Last Friday afternoon, during tho
rain storm, lightning shuck the edito
rial residence. Few marks were left,
but all in the house were affected to
some extent. A small mirror that
was hanging on tho wall of the bed
room at tho south end of the hotiso was
struck, but was not broken, although
the quicksilver was melted on one side
and the bottom, and a brown mark was
left on tho wall. Underneath tho glass
a small piece of plastering was knocked
out. J. B. Uorger's watch and chain
were hanging on the wall under tho
glass and a number of links in tho
chain woro (used together, Tho watch
was not running and was not injured.
Lying on tho washstand was a hand
mirror with a metal fraino, and the
glass of this was shattered. Strange
to say, no place could bo seen where
the lightning entered or loft tho room.
The whole house was filled with tho
peculiar smell, and at first it was sup
posed the houao was on lire, but a thor
ough search found no signsof Hro. Mr.
and Mrs. Berger were silting in tho
adjoining room and both felt the effects
of tha lightning. Mr. Merger's shoes
were tacked with copper tacks, and his
feet tingled for over an hour wherevor
thero was a tack and werH tender the
next day, but otherwise tho shock ap
peared to do him good. Mrs. Uorger
did not got over the effect for several
days. Mrs. Sanders was in another
part of the house and was mulcted
helpless for a short time and has been
sick over since. She was able to bo up
unt 1 Sunday evening, but has been
confined to her bed since that time and
suffers severely with her spino. bho
is very weak and nervous. Trixy Sea
bury, who was in tho same room with
Mrs. Sanders, has been nick from tho
effects of the shock. It was a narrow
escape. rIhere are trees considerably
taller than tho house on all sides of it,
and at tho end that was struck are two
trees tiio limbs of which extend over
the roof.
