STRUCK BY LIGHTNING.
Sch. Pendleton Satisfaction Loses the
Wooden Ball on the Mizzen Truck.

Wooden Ball on the Mizzen Truck.
Reports of vessels being struck bv
lightning on the Atlantic seaboayd are
of very rare occurrence, but such was
the case of the Belfast three-masted
schooner Pendleton Satisfaction, Capt.
W. q. Kneeland, which arrived at Port
land May 10Th from Virgins, S. c., with
a large cargo of North Carolina kiln
dried lumber.
1t IS not very often that an electrical
storm is of long duration, but the par
tlcular storm through which the Pendle-
ton Satisfaction passed continued for SO
hours, during which time the rain fell in
torrents, with vivid lightning and ex-
tremely heavy thunder. Throughout the
electrical storm the wind was blowing
fresh from the southeast, which kicked
up rough and choppy sea, and this
added to the unpleasantness of the situa-
ton.
During the heights of the storm an un-
usually sharp bolt struck the mizzen top
mast of the vessel, carrying away the
wooden ball on top of the truck, after
which it passed down through the truck
and splintered the topmast head for a
distance of about two feet, but other
than that the schooner received no dam
age.
One of the sailors who was at work on
top OF the deckload handling line re-
ceived shock from the bolt as it passed
down from aloft, and he felt the effects
of it for fully five hours after it struck
the topmast.
The Pendeton Satisfaction sailed from
Virgins, S. c., on the 9th of this month
and passed out over the St. Helena bar
on the 18th, and it was on the following
day that the vessel ran into the big cleo
trical storm. The vessel was at that
time between Cape Roman and Frying
Pan shoal, and owing to the direction of
the wind it was very difficult FOR Capt.
Kneeland to keep his vessel off shore,
but he succeeded in working her off into
deep water for a distance of about so
miles outside of the treacherous sandbars
and reefs which lie in the vicinity of
Cape Hatteras and the Diamond shoals,
two of the most dangerous places on the
Atlantic seaboard and dreaded by all
mariners who are obliged to pass them
on their trips up and down the coast.
1t will probably seem strange to the
general public that the name Pendleton
Satisfaction was chosen for this schoon
err, but that was not her original name.
She was formerly the Myra B. Weaver,
and it will be recalled that during heavy
gale of wind several years ago the vessel
was shipwrecked on the treacherous
sandbars off Chatham, Mass, and Capt.
Weaver together with his crew were lost.
After time the vessel was finally float
ed and Pendleton Bros, who purchased
her, gave her the present name after
considerable litigation and trouble, and
she was thoroughly repaired and reftted
and placed in the general coasting trade,
having been very successful since she
was given new lease Of life, and is good
for many years service in the coastwise
trade. Portland Press.

COURT RULING FAVORS
AUTOMOBILISTS
Water Bar Decision in Pennsylvania
Likely to Lead to- Other Actions
Test Gases Are PrOpOsed.

Another Supreme Court, this time
in the Keystone state, has decided
that townships, municipalities, coun-
ties or states maintaining water bars
in public highways are responsible
for damages to automobilists or
their cars, caused by contact with
these unnecessary distractions.
This is a sweeping victory for
motorists, as it is believed there Is
not the slightest doubt about other
states as well as United States courts
sustaining the Pennsylvania decision.
1t is in direct line with the opinion
of the Corporation Counsel of the
city of New York, who recently noti-
fed Mayor Gaynor that the city
could be held for damages caused
through an order of the Park Com
missioner in directing" motorists
over a given portion of a public high
way-to wit, Coney Island Boule-
ward, between Kings Highway and
22d street. The Mayor at once di-
rected the Commissioners to rescind
their order.
The Touring Club of America has
been urging a test case such as has
Just been decided in Pennsylvania,
and it now proposes that an action
shall be brought against the toll road
companies in New England, with
view to showing that if, in accord
ance with the precedent established
! by the court regarding water bars in
| public highways, the local govern
ments can be held for damages, it
is also true that companies operat-
| ing toll roads can likewise be held
| for damages caused to cars and
motorists through water bars on
! these private roads.
Such a test case would also apply
| to the famous road over Peru Noun
tain. The same action would apply
! to owners of large estates who have
| through influence closed public roads
| and opened in return for the privi-
lege road through their property, at
the same time attempting to prevent
fast driving by introducing danger
Gus water bars.
Along the same line the club
! hopes to meet with success for the
motor tourists in the elimination of
what might be termed sight bar
riers' at prominent highway inter-
sections and grade crossings. This
work was begun last year through
the clubs branch at the Hotel Wen
dell, in Pittsfield. This year it has
been extended, and so far many cross
highways nave Deen cleared up ny

ting property owners and then send

Falls about a quarter of ten. He
stopped at William f. Riefler's store
there and from that place could see
BorCher sitting on the porch in his
shirt sleeves. When Borcher saw
the sheriff he started to run through
the garden to get away. Sheriff
Kimble started after him, calling to
him to stop About thirty rods from
the house Borcher reached a knoll
and ran around it, and when the
sheriff came up on the other side of
the knoll, Borcher was in the act
of drinking something from bot
tie. He threw the bottle down and
said, Your too late Frank. | took
carbolic acid Kimble asked him
what he did that for and he replied,
I'll never go to States prison. They
did not give me fair show at the
hearing and l said l would kill my
self before l would go away" The
bottle was lying on the ground and
he picked it up and said, That's
it, and lost consciousness. Sheriff
Kimble called help and with the help
of Henry Layton, William Tamblyn
and two other men, they carried
Borcher to the house, where they
| " or h6u " revive ullu. Ut. L. d.
| Petersen was called and while wait
ing for him the men had him drink
the contents of about three bottles of
sweet oil. Borcher died about five
minutes after DR.. Petersen arrived,
| having lived about an hour after
taking the acid. An inquest was
| deemed not necessary. The mother
arrived soon after the son expired.
The funeral services were held in
Tanners Falls on Tuesday morning
at eleven o'clock. Interment was
made in Riverside cemetery.
Borcher was twenty-nine years OF
age and had lived all his life in Tan
ners Falls. He was a large man and
of apparently powerful physic He
was known to be a hard working
and industrious young man and it is
regrettable that such a man should
be afflicted. He was subject tC
spells of nervousness and for about
a year he had not been just right
which caused the neighbors to feal
him, but of late he had been much
improved in mind.
I He is survived by his mother, one
brother, Asa Borcher, of Jimmisor
City; two sisters. Mrs. Edward Star
buck, of New York City, and Mrs
Warren Brown, of Honesdale.

oh, yes, don't forget the big cele-
bration we are going to have in
Honesdale on August %, 2S and 29.
You must make arrangements to
come one day at least. Everybody is
going to be here and we will expect
you.
The farmers of Wayne county
are all getting interested in the big
grange parade and also the people
from the adjoining counties will be
here in numbers.
Carbonate has decided that there
is not enough time to get up a cele-
bration and have called theirs off un-
til next year Now Honesdale will
have full swing and our celebration
will be bigger and better than at first
planned. The attractions will be
first-class and you can come to
Honesdale on any of the above men
toned days or come in and stay all
three days and you will be royalty
entertained.
The committees on printing have
envelopes announcing the celebration
which they want the merchants to
help use to advertise the event. The
envelopes can be obtained of N. B.
Spencer or i. w. Schuerholz. Post
cards, artistically designed, and got
ten up in the form of a regular pos
tai card, with an advertisement OF
the big event on it, are also for the
use of everyone free of charge

ASSAULT AND BATTERY CASE.

Fred Cook, who is employed at
the Irving Cut Glass factory, had a
warrant sworn out for the arrest of
William Tarkett, before Squire Il.
A. Smith on Tuesday morning, charg-
ing him with assault and battery.
Cook alleges that on Monday night
at about 10 o'clock he was assaulted
by Tarkett, who is one of the strik-
ers at the Irving. The affair took
place on River Road near Cooks
home. This is the third time thai
Mr.. Cook has been assaulted by some
one of the strikers and 1t is high time
that some decided action on the part
of the citizens was made to put a
stop to this business for all time.
There is a possibility that it will de-
velop into outright lawlessness In
time II not stopped. VIII not our
citizens be afraid to venture out at
night If this continues?
The hearing was held before
Squire r. A. Smith this afternoon
at 2 o'clock and Tarkett was fined
