Big Electrical Storms.
Wednesday night, after three days
of intense heat, severe electrical storms
swept over Orleans county and did
much damage. Reports from various
towns show that considerable stock was
killed by lightning, telephone systems
and electric light systems suffered some
loss, and several buildings were de-
stroyed by fire. No large fires are re-
ported however. During the days pre-
vious to the storms the mercury regis
tered as high as go in the shade.
Bad Fire at Newport.
About II 80 o'clock Friday morning
an alarm of fire from Box %, Newport
called the fire company to the boat
houses of C. r. Moore at the foot Of
Main street, Newport. The new boat
house built in 1907 by Mr. Moore was
entirely consumed together with eight
power boats. The unfortunate boat
owners are as follows: Fred ]. Robins
Joseph Boles, Cy Sherbourne, S. D..
Parker, c. R. Moore, Chas. Shepard,
Geo. Gilchrist and Percy Lawson.
| When discovered the fire had gained
such headway that little could be done
to save anything and the building,
which was of light construction, burned
fat in 80 minutes. The boat belonging
to Fred Robins was towed out, all on
long bridge, endangering that structure
but was finally turned to the West Der
by shore. The Sherbourne boat was a
new one, of the speed variety and the
engine had not been installed. The
damage on boat house and contents is
placed at $4,000 or more, the boats being
valued at from S175 to $500 each
There was very little insurance. The
fire probably Originated from an over.
heated engine which set fire to gaso
lene, as an explosion was heard about
: the time the fire was discovered. Mr.
Moore will probably rebuild and mos1
of the boats will be replaced, but it i.
sad blow to summer sports at present

boSCDdA A>OtSSs
Mr.. and Mrs. Jack Bishop and STAN
ley Berry are camping at Willoughby
and getting good ball practice.
Fred L. Nutting, formerly an out
here working out for position in the
outfeld.
A large curtain is being placed on
the west side of the grand stand to
protect the spectators from the after
noon sun.
Clyde Heath and F. H. Harrison will
be on the team at Saturdays game
and the team will be in shape to play
good ball. Come out and show US that
you can support such team.
There will be an interesting game
Of ball between Barton and some
strong team at Athletic Park Saturday.
We appreciate the liberal patronage
of our people and if they will show IN
the future the same enthusiasm as in
the past, we can promise them good
ball and games worth their patronage.
A special lot of 1000 tickets is being
gotten out at the Monitor Office for
day and Friday, June Is and 26. Re-
member these two games will be two
of the fastest games played this season
and we want every person IN the vii
lage and town to come out and help US
win by their loyal support. also that
your attendance at such games as these
gives our town position on the map
of Vermont that you can't get in other
ways.
The ball game Saturday at Athletic
Park with Irasburg proved to be a
much more serious game than had been
anticipated. Irasburg certainly de-
serves our admiration and congratula-
tions for the class of ball and the team
that they put on the field Saturday.
Lyon, who pitched for Irasburg, was
certainly cool proposition and had our
best hitters guessing from the start,
and had it not been for one bad error
Irasburg would have won the game.
Barton played ball at:times, but in crit
ical positions showed ragged fielding
and lacked the ability to hit. Bishop
however was active and without the
error should have held the visitors
down, as he allowed only FIVE scattered
hits. Our enthusiasts however must
remember that this is the first time oul
team has been together on the field ano
that while we have splendid lot o1
ball players they have not had the
least opportunity for team work. Thi!
week commencing to-day at A :15 the
boys will get in solid team practice
and we will have every man on the
field next Saturday who is eligible tx
play and will show you different ball
Below is tabulated score:

 My friend asked the name of the man and was told that it was Harry Loff. Then he said in loud voice:

Arizona leads the world in copper production and the Warren district leads in Arizona. It Is likely that more copper will be produced from the Warren district during the year 1908 than ever before. While in Ari zona are to be found many district where copper is mined at good profit the developed properties in the War ren district are in position to turn out more ere than all the other cop per properties in the territory. Great is Arizona! as copper producer, be- cause of the magnitude of the indus try in the Warren district.

LAWSON RETURNS TO THE MiRE.

The press of the country is just now again discussion Tom Lawson. He has tired of the work of exposing the system" The following from the Los Angeles Times is sample of a great many columns now being writ ten about Mir. Lawson. It is worth repeating here and here it is:
 What a noise Thomas w. Lawson has made in the world more than three full years. What great reforms and generally beneficial results he promised the country through his crusade,. With what praying of trumpets he rushed to the fray!.
 We'll, it is "all off" Lawson, with more praying trumpets and bas- soons, says so himself. It was all a false alarm. Lawson says it was. It was all sound fury, signifying noth- ing" This also Lawson says.
 He came upon the scene veritable Don Quixote, mounted on crow-bait, the pen of a ready writer in hand as lance, and he drew after him a croFd much like him in intelligence to sancho Panza, and all riding hob bies that much resembled old Sancho's mount.
 We'll. the redoubtabie Tom leaves the scene and says his efforts have been more fruitless than were those of the ancient Don, that the rabble who were at his heels have sancho skinned from crown of head to soles of feet. and To. of Tom. his followers and their hobbies you can not for your life say which is the Don, which the servitor and which the hurro The asinine so predominates that the aggregation looks like a hand of donkeys toiling over a desert seeking a spring which is only a mirage.
 Lawson came before, us with the sensational announcement that he was one of the worst grafters who ever played both ends of an unfair game against the middle. He had shorn more lambs" than any other gambler who ever played with loaded dice or stacked cards. He knew the system" to every dot over the Is, rot to speak of crosses on the t's. There was not a trick in the thieving gams that he had not got down pat by practice His wealth was "preda- tory his fortune was swollen" with fraud. and his money all tainted" to an undesirable of undesirables," a chief robber among robbers, thief crying "stop thief" to crack his lungs.
 Tom had repented. He had been thrown down" on some deal or other, and like all robbers who had. not got all the plunder he claimed as his share, he had come out to expose the game and the gang who played He would spend his "ili-gntten gains to show up the system" and make its operations so well understood that it would work no more. With hammer aas tongs, 0r rather i pen and pencil. Lawson has been rap ping away-scratching away-at the system" for a year. He has voided foul breath until we all had to hold our noses and run for fresh air. He has filled volumes with words, burn ing words, come hot from Tartarus; " and now, To! Tom is played out" He has not a squeak left in his lungs,
