IT WAS A MONSTER.

Mill Greek is fairly well stocked with
fish, there having been planted here at
different times black bass and rainbow
trout. Besides these species, grass
pike, rock bass and mullet abound.
Our citizens take considerable delight
during the summer months in spend
ing hours with hook and line trying TO
secure some of the finny tribe. Some
pretty good catches have been made,
among which would be found fish
weighing all the way from | pound to
10, but the task of catching the largest
and heaviest fish ever pulled out of
Mill Creek was up to Isaac Menerey.
On Tuesday i'm company with W. n.
McKenna, Isaac east his line, bated
with a minnow, and to his surprise
landed grass pike which tipped the
scales at l6 pounds and 2 ounces. 1t
was monster and had been seen at
times by several of our local nimrods,
but never could be caught. We are
informed that when this whale of a
fish was safe on dry land, Isaac de
clared that. he was as tired over land
ing it as though he had worked all
day in the hay field.

DESTRUCTIVE STORM.
Many Barns Burned Together With Con
tents. Stock Killed by Lightning
Crops Destroyed by Hall and Wind.

The most destructive storm that has
visited this section of the state in a
number of years passed through parts
of 81. Clair and Sanilac coHnties on
Friday of last week.
Rain, wind and hail laid waste mary
thousand dollars worth of growing
crops that promised to be very abun-
dant. In many places the farmers are
turning their stock into the fields to
pick up the grain.
Lightning struck the barns of Ter
rance Monaghan in Speaker township,
burning both TO the ground with the
contents. The barns were large ones
36X70 and 30XJ0. These contained a
fine span of horses, about 80 tons of
hay. 10 acres of wheat, | wagon and
hay rack, harness, hay tools, ETC. Loss
$1,000. Insured i'll the Sanilac Grang-
ers' Mutual for $500.
William j. O'Melia. who resides on
the old homestead, lost one barn 5OX36
and another 50X24 containing about %
tons of hay, all of his farming imple
ments, binder, mower, grain drill, etc.
Other buildings burned were hen
house, pig pen and corn crib. His loss
will foot up about 81 800. Insured for
Josiah +. Kings barn 5lN34 and
leantO 52x20, together with a hen house
l2X1i were consumed by the fiery tiend:
In the buildings were 80 tons of hay,
between 30 and 30 bushels of old
wheat, 3 loads of wheat in sheaf, be-
sides barley and oats two wagons, cut
ting box, scales, tanning mill, horse
rake, sleighs, and a calf, which were
burned. Loss $500 Insured in the
1t. Clair Changers Mutual for 800 Oh
bam and sheds, and 500 on contents.
Mr.. King was in Port Huron at the
time.
\ cow belonging to Nell Kerr was
killed by lightning.
Alex. loves baIn was struck by
lightning but only slightly damaged,
Mrs. w. ii. Phelps also suffered the
loss of barn 24x50, containing about
40 tons of hay. The damage done here
Swas about $1,000, with $500 insurance
In the German Mutual Co.
This Storm coming at the time of
year it did, when everything seemed
most prosperous, is severe blow to
those who suffered any loss. After
working all fall, the spring and part OF
the summer, sowing, caring for and
harvesting the grain apd attending to
haying, ii comes doubly hard. 1t
makes one feel most discouraged to see
the fruits of a whole years labor all
disappear i'm moments time.
