Llghtning's Freaks

J. D. Sayer, of Leavitt, was in
town Tuesday, and gave us an ac-
count of how lightning gets in its
work around his premises. First it
hit the gate-post, and the next proof
of the presence of this abrupt visitor
was that the wood box ir the kitchen
was on fire, though no trace of where
it entered the building could be seen.
This was soon extinguished, and then
it was discovered that the little co1ored
boy with the watermelon on his head
had been very suddenly relieved of
his burden near the gate, though not
damaged personally. Several people
in the packing house near by were
stunned by the lightning, and Mrs.
Sayer got the effect of it on one foot
it being slightly burned, causing it
to swell considerably, At the pack
ing house there was no sign of the
visitation on the building, and it is
supposed that the shock to the peo-
pie came from the ground.

OPPOSE $500 BROKERS TAX.
Real Estate Exchange Files Protest With
Senate Committee.

The recently reorganized Real Estate
Exchange is strongly opposed to a tax of
$500 on real estate brokers. A commit
tee OF the members of the exchange has
sent to the Senate District committee a
letter protesting against such a tax.
The committee states that while the
Senate bill Dies not propose such a tax
there have been suggestions by individual
Senator's of this nature. and they wish,
for this reason. to point out the arguments
against il.
They state that the real estate brokers'
already pay $50 year tax. and many of
them $50 additional as insurance brokers'.
The committee also suggests that the
bin should specifically exempt from tax
alton promissory notes secured by deed of
trust on real estate, for the reason that
any such tax would simply result in in
crcasing the rate of interest which the
brokers would have to pay. thereby. they
say. depressing the value Of real estate.

he resorted to unusual pressure on Sem

Ijeve that there would be.

tior of some OF the amendments to the
