SOME people in South Bend, Indiana,
are burning beans that cost them $3.50
per bushel, as fuel in place of hard
coal. They say that the beans make a
hot fire and with the price they have
to pay for hard coal the beans are the
cheaper for fuel. This certainly is
another phase of the fuel situation.

The Lorenzes of the World.

Ihe LOrenZes OF the World.
Everybody was Interested the other
day in the progress of the great Aus
trian surgeon Lorenz through the
country, when scores of poor crippled
children were brought to him at every.
halt in his journey. A wrench, a skill
full kneading of the poor little bones by
his hands, and the babies were sent
back cured for life.
While here he told story as signifi-
cant as his work: how when he was a
very little, very poor boy he found one
day a glove fine, embroidered, the
glove of a gentleman sign to him
of an upper, unknown life where the
best men. and women lived. He wore
it proudly, quite Unconscious of his rags
and bare feet. .~.
One day his mother said to him
sadly: 'It will be long before you can
earn the other glove, my son." Then
came the history of hard struggle and
defeat. After thirty years, when his
profession was almost open to him, the
outbreak in his blood of terrible &C.
zema closed it's doors to him.
''There seemed" he said in his
quaint English, nothing left to me
but to blow out the brains. Gentle
men, have known what is despair
But this was twenty years ago
twenty years of indomitable work.
Now, famous as great surgeon
throughout two continents, and fol-
lowed by the prayers and blessings of
legions OF poor mothers has found
the other glove
The story of Lorenz reminds us of
that of a poor Portuguese knight who
lived centuries ago. He was starving
in Lisbon one winter when he was
seized with smallpox and was driven to
the fields to herd with the lepers, &C.
cording to the usage of the times.
When he recovered he had but one
thought-to save other men from the
want and loathsome agony that he
had undergone. He carried two lep-.
ers from the streets to his clean gar
ret and begged food and medicine for
them. Soon two more followed, then
other two. Then rich, kindly neigh
bors looked into the matter and hired
the whole house for his slepers and
smallpox patients. The story of his
work spread. Other knights took it
up for the love of Christ; houses were
given to him in several cities in Spain
and France. He nursed, he begged, he
prayed, until he. grew old and white
haired, and, still working, died. He
was the founder of the first hospitals in
Europe.
Surely this old Portuguese San Juan
and this modern surgeon, though CEN
turtles apart by birth, were twin bro
theirs at soul!
The air suddenly fills with crowding
shapes claiming to, belong to the same
family. Father Damien and the black
masked Brothers of the Misericordia
and the trig visiting nurses of Ameri-
can cities; the mighty corps of hospital
workers., the doctors next door to us
who give their skill and time to pau
pers free Of charge; or it may be you
who read helping some helpless neigh
| Dor with your whole heart in the work.
1t is the army of these who love their
brother man, and the Nazarene is their
leader.
1t may be that it is the Christmas
season which has summoned this en-
chanted legion to our view. It is not
dream. Its work will last when the
doings of Kings and Trusts are forgot

THE ELECTRICAL DISPLAY
Was Very Brilliant During the
Storm Monday Night.
SHARP STORM GOES OVER CITY
Vivid and Continuous Flashes Of Lightning
With Heavy Crashes Of Thunder,
But Little Rain.

The electrical storm which passe
over this city Monday was the mos
severe Of any that has visited this sec
ton this year. Very little rain fel
during the storm period, but the -lec
trical display was very brilliant an,
almost continuous.
Flash after flash OF lightning light
cd mp the heavens, in some quarters
the lightning standing out in blind
| ing pillars OF colored fire for seconds
| AT other times the flashes followed
each other swiftly and then would
come the deafening crash of thunder
as it rolled and reverberated through
the heavens.
Many timid persons who are fright.
ened at an electrical storm were moral
ly sure that the end of time had come,
and covered away in the darkest re.
cesses of their homes awaiting the fl
nal crash, and after it was all over
and the elements settled down to their
accustomed calm. they were relieved
and gratified to find that very little, if
any, damage had been done.
While there was very little rain in
the town and to the west and north.
the section Immediately along the
Tascaiora was we'll watered by re-
freshing fall of rain, which broke the
long and discouraging drought in that
section. Everything this morning
about o'clock presented fresh and
wholesome appearance, and If the
weather man will guarantee net to do
any more damage than no did last
evening. he has permission to send
another storm Tuesday night.
The thermometer took sudden lump
after the storm, going up several de-
grees. Today it registered nearly 80
in the shade. with no prospects of
cooler weather.
STRUCK BY LIGHTNING.
The sharp flash of lightning Monday
night struck the flag shaft on the
Shenandoah Pants factory and shatter-
ed it The large steel sheet at the
bottom of the pole is all that saved the
building, for when the bolt struck the
meter it glanced off and this saved the
building from being destroyed or par
TALLY wrecked.
A bolt was conducted into the cleo
trio meter at the residence Of Postmas-
ter Alex Clohan by wire, which
caused sudden darkness in the house,
as the fuses i'll the meter were burned.
There was no damage other than the
destruction of the meter.
AS far as reported this was all of the
damage that was done in the city by
the lightning Mold W night.

Howard II. Emmert and Allen B.
Noll were named as trustees. and it is
expected that thew will continue the
business until the stock at present in
the store room is DISPOSED Of.
While the friends of Mr. Wolfes re-
greet to hear of his embarrassment.
they believe that it VIII be only tenn
porary. and that he will come out of
the ENHANCEMENT in good financial
shape. 1t is thought that Door collec-
tions were chiefly responsible for the
assignment, and say that Mr.. Wolfes
had resources to meet all outstanding
obligations, which will be paid in
full. No estimate of the assets and
liabilities could be furnished today by
the trustees. An inventory of the
