was called on short notice and
not large number were pres
ent. A company was organized
and $500 worth Of stock was
pledged right on the spot. Every

charge such a price for the ser
vice that the stock will pay q
reasonable dividend. It will be
made possible for any one wish
ing to do so to own q share of
stock. The following directors
we're elected j. L. Black, J. E.

shipped to New York Cily and
Europe, always commanding a

0ebular Lightning.

According to Professor w. NJ. Thorn.
ton of Armstrong college, globular
lightning descends slowly from a
cloud, generally after violent clap OF
thunder. in the form of brilliant
BLUSH ball. 1t bounds from the earth
when it touches and then moves OF
few yards horizontally. These bulls
readily follow an electric conductor
a gas pipe. for instance - and burst
when they touch water or sometimes
in the open air. The bali then disap-
pears instantaneously with violent
explosion, which may do damage and
which produces a strong smell Of
ozone
Thornton believes with reason that
glObular lightning Is made up princi-
pally OF a mass Of ozone. This hy-
pothesis explains why the color Of the
ball Is usually blush. why the lumi-
nous mass descends slowly through the
air, ozone being of density about IL
times that Of air, and finally why the
instantaneous disappearance Of the
ball Is accompanied by an explosion,
for the transformation OF ozone into
oxygen iiberates great quantity OF
energy

Messrs. Victor Erlandson, A.
Holquist and John Nord went up
to Webster Monday in the inter.
ests of the Swedish Lutheran
church. The church here has
heretofore been supplied with
minister in conjunction with the
Strandburg church, but the
latter is now able to support a
minister by itself and as q new
church has recently been organ
lied at Webster, arrangements
will probably be made with a
minister to care for the Milbank

BOYS IN TROUBLE
Several of Our Yonng Bows We're
Brought Before Justice Bleser
and Held Until Circuit
Court COnyenes

A number of boys were arrest.
ed last Saturday and brought
before Judge Bleser, on a charge
Of destroying property and an
nOying Mrs. Hanson. a widow
lady who lives near the old
Holland windmill. From tile
complaint it appears that the
boys had during the fruit season
stolen fruit from the woman's
orchard, and when she attempt
ed to defend her property the
boys would throw stones at her
until she was obliged tu seek
cover in the house While the
womon was away from home for
a short time recently nursing
the sick the boys had gone into
her small orchard and cut her
fruit trees with saw and hatched
to get shinney sticks, running a
mum ber of the trees, and she had
been compelled to appeal to the
justice for protection from their
depredations. Justice Bleser
made the parents or friends of
the boys charged with the mis-
demeanOrs give a bond for their
future behavior, and to appear
before the judge of the district
court at the next session of the
court.
1t is possible that the boys
had not a full realization of what
they have been doing, but con
duct of this character may prove
very serious matter to them,
for their annoyance of the old
lady and the depredations they
have committed on her property
is very serious matter to her,
and she is justly entitled to the
protection of the law which she
has involsed. We withhold the
boys names from publication
under the belief that they did
not fully comprehend what they
were doing at the time, and that
their punishment by being hailed
into court will be sufficient to
deter them from future work of
this character.

nading the main street last Sat-

they are liable to q fine same as
their boys. They should pro-
