The attorney for Layer held that

ELEVATOR AT SURREY
STRUCK BY LIGHTNING

Lightning struck the Farmers Co
operative Elevator at Surrey early
Friday morning doing damage esti-
mated at $500.
The blaze was discovered by a cou-
pie of colored gentlemen who We're
travelling thru Surrey that morning in
side door Pullman. They were
good enough to give The alarm and
the Surrey fire department headed by
the able chief, j. H. Burns, got on the
job at once and put out the blaze,
which was confined to the cupola. A
good sized hole was torn in the cupola
where the bolt entered the building
and another where it made it's exit.
The lightning travelled downward un-
til it struck 14-foot steel rod which
was used in cleaning out the chutes,
when it travelled across the elevator
and out Of the building, saving con-
siderable damage. A blaze was
started in three or four places and
the elevator would have been a COM
plete loss with it's thousands of bush
els of grain had it not been for the
prompt work of the Surrey fire de-
partment which owns two 4O-gallon
chemicals, which fortunately were
we'll charged. This illustrates the
necessity of keeping a watchful eye
on all chemical apparatus to see that
it is we'll charged.
The Minot fire department was no
titled soon after the blaze was dis
covered and Chief Winfield Leas and
Asst. Chief James OLeary, accom-
panied by A. A. Robinson, one of
the owners of the elevator, rushed out
to Surrey in car, carrying with
them a quantity of soda and acid.
The fire was nearly out when they
arrived.
