The heavy shower which visited our
City last “Wednesday. played terrible havoc
in Bridgeport. striking in various places.
The Leader says : " The shower itself was
‘ cloud burst.‘ The clouds themselves lay
close to the ground. and consequently the
city was enveloped with electricity. So
close did the clouds lay that the tops of
our church spires were often obscured by
them as they swept by with well-defined
lines. A man while eating his dinner in
the house of James Allen. had a knife
which he was holding in his hand thrown
violently from him by an electric shock.
The lightning followed a telephone wire
into the store of S. Puncher & Son. and
set the inetru at on are. In attempting
to extingu' t with some water. Mr.
Puncher received a severe chock. It also

badly deranged. The county jail received
a larger bolt than the lightning rode
could accommodate. and the balance
scattered over the bus of the cells in I

Manager Knapp has been fortunate in
securing so good ii. company as John A.
Stevens. in so beautiful a. drama as “Un-
known ” for the opening night at Music
Hall which will be Monday of next week.
Of the play and company we copy the
language of the Chicago Titties. which is
as follows:
In its construction Mr. Stevens has ex-
ercised good judgement and made a. play
that carries tho audience With it. from be-
ginning fn end. The movement has a
sequence that is steadily looked for with
interest as the scenes follow each other.
In this matter lies success of the di‘iiiiiutist.
It is written with a tendency to the ex-
tremely— romantic. school of the later dra-
mas. and is one of the most thoroughly
epigrnuiuiiitic days of the day. The lau-
guago used is c mice and many times of
an eloquent character. Many truths are
told in words of excellent diction and
with telling effect. and Wmf the
thoughts are beautifully expressed. Th0
literary merits of this play are of tlielngli-
est order. But it is diiliciilt tn place it in
any particular department of the drama.

Seventeenth regiment reunion. in New-

previous occasion of the kind and demon-
strated plainly that the old sc'ldiens‘ broth-
erly love increases and grows warmer with
time. A special train from Bridgeport
carried up the Wheeler & Wilson band
and a large delegation of veteran soldiers
and their friends. At Newtown they were
met by other delegations from all over the
country. and a procession was formed
that marched through theprincipal streets
which were gaily decorated for the occa-
sion with the national bunting. The vet-
eriini-i had a grand dinner which was fol-
lowed by very interesting exercises. Gen-
