farmer living near here, and his wife,
aged 66 years, were sitting in the
kitchen, two masked burglars presented
couple and demanded money Mr..
Strominger protested that no money
was in the house.
They threw his wife on the floor and
thrust her apron in her mouth to stifle
her cries. Then by threats they in
duced Mr.. Strominger to show them
where $500 In gold was concealed.
Possessing themselves of the money
they prepared to take their departure
when they noted that Mrs. Stromingel
was insensible. They hastily removed
the apron from her mouth and at.
tempted to revive her. Their efforts
proving unsuccessful they hurriedly
took their departure. One of them
went to neighboring doctors residence
and sent him to Strominger's house, but
Mrs. Strominger was dead.
MIR. Strominger offered reward oil
1900 for their capture, and shortly af-
forwards Painter and two men named
Smith were arrested. One of the Smiths
confessed and Painter was convicted Of
murder and sentenced to be hanged
His two accomplices were sentenced tc

LocKHAvEN, Pa, June 20.-A cloud.
burst in Morgan valley, this county
last night, caused great damage TO crops
and swept away fences, bridges and
outbuildings on farms.
On Plum run Robert Kalenhach and
family were fleeing from their home
which was inundated. He had his six.
months-old child in his arms and fell.
The child was carried away by the cur.
rent and drowned. The body was re,
covered this morning. No other lives
were lost so far as heard from.
The barn of George Thomson, in

by lightning and burned with con
