the fact that so far the storms have in
every instance except one gone around
or beneath us without even raining
enough to wet the ground. But it is the
"going around and beneath" that gets
on to my nerves. In the first place i'm
agine what it is to be one and one-half
miles nearer a rip roaring thunder
storm than one is at Pittsburg. There

here it is one continuous, dazzling.
awe inspiring performance. The light
ming strikes. too. for it is no uncommon
thing during q storm to hear the rocks
splintering and cracking where one es-
pecially vigorous bolt has landed.
Add to this nerve racking exhibit the
most awful detonations of thunder that
you can imagine and straight blow
