STORM CAUSES TROUBLE.
Severe Wind and Rain Storm Hits
Lancaster Wednesday Evening.

LdncdSter wednesday Evening"
Rain and wind came together last
Wednesday evening and a few min
utes later the electric light fiickered
and went out. The height of the storm
was about $50, and the little re-
cording meter at the Lancaster Light
& Power cOmpany's office which never
tells any lies, shows lapse from then
until 500 sharp.
Some inconvenience was eXperien-
ced by citizens in their homes, but
the old reliable candles and kerosene
lamps soon were shining as bravely
as they knew how to. The picture
houses suffered worse with good runs
but no current to show them. At s
o'clock things started again and no
trouble was experienced from then
on.
The trouble of it all was due to an
inoffensive piece of cedar bark that
flew from its support on a pole near
the fair grounds, and crossed up the
how and arrow wires. There is hung
water-soaked and kicked the break
er" at Platteville as fast as the switch
tender there could throw it on again.
1t was located and removed.

Owing to a break in the maxi

weather observer was unable to
make a report for the past week.

like spring. Last week some OF
the days were fair when the skies
were not overcast. 1t rained part
Of the time, when it wasn't dry.
Temperature got up fairly high
during the day, falling during the
night time. If it doesn't rain
there1l be
