During the severe shower on Sunday after
noon, the house of Mr.. John Curtis of Farm
ingdale, was struck by lightning. somewhat
demoralizing the chimney, and playing vari-
Gus innocent antics about the premises. No
one injured; but the family received quite an
electric shock which they do not care to have
repeated too often. Mr.. Curtis was on his
way home from church when the shower
overlook him in the vicinity of ''Slab city,"
giving him the appearance of ''drowned
rat" in the shortest space of time imaginable
Several DRINKS occurred on Saturday even
ing, as natural accompaniment to the circus,
though the circus company appeared to be
remarkably sober and quiet during their stay
in the city. Most of the drinking carried on
was by outsiders and out of town parties.
Several spent the night in the lookup, but
were released on Sabbath morning in season
to prepare for attending church! Whether
or not any of the number availed themselves
of these religious privileges, we are unable
definitely to state.
That seized barrel of rum was condemned
by Judge Gilman on Monday, no claimant
appearing for the rescue-sO the vile COM
pound will find the gutter without carving
numerous victims with it.
Messrs. HAYES & Warren have placed over
