AN ELECTRICAL STORM.

Last Wednesday afternoon this sec
tion OF Iowa was visited by severe
electrical storm which did more or
less damage in Manchester and vicin-
ity The Fletcher residence on West
Howard street was struck by light
ming and in few moments the en-
tire building was in flames. The fire
department succeeded in saving the
greater part of the building, but the
contents OF the house was badly dam
aged by water and fire. We understand
that the family carried no insurance
using the lectric iron. and had just
lightning followed the electric lines
to- the east end OF Howard street,
where light globes were put Ont OF
commission in large numbers. At the
Herman Roloff home near tragedy
was enacted Mrs Roloff had been
using the electric iron, and had Just
placed the iron on the table to do
something else in the home. Just as
she turned she noticed a ball Of fire
leap from the iron towards the sew
ing machine, and out through an open
window to wire fence just outside
of the house. Upon returning to the
table on which she left the iron she
noticed the table leg splintered to lit
tie bits and small piece broken from
the iron. Fortunately for the fam
lily that Mrs. Roloff did not have the
iron in her hand at the time the bolt
came into the house on the electric
line. .~r-~'~T,HYynTs
