A D,.astrous Thunder storm

A DtsRstrOus Thunder storm.
 DOVER, July 5.-Last night nobody real ized the amount of harm done by yesterdays thunder storms and rains. This morning whsn the employees of the Cocheco print works went to work they found one store house filled with print cloth which was to be dipped to day. Forty cases of prints, each case containing 2,250 yards, total value $3o.- 900, were submerged in water and very much damaged The superintendent of the print works recently bought very large stock of British gum on account of the change in the tariff and much of this was destroyed, val ued at several thousand dollars. The flood destroyed very large stock of colors in the color shop and other store rooms. The flood was caused by the collapse of a street sewer The city will be sued for the loss on the ground that the sewer was defective. Light ming struck in many places in southern New Hampshire, doing much damage. Oliver w. Knolton of Durham, aged forty two, was instantly killed by lightning Farmers re- port that the storm caused great havoc among fruit trees, potatoes and other farm produce About every pane of glass in the residences of Sophia Young, Ezra Hayes and Moses Houston in Harrington was broken. Several young cattle were killed. One farm CT claims that his loss is $10,0 GOO Telephone and telegraph wires are generally prostrated.

 A real fat, shiny black baby is far from being dissgreeabie object, but the mongrel type is There is something absolutely un- canny in being stared at by dull, dusky, muddy little face with reddish hair, rather light eyes, enormous blubber lips, and pro truding stomach propped upon spindle shanks, with the leg in the middle of the foot The two types do not sssimilate.

no doubt the sparrow. The points which
 serve to establish his identity are apparent He is not indigenous but soon after his arri- val began to make himself obnoxious to the natives, thrusting himself into the best places, and bullying and driving away the few of whom cared to stay in their long used haunts with him for near neighbor. He is brisk, loquacious, noisy and quarrel some not really formidable, but contriyin2 to appear 30 revelling in garbage, fouling
 his own nest, defling places that had always and scattering his filth indiscriminately upon all who come in his way. An impudent and disreputable bird surely. Some worthy and well meaning people helped to bring this dis oreditable bird into his present relations with the public in order to see what he would do. There were some real and some Imaginary evils which they thought he could remedy. They knew his character well enough, that he was selfish, insolent, lawless and full of efrontery, but they hattered themselves that he could not do much harm. and might dis cover and destroy other vermin worse than himself, which they had come to believe might be found doing secret mischief some
 where. They have tried him and do not like the result of their experiment. They have discovered that most of the evils they feared were imaginary, and the few which were real were not nearly so exasperating or misehiev- ous as this troublesome bird, with his bad temper and dirty habits He has not done has been more discreditable and annoying than any other bird could be. Many of the persons who welcomed him at first are now more eager to get rid of him than they were then to give him a trial. He has had his day, and, happily, there is one particular in which he differs from the sparrow to the dis advantage of the latter-it is easier to get rid of him
