Tuesday Nights Storm.

Quite a heavy rain storm came up
Tuesday night about ten o'clock, accom-
panied by much thunder and lightning.
The residence OF Charles Bagley in the
east part Of town was struck but not
much damaged. The residence OF Dick
Kerwin northeast Of town was also
struck and considerably damaged. The
lightning seemed to have struck the
chimney and run down the gutter that is
between the main part and an addition
and melted loose several tin shingles,
shattered rafter, tore off shingles and
went into the rain barrel. The light OF
the electricity and the smoke caused
Mr.. and Mrs. Kerwin to think the house
was on fire, and they commenced to get
the family out, when they found the
house was really not on fire. None OF
them were hurt except the hired man
who was slightly stunned. 1t was a
close call.
Sam Handles who was in town yester-
day says he was at Templeton Tuesday
night when the storm came up and went
to the hotel and while there a store
building just across the street was
struck and very badly wrecked.

THE SHAH'S VISIT
Fears That He Will Disturb the
peace OF ROYAL Kousekeepers.

LONDON, April 1l.-With mind
full of apprehension and misglvings
the lord cham berlain has directed that
the proper arrangements be COM
menced for the reception and enter
tainment of the Shah OF Persia, the
runor of whose approaching visit TO
Paris and London this summer has
been confirmed by official dispatches
from the British minister at Teheran
The visit OF the present snah 8
predecessor, old Nasir-ed-Din, WHO
visited London a few years before his
assassination, is'well remembered. Al
ter his departure it was found neces-
sary to entirely refurnish all the apart
msnts OF the palace occupied by his
roysl highness and his retinue, owing
to the fact that the carpets, tapestries
and other furnishings had been COM
pletely ruined by the insistence OF the
royal guests that all their meals be
cooked as we'll as served in their own
apartments in accordance with Per
sian customs. 1t is the RENE N brance
OF this fact that causes the lord cham
pertain ana Ms ASSlStaots W looh ioi
ward to the approaching visit with
anything but pleasure.
According to announcement the shah
will be accom- panied by two ministers
aud by several princes OF the roysl
house The shah expects to spend
some time at watering place in the
Caucasus before starting for Europe,
and will arrive at Moscow early In
June. From Moscow he will go to St.
Petersburg, then to Berlin and next to
Wiesbaden, or Hamburg. He will
reach Paris In July and after spending
couple of weeks viewing the sights of
the exposition he will come to London.
On his way homs he expects to visit
Vienna and Constant!nOple.

The Beers Very Much Alive
And Fighting
Hard
behind ALL Wells
1t Looks As If Roberts

LONDON, April 1l.-Press reports
from Brandfort stating that Dewet, at
the head of the Boer column had given
the British another hard knock at
MeerketsfonteIn, killing and wound
ing 800 aud capturing 900, Is causing
uneasiness.
Tue war Office .discredits the report
of such a disaster, but this fails to
calm the public Siu view of the press
dispatches which report the Beers
very active in that vicinity.
= Braoant's position at Wepener
adds to the public agitation. Scraps
of news regarding his critical posi-
tion have coma through, showing that
he has been attacked by the Beers in
force.
Follo wing this came report to-
day that he had besn forced to evac-
uate Wspener. This also is dfscred-
tied by the war Office, which has is
sued dispatch from Lord Roberts
dated Bloemfontein yesterday as fol-
lows:
1.-THE enemy has been very active the
! past few days. One command is on
the north bank of the Orange river
near AHwal North. Another is attack
ing Wepener, where the garrison Ia

The fact that Gstacre is recalled
Riges credence to the story that
Wepener, which Brabsnt had been
holding, bad been evacuated owing to
Gatacre's tardiness in conducting the
relief of that place.
