A building in the rear of the Pinney home that had been used as a rabbit coop was com pletely destroyed, with a loss estimat- ed to be $150. The manner in which the building was set on fire was cu- rlous. A large pine tree grew about fifty feet from the coop. Lightning had struck this tree before, and on Thursday night again hit the same spot, reducing the large pine to splin- ters and travelling along the ground about fifty feet infiamed the rabbit coop. Residents in the immediate vicinity each imagined that his own nome had teen struck until investiga- tion proved just where the bolt had landed.

GRAIN GAMBLING ENDED
BL NEW REPUBLICAN ACT
Leader MOndell Explains Measure Re.
ported by House Committee
On Agriculture.

Washington, D. c. - That the pas
sage by the House of the bill restrict
ing trading in grain futures will be of
immense benefit to the farming in
terests Of the country is the opinion of
Representative Frank w. Mondell, of
Wyoming, the Republican floor lead
err. He says:
"The committee has endeavored, as
understand it, to retain a wide OPP
portunity for dealing and trading, both
in cash grain and in futures, and pre-
serving that opportunity is very i'm
portant one, think, for the grain
trade and for the grain growers. On
the other hand, the committee pro-
poses to outlaw by prohibities taxa
ton certain purely speculative, purely
gambling, transactions; transactions
that do not, as matter of fact, broad
EN- or extend or widen legitimate trad
ing in grain, but transactions which,
in the opinion Of many people, have a
tendency to produce a condition Of
fluctuation in the market, harmful,
alike, as they see it, to both the con-
sumner and the old producer.
"The desire of the committee has
been, as / understand it, to differen-
tiate between those transactions that
are legitimate, even those that may be
purely speculative, but necessary and
helpful to the dealer and not harmful
to the grower, and to put the ban on
pure, unadulterated and harmful
gambling. Whether the committee has
accomplished this purpose in an ideal
way l do not pretend to say, but be-
lieve they have approached their task
with an understanding of what was
needed, and I am inclined to the opin-
ion they have reached sound conclu-
sion. l want to compliment the COM
mittee on having approached this mat
ter from perfectly sane viewpoint, as
it appears to me. There are folks who
are misguided enough to believe that
