FREAKS Of LIGHTNING
Little Girl Burned ON Forehead
Houses Struck hut No Fires
Follow.

St. Adams, June 14-That lightning
plays freaks was again demonstrated this
morning soon after II o'clock. when the
Clancy house, so-called. on Elm street.
which is occupied by Fred Guyette and
family; was struck and one of the little
Guyette girls was stunned, some damage
was done to the house and the bolt dis
appeared, leaving no trace of its exit
The little girl, who was standing in the
doorway, was burned on the forehead and
stunned several minutes Capboards
were ripped off the gable of the house
and thrown across an alley, breaking the
windows of a house seven or eight feet
away. The plaster was knocked off and
the house was so filled with smoke that
Chief F. j. Guerin of the fire depart
ment was summoned. No trace Of fire
could be found.
An insulating joint was burned from
the trolley wire Of the St. Adams &
Swanton Traction Co. at the corner of
Lake and Main streets during the storm
and this. it is thought was the work Of
lightning.
Lightning struck Bert e. Ryans house
on the Georgia road, tore off a few
boards and shingles and then entered a
room upstairs and went part way around
the room. Mrs. Ryan. who was in the
room, was somewhat dazed. but did not
realize until she went downstairs that
the house was struck. Mr.. Ryan, who
was at the barn near the house, was
knocked down, but not injured. In the
living room downstairs, little paper was
torn off the wall and a large silver taken
from a leg of the stand on which was a
graphophone. 1t could not be found
where the bolt entered or went out.

Petrograd, via London. June 1.-THE
Duma in secret session has passed a
resolution for an immediate offensive by

ments existing among the allies as to
war aims, with the exception of the Lon
don agreement which provides that none
of the signatory powers shall conclude a

freedom equally with our own, and we
ask you to fight for our freedom equally
with yours" said Elihu Root head OF
