SNOW IN AUGUsT.-One of the worst
storms ever known at SlatiDgtoD, Pa,
occurred Saturday afternoon. The
wind blew a gale and hailstopes as
large as hickory nuts fell. Nearly
every pane of glass on the west side OF
houses ami stores was smashed. Trees
and signs were blown down all over
the town. The temperature inside OF
fifteen minutes dropped from 80 de-
0rees to Ga. The hail created a panic
among horses on the streets at the time
and runaways were numerous. Many
of the drivers jumped from their seat
and rushed to places of shelter: Frui
trees were ruined. At Rockdale snow
covered the ground and boys and girls
of the town engaged in snow balliog
contests.
