BERLIN. Conn, Aug. 22,—Whlle go-
ing down the steep lilll between this
town and Kcnsingtou, yesterday morn-
ing at a high rate of speed, a big auto-
mobile in which were three Hartford
men and a chauffeur was wrecked by
the bursting of a tire. and two of the
occupants. Edward Hale, and N, B.
Bernard. are now in the New Britain
hospital, suffering from serious inju-
ries. William Sullivan was also taken
to the hospital soon after the accident.
but was able to leave during the day.
The chauffeur escaped injury.
it is considered remarkable that
none of the men were killed as the
machine dashed at full speed into a
telegraph pole, wrecking it completely.
It was going down a hill at a good rate
when a forward tire burst. which cana-
ed the machine to swerve toward the
trolley tracks. The angle. at which the
car struck the railway tracks was
sharp and as lie tracks are well
above ground at that place. the auto-
mobile was thrown into the air sev-
eral feet and turned over on its side
after striking the telegraph pole
throwing the occupants in all direci
lions. .
Hale was made unconscious. there
being a ball out on his head, and the
others, with the exception of the
chauffeur. were more or less injured.
it was stated last night that Hale had
concussion of the brain and his con-
ditlon is sanewhat critical.

Delightful Barn Dance
Given dilijl'iltilis farms
Mrs, T. H. Mason. of New York, En-
tertained Employees and Fdondo,
Saturday Night.
GREENS FARMS. August 22.-A
most delightful and enjoyable "barn
dance” was given here Friday night.
by Mrs. T. H. Mason, of Ney York. to
her employees and their numerous
friends. The affair was ‘a huge suc-
cess in every way. and all those prea-
bnt are now eagerly looking forward to
the nest dance that Mrs, Mason. It is
said, will glv before long.
The barn which the festivities
,took place. is an immense atone struc-
ture. with a floor that is ideal for danc-
ing, and on this occasion the interior
bf the building. decorated lavishly as
,lt was with myriads of svespsoentlng
flowers, dazzling Japanese Ihulerul
and great handsome silk flags, looked
like a vast, bewildering fairy garden.
This beautiful effect was vastly
heightened by reason of the stunning
yet entirely appropriate costumes worn.
'by many of the ladies present. The.
whole, indeed, was a perfect picture,
and one that is seldom watched in
more pretentious surroundings. Mrs.
Mason herself Opened the dance by
leading o! with her ooschmsn, lidward
Williams, as partner: and she was
quickly followed by Miss inwis, who
in a daughter by a former marriage;
and by hhr specially invited guests,
Miss Jergeson, of New York. and the
Messrs. Footc. also of New York. The
ciiipioyees and their friends then got
in line, and the grand march proceeded.
This In itself was a feature and a strik-
ing one at that; for many beautiful
and intricate figures were gone
through without a bitch. and the grace-
fiii movements of those participatan
frequently evoked rounds of well-mer-
ited applause. Excitement ran high
when the march broke up and the an-
nouncement was made “to take part:
ncrs for the insects." Everybody
was happy and enjoying himself to the
.full, and many a sigh of regret was ’
heard when the “good night waltz”
was player] at 1:30 a, m.
A fine big spread was enjoyed at
intermission. this being another in-
stance of Mrs. Mason's liberality and
added to this were the many beautifil
souvenirs that she gave to all those
present.
Mrs. Mason, who is well-known for
her splendid charities and kindly na-
ture, is deservedly popular with. every-
body at the “Farms.” and now that she‘
has started the “ball a-rolling" with
ham dances for hes employees and
friends, the belief is prevalent that:
her praisoworthy action will be
promptly followed by other wealthy
cottagers here.
Of the one hundred or more dancers
present were the following: Mrs. T.
H, Mason. Miss Lewis and Messrs.
Foote, Thomas Shaughnessy, Jr., and
wife, Miss Lizzie Shaughnessy Martin
Shaugiinsssy, Mamie Lowery, Harry
Lowery. Sadie Lowery. John Egan,

_....._..—
A RHYME FOR WORD.
A teacher in one of the Brooklyn
schools had been instructing one of her
pupils in what constitutes a rhyme.
"Now," said she, “all those who think
they understand what a rhyme is will
hold up their hands. _
Every little rascal in the room shot;
up his hand, though it is doubtful that:
one of them really comprehended the
subject.
“Very well,’ said the teacher. “Who
can give me s. rhyme for ‘word‘!’
Not a hand went up.
“Why, you all said you understand"
what s rhyme is. Surely you ought to
be able to find one for a simple word
like ‘word.’ " ,
Motionless silence ensued.
The teacher looked significantly
through the window at the branches of
a tree near by. ”What little creature
hops from limb to limb!" she asked by
way of suggestion. __
Instantly a little girl put up her
hand and shook it vigorouly,.trying
to attract the teacher's attention before
anybody else could answer the ques-
on. ‘
“Well, Mary?"
”A flea, ma'am."

GENERALIZED TOO MUCH.
Judge Stoddard, of New Haven, says'
the New York Commercial, occasional-
ly llvcns things up with a bit of a
story. ‘
He told the other day of a young
student at the Yale Law School who.
in a disputed point of law, had held ‘
aut against all the class, and even
gainst the lecturer who had raised the
mint. An appeal was taken to the
icon of the school, and. the student
waved to be in the right. A natural.
'esult was that the youngster become
