LIGHTNING STRIKES.
Bolt Sets Fire to Residence Of David
Adams and Building Il pestroyed.

During the electric storm Of Monday
night bolt of lightning struck the res
idence Of David Adams, who lives in
Clement township, just west Of the
city, and the building was burned to
the ground.
The lightning struck the chimney and
went down setting fire between the
joists. The shock awakenedthe family
and they were soon fighting the fire.
but it seemed to be started in several
places and the flames soon were beyond
control. So rapidly did it gain way
that only part Of the furniture on the
lower floor could be removed. The
lightning struck at two o'clock in the
morning and in two hours the building
was q mass Of smoke and cinders.
The building was new and cost about
5000. On building and furniture there
was insurance to the amount of s., 900.
Mr.. Adams feels the loss badly at this
time. He has large family, and it
was getting near time when four of his
daughters would be home for the sum-
mer from teaching school.

Fine Demonstration.

The fine demonstration of car con-
struction, given at Fargo last week by
the E. F. people, was quite a revela-
tion to Geo. A. Tuthill, local agent of
the company.
Before the banquet, all the dealers of
the EMF. and Flanders cars were
given demonstration in the new $500
Flanders Fore Door Car.
Immediately after the banquet, a de-
scriptive lecture, accompanied by NOV
ing pictures, was given to the dealers
and the public. by F. NJ. Smith. special
factory representative, who said:
This method of showing the EMF
Company's eighteen hundred dealers
our new model Flanders car, and the
moving pictures of our factory opera
tions, is characteristic of Walter E.
Flanders, the man who has made the
EMF Company what it is. Mr..
Flanders gives a distinctive human
touch to everything he does. He re-
CARDS the company's dealers as the
back bone of the organization, and his
partners In business. He was the first
automobile manufacturer to establish
profit participation in his factory, and
today large part of the twelve thous-
and men working in the shop of the
EMF Company at Detroit, participate
in the profits of the company through
bonus system, which is based entirely
on merit. 1t is source of great re-
gret to me that Mr.. Flanders could not
have been with us, and also Geo. E.
Keller, general sales manager, as I
would like to have each one our dealers
meet them personally. The moving
pictures haye proven source of great
educational benefit to the LOO or more
dealers we have already shown them
to, and there is no question in my mind
but that the ''show-me' method is by
far the best.''
Within short time, the pictures
viewed at the banquet will be shown
for the benefit of our people here, as it
is the intention of EMF and Flanders
factories to have q great number of
films made, which will be sent out to
every dealer they have, and he, in turn,
will exhibit them, free of charge, to
the residents of his city.
