Brown, Walhalla.-Adv. t. f.
Last Monday night the users Of
electricity in Walhalla got a full dose
of electric Inconvenience, the lights
in residences and on the streets going
and coming at intervals, giving at
times a fair representation Of flashes
Of lightning, finally remaining dark
for the balance Of the night. The
trouble was located Tuesday morning
In the crossing Of several telephone
wires with the light wires in Midway
near the residence Of A. p. Crisp and
broken insulator near West Union.
The trouble was rectified early Tues
day. 1t was regular "off again, on
again, gone again, Finnegan," expert
ence, but it was just one Of those in
conveniences that must be looked for
at times, and in no way materially af-
fects the great convenience that the
lights arc pIoving as rule. The cur
rent from the municipal plant will be
turned on tonight, it is expected.
C. II. Humphries, "the Man
from Kahn" will be at our store
ready to take your measure on Mon
day next. January 18th. You will be
cordially, received. C. w. & j. E.
