Electrical Freakishness.

During an electrical storm last week
lightning played some freakish pranks
ut the home of Mr.. J. P. Shaw, east
Of town. A storm came up and the
men-folk came in from the field in
time to take shelter in the home just
as a stroke Of lightning passed down
the lightning rods into the living
room, where Mrs. Shaw and other
members of the household were gath
cred. On a nearby table was some
ears of mutton corn. The electric
current passed into one of these and
shattered it, then tackled a cake OF
soap on an adjacent shelf and threw
it against the side Of the house sew
eral feet away. Mrs. Shaw was sit
ting at the table, close to the corn,
when the stroke occurred, but beyond
damage to the ear Of corn and cake OF
soap and few boards torn from the
outside Of the house, not hair was
disturbed.

WOMAN RELEASED ON BAIL
Mrs. Burgess, Who Shot Husband
Leaves for Atlanta.

Mrs. Edna Burgess, the woman who
shot and killed her husband, Guy Bur-
CESS. in Florence last week, was re-
leased from the county Jail there Sat-
urday afternoon, bail being granted
her in the sum of $1,000, which was
furnished by J. F. Stackley and D. NJ.
McEachern, local citizens. Several
of her relatives from Atlanta have
been with her since Thursday morn
ing and she left Florence the first of
this week for Atlanta where she will
spend some time awaiting trial.
"That is not the way he combed
his hair or wore his tie," were the first
words of Mrs. Burgess when she went
to the morgue to view, for the last
time, the remains of her late husband.
With these comments she proceeded
to rearrange his hair and tie almost
as casually as if he had been living
and no such tragedy had been enact
ed between them.
"It's a shame, Guy, that you are
lying there that way, but you didn't
do right" she commented il. 'onclud-
ing her last service to him.
Mrs. Burgess went from the county
Jail to the undertaker's parlor to view
the body before it should be taken to
Atchison, Kan, for burial. It was re-
posing then in an open casket and box
for shipment. She broke down upon
returning to the county Jail and for
some time was unable to control her
grief.
