The large summer residence of the late
Dr. Alonzo Clarke, of Darien, was totally
destroyed by fire Saturday night between
seven and eight o’clock. A large quart-
tity of furniture was in the house, which
was also burned. How the fire originat-
ed is a mystery,as the house was only oc-
cupied in the summer months. and on
Saturday no one was in it, The loss is
estimated at nearly $4,000, and is said to
be covered by insurance. It is supposed
that the fire was the work of an incen-
iary, as several incendiary fires have
occurred in that neighborhood lately. It
was only last summer that the barn on
the samo‘estatu was destroyed ~by an in-
cendiary. «

his absence llurtz ransacked everything

The Ansonia correspondent of tho Wa-

the trusseh that support the roof of the
sheds in which the electric cars are
housed. it was necessary to use a derrick
one guy rape of which rested upon the
wire through which power is trausmib
ted. Wednesday morning the” workmen
were treated to a series of shocks. First
one went upaiudder and took hold of
an iron rod and commenced to yell; an-
other one went to pick up a hammer and
dropped it with an exclamation more
forcrble than polite. Some Chisels, etc.,
were found to be highly charged with
the electric fluid, and not until the guy
rope was removed and the derrick taken
down could work be resumed. The
rapes, timbers, etc., being very damp,
made a perfect conductor for the current
of electricity, which. but for the damp.
nose, would not have been noticed."

Another Attempt at Safe Blowing in the
Borough. .
Burglars forced an entrance into Terry
dz Company‘s beef house, in the borough,
Saturday night, and attempted to blow
open the safe in the office. They drilled
one hole in the top of it, but broke their
drill before it went through the sale.
They then started a hole in t 9 door just
above the combination, bu broke the
drill in this one also. They evidently
were frightened away, for they left their
tools behind them, which consisted of
two carpenter's braces, a two inch chisel,
two broken drills, a brass spiral spring,
a file, and a jimmy with the name W.
E. Hoyt stamped on it.
Mr. Crissy‘s carpenter shop on Water
street was also found opened the same
night, and Mr. Crissy recognized one of
braces and file as belonging to him.
The other tools have not been recognized.
The Beef Company have been in the
habit of keeping a large dog, but on Sat-
urday they gave it away, so the burglars
had a clear field to work in. The sale
was under a desk where it was very un-
handy to get at but they tors thedesk all
to pieces so as to make room. If they
had succeeded in blowing open the safe
they would have had their labor for their

avoid the train had it proceeded on its
way. The train struck the dog and
threw it a few feet ahead. lieforc the
dog could get up and make 011 the cow-
, few fer-t more in advance. The dog was
ipropelled in this manner for about 150
l feet, when the cow~catciier threw it clear
of the track. The dog turned several
j somersaults from the force of the last
, blow. but finally arose and limped up
Crescent avenue at the same gait he had
assumed previous to the adventure. The
dog appeared to be uninjured, although
if it had been a valuable dog it probably
would have been killed."

They Thought They Were Married.

Two years ago a young man and wom-
an, both intoxicated, called upon a Nor-
wich justice of the peace to be married.
The justice went through some machina-
tions and told them to come again when
they were sober. But they wont away
thinking themselves man and wife.
Their life since then has been about as
crooked as their marriage was. Wed
nesday afternoon the man called at the
town clerk’s office to see if he really was
married. He nearly went wild with joy
when he learned that be had been labor

A naturism AMAZON.

Sim Defies the Law and Thraslioa the

Constable.

A New Haven dispatch of Saturday
says: “Mrs. James Moohau, of Hamden,
is an Amazon, who to-day thrashed a
deputy sheriff and two assistants in fine
style. The deputy had a writ of attach-
ment to take a wagon which Mrs. Moo-
han‘s husband owed $30 on. The wom-
an, who weighs upward of two hundred
pounds, in the absence of her husband,
told them to go to sheol with their writ.
Then with a heavy club she struck the
oilicer over the, head. laying him low-
llis assistant, Catlin, also caught it bad'
ly. Then a farmer came along with a
load of hay. lie was commanded by
the deputy to assist. and he reluctantly
went in and was badly hurt, Then the
discoml‘ited three went in together and
Mrs. Moohau dropped the club and used
her fists and teeth. The three finally got
the wagon out of the yard, but the writ
was sputtered wrth blood. A strong
body of police is being organized to ur-
rest Mrs. Moohan."
