lightning had jolly time in
the storm of Monday afternoon, and
took the strangest liberties with Au-
gust Buschausen's residence. 1t was
only a miracle that none of the house
hold was injured. The lightning
struck the gable end of the kitchen
tearing off few shingles and por-
ton of the rafters. Then the cleo
tricity took a peculiar course,a por-
ton going through to the cellar and
another part passing through a hall
way to the kitchen and into the pam
try, leaving its mark on shelf in
front of a window,a setting fire to
some curtains i'm one corner of the
room. The family were all in the
kitchen at the time it occurred, but
none felt the shock.
Without doubt the handsOmest
hotel in the county will be that OF
F. w. Gallagher's, at this place,
which is rapidly reaching compile
ton. The bar has already been
opened in the basement which will
later be used as Il pool room and
barber shop, the bar will then be
located i'm the rear of the first floor.
The most remarkable feature i'm the
construction of this well planed hotel
is the rapidity of its erection. Con-
tractor Chas. Lawrence, two weeks
ago was finishing the foundation for
this large three and one-half story
hotel, which is now open for Il bar
business.
DR.. Chas. +. Wackenhuth has
sold his property and professional
interests to DR.. III. G. Wilson of
Warrensville, Pa, who began his
labor here on Monday. DR.. Wack-
enhuth leaves large and lucrative
practice in this section, owing to his
impaired health caused by continuous
driving and hard work. We extend
the congratuatory hand to DIR. Will
son ON having stepped into the shoes
of DR.. Wackenhuth and believe he
will not rattle around in them, but
fill them to the complet satisfaction
of this community. DR.. Wacken-
huth, after few months treatment
and rest, will locate himself for city
practice contining it principally to
surgery. Being well qualified for
this promotion, the best wishes of
his many friends go with him.
Lots of Enjoyment the Features of an
Evening Social.
On Friday evening the lovely
home of Judge and Mrs. Thos. j..
lngham was all aglow-the occasion
being a delightful sociable given by
Mrs. Ingham for the benefit ofRev. f..
II. Powell as announced i'm our pre-
vious issue. 1t was the social event
of the season as almost the entire
population of the town was present.
1t was most enjoyable evening for
all. Good cheer reigned supreme
and all were liberal in buying ice
cream, cake, coffee, sandwiches, etc.
The flower girls also did lively
business. The porch and lawn were
brilliantly illuminated with Japa-
nese lanterns and the several tables
spread on the lawn were continually
filed with patrons. Judge Dun
hams graphaphone was the first to
open the entertainment. Pianist
Herman Ieager filled the mirthful
air with thrilling notes and Miss
May Connolly very charmingly
executed the violinist skill while
several beautiful solos were sung.
The well planned and executed efforts
of the hostess neted about $50 for
the Elder.
