Severe Electric Storm.

This section was visited by severe
electric storm shortly before, midnight
Saturday night, accompanied by ter
rife downpour of rain that quickly filled
the water courses, overlooking the sew
ers and doing considerable damage to
fields. Lightning discharges were fast
and furious for time and reports from
losses have been coming in from all
sections in the track of the storm. The
steeple of ST. Johns Lutheran church
was struck and slightly splintered,
while the doors at the entrance give
evidence of the passage of the current.
The gasoline tank at the Heddles lum-
Der yard was also struck, the cover
thrown off, but the contents singularly
enough were not set on fire.
Several barns and buildings in the
town of Porter were struck by light
ming. On Ed Ford's farm the barn was
struck and entirely destroyed, together
with the grain and hay, the horses were
saved and the stock was also rescued.
At Will Tolles' farm the barn was
struck, but the heavy rain eXtinguished
the flames without much damage to the
building. On the farm of w. F. Gard
ner 18 shoats were killed.
The storm broke at Evansville at
about o'clock when the stores were
filled with shoppers and the stores were
kept open to accommodate their GUS
toners who sought shelter from the
fury of the storm for three hours. The
new Catholic church was struck by
lightning but was not damaged How.
ever, persons living in the immediate
vicinity suffered from the effects of the
shock, and Mrs. William Lee, who was
outside the door when the flash came,
was much affected, but recovered suf-
ficiently to get back into the house.
Her son, Ellsworth Lee, who was sleep
ing IN an upper room, was rendered I'M
conscious for over an hour.
The Catfish river is said to have risen
five feet In as many hours following
the cloudburst. At Fulton, where re-
pairs were being made on the dam of
the GAINESVILLE Electric Co., the tempo
rary Golfer dam was carried out and
lumber washed away, entailing quite a
serious loss of some of the permanent
work already accomplished.
The storm of Saturday night was
very nearly duplicated in severity on
Wednesday evening, when a tremen-
dous downpour came for half an hour.
The electric flashes were almost inces-
SAINT and lightning struck in several
places about town. The German church
was again an object of attack, but a
few shingles only were ripped from
the roof. The new home of Claude
Burdick was struck and slightly dam
aged.

Sixty Years Superintendent.

Sixty years of continuous service as
superintendent of the Congregational
Sunday school at Fulton is the anniver-
sary that D. F. Sayre celebrated SIM
day and it was, incidentally, the Goth
anniversary of the school itself. Mr.
Sayre is Lightweight years old, but en-
joys the best of health, with good eye
sight, hearing and a marvellous memo
ry. He is a graduate of New York
University and Columbia Law school,
but after practicing a short time in
Patterson, N. j., he came west and
settled at Fulton, where he now lives,
with his youngest son, James E. Sayre.
An older son, Frank Sayre, also lives
nearby, in addition to a number of
nephews and nieces. The Sayre farm,
which lies on both sides of the Yahara,
is one of the model farms in that sec
ton of the county. A dam has been
placed across the river at that point
supplied with an under-shot wheel that
furnishes enough power to light two
houses with electricity, draw water for
household purposes, irrigate the gar
den, churn and run feed-cutters.

Diplomas Given Twenty-Three.

Both afternoon and evening on last
Thursday Royal hall was filled with
relatives and friends of the graduating

was rendered in style creditable to
the pupil and the pride of both parent

ly were the unusual excellence of the
violin sele, tons by Miss Nellie Bent
ley, an original piano composition by
Miss Evaline Post and the original

in the evening, Principal Roethe. in a
short talk gave some good advice to

Remedy for Hoarseness.

A simple remedy for hoarseness and
an irritating ticking" in the throat
consists of making gargle of an egg
beaten to a froth and adding half a
glass of warm, sweetened water. Drink
this every little while, rather than all
at once, as most men drink all liquids.
