Lightning Causes Loss

Washington Times:-Andrew
Thompson bad the. misfortune to
loose his barn by lightning IN the
storm early Saturday morning.
Fortunately Mr. Thompson was
awakened by the crash that follow.
ed the stroke and discovered the fire
Immediately and by quick work on
the part of himself and the bows
managed to liberate the sixteen
head of horses which were in the
barn at the time. getting the last
one out just in time. The barn had
just been filled with hay and this
together with most of the harness
and other stuff which is usually
found in a farm barn was burned.
Mr. Thompson carried a small
amount of insurance, but not near
ly enough to cover the loss. How
ever, he counts himself exceptionally
lucky in having saved the horses.
The granary was only a short dis
lance from the barn, but the wind
was favorable to prevent the flames
from reaching that. The cow barn
was also set on fire, but they suc-
ceeded in putting that out before
any damage had been done. Dur
ing the same storm the chimney on
the Splcer home north of town was
struck and badly demolished and
some clothing in a closet badly
sc0rched. The electricity played
some exceedingly queer freaks in
this case. Out at the Simon Cob
ring home southwest some stock
was killed.

SHERRY SEES BIG FUTURE
 FOR TOLOVANA

J. J. Sherry. mining engineer formerly associated with Col W. L.. stevenson of Boston and Skagway, passed through to Seattle yesterday on the steamship Humboldt, on his way to the Outside to buy machinery for the working of mining property in the new Tolovana district
 Mir. sherry's principal prospect is the Leitrim claim. He says that pay has been found principally on Liven- good Creek. from No. 1 Discovery to 2l above on the benches. On the deep channel Harry Patterson blocked out 10000 feet. worth about S400O0, on Liyengood. with only a summer lay. Patterson is trying to get an exten- sion of his lease from Dave cascadden and Tom MacKinnon, who own the ground.
 "Pay has been found on z Above, Mike Hess Creek MT. Sherry con tinued. There are number of good prospects on that creek, which is about So miles long and has a number of tributaries which are expected to show good ground On Patterson creek. one of its tributaries. there are tremendous outcroppings of gravel. On the surface they pan about a quarter of a cent to the pan. It would be a fine dredging or hy- draulio proposition.
 That the Toiovana is destined to become one Of the greatest camps in Alaska Is Mr. Sherry's opinion. He bases this on the results so far ob tained
 Mr. Sherry will spend two weeks lr Juneau on bis way north.
