Over One Inch of Precipitation in
Storm of Friday.

most terrific rain. hail and electrical
storms of the summer descended up
on this city and vicinity yesterday. The
rain fell in sheets for over an hour and
the total rainfall was 1.24 inches re-
markable amount considering the
briefness of the STORM. AT the first of
the storm the hail was severe but did
not continue long enough to do any
damage. The concrete work on the new
paving on North Main was slightly
damaged by the washing of the great
amount of water which rushes down
toward Lime creek at that point.
lightning struck the residence of
Mrs. Ann Burns at S04 Kearney street.
at $50 this morning, and her son.
John l.. Burns, who was occupying an
up stairs room narrowly escaped death
from the terrific bolt. His mothers
room adjacent to his was not in the
least disturbed but his was completely
wrecked.
Mr. Burns was rendered unconscious
by the shock but soon revived to find
the wall of his room above the head of
his bed in flames. The flames had
gained but little Roadway and were
quickly eNtinguished.

harm, creates no disturbances inward
ly, produces no wrinkles and is put
to practically no expense. for an effec-

This harmlessness combined with the

in strict accordance with the famous
prescription: Y ounce Marmola, "
