DAMAGE BY LIGHTNING.
Several Reports of Accidents During
-: Electrical Storm. ~

Thursday afternoon during the
Thunderstorm lightning struck the
towner of the main. building of the
o. C. l., known as Asheley Hal. and
tore it asunder for considerable
length. The loss financially is very
slight, but it frightened the inmates
for a while. The building is vacant
during the summer except for Prof.
Peterson and his family, but there
were also some ladies singing in the
hall and they were not aware OF
the building being struck until the
glass began to fall.
According to report two ladies
when returning from the funeral of
Judge Dantzler last Tuesday after
noon took refuge from the storm in
a negro's house. 1t is said that the
lightning struck near them and both
were stunned. Another lady it was
said was stunned in her home-the
lightning coming down the chimney.
Neither of these last reports were
cofirmed.
1t was also stated that several
negro houses on Sunnyside was
struck, but no serious damage be-
ing done. In one instance, however,
oe of the inmates had his shoes torn
from his his feet.

Said to Be Exaggerated.

The Orangeburg correspondent of

timated, and in some instances eXag-
gerated into unheard of quantity
the report fro Cope, which is very
near this city, placing it at eight in
ches-the record of Prof Berg has
been appealed to and shows that
just two inches fell here Of course,
it may have been heavier at Cope
but if the correspondent there will
figure a little he will see that with
eight inches of rain in so short a
time he and all the rest Of US would
have been swept into the Edisto Riv-
er, hard by.

Downfall Tuesday.

The Cope correspondent of The

from 8 to $50 o'clock. The cleo

dent, seems to have been more Sc
we're here two or three miles, as
lightning struck the barn Of John
Nance, on Mr.. ]. C. Hayden's place,
and also the large barn of Mrs. NJ.
E. Valentine, tearing off board or
two. Mrs. Valentine had stables on
both sides of the barn with mules ir
them, but they escaped unhurt. .

most "a complete loss.
Your correspondent had Just emp
tied a 6o-pound lard tub of swill to
his hogs and set some on box back
of the kitchen. An hour and a half
after the rain started he measured
six and a half inches of rain water

the top, but it give a good idea of
the amount of rain that fell. Sonis
think eight or more inches fell, BAT
this much is certainly known, th1L
a damage of thousands of d1liars
has been done to the count,.
Lightning also struck the dinirg

Orangeburg motorists will in all
probability race down to Charleston
in automobiles for the good roads
convention to be held at the Isle of
Palms in July about 25 cars strong.
Arrangements are being perfected

pledging themselves to make the trip.
An enthusiastic meeting is to be
held in this city today by the Or
angeburg Automobile club, to whicn
meeting all good roads advocates are
invited. At this meeting arrange
ments for the Charleston trip will be
concluded.
Orangeburg should be strongly
represented at this convention in
Charleston to fight the effort to- have
the official route from Charleston to
Columbia via the State road instead
via Orangeburg. At the good goods
convention, held in this city last fall.
Columbia voted unanimously for the
route to pass through Orangeburg;
now there comes news that Colum-
bia is going to oppose Orangeburg

HELP5 RURAL SCHOOLS
REPRESENTATIVES, BOWMAN HAS
GOOD BILL PASSED.
Several Schools in This County Have
Received Aid From the State
Erect Better Buildings.

Last year while the Legislature
was in session Mr.. John S. Bowman,
one of Orangeburg's best, introduc-
ed bill to aid the construction OF
better school buildings in the var
ious Counties of the state. 1t ap-
propriated $4,000 of the money de-
rived from the Dispensary Winding
Up Commission and devoted it to
school building purposes.
The manner in which it was to be
distributed was that whenever the
patrons or trustees of school had
raised certain amount for a schooi
building the state would give them
$50 for every s100 SO raised to
enable them to build better build
ing.
1t should be noticed that this bill
was intended to held the buildings.
no one school could receive more
than three hundred dollars, nor
more than one school receive aid in
the same district each year. If two
schools consolidated bonus of $50
was given, and the superintendent
of Education was directed to give
preference to the schools which con-
selidated.
There are several schools in this
county that have already taken ad-
vantage of this, and are already con-
structing buildings. The Two Mile
Swamp School Building, which was
demolished by storm recently, has
taken advantage Of the offer and are
going to erect a $1,000 building,
$500 of which they will receive from
the state. The Cross Roads school
and the Rickenbaker school have
united and are building a school at
Eersners for which they will re-
ceive the assistance of the state to
the amount of $3.50, the additional
$50 being allowed on account Of
the consolidation.
In addition to these two there are
Eve others about to take advantage
OF this liberality of the state, made
POSSIBLE by Mr.. Bowman's bilk
Rowesville has one school, but need
ing another, is going to build on
the corner Of the lot another build
ing, and will receive $500 towards
it. The Houser school, Mccormick
school. Fridayviile School, and the
Oak Ridge School are all consider
ing building better school houses.
AS will be- observed this bill will
bring between $500 and $4,000 to
Orangeburg County this year alone,
and thanks are due to Representa-
tive Bowman.
