Thursday night, while the lecture
room of the SecondP PresbyterianUhurch
was crowded with those enjoying the
pastors reception, there was a little
party of people in the main room up

where be was. Just at that particular
time Rev. H. H. Beaale was joining In

considerable difficulty in getting an

Got His Mad I'm.


AL. Laning has got bis mad up, and
consequently is quite noisy. The
Chronicle shows it this week. He talks
real naughty, and intimates that the
postmaster and bis next door neighbor
do not pay their bills.
Who the next door neighbor is, is a
question. Possibly he refers to DIR.
Kirby or G. R. Scull, who occupy the
building adjoining. 1t is also just pos
sible that he refers to us. If SO, it is
no fault of ours. We were born poor
and have held our own amazingly. II
AL. will please pay us the little bill be
owes US, he can help relieve US. 1t is
not the first time we have helped out
some dead beat printer and then had
them go back on us.
AT the last meeting of the Board ei
Freeholders, the county statement
was ordered printed in the Chronicle,
together with other papers. AIS of
flee not being supplied with material
sufficient to print the statement request
ed us to do it, which we did. AL. has not
even hinted at paying the bill. Nc
wonder we keep poor, while we are
obliged to run our own Office and that
of our neighbor.
Then again AL, your remarks would
carry more weight if you would pay
Postmaster Hewitt the 475 Won oue
him. And it might not be out of place
for you to pay back the $25 you
overcharged the city on the contract
for printing the last Water Works re-
port. AL. pay up, or stop talking sc
loud.

Lightning at Deerffeld.

Lightning played havoc about the
premises of Rev. A. j. Snyder at Deer
field, during the shower Sunday. 20
Mr.. Snyder and his family were at
church, and during the shower Charles
Vanleer was sitting at his window and
saw bolt of lightning descend and
strike the chimney of Mr.. Snyder's
house. That was all he saw then, but
what was shown afterward developed
that the antics of that streak of light
ming would have been terrific to a
family of people had they been in the
house
The bolt split itself all up; it circled
the chimney and descending to Mr..
Snyder's sleeping room, hurled brick
from the chimney through the bed
stead in the room, and splintered
things up generally: the fluid going on
to the room below, knocked over
chairs and tables and set fire to and
burned up lot of fpapers in the room;
descending to the cellar it bursted
through the cellar wall out into a DO
tatoe patch, where it struck row of
potatoes digging them out completely
for a short distance. Other portions
of the fluid took to the spouting around
the root, which it tore off and scattered;
made boat knees of the water spouts,
and jumping off to string Of fence, it
knocked fenca noef ont of thn oronpd
throwing it into tho road several feet
away, and running down the fence
toward the barn it knocked the boards
all OF the fence and exhausted by its
quick work disappeared by digging
hole in the ground big as barrel.

the Church made no mistake in max
ing this call. [applause.
The membership at the commence
ment of Mr.. Beadle's pastorate was
one hundred aud thirty-three. Of
that number, the record shows that
only 80 are at present upon the roll.
Some have gone from the place, and
others have passed on to the great be-
yond. Only within a week two of
these older members have died. There
is now membership of four hundred
and seventy.
The speaker then turned to Mr..
Beadle, and that gentleman arose and
faced Mr.. Fitbian. The latter said: II
have no charge to make to you. Twen-
ty-five years ago you received from
loving lips charge, beautiful in
thought, and you can never forget the
words:
II would" said he, like to report
to him you loved so we'll, that he might
know how faithful you had kept the
trust he reposed in you." The speak
er continued that he came last night
with the cheerful greeting of the
church, and he wished he could find
words sufficiently strong to convey
their thankfulness for the work of Mr..
Beadle. He knew the pastor had Civ.
en- them words of love, cheer and COM
fort in hours of sorrow. No man can
tell how many through the PASTORS ef-
forts have been brought from death to
life, but some time, when all shall not
see through glass darkly, will see
them as stars in his crown. May you
enjoy long long years of usefulness,
and when you have finished your work
you will find very many over there
waiting to welcome you.
Mr.. Harding then announced that it
had been arranged to have one of the
young men of the Church make an ad>
dress, but at the last moment word
had been received that he was sick.
Rev. John Sheppard, who was present,
was called upon and made short ad.
dress. He dropped reminiscence and
looked into the future. drawing strong
inspiration from the past for success.
ful work in the future. eco
It was at this point that Mr.. Beadle
came forward. AS he faced his con.
gregation, storm of applause swept
over the room. 1t died low, almost
ceased, then was caught up again and
echoed and re.echoed from all parts OF
the room. Mutely MIR. Beadle stood
and his agitation and emotion were
plainly visible. It was some moments
before the hand clapping permitted
him to say anything, and the first
words he said were:

CAUGHT II In HIS HAND.
Daniel Sharp Receives a Bolt Oi
Lightning.

Sunday morning about eleven
o'clock lightning struck the flag staff
on the house occupied by Capt. VIM.
Terrell and Daniel Sharp, at the corner
of Church and Cedar streets; besides
shattering of the flag staff, very little
damage was done. Capt. Terrell and
wife were not at home at the time of
the accident. Daniel Sharp, who oc-
cupies the sonth half of the house,
was up stairs, and seeing the storm
coming up, went from room to room to
close the windows. On going into the
bath room he noticed a flesh brush,
which he had been using a short time
before, and concluded that he would
clean the soap from the bristles. He
turned on the spiggot, and just as he
placed the brush under the running
water there came report, land instantly
d ball of fire appeared, which seemed
to burst. Mr.. Sharp was thrown vio-
lently against the wall; the brush
which he held was splintered and his
hands badly bruised. His right hand
began to swell and turn purple, and
terrible stinging pains passed up mis-
arm. He received no other injury.
William Mcdowell was passing along
Church street at the time and received
a severe shock, which paralyzed his
right arm. This morning the arm was
better, but he has no use of his fingers.
Mrs. Geo. Dare, residing at No. 60
Church street, was leaning against
window and was also injured, receiv-
ing the shock in one of her arms,
which is terribly swollen.
