LIGHTNING BOLT DAMAGES
PROPERTY NEAR BRENFORD
DAVID WILLIAMS ACOLORED MAN ON S
GILBERT WILD'S FARM KNOCKED DOWN
Two Valuable HOIsteln Calves Killed and Stable
endangered By Lighinlngs Queer Freak
Stable Fired With $500 Loss

during a severe electric storm which
passed over this vicinity Friday morn
ing at 4.3O O'Clock, bolt of lightning
descended on the S. Gilbert Wilds
farm tenanted by E. H. Donovan. near
Brenford, killing two valuable Hol-
stem calves, rendering unconscious
David Williams, colored man. He
was prostrated for a hall an hour. It
appears he had gone to the COW stable
to do his early morning milking when
the accident happened. That other
calves were not killed and the stable
set on tire, seems miraculous. Besides
the calves, there were fifteen fine Hol-
stein cows in the stable. The bolt of
lightning descended and struck the
stable and tore hole in the roof. The
electric fluid followed the track of the
nay tork't to the other end of the build
ing and thence down to the ground.
AT an opening at this end of the build.
ing were four calves. Two of these
were killed outright while the other
two with them escaped. Other cattle
were stunned by the shock. At the
time of the binding flash and awful
report, Mr.. Donovan was in the kitchen
OF his home a short distance awav
where he had just gotten In from the
field and was preparing to assist Will
liams in milking the COWS. Two min
utes later and he would have been with
Williams. AS it was he was Obliged TO
take charge of the almost lifeless form
of his colOred hand and see that he got
every medical attention. The latter
regained consciousness in about a half
an hour, but strange to say there was
not mark on his body, neither was
there a mark on the two calves that
were killed. The damage to the build
ing was slight.
There were two storms, one which
passed over shortly after midnight and
the other about four o'clock in the
morning. Each brought with it vivid
flashes of lightning and heavy down
pours of rain. A bolt struck the barn
OF Harry M. Deakyne, three miles from
Townsend, setting it on fire with a
total loss on property and contents of
$500. The stock at the time was in
pasture field and thus escaped, Sew
eral wagons and lot of harness was
destroyed. Another bolt struck on the
farm of William Il. Money in the same
vicinity and tore a cultiyator beyond
recognition.

DEEPER CHANNEL AND NEW
WHEEL REDUCES BRADY TIME
RECENT IMPROVEMENT IN SMYRNA RIVER
AND TO STEAMER q. F. BRADY HELPS
Oue Hour Cut Off OF Brady's Time and Easy
Navigation Makes it Popular Route For
Passenger Traffic These Summer Days

The government dredging machine
"Ricket" which started two weeks ago
to carry out the provisions of the $4,000
maintenance of way appropriation
granted to Smyrna River by act of
Congress, is about finishing it's work.
The improvement ALREADY derived is
having its effect upon navigation which
has been much facilitated. Especially
has this been so in the course from
Smyrna Landing to Prices wharf. In
stead Of heavy mud deposits which
materially impeded the progress of
Steamer G. F. Brady, there is now an
open channel 80 feet wide which per
mlts OF easy Iunni ng This, with the
fact of new wheel being put on
Steamer G. F. Brady, has reduced the
schedule time between Smyrna and
Philadelphia one hour, or about six
hours for the trip. This should be
welcome news to summer passengers
who enjoy this route for an outing to
and from Delaware to PHILADELPHIA.
The Brady was never in better condi.
tlon to accommodate the passenger traffic
than now. With better speed. com
Portable surroundings, everything neat
and clean, passengers can enjoy fine
river ride free from dust and heat at
comparatively little expense. There
does not seem to be any heavy fruit
shipments in sight and no DELAYS NAV
be feared from this condition which
has oftimes been more or less an an
noyance to passengers. These i'm
provements made by Manager A. p.
Jardine and the Smyrna Transporta-
ton u Manufacturing Co., and the
United States Government, all tend TO
make our home steamboat line more
valuable for passenger and freight SER
vice. No town on the PENN sula has
more reliable steamboat service, and
the encouragement and support the
people of Smyrna and vicinity are Civ
ing 1t is fast paving the way for better
things in the future when Manager
Jardine hopes to have more canals
shortening the route, a ietty at mouth
OF river and regular schedule leaving
time without respect to tides.

many years to come for it was full of
food for thought from beginning to
