FEARFUL LIGHTNING STROKE.

+ Last Thursday afternoon, about five
o'clock, large crowd had assembled in
the Fair Grounds of the Springvillc Union
Agricultural Association, when sharp
Thunderstorm came up. The rain began
to fall, and the crowd sought refuge from
its effects in the exhibition sheds. A fash
Of lightning took place, accompanied by
a loud peal of thunder, and instantly an
awful spectacle was presented.
The Lightning struck one of the sheds
which contained men. women and horses.
About hundred persons were paraIyzed
in an instant, falling on their faces, and
as mauy as fifty were rendered insensible
for fire or ten minutes, while about doz-
en- were quite seriously burned. Two hor-
scs were killed on the spot An old gen.
tleman named John Gordenier, and two
OF three others, are not expected to re-
| cover. One woman was prostrated and
deprived of her senses, but not her power
of locomotion she instantly jumped up
and ran to the omnibus aud was conveyed
to Holmes Hotel, and declares she had no
knoviedge of what took place after the
fash uutil she found herself in room at
the house
The lightning struck a post in the CEN
tire Of the shed, against which Heury I'll
lou, the landlord of the West Falls Hotel,
was leaning, aud to which horse was at
tached by chain halter. The horse was
instantly killed, while Mr.. Tiliou escaped
by being dazed and Knocked down. A
sing sular fact mentioned in connection with
the strange freak of TIE electric fluid is
that all the persons rendered inseusible fell
Oh their faces.
A young lady named Miss Nellie Cas-
scy, who wore a white and black checked
aress, was quite seriously injured, and her
dress was fairly scorched, but did not take
fire. Another woman was stuck On the
shoulder, The fluid passing down her side
raising perfect blister in its course. a
man from Otto was bit on the right side
of the head, and on his recovery the mark
was found to confluence at the right eye,
which was swe!led like puff ball, and
could be plainly traced down the neck,
across the chest, and off the left arm.
The most fearful CONSERVATION existed
among the people until it was discovered
how light the iDj uries were that had been
inflicted, and TIE excitement was most in
tense. A great many attributed the stroke
to the attraction Of moving machine
which stood near the shed, but two boys
who were sitting on it at the time escaped
uninjured, nor was the machine at all
damaged, if struck.
A valuable mare which was htched to
the pole was knocked down and died on
Friday from the effects Of the lightning.
Ifsuch thunderbo,ts visit Fair grounds,
other establishments may expect to be Wis
tied, but, thanks to the genius of the I'M
mortal Fronklin, ample protection is affor
ded to all who avail themselves Of the SER
vices Of lightning rods.-Brtalo (NI)

HUMBLE LIFE.

Tell me not that he's poor man,
That his dress is coarse and bare;
Tell me not his daily pittance
Isa workman's scanty fare.
Tell me not his birth is humble,
Tha. his parentage is low;
Is he honest in his actions!
That is all L want to know.
Is his word 10 be relied on? /
Has his character no blame.
Then care not if he's low born
Then care not whence his name,
Would lie from an unjust action
Turn away with scornful eye!
Would he, then, defraud another :?
Sooner on the scafold die.
Would he spend his hard-s gained earnings
On brother in distress
Would he succer the afflicted
And the weak ones wrongs redress
Then he is u man deserving
Of my love and my esteem,
and care not what his birth place
In the eyes Of man may seem.
Let it be a low matched howell
Let it be n clay-built cot
Let it be the parish work house
in my eye it matters not.
And if others will disown him,
As inferior TO their caste,
Let them do it'll bcfriend hin
As a brother to the last.

THE MUSICIANS MARRIAGE.

After having passed the summer in Wis
iting the principal towns of Germany, the
celebrated pianist, List, arrived at Prague
in October, 1915.
The next day after he came his apart
ment was entered by straDger-an old
man, whose appearance indicated misery
and suffering. The great musician re-
ceived him with q coidiality which he
would not, perhaps, have shown . noble
man. Encouraged by his kindness, his
visitor said

"Where is the money!" he asked.
"Thcre, sir,' replied the man, pointing
to the open drawer.

A MAN ATTACKED BY A LI0N.-A PER-
F0RMANCE NOT IN THE BILL.


The following we take from the Roches
ter daion of July 5:
Last night, during the performance OF
Messrs. Thayer & Noyes' Great Circrs
and Collection of Wild Animals, most
frightful accident occurred
At the termination of the circus per-
formance a huge den, containing four
ferocious lions, was dragged into the rins.
Mr.. Charles White was then introduced,
and iearlessIy entered the cage and com
menced performing with these brutes.
The performance consists of the lions
jumping through hoops, and over barrels,
and concludes with Mr. White feeding
the animals raw meat out of his hands
The performance went smoothly along for
several minutes when it was observed that
one Of the lions, vicious looking fellow,
seemed 10th to act his part, and White
commenced punishing him with his whip.
This so enraged the beast that he sprsng
upon Mr.. White, telling him to the foOr
Of the cage, setting his jaws into his
, body, as though he intended to ca, the
follow up. 1t was very soon noticed that
a Iart of the programme was being en-
acted not advertised in the bills.
The canvas was filled to its utmost,
many ladies being present, and the scene
which followed battles description The
furious roaring Of the lions, creaking of
the breaking bones Of this unfortunate
man, and the screaming Of the women,
was more than the stoutest heart could
stand. Men who braved the danger of
the battle field, and saw death in its every
form, turned pale and trembled.
A few seconds only elapsed, when it
was noticed that Nero, noble lion, rush
cd forward to the rescue Of his keeper,
and in the meantime Messrs. Thayer and
Noyes, with their usual presence of mind,
with few Of their attaches, rushed to
the cage armed with bars of iron, axes
and everything that was conveniently near
and commenced beating the brute of hiJ
keeper.
In this they soon succeeded, and Mr..
White was taken bleeding from The lions
den and carried to the National Hotel,
where be now lies in a very critical stu
alton.
DR.. Whitbeck was called in to dress
Mr.. Whites wounds, of which there arc
many. His right shoulder is most hor-
ribiy mangled by the sharp teeth and
ponderous jaws of the excited and furious
beast
Every attention possible is shown to
this unfortunate gentleman by Messrs.
Thayer y Noyes, and it is hoped that,
with good care and the skiliful treatment
of Dr.. WhitDeck, Mr. White will recover.
The circus closed with this rather trag-
ical performance, and has left the city,
taking these lions TO exhibit elsewhere.

ARIsTOCRACY.-One of the parvenu
ladies' of Cincinnati, who would be won-
derfully aristocra.ic in AL her domestic
concerns, was visiting at the house of
Major C, (all know the old Major,)
when, after tea, the following converse
ton between the Majors lady and "Top
knot" in consequence Of the hired girl
occupying seat at the tea table;
"Why, Mrs. c., you do not allow
your hired girl to ca: with you at the table,
do you?"
"Alost certainly do. 1t was so when
you worked for needn't you Iecollect ?"
This was a "cooler" to silk and satin
greatness, or, as the boy calls it, Goldfish
aristocracy." After colering and SIAM
mering, she answered in low voice:
"Yes, believe it was" and went home.
