A special from Fairmont says:
Twenty Buckhannon and Northern

supplies for the gangs of men who will
soon be at work In that section.
Within few days the big tunnel
which lets the road Ia from Jake's

out buying stone for it and Right

will run. The tunnel will be about
eighteen hundred to twenty-five hun

Ferguson and Edmondson, who have

Mules, horses and wagons and men,
who will work for the sub contractors
were plentiful on the streets of Fair

amount OF merchandise they pur-
chased from local merchants went a
long way towards making the sales
look unusually large.
Railroad building will move on at
rate that will be surprising from this

Reliance and Shamrock III. Of

Erie Basin.
TIME IS ALLOWED CHALLENGER
Reliance Considerably Larger All
Around Than opponent--Sir Thomas
Upton an Interested Spectator.
Boats Now at Sandy Hook.
nt--Sir Thomas

New York, Aug. 1s.-The Reliance
and Shamrock Ill were measured in
the Erie basin by c. E. Mower, the Of
fetal measurer of the New York yacht
club. As the result of his measure
ments and calculations it was an
nounced that the Reliance would al
low the challenger / minute and 45
seconds over q S0-mile course.
1t was found that the Shamrock Ill.
WAS slightly longer on the water line
than the American boat, but the latter
proved to have nearly 1000 more
square feet of sail area than the chal-
lenger, and it was this enormous sail
spread that taxed the American boat
SO heavily.
The announcement Of the time al
lowance In favor of the challenger
caused little surprise at the yacht
club, as 1t was the very general belief
that the Reliance would prove consid-
erably larger all around than her op-
ponent.
Both Boats Ready fer Race.
The Reliance and Shamrock III.
swing lazily at their moorings inside
Sandy Hook, ready for the interna-
tional contest for the American cup,
the first race of which will be sailed
on Thursday. The Shamrock Ill mere
ly returned to her old mooring place,
the Reliance coming there for the
first time. The day was one Of ex-
n al n
ested In the international race, being
devoted to the official measuring and
final groomings of both yachts. Tho
cleaning of the underbodies of both
was completed and Charles d. Mower,
the official measurer of the New York
yacht club, stretched his steel tapo
from truck to deck, and from end OF
the bowsprit to the extreme point Of
the after oyerhaRg of both racers.
AS one result, about eight inches of
the end of the spinnaker boom of the
Shamrock III. was sawed OFF, owing to
the fact that it was estimated to be
that much longer than the base of the
forward triangle, which covers the
head sails of the yacht, which would
mean penalization II allowed to stand
Worked Watched With Interest.
Sir Thomas Upton, as well as Mr..
Iselin and Designer Herreshoff and
Designer Fife, were interested specta-
tors Of the work Of Mr.. Mower. De-
signer Fife evidently desired that
Shamrock III. should be measured
while down by the stern as much az
possible, for everything movable. even
to the jib sheet leader blocks, was
moved, and slowed amidships. The
measuring was completed at 4:45
O'clock and both yachts were warped
out OF the basin.
After supper for the crews the tug
Guiding Star took the Reliance In tow,
while the English tug Cruiser perform
ed the same service for Shamrock iii.
both yachts arriving at Sandy Hook,
at about shutdown.
Whether either the cup defender or
the challenger will take a spin today,
depends entirely on the weather
Should there be fine dry air, of not
too much strength, It IL quite proba-
Bile that a final sail stretching spin
will be taken otherwise. the yachts
will remain at their moorings all day.

LIGHTNING PLAYS FREAKS.
During Storm at Anniston Bolt Sets House Aflre and Scatters Brick.

Anniston, June 10.-(Special )-During a small thunder storm lightning played sev- eral very queer pranks on Mulberry street near Cooper, which were told about by Jesse Tyson.
 MT. Tyson, with a force of hands, fs all were at work when the storm came up. There was a vivid flash of lightning and immediately following 1t was a deaf ening clap of thunder. Mir. Tyson felt something strike him on the top of the head, causing a sharp sting of pain. Ore of the men on top of the house experience ed the same thing and another man felt similar blow on his feet. as If a rock had been thorwn on It. All three began to investigate the cause of the mysterious blows they had received and in a few momelnts they noticed a house on Cooper street not far away on fire.
 The chimney of the house had been struck by lightning and the force of the shock had hurled pieces of brick to where the men were working. The same bolt of lightning had apparently made a zigzag tour of the house and its trail was plainly marked. The house was struck. twisted and shattered in a dozen pieces There was no one In 1t at the time. which was very fortunate for the lightning appeared to have penetrated every corner of the building. The house was that of negro woman who chanced to be away from home when the lightning called. It was ablaze in one room but Mir Tyson and those who were with him extinguished the fire
