Barn Burned.

Barn Burned.
During a thunder storm that passed
over this section last Saturday evening
between six and seven o'clock lightning
struck the barn on farm belonging to
Samuel S. Stouffer, several miles east OF
Slepherdstown, in Washington county,
and entirely destroyed it with most OF Its
contents. Charles Ebersole, who lives
on the farm, and another man and boy
were in the barn when il was struck, and
all were stunned for moment. The Doll
hurled shingles and boards in every d.
rection and set fire to the hay and straw
in the barn, the flames spreading with
great rapidity. The men succeeded IN
getting six horses and colts from the
burning structure, but could not save any
of the harness or machinery. Besides
the implements, some 800 bushels OF
wheat in the sheaf, about Is tons OF hay,
a quantity of clover seed and a lot OF corn
in crib nearby all went up in smoke.
The barn was 40 by go feet in size, and
was practically new, having been built
two years ago on the site Of barn that
was destroyed by fire. Mr.. Stouffer
places his loss at about 5000, with in
surance of 5000. The heavy rain that
accompanied the storm was all that saved
the dwelIing-house and other buildings
from destruction.
