LAST NIGHTS SW8...
Mush Damage to Telegraph and 'l'ale-
phuuo Wires Throughout Connecticut.
A severe northeast snow storm raged
all over Connecticut last night, doing
extensive damage, particularly to tele-
graph and telephone wires in the State.
The storm did great damage about
South Norwalk, a large number of wires
in this vicinity being broken and torn
down. Several of the Western Union
Telegraph company's wires on the pole
at the end of the depot platform broke,
and fell on the railroad tracks and cross-
walks early In the evening. Officers
Gladstone and Pennington were kept
busy coiling them up, and getting them
out of the way of the few pedestrians
who were obliged to venture out. One
of the big poles near the railroad cut at
Springwood was blown completely over
into the excavation for the new track.
Many wires were broken all along the
turnpike, and several poles blown over
between Norwalk and Darien. The mid-
night trains were delayed over an hour.
and the brakemen were obliged to get
on at several places between here and
Hartford and remove wires and out p use
in two to allow trains to pass.
Several awnings in South Norwalk
were torn down by the wind, among
them being Brown & Wilcox‘s and A.
Mslmo’a.
The storm set in first at Falls Village,
in the northwestern part of the state, at l
o’clock in the afternoon. The storm mov-
ed gradually to the eastward toward even-
ing, reaching Norwalk shortly after 6
o'clock. The Southern New England
Telephone company suffered consider-
ably in consequence of the storm. The
wires were all blow down in many of the
towns, and at midnight communication
was open only to Waterbury and Men-
den.
Several telephone polcs in Hartford
were blown down, carrying with them a
mass of wires. The wuss belonging to
the Long Distance Telephone company,
near South Norwalk were also blown
down between this point and New York,
and points east were cutoff.
Manager E. B Baker has summoned
his entire force of lineman, and aided by
hisotlisr help. the telephone company
promise to have their service in excellent
shape to furnish election returns tonight.

trouble, and will be in shape for returns

killed in Meriden by an electric wire,

Early' in the week i rederii k Fl't'llilt‘ll-
thal. the popular milkmin, while at his
home in Cranberry Plains, had occasion
to cough. in doing so his upper false teeth
got loose, flew out of his mouth, as told
in Till". SENTINEI. recently, and fell near
where his house dog lay. The animal,
seeing the curious shining object, seized
them and went through the motions of
chewing, and then gulpcd the whole
business down. Meantime Mr. Freudrn~
lhsl missed something and went for the
dog. He stroked and talked kindly to
the canine, used endearing names and
indo-ed did his boat to coax the brute to
reconsider. as it were, his not. With half
closed eyes and a sort of innocent yet do-
Il’llll. smile, Mr, Dog gazed at his must-2r
as much as to say: "Those teeth are
well stowed away; what are you going
to do about it," and Mr. i". has been
“uliuittilng” at umultimcs ever since.
This is bclii'vcd to be the only tooth mil-
ing dog in these parts. The owner of the
teeth will probably be forced to obtain a
new set.
Oranges mi Antidote for Liquor
An exchange says that one of the last
things for a man who dmires to stop
drinking Is the frm use of oranges. This
isatfestod to by a man well known in
Alisonia who, up to a year ago, was nd‘
dlvtud to drink, but who at that time
decided he would quit the habit, If pos‘
slble. The struggle was a hard one and
at times it would seem as thoughhe
would have to yield and commence
drinking again. lie had never heard of
using oranges but when he was feeling
the need of a drink more than usual, one
day, he took an orange and sucked the
juice, and to his surprise found that his
desire for drink had gone. After that,
when the desire for drink assailed him,
he used oranges freely, and day by day
the ,appetlte became less and now for
months he has not had any wish for
liquor. It Is a simple remedy and easy
for any one who desires to try it.--An-
