BEE. } The destruction of a house near
Vj'more b.x eloctricitj , an account of whicli
appeared in this morning's Bin. : is worthy of
jnore tlmn passing notice , the peculiar
uctlon of the current beinc very unusual
After the lightning struck an eyewitness
declares , there arose from the house a vapor
like smoke , while for u momunt lire could he
steen in every part of the structure. A brisk
liroeze was Mowing at the time , yet the
house did not take lire and the only damage
done bytbeoagoney was in tbe nature "of
spots or large holes hurned into the carpets ,
lace curtains , bed clothes and clothing.
which were ruined but not destroyed.
Tlie entire front of the two-story , 24xfj : (
frame dwelling-ivas thrown into the front
yard The walls und pupports of the roof
were broken and twisted in evor.uireetion ,
riving the building tbe up ] > earance of hav
ing been blown up by gunpowder. Every
piece of furniture , except one bedstead con
taining a feather l > edwas broken as were
ulso all the crockery and dishes. The
strangest feature of the affair , however , is
the fact that Mr J O Miller , the owner ,
was at the time sitting within two feet of
, the kitchen stove , which was broken into a
I liundred pieces , and was not hurt.
The other members of the family were out
of doors and received only slight shocks
Hundreds of curious people have visited the
Accnc , as .nothing of the kind ever occurred
before in that neighborhood , which , us a
rule , is generally free from severe electrical

Charles Dudley Warner said : "The time "would come when some inventive genius would enable us to drop a dime
in the slot and take out a complete education. This is the invention.
I < - In the days of the empire in France it was the proud boast of the nation that a marshal's
j ' , . baton was in the knapsack of ever } ' soldier. ] n this country and in these days we have a
' grander and a prouder boast
In our higher civilization and more perfect Government we are the creators of our posi-
r'tions. No accidental circumstances of birth or condition bar our ambitions. We are equal in
I ' Citizenship and in the realization of life's rewards. One man is successful more than another
' only in so much as he makes himself so.
Ours is the heritage of a glorious past and a present that is ever up and read } ' for tlie
future. We are something more than mere workers. There is an individual ambition in us
that makes us the peer of any people on the globe , We are not content to sit our lives out
working at the-foot-stools of others. The mechanic aims to be a master , the painter an artist ,
the clerk a merchant , the laborer that he may gain recognition.
In the high positions of honor and trust filled by men not yet in the zenith of their lives , in
the well filled classes in which young men and young women spend thejhours of evening in Study ,
.in the libraries that are patronized to their full capacity , aye , and in the little library , too , which
! is the pride of even the humblest Ameri can home , there is evidence that die parents and their
sons and daughters realize that mind is the ruling power in this newer and greater world.
We have passed the ruder stages of our civilization , a.nd what best fits a man to grapple
with living issues , what best enables him to discern improvements , to suggest inventions , to
cope with others whose brains are their capital that is what tells in life ; and the more varied
the accomplishments the greater the possibilities.
In this connection it is that the WORLD-HERALD suggests to young men and strongly
recommends the Encyclopedia Britannica. There is no field in the world , of either mental or
physical activity , which it does not cover. It is the result of the critical labor of the best
scholars compilation of history , the story of the achievements of years , a panorama in which
scenes are called up filled with information that no college course can give. It is an education
in itself. It costs but a trifle. One dime a day put away in the bank , a cut of which is here
given , will secure it No man needs anjr other library , no man could have a better one. One
cigar less a day , one little deprivation that will save a dime , and you have a treasure that will
prove both a pleasure and a lasting benefit

vised to date , with an entire equipment of new maps up to date , making Jt superior even to the
great Edinburgh Edition , which costs $ S.QO per volume.
