MOUNTAIN AGAIN AFIRE

Between 300 and 400 acres of tim
ber land in the Catoctin Mountains,
west of Thurmoht were burned over
from Sunday to Tuesday night. The
flames swept a section of the noun
tain known as "Rattlesnake Hill,"
and the heat drove hundreds of rep
tiles from their dens.. The snakes
became so numerous that District For
ester C. Cyril Klein had difficulty in
keeping the fire-fighters on the job.
The fire was discovered early Sun
day morning and Mr.. Klein was mott
fed. By the time he reached the fire
zone the flames were advancing along
the side of the mountain. He sum-
moned about Is persons to help fight
the fire and while these were at work
Joseph E. Thropp, owner of the Ca
toctin Furnace property, sent dozen
and another dozen were added by Fire
Warden Albert L. Hauver. The
flames spread rapidly. During Mon
day the fire reached "Rattlesnake
Hill," dense piece of young timber
and underbrush, and as the flames
swept over the hill hundreds of rep
tiles, many of which were huge rat
tiers, sought a place of safety from
the advancing fire. One of the fire
fighters killed three large rattlers, one
after another, and half dozen men
then turned their attention to dis
patching the reptiles. Besides snakes
dozens of pheasants were frightened
| from their haunts.
Forester Klein said he was unable
to say until an investigation had been
made whether or not the fire was of
incendiary origin.
From the State Road about half
mile south of town the fire presented
a spectacular appearance. BY Tues
day night the fighters had control of
it, with but very few patches of
| flames in sight.

HOMES ROBBED

Three homes were robbed and two
attempts made in Middletown and vi
cinity Saturday night and upward tc
$4,000 worth of property carried off
From the home of Emory L. Coblentz
Middletown, jewelry valued at about
81 500 was taken. The other places
entered include the residences of Har.
mon L. Routzahn and C. G.. Biser
Attempts to rob were made on the
homes of Richard Kefauver and of
Mrs. George Gaver.
The home of Mr.. Coblentz is believ-
ed to have been entered before
o'clock. Mrs. Cablentz was in the
flower garden until that hour.
The robbery was not discovered in
the Coblentz home until Sunday morn
ing. On going to her jewelry case
Mrs. Coblentz found that it's contents
had been removed. Nothing else of
value was taken from the house.
The home of Mr.. Routzahn was en-
tered at some time prior to 1890
o'clock. At that hour Mary Routzahn,
daughter of Mr. Routzahn, entered her
room and found the room had been
ransacked. Some clothing was taken
from this home.
Sheriff James A. Jones was notified
and hastened to the Routzahn home.
He found clothing taken from the
Routzahn home in the garden back of
the house but no other clues. At this
time it was not known that other Mid
dletown homes had been entered.
C. C. Biser, owner and manager of
the mills west of Middletown, discov-
cred early Sunday morning that his
residence in Air View had been enter
ed. He found that the desk in his
study had been forced open, the draw
ers ransacked, and sack of money
stolen from one of the drawers.
When the family of Richard Kefau-
yer, Air View, east of Middletown,
rose Sunday morning, Julia kefauVer,
his daughter, discovered that the shut
ter over one of the pantry windows
had been pried open and the window
forced. The house was not entered
Nothing was missed.
Alfred w. Gaver, son of Mrs. Geo.
Gaver, discovered Sunday morning that
the shutter of window at the rear of
the house had been broken, window
forced open, and screen cut. Nothing
of value was missed, however.

FARM BUILDINGS BURNED

A large bank barn, hay shed, dairy
and tenant house on the farm of John
Thomes, near Adamstown, were de-
Stroyed by lightning during storm
shortly after q o'clock Saturday after
noon. A COW, four calves, farming i'm
plements and machinery, some poultry
and quantity of hay and corn were
also burned, causing a loss of about
$4,000, partly insured.
Mr.. Thomas was sitting in a front
room in the house during the storm.
Following a vivid flash of lightning,
he walked to the door and found the
roof of the barn in flames. In short
time the fire communicated to the hay
shed, dairy, tenant house and adjoin-
ing buildings. The tenant house was
occupied by Charles Houpt, who saved
it's contents. The barn and its con-
tents, including the livestock and
farming implements, were entirely
consumed.
A number of persons in the neigh
borhood, attracted by the fire, went to
the scene, but were unable to do any
thing in the way of saving the prop
erty. The flames burned rapidly until
all the buildings were in ashes.

with an automobile driven by Samuel

CROPS SEVERELY DAMAGED BY
HAIL AND WIND

A terrific hail storm cut swath
through the fertile Sharpsburg and
Rohrersvile sector of Washington
county, Nd, last Sunday evening
leaving a path of ruin and destruc-
ton, according to reports from Ha-
gerstown. Conservative estimates of
damage caused to homes, farm build
ings, fields of wheat and corn and to
fruit orchards were placed at between
$150O0O and 100000, but there were
others who predicted it may reach
$250000 when careful check is made
Entire fields of wheat in the path of
the storm were left as if great scythe
had passed over them, while whole or
chards of apples and peaches were
stripped of their fruit in a section Is
miles long and two miles wide, stretch
ing from the Potomac river about a
mile south of Sharpsburg, to the top
of South Mountain above Rohrersville.
Hundreds of panes of glass were
smashed by hail stones, which, it is
said, were in some places as large as
hen eggs.
At Rohrersville, a small village at
the base of the mountain, where the
storm appeared to halt, the hail stone
were smaller than elsewhere, but for
half an hour they fell in torrents and
covered the ground.
The storm gained in intensity, ac-
cording to campers along the Potomac
river, Just after it had crossed this
stream near Sharpsburg. From the
river it cut clean patch for Is miles.
This path ranged from a mile in width
to two miles.
Large patches of Strawberries were
so badly damaged that no berries will
be harvested.
Wheat fields on the farms of Wal
ter Stouffer and Edward Thomas,
about a mile and half south of
Sharpsburg, directly in the path of the
storm after it crossed the river, were
cut to pieces. Cherry trees also were
stripped of their ripening fruit.
Lookout Mountain Orchard, owned
by Lancelot Jacques, Sr., and tenanted
by w. E. McAfee, the largest orchard
in the southern section of the county
| which is located on the top of the
mountain above Rohrersville, suffered
thousands of dollars damage. Every
knocked out by the hail stones.
A high wind, accompanying the
storm, uprooted many trees, number
of small roads were blocked by faller
trees and branches torn off by the
wind.
The full extent of the damage prob,
ably will not be known for several
days.
