During the heavy storm oflass Satnr-
day lightning struck the big elm tree on
the Dyer meadow splitting it right
through, also Tom Meehan's barn, set
ting fire to it, but fortunately the flames
were soon quenched. Several were more
or less affected and Jake Farmer probably
does not care to have repetition OF his
experience. He was at work on the
Storrs house, using a new chisel, and
this the Lightning forced from his hand
leaving him dazed and suffering from a
peculiar sensation through the arm which
continued all day.

We are pleased 10 be able to report
that the committee appointed to solicit
tor the sale of Electric Light Co Stock
have met with great success, and we are
justified in the assertion that De entire
amount required will be subscribed ere
the week Is out. The avidity with which
the business men took to this matter is
significant of the fact that the town S ON
the mp grade and we hope the citizens
will continue to be enterprising. The
power will in all probability be taken
from Corruth's water power at East
Charleston, and transmitted at a high
pressure To the town where the pressure
will be converted TO that required tor
lighting purposes. The complete plant
when erected will be a model one, and
Island Pond will have as good aai mod
ern equipment as there is in New Eng
land. Mr. Henry E. Fitzgerald and MIR
Eiviu NJ. Bartlett, as the soliciting com
mittce, deserve great credit for their
good work, and the conditions have de-
yelopcd with great rapidity since these
gentlemen were appointed. Mr. Boyle
will survey the pole line this week, which
will without doubt be 4 straight line
from this town to East Charleston,

as Agricultural Hall, with the lot upon
which IL stands-about three-elghths of

ulated that it was made without sub
uniting the right OF the State TO the

Judge Simonton denied the motion OF
