Lively Lightning Ht PhOeni1v1lle.
Village Record.

During the severe thunder storm of
last Friday night, the sharp lightning
with which 1t was accompanied flashed
around the works of the Phoenix Iron
Company at PhGnixVille, in a lively
manner. One bolt struck the Office of
Clarke, Reeves & Co., bridge builders,
and did some slight damage to it.
Another bolt penetrated the erecting
shed in which a man named Stiteler
was at work, and he sustained slight,
but not serious injuries, while still
another knocked several men off their
feet in another part of the works. For
tunately none of the buildings were set
on fire and no one was badly hurt. The
Grew of the shifting engine used in the
yards state that what looked like q
ball of fire descended and struck the
ground directly in front of the engine.
The engineer and fireman felt the
shock quite vividly and the engine
"fairly ratified" as they state it. Be-
sides the above, other damages were re-.
ported in various parts of the borough.
A bolt of lightning penetrated the
earth on Buchanan street, and plowed
up that thoroughfare for several yards
about % nicely as 1t could have been
done with plow. Atthe General Pike
Hotel, on the edge of the town, a large
number of the window lights were bro
ken by severe thunder peal that hook
the entire building and very much
frightened the inmates.

journed until Wednesday morning,

Francis Hxnes Hanee;I.

LIMERICK, Sept. 11.-Francls Hynes
was hanged at eight o'clock this morn
ing. He endured the pinioning and
recited his prayers calmly, Only a
slight tremOr was perceptible immedi-
ately before the bolt was drawn. Death
was almost instantaneous. A large
crowd outside the Jail awaited the hoist
ing of the black flag, many praying for
thecor vict' soul. 1t is not known wheth-
er HynGs made statement previous to
his death, but it is certain that up to
Sunday he denied any completely in the
murder. A military guard was held in
readiness and seven hundred extra Po-
licemen from northern counties we're
drafted to Limerick in view of the pos
sibility of a disturbance. During Sun-
day prayers were offered for Hynes in
many of the Catholic churches in the
counties of Limerick and Glare.

Published IN . Spanish newspaper ol
an outrage recently committed by q
horde Of banditti ct Fuensanta, q
watering place irequented by the elite
Of Peninsular Society. 1t appears that
one night q large party of fashionable
holidaymakers had assembled In the
grounds attached to the principal hotel,
when suddenly Q number Of men,
armed to theteeth, presented themselves
at the main entrance to the garden and
levelsd their muskets at It's occupants,
exclaiming: 'Todo el mundo beca abajor

Civiles, or gendarmes, who happened to
be near the hotel at the time, and these
brave fellows charged the brigauds,
but were received with volley which
stretched them dead upon the ground,
as we'll as the landlord of the hotel, who
had armed himself with revolver and
volunteered to share their courageous
enterprise. The bandits then endeavored
to carry the hotel by storm, but were
unable to break In the doors, and, after
several Intellectual attempts to effect
an entrance, withdrew, carrying with
them, however, the murdered landlord =
two young daughters, since ransomed
by their relatives. Next day, as may
well be imagined, Fuensanta was
evacuated by Its summer visitors, and
left for the remainder of the season to
Its native inhabitants, whose prospects
Of legitimate spoil have thus been shat
tered by their professional rivals in the

FLOATING I'm THE CREEK.
The Body of q Man Found this
Morning.

Morning.
About 3 o'clock this morning as two
employees Of the Old Ferry Rolling
Mil named Walter Peace and Joseph
August were standing near Third street
bridge, they saw the body of a man
floating In TIE water, about twenty
feet from the shore. They went down
around Mr.. Bareford's mouse to the
waters edge, and with boat hook sue
ceeded In drawing it ashore and fas-
tened 1t with line. Word was imme.
diately sent to the Coroner and to I'm.
dertaker Palmer and both wentto the
place. The man seems to be stran-
ger, and although there WAS o large
crowd present no one recognized him.
The body has the appearance Of having
been in Che water several days, and is
very much swollen and somewhat de-
composed. The lips had been al
most eaten off by fish or crabs. He Is
dressed in dark clothes and has on
pair OF hne boots that have recently
been repaired.
About 7 O'Clock Undertaken Palmer
removed the body to the Morgue, whore
all inquest will be held. After the
body WAS put In the box, William d.
Sparks came to the place, and said that
man named William Jennings, q
boarder Of his, has been missing since
yesterday morning. At that time he
left home to go to work at Harlan's
and nothing has been heard of him
since. TIE body OF the drowned man
p rtially answers his description Of
Jennings, but 1T appears to have been
in the water for a longer time. There
are others around the bridge who
think that tie man belonged on bome
of the fishing boats that come up to
get ice.

No BACK.

In one Of Hans Anderson's stories,
he speaks of an old elf lady, who, when
she went into company, made very
genteel appearance, only she had no
back. There are many people who suf'
fer so mahy aches aud pains and weak.
ness in that part of the body, that they
almost wish they had no back. But
these pains, etc., come from kidney
disease, and there is a medicine-Hunt's g
Remedy, the great kidney and liver
medicine-thaG works to such charm,
that one taking it becomes, like the eli
lady, unconscious of a back, though
unlike her in having a whole, sound,
and perpendicular back. Hunts Rem.
edy has back of the stiffest kind, for
its mission is to support the weak, and
heal the ailing, and this it is doing All
over the land.

Sad Result Of an Accident.

1t was stated several weeks ago that
Mr.. Joseph Bassett, of Dover, Del
while engaged in cutting wood mile
or two from that place, snlit his foot
open with an axe. hut walked the on
tire distance, TO his home in Dover, at
which place, he has been sutf ,rer, un-
til Tuesday lasC when death relieved
him Of all further pein. The State Sen.
tinel says it was rurored that while
Mr. Bas-' tt was GA his way home, after
splitting his foot open, that he met a
team on the road sud offered his last
dollar if the party would bring him
hore, but was refused. The Sentinel
is 10Th to believe, however, that they
have any such heartle-s wretches in
that section. 1t is to be hoped that
there is no truth in the assertion, and
that the large town of Dover is not dis.
graccd with such mean mal. AS
was stated above Mr.. Bassett died on
Tuesday and his wife. who had caught
blood poisoning from her husbands
wound, died from its effects on Friday
morning and one Of the children is also
i'll with the same disease and not ex-
