LIGHTNING PLAYS
TWICE ABOUT FARM
srRlkEs AND BURNS BARN, THEN
COMES BACK LATER 70 At
TACK MADDY HOME. -

Lightning has used some queer tao.
tics in it's maneuvering about the
home of A. w. Maddy, west of OF.
tunwa, recently.
Three weeks ago during a wind and
electrical storm. the barn on the place
was struck and burned. The horses
were In the pasture but all OF the We.
hicles, with the exception Of a small
spring wagon, were destroyed.
Last week. while the Maddy family
was in town looking after the pur-
chases OF some new buggies and wag.
ons the house was struck and con.
siderable damage resulted. The chin.
news were knocked loose. plasterins
fell and debris scattered all over the
place. =.
