Important actiou was taken at a special tow 11 meeting at the Town Hall on Saturday, in the adoption of revolu- tions appointinga committee with pow- er to cemplete arrangements with the 'Railroad commissioners and officials of the New York, New Haven and Hart- fordRailroad for the elimination of the _ grade crossings near the: residences of John Gregory and W. P. Bland, and the appropriation of a sum not to ex- ceed $2,500, as the town’s share of the expense of a. new layout in "accordance with a map made from a survey by Engineer ’Wm. B. Rider of_N01-walk. Over 125 voters were present and all of the resolutions were passed unani- mously,showing well the opinion of the tax payers regarding public improve- ment. The committee appointed were, Henry E.Chichester, George F. Brown and H. B. Osborn. The new layout calls for a straight ro.i.d from a point near Charles E. Gregory‘s back of the residence of Edward Wisely. John Gregory and W. P. Bland to the junc- tion of the old road to Hurlbutt and Cannons, and at a point half way be- tween the residence of Gregory and Bland a new road will be run over the track crossing the river by an .iron bridge 128 feet south. of - the present bridge and joining the present high- way near Edwin Gilbert’s residence. The estimated 'cost is about $8000, of which the railroad will bear three quarters of the expense. It was stated at the meeting that some of _. the prop- erty owners affected by the change Will give the land necessary for the new survey and in any case the land damage will be small. Wilton can well lay claim to being a progressive town by its yearly income ofgood roads, and by the effort to abolish the most dan~ gerous grade crossing 011 the line of the Danbury Division. .

He was one of a driving crew that broke abig jam above Sturgeon Falls. He attempt- ed to cross the. river on a log, and to the horror of the spectators, was'car- ried over the falls. The falls are 40 feet high. and consist of two pitches and the rapids. Of course the man was given up for dead. and the driving crew thought it useless to search the river for his body, as the logs were piling over the falls at a rapid rate. The morning. however, the Indian walked into camp for breakfast. He had been swept down the river and up against the bank, where he managed to crawl out. Finding only a few scratches and bruises, but being. as he remarked, "rather tired,” he lay down and slep'r until daylight. and was none the worse for his adventure. 2 English Earn Little. Statistics just completed by the in- come tax commission of Great Britain show that out of a total adult popula- tion of 12,500,000 more than 10,000,000 earn less than $860 a year. The income tax is collected at. the rate of 16 cents on each $5 above $800. and the total tax, which last year amounted to more than. $100,000,000, was contributed by not more Than 2.000.000 people. next INFLUENZA FROM OZONE. Pure Air from Lake Michigan Gave an Investigator an Extreme- ly Hard Cold. IOn_ one becasicn the present writei walked to the edge of Lake Michigan when a. strong wind was blowing right from the lake. The bodily condition was as near perfect- as could he, says Popular Science, and yet in less than _five‘minutcs there was every evidence of having caught an extremely hard cold. The severe influenza continued until, on walking away, in less than 500 feet, it disappeared as if by magic. 11: is very certain that the tempera- ture had nothing to do with this, nor the wind, but the influenza was direct- ly due to the abundant ozone in the air. hundreds of residents who had lived upon the immediate edge of the lake had been obliged to move back three or four miles in. order to relieve them- selves from such experiences. Physi- cians readily admit that it is not al- ways possible to say why one “catches" cold; it certainly cannot al- ways be‘because of undue exposure or change in temperature, but prob- ablyr also to changes in the electric condition of the air. Facts of this kind should lead to the extremest cau- tion in studying any supposed rela— tion between. the weather and health. NOBODY CLAIMED THE WATCH. That Is Why the Relator of Thin Story Kept a Remarkable 'l‘lme- piece. “Great Scott! but that’s a fine watch,” came from a. chorus. “Where’d you ever get it?” “Stole it,” answered its possessor, calmly, relates the Philadelphia In- quirer. “You don’t believe me, do you?” he went on. “Well, I’ll. tell you how it happened. I was on a. l western district which enjoyed the reputation of being the toughest one covéred‘by the house. I had some time to kill and so went into one of the gambling joints. It isn’t neces- sary to' go into details as to What happened. As luck would have it there Were a. half dozen others in the place besides myself who might be considered as possible victims. When the time came the lights were put out suddenly and then we had ‘rough house’ for about ten 'minutes. In the middle of it I felt somebody grab my ‘watch and reached out after him. I caught some one and felt that he was just putting a watch in his trousers pocket. I gaxe his wrist a. hard wrench and got the timepiece. Then I broke away. When I got to the light I found the watch was this one. And 'as I never heard from the owner I have it to compensate for the loss of ‘:mine.” After which the. waiter hurried over in. response to six different signals. (at :A'. Z E :T T E .
