One bolt of heavens-controlied fluid put the electric lights out at the editorial home, and caused the editor to have seventeen kinds of fits when his little daughter Hazel received a shock from the bolt, being burned slightly above the forehead, leaving the mother and daughter with bad headaches and the editor and Master Duane in a state of daze over said event.

Guardians Appointed for the Szydzik Children The seven children of Michael Szy dzik, who was killed several years ago by lightning, and of his widow, Roza lia Szydzik Derdowski, who died a few weeks ago, were all brought be fore County J udge Smith and R. H. Mathew, attorney for the estates, last Saturday, for the purpose of having a guardian appointed and looking toward the finding of good, perma nent homes for the children. Stephen S. Polski of Ashton was selected by the relatives as guardian, after which various brothers and sisters of Mr. and Mrs. Szy dzik, deceased, applied for the temporary custody of the chil dren, which was awarded as follows: Aloizi to John Szydzik. Edmund to Anton Szydzik. Mary to Susie Otiewski Zaworski. Michael to Ignac Januelwicz. John to John Rewolinski. Harry to Wenzel Rewolinski. Quite an active contest developed over Leon Szydzik. aged 13, as Joseph Syzdzik, an uncle, and Mrs. Frank Cnilewski, both wished to take him. Both are of good families and so the judge has taken the case of this child under advisement and tbe boy will be left at tbe Joe Szydzik place thirty days and at Frank Chilewski’s place thirty days, after which time more evidence will be taken with a view to securing the boy the best permanent home. Most of the children were taken by their god-parents, and Jit speaks well for Snerman county, and tnese children in particular, that it is easy to find good homes for such a large family of young children.
