LIGHTNING STRUCK.
ELLSWORTH VISITED BY SEVERE
ELECTRICAL STORM.
ELLSWORTH LUMBER CoMPANY's MILL
BURNED-A HORSE KILLED-oNE
OTHER BUILDING STRUCK.

Ellsworth was visited by one of the
most severe thunder showers it has ever
experienced last Saturday evening. The
lightning struck several times, the most
serious damage being the burning OF the
Ellsworth Lumber Co.'s mill. The loss on
mill and lumber is estimated at from
10000 TO $4,000. There was only 5000
insurance.
Ii was about 9 o'clock when the shower
broke over the city. 1t was about 80
O'Clock when the mill was struck.
Waterman Bresnahan had Just left the
mill, and as he looked back after deafen-
ing crash that almost stunned him, he
says fire seemed to spring from every
part OF the mill at once. In a few min
utes the whole building was in flames.
An alarm was quickly given, but the
mill burned rapidly and the firemen, be.
ing compelled to work with buckets and
hand-engine, were at disadvantage.
They succeeded In saving the boarding
house, however, and kept the fire from
spreading to near by lumber piles. About
one days saving OF lumber was burned.
While the loss is estimated at nearly
SIS, 900, it is impossible even approx
mately to estimate the loss which will
follow indirectly. The company has
about 100000 feet Of lumber in logs
which it will have to dispose OF or manu-
facture at loss. 1t Is probable that
arrangements will be made for the manu-
facture of lumber at the steam-mill at
Ellsworth Falls. 1t Is also probable that
portable mill will be set up tempo
By the destruction of the mill over fifty
m en- are thrown out of employment.
The Ellsworth Lumber Co. Is composed
of Hon. Eugene Hale, Hon. A. P. Wiswell,
DR.. A. c. Hagerthy, A. W. King and ]. T.
Giles. The mill was located on one Of tt 9
dams for which Massac husetts parties
through l. l.. Halman were negotiating
with view to the development of large
water power here. The destruction OF
the mill may Indirectly hasten these me-
gotiations, as a member OF the company
said yesterday that the mill would be re-
built unless they were assured that the
deal for the dam would be closed.
About half an hour after the mill was
struck, and while 1t was still burning,
lightning struck the stable at DIR. A. G.
Hagerthy's residence on Main street. The
weather vane was knocked off the cupola,
and shingles and boards were ripped from
the building. Fortunately the building
did not catch fire from the bolt. The loss
is comparatively small.
During the same shower lightning
struck In the Tisdale mill yard and set
fire to pile of wood near the boarding
house. The fire was extinguished only
after a stub born fight.
A mare owned by Morrison & Joy was
killed by lightning in Jeremiah Hurley's
pasture on the Stabawl road during
the shower. The mare was with a colt
about six weeks old, and was being pas
tured by Mr.. Hurley. The colt, which
belongs to Mr.. Hurley, was uniniured,
There was no mark ON the body OF the
horse, but 1t was evident that the animal
had been struck dead instantly.

Letter to Chas. III. Emery,

Dear Sir: Most painters Insist that lead and
oil is good for three years; but they also insist
that 1t needs going over again in three years.
1t is as much as to say it's good job of paint
that last three years.
Which is true; and better that last six years.
Lead and oil lasts three; Devoe lead and zinc
lasts six.
When paint begins to let in water. then is
the time to repaint. 1t may be one year; 1t
may be ten. Lead and oil lasts three, IL well
put on; lead and zinc lasts six If ground to-
gether and well put on. But painters are bet
ter acquainted with lead than with zinc. Zinc
Is newer.
Devoe lead and zinc is the proper mixture,
ground in oil by machinery; same proportions
as used by the U. s. Government.
Yours truly,
80 r. W. DEvoE & Co.
