Endless Thanks to the Search.
ers of Our Lost Son, Mar
lin Burns.

We cannot find words that will
convey our heartfelt thanks to the
people of Middleburg, Paxtonville
and the entire surrounding COM
munity for their earnest and diligent
service of searching for our dear lost
child.
Such Il strenuous, untiring effort
as was made by every one was i'll
deed marvellous; although while it
is impossible to do so, we only wish
it were possible to thank each and
every one individually for their
earnest service, the result of which
has turned grief to joy.
We are also greatly indebted to
the officials of the shoe factory for
closing down; to the people of the
planning mill for doing likewise; to
J. F. Stetler for abandoning his
work with his men, and to Prof.
Killian for closing his school and
with his scholars, joining the search
ing party.

The Storm near Pallas.



From our rnas Correspondent
The storm which preceded the
rain Tuesday evening, May Sth, cnt
a wide swarth up through the val
ley from Mtiserri!Ir to Crmbb'-
church and Paradise church, this
county, leaving devastation and
terror in its wake. Dwelling houses
were uurootcd, foundations shaken,
barns demolished aud beautiful
sturdy frees laid waste.
The following are among the
Sufferers Of the storm:
James Graham, almost entire
barn unrootcd; Henry Ehright, barn
nnrooitd; Daniel Garman, barn un-
roolcd; John ". Tca,s. Chapman
twp, log frame house partly moved
on its foundation and partly unroot-
cI, summer Kitchen blown topicccs;
Large bank harn torn by lightning
and almost entirely demolished.
Several parties were present.
among them the owner-barely 10y
good luck saving their lives.
The owner, Mr.. Tca,s, was Just
returning from Meiserville and be-
ing near the barn in his buggy when
the storm struck him. On his side
the hig apple and cherry trees snap
ped and went down with crashes
which started his team onthc cantcr,
and looking up, he was presented
with an awful sight. His fine large
bank barn went to pieces right be-
fore his eyes, the large beams being
snapped as easily as twigs. TIL"
next instant lightning struck th"
house.
The suppo,ition is that the barn
was first struck by lightning and
torn up thus giving the storm more
chance. A few minutes before the
storm Willct Mayer had driven up
to the barn with the intention of
driving inside 1.-THE storm should
have subsided, but changing MS
mind he drove of. That no doubt
saved his life and also that of his
horse, as the heavy beams, in falling,
would undoubtedly have crushed
them both.
