Lightning striSses a Barn.

On Thursday about the noon hour
there came very sharp clap of thunder
and this was followed by quick alarm
of fire. Miss Edith Feay was the first
to give the alarm and the people (as they
always do in Custer) rushed to the scene
of trouble. 1t was found to be In the
barn owned by the editor of this paper
and of course we were somewhat inter
ested in the situation. The fire company
with their hose cart were on the ground
in remarkably quick time, but they were
anticipated by Mrs. r. S. Lewis, the wife
of our sheriff, Mrs. A. l.. Book and Mrs.
Fred Wiehe, who were there first and
were packing and pouring on water to
beat the band. The ladies are not mem
bers of the fire company, but uno ficially
they proved themselves the best 6remen
of the whole outfit.
It was found that the lightning had
struck the roof of the barn and ripping
the shingles as it went, it passed down
and into the barn and set fire to the
hay. 1t was soon ex.inguished, how
ever, and in summing up it was found that
the greatest damage was done to the old
setting hen which made great fuss and
protested against being disturbed in her
solitary occupation.

The month of May has been very des-
tructive all over the west. Cold bliz-
yards in the Rocky Mountains with
foods and cyclones in Kansas, Nebraska,
Iowa, Oklahoma and the Indian Terri
tory. These cyclones have been dis
tructiye of property but not many lives
are reported as lost. The Black Hills
have been singularly exempt from any
of these devastating scourges thus far,
and we still hope that the good genii
who presides ever the destinies of these
Hills will continue to make them the OBJ.
iect of his special care.
