BARN DEsTRoYED BY LIGHTNING.--About
five o'clock last Friday morning, the barn of
Mr.. George A. Cairnes, near Jarrettsyille, was
struck by lightning, set on fire and destroyed.
Three wagons, threshng machine and other
farming implements, which were in the building,
were also burned up. Three hogs, which were
under the barn, II is thought were killed by the
lightning, there was nothing besides to have
prevented their escape. Mr. Calrnes' team was
ready harnessed TO draw load of hay TO Balti-
more, and the driver, while waiting for the rain
to cease, took a nap, In a short time he awoke
and just as he stepped outside of the barn, it
was struck. He was slightly stunned, but re-
covering quickly he cut the team loose and saved
IL. The entire building, he says, appeared to
be in flames at The same instant and nothing
but the horses could be saved. There is an in
surancc of $500 on the building and 5000 on the
contents, in the Farmers Mutual Company, of
York, Pa.

ACCIDESTs.-On Friday of last week Frederick
Schultz, middle aged German and an inmate
of the Alms-house had his left arm accidentally
broken DIR. Dallam set the member.
Mr. Il. Thos. Hays, son of the late Dr.
Geo. Thos. Hayes, of Aberdeen had one of his
arms broken and an artery severed by kick
from a horse, one day last week.
One day last week, says the Delta Herald,
as Henry McCool, of Peach Bottom township,
was riding young horse near Paper Mill bridge,
the bride bit came loose and the horse started
to run. McCool tried to reach for the horse
nose to stop him and was thrown to the ground,
the horse treading on him and breaking, it is
said, three of his ribs. lie was not otherwise
severely injured and at last accounts was so far
recovered as to be able TO go about.

vided for the storage of canned goods. The

The Engineering says that the Anglo
American Electric Light Company
have commenced lighting the dials Of
the clock tower of the British House
of Parliament. At first the western
face was illuminated, but the effect was
marred by the dirty state of the dial
and the absorption OF much of the light
by the brick wall behind it. "a few days
later the northern dial was cleaned and
the interior of the chamber .whitewash-
ed. Three lamps of 1000 candles each
were arranged at equal distances apart
at the back OF the dial, producing an
illumination which for brilliancy and
steadiness leaves nothing to be desired.

in a speech that Ohio, Kentucky and
Indiana sent their hay Stacks, corn
fields and fodder to New York and
Philadelphia for sale. Mr.. Wicklife,
of Kentucky, called him to order, say
ing that those States did not send hay
stacks or corn fields to New York foi
sale. ''Well, what do You send, them"
asked Mr.. Stewart. "Why, horses and
mules, cattle and hogs" well, what
makes your horses and mules. cattle
and hogs? You feed one hundred dol
lars worth of hay to a horse. You jus.
animate and get on top of your hay
stack and ride il off to market How il
it with your cattle? You make one OF
them carry fifty dollars worth of ha,
or grass TO the eastern market. How
much corn does il take 10 fatten a hogP''

During the use-clcnuiug the house will be prnc-
ticnlly closed TO visitors. but afer Il Is over the
rooms will be open, ms usual TO the public. Tho
Executive Offices viii remain open during the alb
toncc oithc President which will bo until about the
middle OF The month. Owing to the illness of Mrs
Garfield, Colonel Rockwell has not determined
upon any plan for rehrnishing and rc6tting the
house, Congress at tho last session appropriated
SSoWW for this purpose. but Il has been
found that the ordinary rcpain and in
nideninl expenses require $4,000. only the
balance Is considered available for the purchase

moved Owing to the action Of the Senate during
the exirn session in authorizing the Committee on
Public buildings and Grounds to sit dnrlng the
recess for the purpose OF examining tho condition
OF the Whiio House. no comprehensive plan OF
improvements will be begun this year Several
members OF the committee have inspected the
house. aud Colonel Rockwell has conferred with
them relative 10 this matter While no definite
! action Dos been taken or any plan OF
improvement agreed upon. yet II was
X the opinion OF the committee that some radical
plan OF improvement should be adopted In order
10 mako the White House inhnbithble and worthy
TO be the residence Of the President. The com
mittec win convene again here before the meeting
of Congress. 1t is highly probable that steps will
be taken either to remove the Executive Office to
another building or else to erect residence for the
President in another part Of the city. One plan
proposed Is to remove the Executive Offices to
rooms in the State Department and ft up the en-.
tire White House for the OF the President and
his family. There is no doubt that the committee
will recommend some plan 10 Congress, and, in
view OF this probable action, Colonel Rockwell
will this year only make such repairs
to the house as are absolutely necessary.
The purchase OF new furniture will be regulated
by this probable action OF the committee and only
such furniture purchased as is considered neces-
sary, Colonel Rockwell has plans prepared for a
very handsome pavilion to be erected In the
grounds south OF the White House for the use of
lthc Marino Band. but he will not begin the ercc-
liop this year. Tho illness of Mrs. Garfield which
Is largely attributed 10 the unheaithiness OF the
. house. will cause prompt and thorough measures
70 be adopted to prevent anything of the sort in
