STORM WAS SEVERE ONE

The electrical storm Friday after
noon, especially in the west part OF the
town, was one OF the seyerest known
here in years. 1t came from the north
and is line was from half to a mile In
width. At the place of Fritz Horst
the hail stones that accompanied
the storm were many OF them big as
butternut. Window glass was broken,
other damage was dope and he estim-
ates that his loss will be fully 5000.
People who we're there during the
storm say that they never saw such
havoc from such a cause.
All of the roads in the line of the
storm were badly washed and it will
take some time and expense to repair
them.
ON the former Ogden place now oc.
cupied by j. =. Armstrong, the storm
was unusually severe. Mr. Armstrong
told Banner reporter that he never
saw snch large hail stones as came
rushing down the hill in the torrent of
rain. The family went out with pals
and picked up enough so that they
went to work and made freezer full
OF ice cream. The family was not able
to eat it all and it was left in the cellar
of the house and the hailstones had
not fully dissolved this morning when
he and his wife left home to come To
the village. In other places the storm
was reported fully as sevsre and other
damage done
During the storm the lightning
struck small pine tree at the Golden
Glow ochre mine of Harry T Cush.
man on Hathaway hill. 1t struck with
such force that portion OF the tree
was thrown quite distance, but no
damage was done by it. Four men who
were working not far from itwere stun
ned by the force of the shock. Mr.
Cushman was on his way to the mill,
but stopped and took refuge in a house
on the road until after the storm sub
sided
Rollin j. Taylor says that at his
place he could have shoveled up ten
bushels of hailstones in the yard.
