ROOF WAS DEMOLISHED

Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas Foley, living
at 515 Carroll streets, had a narrow
escape from death Saturday afternoon
about 4:30 o'clock when their home
was struck by lightning during the
heavy storm that did considerable
damage during the short time it

capped being totally wrecked, but as it
was it did not escape being badly de-
molished about the roof, and the inter-
ior ceilings.
The lightning struck the east cor.
ner, although Mr.. Foley asserts that
the lightning was not concentrated at
any one point but swept over quite
wide area of the roof However, the
point where the most damage was
done wal at the east corner, the light
ming tealing big hole herein addition

the plaster to fall in the room below.
About half Of the ceiling in this cor

west end of the house, considerable
damage resulted and the plaster on
the ceiling in the small room below at
this part OF the house did not escape

supporting the roof We're torn lose to
such an extent that the house is not
free from danger at the present time.
The east room where most OF the
damage was done is occupied by
David r. Foley, son OF the well
known old couple, but he was not in
the house at the time. Had he been
present he might have been in such a
position as to be injured.

MERLIN TO BE A RAILROAD
CENTER.

Several years ago dreamer, who
was wise beyond his time, drew a
map OF the Merlin district, and on
the map placed series Of dots which
he labeled Proposed Railroad" I"
These dots commenced at the head
of Jump-Off-Joe creek, in that i'm
mense body Of timber that is now
being exploited by the Three Pines
Timber Company, passed by the Mt.
Pitt, the Oro Fino, the Mountain
Treasure, the Oak, the Baby, the
Gopher and the Lucky Queen quartz
mines and the Cook & Howland, the
Sexton and the Swatzika placers,
through severad dairy farms and or
chards, and came into Merlin. From
Merlin It passed on down Rogue Riv-
er, through other farms and or
chards, and penetrated the Galice
mining district, stopping at the point
where the Almeda smelter now
stands. closely surrounded by that
vast array Of gold, copper and placer
properties.
The dreamer has gone away, but
the map remains, and It no longer
causes a sneering smile TO come upon
the face OF all who look upon tt
for verify. II is soon to be a reality.
Where Is there another district with
so much tonnage already at hand,
with such vast undeveloped resources
awaiting only a little cheaper trans
portation to spring into action, into
which railroad has not already
been built7 Here Is the business al
ready at hand, here ls unlimited wa

There is sufficient timber at the
head OF Jump-off-Joe to keep large

farmer. the fruit raiser, the stock
man and the miner, and every day

when the timber was finally cut on
