Fire br5ke out Tuesday evening Ia the
pabli- school building at Soottdale, and,
the water supply being shut of at She
reservoir, the flames soon reduced the
s,ru,fure % AN utter mass of ruins. The
buflding. which WAS erected only
q few years ago at cost of $4,000,
.,,ntsined eight school rooms, large halls,
Principals Office, and a fine library,
which was also entirely destroyed.
Warknlen had been repainting and reno
vstiug the building on Tuesday, and it is
sunpo,ei they len some fire about the
place when they quit work The build
ing was partially insured. The board
will have to rebuild at once,
About o'clock Friday morning Ed
mund Holsopple's large barn, in Paint
Township. about a mile and a-half east of
Holsopple. was struck by lightning andr
soon after destroyed by fire. The ire
was discovered by Miss Barbara Makin,
who Immediately called Mr.. Holsopple
and his sons. They lefi at once for the
barn and rescued horse. y few secs of
harness and several wagons were also
taken out Of the building. The barn,
which was fifty feet wide and hundred
feet long, contained about eighty tOns of
new hay. together with a lot of oats, wheat,
rye buckwheat, etc. Mr.. HolsOpple eSti-
males his los at s., go. There was no b.
surance on the barn or contents.
The residence Of J. J. Folk, near Sal
isbury Junction, was struck by lightning,
Sunday, the current passing down the
chimney, thence to the heating stove and
10 the earth through the floor. Mrs. Folk
was in the room at the time and the shock
was severe enough TO throw her to the
floor. Although very greatly stunned she
soon revived and for awhile appeared to
have sustained no serious injury. Later,
She WAS taken III and medical aid was
summoned. We suppose this was due TO
the shock and we hope the effect may
prove Of temporary nature. Mr.. Folk,
Paul Werner and ID. l.. Baer were also in
the room and slightly shocked. Dam
ages 70 the building may reach slO0.-
Meyersdale Commercial.
