Lightning Pierces
Plates Near Pierce;
Does Not Break Them
Up In Pierce county, north of Pierce,
the rain, storm Wednesday night was ac
companied by much lightning and In some
places it played peculiar freaks. Bob
Tate of Omaha owns a .ranch up there,
near Plalmlew. He heard from there
that the ranch house had been struck by
lightning, though not much damage was
done.
Tate's man on the ranch had Just fin
ished supper and he and tho members
of the family had moved back from the
table. About this time the lightning
truck the chimney of the house and
came down Into the room where the peo
ple were sitting. It started for the table
end got It. Holes were cut through the
plates as round and clean as If they had
been made with drills. The plates wero
not broken
After the worst of the storm was over,
the man In charge of the ranch went,
looking about, and on the table and on
the floor found a lot of little balls a-j
round as marbles, and of the same ma
terial as the kitchen dishes. Ho reached
the conclusion that the lightning cut
the holes through the plates, melted the
material of which they were made and
then rolled each piece Into a ball.
Determined to be ready to wield the
ballot when It Is given them, women of
the Kqi-nl .Franchise society, secured
Hurley G. Moorhead. election commis
sioner, to speak to them on "Klectlon
Laws." The meeting was held nt the
homo of Mrs. K. H. Fairfield.
Mr. Moorhead explained tho workings
of the election laws, the officials neces
sary to execute ,the laws, and tho diffi
culties encountered In certain wards
In explaining who was entitled to vote.
Mr. Moorhead stated that "any one born
In th s country Is entitled to vote, even
a Chinaman."
"Kxcept women," was tho instant re
joinder of Mrs. Z. T. 1ndsay, ardent
suffragist. Mr. Moorhead then quali
fied his statement.
Following h's talk, the speaker offered
to answer any questions propounded
him. These are a few of those asked:
"Are all voters required to register?"
"Will there be a separate ballot box
for men and women?"
"Is there n law forbidding voters be
ing taken to tho polls?"
"Who aro Douglas county legislators
who voted for the election bill?"
"Are 'being 111' and 'out-of-town the
only excuses accepted for not voting?"
Another questioner wanted to know
whether women watchers would be per
mitted at polls at the next election.
"They may watch the counting of votes,
but they will not tie permitted to get
close enough to Interfere with the count
ing," replied Mr. Moorhead.
"Anyway, It promises to be an all
night session so don't think many will
want to."
Dr. Oonnell is Back
from Inspection Trip
Dr. R. W. Connell, city health com-
mlssioner, returned from' Chicago after
spending two days there Inspecting the
methods employed by the health and
sanitation departments.
"Chicago has nothing on us," said Dr.
Connell, "In fact we're getting moro
for the money we spend than they are
I didn't learn anything I didn't already
know.
"They are spending from $200,000 to
$300,000 a. year for medical Inspection In
the public schools and it has proved
worth while. We ought to have medical
lnpectlon of school children here In a
more thorough manner."
MAN WHO INTERFERES WITH
BALL GAME IS SENTENCED
John Keller. 1116 Dodge street, who has
an Ingrowing disposition, noticed John
Norton, a small boy, playing ball on
Dodge street between Eleventh and

Uncle Sam wants a fattner, an expert
male farmer, If you please, and for tho
services of one who can qualify for the
position, he will pay- $1,600 a year, to
gether with quarters, subsistence and j
laundry, or what Is more familiarly known
as "room and board." As wages for farm
hands go, Undo Ham Is boosting the pay
a little, for most private Individuals
would hesitate some time before offering
3125 and board for a farmer.
However, the qualifications of. the gov
ernment are somewhat higher than the
usual demands for farm hands. The ap
plicant for this position, which Is under
tho civil service, must be skilled In farm
accounting, time keeping, reports and
cost statements, care of gasoline engines
and dairying as carried on In the Irriga
ted districts, and tho care of n range
herd of more than 2,000 head "of cattle.
Examinations fcr this position will be
held on June 17, at Omahn. and a number
of other cities. Other examinations for
civil service positions, as aid In handling
poultry and eggs and for land grant col
lege specialist, will also be held during
June.
