NUMBER 35
HEAVY RAIN ON
TUESDAY EVENING
Residence of F. M. Broome Struck
by Lightning. Damage Slight
OVER AN INCH OF RAIN
Over an inch of rain fell in Alli
ance between half past six and half
past seven o'clock Tuesday evening.
Accompanying the rain, which at
times fell in torrents, was a great
amount of thunder and lightning.
Shortly after the storm started a
bolt of lightning struck the two
story and. a half residence of F. M.
Broome at seventh street and Lara
mie avenue, doing some damage but
injuring no one. Mr. and Mrs.
Broome, Miss Broome and Dr. Hlrsch
man were in the parlor on the first
floor at the time the bolt etruck. At
first they thought that the barn,
which stands about sixty feet from
the house, had been etruck, until the
sulphur fumes began to penetrate
the rooms. The bolt had apparent
ly struck the gable on the went, div
iding and running down the roof
along the metal parts. ' At each
point where the current left the roof
and entered the house, the wood is
plainly burned. A number of shing
les and in one place a heavier board
were knocked from the roof, the
rain coming through. After leaving
the roof the different parts of tho
bolt seem to have entered nearly ev
ery room upstairs, leaving holes in
the plastering where it entered and
knocking the plaster loose in some
places. The escape from injury of
everyone and the fact that no fire
was started from the bolt, seems
miraculous.
, 'The Herald phoned over a large
portion of Box Butte county yester
day in order to ascertain the extent
of the rain. M. A. Brown, living
thirty miles north, reported a good
shower but probably not as heavy as
at AMiamce. Perry Mailey, seven
teen miles west, reports a heavy
rain, probably as heavy as at Alli
ance. Hemingfard reports a good
rain. J. A. Keegan, who has the
government gauge on his farm four
miles east, reported only seven
tenths of an inch of rain.
The rainfall for July was heavier
than usual, for this section, the gov
ernment gauge showing a total rain
fall for the month, or 5.65 inches-

ALL OLD PHONES
Nebraska Telephone Company Find
Metallic Service Much Ahead
of Old Style
COMMISSION GIVES AUTHORITY
The Nebraska Telephone Com
pany, owners or the Alliance ex
change, installed an entire now sys
tem on March 1st of this year. At
hat time the rates were advanced
fifty cents per month on account of
the betterment in service, permis
sion for this being granted by the
State Railway Commission, which
has authority to state what tho
rates shall be.
About seventy-five users of the
old phones did not sign contracts
for the new metallic circuit, pre
ferring to use the old grounded sys
tem, at less cost. Because of the
fact that the metallic circuit service
is so much better than the old ser
vice, and because of the fact that
the grounded lines have an unfair
advantage over the new lines, at
less cost per month, the State Rail
way Commission has given the com
pany authority to cancel all ground
ed line rats, beginning September
1st. Most of the subscribers who
have been using the grounded lines
are signing up eontraeta for the
metallic circuit.
Following is the letter sent to the
grounded line subscribers by the
company:
Alliance, Nebr., July 31, 1913.
Dear Sir: Permission having been
granted the Nebraska Telephone
Company hy the Nebraska State
Railway Commission to cancel all
grounded line rates at Alliance, we
wish to notify you that effective
Sejrtember 1st, 1913, our grounded
line service will be discontinued
The rates for metallic service will
be:
Individual Line Business $2.50 per
month.
Two party
Line Business $2 per
month.
Individual
Line Residence, $ 1 ..10
uer month.
Two party Une Residence, $i.J.
per monin.
We trust you will continue to use
our service at the new rate and In
the near future we shall have our
representative call on you in refer
ence to signing a new contract.
Yours very' truly, . '
