This region was visited, between nine and ten
o'clock Sunday evening, by another great thunder
shower, which was hardly less notable for its in
tensity than the one on Friday. For about an
hour the lightning was very frequent and vivid,
the thunder loud, while the fall of water for few
minutes was immense. Nervous people found it
hard to go to sleep readily during such q noisy
time, and their fears were in W Use allsyed when
the clangor of the city bells sounding the alarm
Of fire was added to the din of the elements For
during the storm the barn and carriage house of
j. S. and A. W. Craig, on the Geo. Pullen road,
near Coombs' mills, were set on fire by an electric
explosion and burned, together with most of their
contents, including the seasons crops of hay,
grain, the farming tools, etc. A few of the tools
were saved. Loss about ST 800; insured for $500.
The bolt struck the east end of the barn. and in a
few minutes the whole building and carriage
house were in flames. The light as seen from the
city illumined the western horizon nearly to the
zenith, causing alarm of fire to be rung from
the churches. The di stance, however, made it
impracticsble for the fire department to 90 to the
rescue.
