On an average there are 800 per-
sons killed annually in the United
States by lightning, or only one
person in every 95,0 900. This is re-
assuring. A recent report of the
weather. bureau says the most dan
gerous place in an electrical storm
is under tree. Prof. Langley, the
electrical expert, says "the middle
of the room is the safest place. -
He adds the interest information
that CITY people are safer than
country people from lightning, be-
cause CITY buildings have tin and
copper eaves-troughs and many of
them metal roofs, while wires are
everywhere, all of which things are
good conductors. "If," he says,
"all the buildings in New York
were connected by copper straps it
would be absolutely impossible for
lightning to strike the city"

May 5.-The death OF Magnus By
strom cast deep gloom over this
town, in which he had his home and
where he was so we'll known. Al
though his life was far from pleasant
owing to his health during the past
few years, yet he nevertheless main
tanned a bright and cheerful dispo-
sition, and during his long struggle
for health everybody wished and
longed for his recovery. In intelli-
gence and ability he was beyond the
average. During the campaign Of
1900 he was elected president Of the
Vega Republican Club, in which he
distinguished himself as an able de-
batter, speaker and musician. His
death is mourned bv father, two sis
ters, five brothers many relatives
and a host OF friends. It is a great
loss to this community.
