Large Barn Burned.
Wheat, Hay and Machinery
COnsumed-Partial Insurance.

A very heavy thunder storm passed
over the northern part of Frederick
county last Sunday evening about nine
o'clock, the storm centre apparently be-
ing to the north of Thurmont. The light
ming and thunder were about as heavy
as is ever heard. The rain locally was
heavy for few minutes, considerable
hail falling with the rain.
During the passing of the storm a bolt
of lightning struck the large barn on
Mr.. Vernon Smiths farm, situated about
a mile north of Lewistown along the
State Road. Mr.. Smith and family were
at home at the time, having but a few
minutes before gone into the house.
After the crash Mr.. Smith went on the
porch and saw flames coming from the
barn.
The only live stock in the barn was two
calves, and these were gotten out. All
of the seasons crops, including about 900
bushels of unthreshed wheat, 80 tons of
hay and some other feed, was consumed.
Much of Mr.. Smiths machinery was
burned, the flames spreading so rapidly
that it was impossible to get the binder,
drill, etc, out of the barn. A wagon
shed, chicken house, and granary were
saved by neighbors who carried water.
The barn was new one, being built but
two or three years ago. The crops and
barn were partially insured. The loss is
estimated at $4 900.

MI. ST. MarY'S Items.

The annual picnic of st. Anthony's
parish held last Saturday was a grand
success. The baseball games were cam
celled, but the flag raising took place at
the appointed time, Senator John P. T.
Matthias of Thurmont, making the ad-
dress. Following the address, the large
flag recently purchased by the gentlemen
of the parish for the occasion, was pre-
sented to the pastor by Rev. Paul Reyn-
ODDS The pastor, Rev. Tragesser, then
blessed the flag, after which it was fas
tened to the rope on the newly erect ed
pole and during the singing of the Star
Spangled Banner was hoisted to the top
the mast by Miss Mary Settler, the
granddaughter of Nicholas Settler a vet
eran of '63. Following the flag raising
the crowd marched to the woods where
they remained until rain scattered them.
The decorations at the rectory porch and
the Examinations in the grove have never
been equalleG. AS stated before, the
picnic was a grand success.

believe that their bombardment had
siienced them. The Germans then
sent section with field artillery to
attack forts only to find themselves
under fire. Only few ofothe attack
