Lightning Struck Barn About 0 o'clock Wednesday morning during the shower a heavy bolt of lightning struck the burn at Lou Timermnn's place near Stella , and the little boy who was playing in the barn was so badly shocked that it was first thought the injury was serious. The bolt played havoc- with trees , boards and other obstructions in its path besides tearing up the earth at the boy's feet. Romano Timmerman was sit ting in the window when the bolt struck and ho saw the ball of lire us it seemed to envelop the barn. When the men of the houserush - G'out \ to where the lightning had struck they found pieces of the tree over 150 feet from where the bolt had made splinters of a handsome tree near the barn. On reaching the barn they found the little boy lying palo as death , and it was first supposed that the bolt had struck him , but they soon saw that ho had only been knock , ed to the ground and was fright ed worse than ho was hurt. The barn was tilled with smoke and had it not been raining violently lently there is little- doubt but what the building would have been consumed by lire. Fortu nately the damage was only slight and aside from the severe shock no ono was seriously injured.

It seems to bo true the more a woman is abused the more her liking for her tormentor. Take E. W. Howe , for instance he is always saying something mean about women. His paper is full of slaps at them. And yet when he recently visited Lincoln the women presented him with a bo- quot for his ell'orts in behalf of womankind.

Attempt to Poison Entire Family. A very sensational complaint was filed in the county court last week by Edward Buell , in which he charges his son-in law , Harry Cowell , with an attempt to poison the entire Buell family. According t o complaint , Cowell on the 28th of February , mixed an ounce of concentrated lye with a quart of coffee in an endeavor to take the lives of Edward , lone and Alba Buell , as well as that of Mary Cowell , his wife. A warrant was issued and the young man was arrested on last Tueshay at his home near Nemaha , and brought to Au. burn. He was given a hearing before Judge Parrott , and was released under a bond of $1,000 , which he immediately gave. According to statements made to the deputy sheriff by the young man the charge and arrest is clue to trouble existing in the family. Mr Cowell is but twenty-one years of age , while his wife is much younger , and the cause of the trouble is said to be the result of inter ference on the part of the wife's family. Those conflicting stories will be threshed out at the preliminary trial in the county court on March 27th. Auburn Herald.
