“Enthusiastic foresters urge their
claims from many viewpoints. The
water supply, the timber supply, the
‘ effect on temperature and on soils, and
last'but not least, heulthfuiness. To
‘ this the latest circular from the Uni-
ted States forestry service Adds: “The
promotion of city watersheds demands
urgent attention. The annual spring
floods, which bring destruction to
‘ thousands of homes in the lower-lying
fertile valleys and are generally fol-
lowed by epidemics of serious diseas-
es, would in a great measure be pre-
' vented were the slopes covered by
forest. Forests regulate the flow of
streams, prevent erosion and turbid-
ity. and make waste areas beautiful
and productive, besides insuring a
source of pure water supply. Where-
ver natural reproduction cannot be
depended upon to cover the denuded
and burnedover lands of most of these ‘
watersheds, tree-planting operations
must be undertaken. While the im-
mediate object of this reforesting will
be protective, timber crops will be pro-
tective, timber crops will eventually
be produced which will yield good
profits on all such investments.” ‘

arm and hand out and there were var-

Northrop has been ill and the shock
particularly affected her as a result.
Today she is obliged to remain in bed.
, Mrs. Burgess' left shoulder was severe‘
ly bruised and at first was believed to
have ”been broken. She was taken
home to Stamford.
MacCormac Seriously Hurt.
MacCormac is still in a serious con-
dition. but it is now believed that he
will recover. His left leg sustained a
compound fracture below the knee and
the bones were splintered and pro-
truded through the flesh. The muscles
of the right thigh were torn and the
‘ieg wrenched seriously. The man's
head was cut and bruised, so that at ‘

first it was thought that there was a
fracture of the skull. Hardly a por-
tion of his body escaped injury.
Mrs. MacCormuc met instant death.
This could easily be realized from the
condition of her head. The frontal
bone was driven into her brain several
inches. Her features were almost 0hr
llterated by the wounds on them. Lat-
er, after her body was removed to the
morgue of Raymond & Son. in Nor-
walk, by permission of Dr. Samuel ii.
Huntington. medical examiner for the
Town of Norwalk, it look a long little
to sew up the many cuts.
Clothing Torn to Shreds.
When Mrs. MacCormac's body was
lifted from the ruins of the car it was
seen that her clothing, of rich and
fashionable material and cut. had
been torn almost to shreds. llor face
was only slightly bruised and showed
that she had been u. handsonu- woman
of about thirty-five years. ilor lingers
were almost covered with diamonds.
Physicians Arrive Quickly.
News of the accident traveled rap-
idly and physicians Wore soon hurry-
Ing to the scene from The Norwnlks.
~A telephone message brought Dr. Jean
- Dninortier, of South Norwalk, and an
automobile was sent whizalug to Nor-
walk after Dr. Huntington. A short
time after the unfortunate affair. an
automobile containing two New ilaven
physicians, Dr. George F. Converse
and Dr. J. 1.. Bradley, who were on
their way from the Catskill Mountains.
happened along. They did everything
they could to care for the injured peo-
ple in conjunction with the efforts of
the local physicians.
inhuman Action of Autolsts.
The occupants of the carriage re-
port a most inhuman action on the
part of the occupants of the automo-
bile with which MucCormac and his
wife are believed to have been racing.
The car was following close on the
heels of the Mucilormacs', and when
the Intter'e car elvcrvod from the road
rushed by at a furious pace and did
not stop, though liurgesu put. up hill

Making a Record Run.
The collision between the Ford and
‘ and the carriage turned over. they
, the carriage occurred In the Town of
Nomalk and about 100 yards from the
Dal-ion town line. The carriage was
on route from disinford to Norwalk,

allowing him but one hand with which
to control the machine.

An instant later, the machine struck
the right forward wheel of the can

ping it off. .MaoOormao was unable
.to keep the car on the road and it
‘sloughod across the road and burdled
up a four-foot embankment into a wire
fence and a big oak tree. It was at
this time that MacCormac went flying
out and the cur overturned, with Mrs.
MacCormac beneath it. The wrecked
machine looked hardly worth picking
up. so badly was it smashed up.
Father Left Him Half I Million.
This was the detest, although the
most tragic of MacOormac‘s expert~
ences. Following his graduation from
the Sheffield Scientific School of Yale,
his father, a Poughkeepsie physician,
died and left him half a million dollars.
That was seven years ago, and the in-
tervals have been brief since then
when ltiuoCormac has not furnished

The climax of his adventures was
. reached when he was named as co-re-
spoudent in a suit for divorce brought
by Charles Iii. Converse. a retired mer-

wife. Incidentally, Converse sued Muc-

Other Accidents.
The accident of yesterday was not
the lirst that Maccormac and his wife
experienced. They had just stopped
from an automobile in front. of their
resilience, No. (iii; West Ninety-fifth
street, when the. gusolene tank blew
up and destroyed the machine:
A Grewsomc Souvenir.
This morning several 090010 Visited
the scene of the accident, and George
Rose, of Price‘s store, secured Mrs.
MacCorInac's hat and automobile veil.
Both were saturated with blood from
the terrible wound in her head.
MacCormac’s Condition Serious.
As soon as the Norwalk ambulance
could be secured MacCormac was hur-
ried to the Norwalk Hospital. where
Dr. Jean Dumortier worked over him
for several hours. Owing to the man's
Weakenod condition it was decided not
to operate on him until this morning.
Today Mac lot-mac is in an extreme-
ly critical condition, but it, is believed
that he has a fighting chance fur re-
covery. It is still a question, how-
over, whether he will lose his left
leg. This and his other injuries were
operated on today at. the hospital by
Dr. Jean Dumortier, assisted by Dr.
Walter Hitchcock and Dr. H. C. Sher-
er. Much of the bone of the leg was
splintered and it was necessary to
remove some of it. The internal
shock the man received is a very ser»
ious one.
Mind 3 Blank.
MacCormac’s mind is a complete.
blank regarding the accident and this
morning he asked Dr. llumortler what
had happened. lie also continues to
ask for his wife, but it, is not yet con-
sidered safe to inform him that she
is dead.
Many Jewels on Body.
Unless sent for today, Funeral DI-
roctor Raymond will place the. body of
Mrs. MacCorniac in the receiving vault
at. Riverside Cemetery temporarily.
When Dr. Huntington made an exam
ination of the remains at the wreck
last evening, he found a great deal
of jewelry on the body. Diamond
brooches. rings, etc. to the value of
$0,000 were “Ike-ll charge of by the
