grand Secretary Thomas O'Loughlin of ‘Waterbury, he also delivering the memor- fal address. Others who spoke at the services were Past Grand Chlef Ranger Charles W. Bayley, Grand Lecturer Wil- liam Denleavey and District Deputy Emil Echneider, all of Waterbury. The graves ot elght departed members were decorat- od, six in St. James' cemetery, two in Hply Coross cemetery. _ Following the services the members of the order returned to their hall, where refreshments were served and several ad- dreases pertaining to the memorial ob servance and Jn the interest of the good of the order were made. Stade pollce from the local barracks valded the place of John Lowney, at Pomfret, and brought away 30 gallons of clder. When presented in court Sat- urday to face charges involving viola- tlons of the liquor law, Lowney pleaded met guilty and the case was continued to Tiine 20. Attention of the state police was direct- ®d'to Lowney’s place by complaints that He bas been engaged in serving a source of intoxicants for students at the selutt Pemfret school. Lowney denles that he furnished the wherewithal for the stud- sits to sprinkle their commencement peri- o8 ‘with something stranger than water, Bat' the police say they have four deposi- tens from students in,which the allega- ten is made that they have obtalned in- ‘axicants from Lowney. Theodort Zahftra has come to Daniel- wem to make his home. He is of disting- uished ancestry dating back to the halcy- en days ok the czars.

Theodorf is a thor- sughbred Russian wolf hound, the first animal of the breed to be owned in this territory. Joseph Birch procured the an- imal for Michael Longo. The dog’s pedigree shows that he comes of & distinguished family in dogdom, wnd among his forbears were eight cham. blens. Theodorf isn’t much to look at just now. Ha i3 but 13 weeks old, gawky and a bit uncertain in getting about on his long *pindling legs, but he has all the mark- Ings of a splendid animal and is expect- #d to develop into one of the finest speci- mens of his kind. The usual spring distemper that some experience and which leads them to ov- er-enthusiasm in tacking up placards and pesters has again attracted the atten- tlon of Chief John McFarland, and he werved notice on Sunday tHat decorating posts and poles with advertising matter must stop. He calls attention to the fact that this practice is against the law and that 2 penaity of $50 is provided by statute for the misdemeanor.
