was filed with sand from the surrounding
hills, neceSsitating a force of men to
men to make the roadbed passable. The
flagstaff on the state prison was broken in
two, and a large pipe connected with one
of the mills was blown down. The
boom of logs near Hersey 81 Beams was
broken, and number of logs belonging to
Isaac Staples and Hersey & Bean floated
down the stream. The only serious acct

ELECTRIC FREAKS.
Three Buildings Struck by LsEht-
ning--Damage Very Small.

Minneapolis was visited yesterday by a
particularly demonStrative storm. with
thunder and lightning. The early atmos-
pheric disturbance lasted from 4 to )
o'clock, and was accompanied by terrific
thunder bursts, with the noise and regular
ity of minute guns. The scarcely ssper-
ceptible intervals between the flashes and
reports told the clouds were very near the
earth, so there was little surprise when 1t
was learned that the lightning had struck
several buildings. The most serious damage
was done at the Foss NJ. Z. church. where
the Steeple had been struck. The fluid
passed through into the ground. SCATTERING
windows. tearing off plaster and splitting
partitions. The damage will reach 5000.
The former residence of w. ID. Washburn.
corner Fifth avenue south and Seventh
street, was struck. but beyond SCATTERING a
flag pole and cracking one side of the Gu
palO. no damage was done. At the corner
OF Hennepin avenue and Thirtieth street
two outhOuSeS were demolished and two
telegraph poles in the same vicinity were
fiattened out. In the midst of the storm a
bolt Of electricity in some way turned in an
alarm from the Syndicate block and called
out the fire department.
The air was full of rumors all day and
reports of fires and death by lightning were
eXasperatingly frequent. But within the
limits of Minneapolis the damage was very
slight The usual Overflows occurred in
South Minneapolis, but no serious damage
was wrought.
ANOTHER HOUSE STRUCK.
The frame dwelling No. 2401 Twenty
seventh avenue south. was struck by an
electric bolt in the early morning storm at 5
o'clock. The house is owned and occupied
by S. l.. Lepradd, a sleeping-car porter on
the Hastings IL Dakota road. He was alb
sent, but his wife and Hattie Wier. the
daughter of a neighbor, were sleeping in the
upper front room when the discharge oc-
CURED. The bolt tore through the roof into
a closet knocking shingles and plaster, tear
ing adoOr from its hinges, and splintering the
head of the bed in which the two persons
were sleeping. Fortunately neither was
injured. The woman was awake, and saws
she was blinded and stunned, and afterward
was nearly smothered by the sulphurous
smoke. Her escape was little less than
miraculous. The damage to the house will
amount to about $780,

To-day nearly every grocery in Mime
apolis will be shut up. and prudent house
keepers have already laid in supplies against
this uncommon occurrence. The grocers
are not on a strike. They are merely going
to an annual picnic, where they expect to
lay up sufficient energy and pleasure TO run
them for the ensuing year. They had COM
pleted every arrangement last night. and
the managers, with a last assuring glance
skyward, had gone to bed in full hope
of a pleasant day overhead. At the
lowest estimate 1000 people will at
tend, while the more sanguine
say 5000 is nearer the correct number. The
special train will leave the union depot on
the Manitoba road at SIS, reaching Way
Zata at S:45. The Belle of MiEnetOnka will
be in waiting there to convey the crowd on
a trip around the lake, taking in the Upper
lake and returning to Minnetonka Beach at
l, where dinner Will be served in picnic
style. The afternoon may be spent in what
ever manner the eXcurSiOniStS may elect,
and any regular or the special train will
return them to the city, when the day is
done.
Special amusements will be provided in
the shape of afternoon sports. y game of
base ball between the members of leading
grocery firms will take place on the rear
lawn. There will also be rowing and tub
races, tall mems and short mems races, and
also a fat mans race, if the contestants
will come TO the scratch. Other sports are
in contemplation, including a free-for-all
foot ball match on the lawn. BrOOkes

Twice Bitten by RattIesnakes.

Troy IN. W Times
George Archer, an employee of the Waldo
Marble Company, at Fairhaven, VT, was
bitten twice on the hand by rattlesnake
Sunday. Archer was in the woods near
Inman Pond, and, seeing a large rattle
snake, he caught the reptile with his hand
about the neck, thinking to secure the snake
alive The snake resented this familiarity
and twice inserted its fangs in Archer's
hand. The snake was killed and Archer
started for home, about three miles distant.
On his way he encountered another rattle
snake, about four feet long, which he
caught as he did the first one, put it in a
basket and brought it home. Archer's arm
had swollen to an enormous size, but it is
thought he will recover. He had been
drinking at the time he was bitten, and as
he has been kept filed with liquor since
that time, it is thought his life will be
spared for other exploits.

ALerrer From Kerr.

Ed Kerr, brother of the deceased alder
man, yesterday received a dispatch from
brother in Canada telling him that Robert
is dead. Sadie wants you to come home at
once" In answer to this he tele-
graphed that he would leave at
once, which he did in company
with Mrs Al Tozer, sister of Mrs. Robert
Kerr, and Mrs. William Sauntry, her niece,
the party going direct to Quebec. The
investigations still continue into the books
of the concerns with which Kerr was con-
nected, no startling deficiencies, how
ever, being found. Ed Kerr received,
1t is believed, a registered letter
from his brother, which had been ten days
in transit yesterday. 1t contained 500 and

whether Mrs. Kerr will return, but it

''Some of the papers like the GLOBE,
which take an interest in sporting matters,
should sit down on these sO-called amateurs
who enter in what are called genuine
amateur races" said Prof. c. o. Duplessis
last evening ''What is an amateur, then?"
'Oh. the definition, or rather the distinc-
ton, Is longs my ARM as Bobby Burns
says. An amateur is a man without a
record who enters for himself and pays his
own expenses; who has never contested for
money or medals against a professional, and
so on. Why in half our matches and sports
the alleged amateur entries are simply
farces." Prof. DupleSsis was, at the time,
vigorously engaged in arranging the Gale
DOMAIN sports for to-day, the amateur
features of which lent force to his remark.

The water in the Susquehanna river at
Nanticoke broke through the workings
Of No. ! slope OF the Susquehsnna Coal
Company this morning, and at noon
there was about six feet OF water in the
slope. An alarm was sent through the
workings when the danger was appa-
rent, and all the men, except seven
Hungarians. who are missing and who
are believed to have bees drowned.
hurried to the mouth Of the slope and
were rescued. The mules and most Of
the tools were saved.
Later adyices from Nanticoke state
that thirty men employed on rock
work in No. slope are reported to
have been imprisoned in the upper lifts
by the rapid rising Of the water.
Several miners entered the slope at 3
O'Clock with boats and will use every
means to reach the men. There is
considerable excitement among those at
the mouth Of the slope, whe are anx-
iously awaiting the return Of the rescu-
ing party.
The disaster Of Nanticoke is more
appalling than was at first anticipated.
The theory that the water broke through
the bed Of the river has been dispelled
by the fact that the place whence the
water came is over 1000 feet from the
Susquehanna. In tracing the water il
was discovered that IL flowed from a
pool on the surface, in which il lad
collected from some springs near cy.
The water had then followed the rock
TO fault in the seam, which was the
first outlet for IL. Ii then ran into the
gsngwsy and slopes, and thence to the
lower working Of No. slope. When
the water was discovered rushing into
the slope there were nearly 1000 men
and boys at work in the yari-
Gus openings, but at the particular
spot where the water first appeared
there we're not over thirty persons at
work at the time. II is reported that
there are now about twenty or thirty
men in the face Of one Of the gangways,
who are shut in by the water and rub
Dish that have accumulated in the gang
way. 1t is impossible to say what their
fate will be. Rescuing parties are now
following the face Of the chambers Of
that part Of the gangway which is filled
-ith w-tCr md rrh'hh s'' o.. = Is
OF reachirs the mel some time during
the night. The officials say that there is
no danger Of the men suhocating, as
they will get plenty Of air from the
faces OF the chambers that are now filled
with water and rubbish. Pumps will
be put into operation this evening.
They have a capacity Of removing two
thousand gallons Of water per minute,
and it is expected the mine will be
cleared by Monday next. Old miners
are Of the opinion that the men will be
rescued alive.
