William Brown Receives a
Very Severe Shock.
UNCONSCIOUS FOR HOURS
He is Finally Revived by
Physician.
While Working Under Telephone
Line on the Delaware Pike Mr..
Brown was Struck Down.

William Brown, aged forty-eight,
and married, was struck by light
ming during the storm Monday az
bernoon and for several hours lay
in an unconscious and critical con-
ldltion.
The victim resides on Superior
street but is employed as farm
hand by Harvey W. Zachman OF the
delaware pike. When the heavy rain
storm came up about O'Clock
Monday afternoon, Brown was work.
ling in a field but Immediately start
ed for shelter. dle was walking un-
der the telephone wires along the
road WHEN there was bright flash
Of lightning and the air seemed to
grow heavy with electricity. Brown
fell over in an unconscious stupor.
Mrs. Zachman saw the lightning,
and caught glimpse OF the farm
Inland as he keeled over. The un-
fortunate man was carried to the
house and DR.. Z. i. Brady was sum-
moned. The physician found that
the victim has sustained a severe
shock of electricity and that it had
effected his brain. 1t was several
hours before the physician was able
Ito restore consciousness. Browns
condition was much improved Mon
day night and he was able to be
removed to his home on Superior
street.
The accident was perhaps one or
the most unusual that has occurred
in Marion county for some time.
There was absolutely no thunder
accompanying the flash OF light
ming and there were no marks on
the victim to show where the bolt
of electricity had struck. It was
evident from his condition, how
ever ,lat he was visited by a pow
erful current.

Citizens Frightened by the

Police Unable to Clear the Yards
Of the Marion Maoufaetur-
ing Company.

The yards OF the Marion Manu-
tactunng company have OF late be-
come the headquarters of hoboes and
the residents of Leader street have
become frightened OF the large
numbers which aggregate there from
time TO time. Police aid seems for
the most part TO be unable TO prop
crly dlsperse the numbers and keep
them from the yards.
The residents of the street fear
that concerted action on the part
of tho hOboes may lead to damage
TO personal property and they are
fearful TO leave their homes on
account OF them. One policeman
attempted TO disperse a crowd a
few evenings ago and found him
sedf against heavy proposition. n"
residents hope soon 10 have the
nuisance abated.

HOUSE DEMANDS
FULL EVIDENCE
FROM ROOSEVELT

WASHINGTON. pec. 17-Chairman
Perkins, ~ the House Special Commit
tee appointed to recommend course Of
action relative to the suggestions of the
President in his annual message con-
corning the secret service. to which
members of Congress have taken eNcep-
tion, presented n report of that commit
tee at the beginning OF to-day's session
Of the House.
The report recommended the adoption
~ a resolution calling upon the Presi-
dent to supply the House with the evil
dence upon which he based his state
meut that the members OF the House
we're principally concerned over the fact
that the secret service men had been in
vestigating members themselves.
The House adopted without dissent
ms vote. after very little comment, a
resolution covering the points In ques-
ton Mr.. Cochran, OF New York. sug-
gested that It should he made applica-
Bile to Congre ss as whole and not
merely to the House. but the change
was not made
In the preamble TO the resolution It is
declared that the plain meaning of the
Presidents words is that the ajority
Of the Congressman were in fear OF
being investigated by secret service
men and that Congress as a whole was
actuated by that motive IN enaCtins the
provision In question The text of the
resolution follows:
Resolved, That the President he re-
quested TO transmit TO the House any
evidence upon which he based his state
nents that the chief argument in favor
OF the provision was that the Congress-
men did not themselves wish to be in
vestigated by secret service men, and
also 10 transmit to the House any evil
dence connecting any member of the
House OF the Representatives of the
SiHtieth Congress with corrupt action in
his official capacity and to inform the
House whether H. has instituted pro-
ceedings for the punishment Of any such
individual by the courts or has re
ported any such alleged delinquencies TO
the House Of Representatives.
In reporting the resolution Mr. Per
kins said ii had been recommended
and added that as soon as the President
should send in any Information in his
possession the COMMITTEES would make
another report for the consideration OF
the House.
Mr.. Williams said the committee
would impartially report upon this
seemingly unproVoked and unjustined
attack upon the honesty and reputation
Of the legislative branch OF the Gov

citizenship and had moi produced the
pedigrees of the dogs. Acting OF this
Information. the Board of United States

Mr.. Golfers protest and ordered en-
forcement OF the duty.
Mr.. Collier has also filed a protest
against the assessing of dnty on tour

Gently brought back. He was asked 10
pay duty because he spent 300 for re-
pairs to the machine while abroad when
his chauffeur ran II into stone wall

After fling his protest Mr.. Collier
concluded that President Roosevelt
should know how Americans were be-

According to a railing OF the Treasury
Department, an American car. or ono
that has been taken out of the United
States and repaired abroad. may 10 re-
turned to the United States free of duty,
providing the repairs have not improved
the car above 10 per cent OF its orig
inal value. Mr.. Golfers friends are
smiling over his contest with the col
lector because he was known as
'etand-pattfr' on the tariff, staunch
Republican and friend of President
Roosevelt.
When Golfer handed tho statement
showing the cost of repairs to the Dep
uty Collector that gentleman announced
that duty amounting TO s2,25O would
have to be paid on the machine He
said the repairs amounted TO more than
10 per cent. OF the value of the automo-
bile.
Mr. Collier protested that he had paid
$4,000 for his machine from a firm of
importers in New York, who had paid
duty at that time.
