STORM AGAIN
HITS HARD

CONTINUED From First Page)
In the upper end of the Ninth ward
the electrical systems of both phone
companies and the lighting company
were disrupted and numerous wires
went down. This was repaired, how
ever, the companies having a gang Of
men at work before the storm ceased.
Trolley Schedules Upset
While trolley schedules we're de-
ranged. the Peoples Railway suffered
the most, it requiring several hours
for their schedules to be corrected
and it was stated that yesterdays
storm caused them more trouble then
any like storm for seven or eight
years.
Numerous other places we're struck
by lightning or damaged by wind.
Just over the line in Pennsylvania
the storm was exceptionally severe.
Several trees were uprooted and some
buildings were damaged.
At the offices of the Sun Oil Com
pany, Marcus Hook, the telephone sys-
tenn was completely DISABLED by the
lightning and at a late hour it had
not been put into operation.
A large oil tank on the property of
the Texts Oil Company was struck by
the lightning, but owing to the tank
being empty at the time no damage
was done. A stable in the rear of the
store of John ]. Ryan, at No. 1919
West Third street, was also struck
and set afire but the blaze was extin-
guished by the steady downpour Of
rain
June seems to hold the record for
electric storms more having occurred
this month than for several years
past in the same month. From all
prospects the rain Is over and the
weather man predicts fair and cooler
weather for the next few days
Wheat shocks throughout the
county we're blown down.
Telephone poles between here and
Newport were blown down in several
places.
Lightning struck the end Of James
Dickinson's big stable on the Town
send race track, but did little damage.

SAVING The
COUNTY ROADS
$500 Mile appropriation viii
Keep Highways in Good
Condition

Farmers. automobilists and every
one who use the good roads of New
Castle county, are pleased over the
Levy Court creating a special fund for
the care OF the roads With an ap-
preparation of $500 a mile for the
work, County Engineer Wilson will
be able to keep the roads in order. AS
soon as the road begins to break then
the supervisor and special road work
ers will make repairs. the idea being
to use a hand rammer or a roller. and
make the repairs in such manner
that the surface Of the road will be
maintained. This repair gang will
be expected to keep the water courses
open, so that when a storm comes
the water will gradually flow off and
no gullies be cut in the roads.
The Levy Court will shortly take up
the question of supervisors and repcir
gangs.
County officials say the good roads
must be maintained or in a few years
they will have 10 be rebuilt
