Firemen of Company ;
Narrowly Escape Death.
West End Fire House Struck
by Lightning Last Thurs
day Evening.

Eight of the fremen of Fire COM
pany No. 8 and one other person
narrowly escaped serious injury last
Thursday evening at about eight
o clock when the west end fire house
was struck by lightning. The
firemen had gathered at the
house for their monthly meeting
when the electrical storm passed over
this section. The fremen were dis
cussing the need of some repairs to
the belfry of the building and it was
decided to send one of the men up to
see what repairs were needed when a
bolt of lightning struck the building,
SCATTERING the belfry and doing con-
siderable damage All of the nine
men in the building were knocked off
their feet by the shock and son of
Charles Peterson who was standing in
front of the building was knocked
unconscious for few minutes. The
men say it is an experience that they
do not want again but are none the
worse off for the shock they received.
During this same storm the flag
pole on the Lincoln school house was
struck by lightning, as was also the
home of A. P. Fraser on west third
street. Both places were damaged
to some extent but no persons were
injured.

LONG BRInGE INPASSABLE
A Section Of the Bridge
Collapsed During the
Past Week.

The long bridge at the head of the
bay is said to be impossible, one
section of it having given away Sun
day afternoon while Commissioner
Nohl of Ashland and his two sons
were driving over the bridge.
Mr.. Nohl and his sons were re-
turning from their summer home at
Nash. As they were passing over
the bridge, without any warning, a
section of it collapsed under the horse
and the horse went through. Mr..
Nohl and his sons jumped from the
the wagon, and the horse was held
from going into the water by being
fastened to the buggy. The horse
was cut loose and dropped into the
water and swan ashore.
A large number of autos passed
over this bridge during the same day
and it is indeed fortunate that some
serious accident did not take place.
The bridge is now out of cCm-
mission and people going from the
section west of Fish Creek to Ashland
are compelled to go by way of Benoit,
the long bridge over Fish Creek near
the Junction also being out of COM
mission until the new steel bridge
can be put in place. ~
