storm, which in point of severity was the

away, but no one was injured. The bolt
set the telephone in house two blocks

clock in the house. The rain fall in half
an hour was nearly an inch. An ocean
View train, with 400 passengers aboard,
was caught in the storm, but, besides a
severe scare no one was injured. The rain
did great damage to growing crops.
