THOMAS HALPINE'S BARNS BURNED.
 Last week Wednesday evening at about 7.30 in the hard shower the three barns and large stock shed stand ing just north of the house in square belonging to Thomas Halpine of Whis. confer hill, were struck by lightning with nearly all it's contents. The lightning struck near a large mow ot hay and in a minute the whole barn was in blaze. MT Halpine succeeded in getting out his horse, wagons and most of his farm machinery. He lost, beside the building, ,labout 10 tons of hay, two tons of straw, two tons of corn stalks, farm wagon, tread power and cutter, all his harnesses and lot of small farming tools. He estimates his loss at about S60O0 and his insurance was about s35oO: He will probably re- build at once. The neighbors turned out and with their help the house was kept from burning. A little incident occurred which shows how excited some people get at such a time. A young lady, who was at the fire, ran into the house and came out bringing bureau scarf in her hand, when there were things ten times it's value all around her. MT and Mrs Halpine feel grateful to their neighbOrs for their assistance at the fire.
