On last Saturday night the barn
of ii. q. Swlsher, who lives west OF
town was struck by lightning and
burned to the ground. The fire &C.
Cured near midnight and was dis
covered by neighbor living on an
adjoining farm. This nighbor hastily
dressed and ran TO arouse Mr. Swlsher
and just as he awakened him the
whole roof fell IN and walls collapsed
Mir. Swlsher was very careful farmer
aud had all of his farm implements
except lister and harrow stored in
the sheds and lost them all. Besides
he lost five head of horses and two
COWS. Henry Grau, a neighbor, had
put his horse in the barn for the night
and it was burned also. The barn
was covered by insurance, but the
stock and implements we're not. The
loss is severe one on Mr.. Swlsher,
as it leaves him without teams imple-
ments or wagon just at the beginning
of the farming season. Mr. Hickey
the agent who insured the barn was
out to see to the loss, and states that
Mr. s. will get about $780,. for the
loss of the barn
