THINGS UP
Thunder, Lightning, Rain and
Wire Trouble
A SUMMER DEMONSTRATION
1t Was the Sort of an Elk
hibition of the Elements
That Phoenix is Getting
Used to Especially this
Year.
A SUMMER DEMONSTRATION

Phoenix was visited last night by
another of those rain and thunder
storms for which the summer of 1911
has become So justly famous. II did
not compare in severity with several
that have preceded it, either as TO pre-
Cipitation or electrical demonstration
but in point of irritating the towns
people il was as bad as any except
the one big storm early in July.
The storm did not break until after
dark though il had been gathering for
hours and the sky was cloudy before
the sun went down. The territory af-
fectod was Of wide eXtert as in the
early evening every telegraph wire
running out Of Phoenix was out of
commission. except the line to Prescott
There was no communication with
either Fl Paso or Los Angeles. or any
intervening point.
When an effort was made 80 reach
the outside world by way Of Prescott
il was found thar the wires We're down
between Flagstaff and Kingman. The
only other wire out of the country was
the one that doubles back from Pres
colt to the \. & c. junction. thence fol-
lows the a & G. railroad to California,
via Parker. This was available but
was interfered with to such an extent
the service was very poor. The long
distance telephone wires remained in
commission but the ringing was 50 di-
verting that their use was hardly feas-
ible
Later at night the wires were patch
ed up in n wa that permitted the Re
publican's telegraph news report to
get through i'm fairly good shape,
though somewhat delayed.
The Pacific Gas & Electric cos. lines
were jolted by lightning five or six
times and the lights were eXtinguishcd
two or three times. II is supposed
that there was trouble at Roosevelt
also. as during a period of ten or fif-
teen minutes the power kept coming
on and off in a most discOncerting way
II soon became regulated but whether
it was only line Interruptions Ut whetn-
or one generator burned out and an
other took its place. will not BE- known
here until today.

Bozeman Last Week

Rev. I. w. Chase returned Tuesday
forenoon from Bozeman. where he vent
to attend the fall meeting Of the Presby-
terry Of Great Falls. and the annual meet
ing Of the Synod of Montana. While there
he passed the Presbyterial sxam;natioo
and was publicly ordained last Friday
evening. On the return trip Rev. Chase
stopped Of a half day at Great Falls and
called on Mayor J. w. Spser. . former
fellow-townsman IN Hanover. III. Mr..
Chase gives few impressions Of his jour
ney in the following terms.
The meetings at Bozehnan were held in
the First Presbyterian church. which was
built Just last year. and is said to be one
Of the most modern edifices of the kind in
our state. II is truly one Of great archi-
tectural fitness and convenience. Besides
the Presbyterial and Synodical meetings.
Sabbath School Institute was in session
at the same time. so there was a goodly
gathering of ministers. minister's wives,
and other church and Sabbath school work
ers. Much credit Is due the people of
Bozeman for the willing and royal enter
tainment accorded their visitors.

land in the state. being in the famous Gal
latin Valley region. where they have been

has been running from rs to ITO bushels
per acre. and other grains have yielded in
like proportion. When viewed from the
top Of the main building Of the State Agri-
cultural College at Bozeman. the sight is
one Of great wonder and beauty. especially
to eyes unaccustomed to such scenes. And
