Heavy Rain
South of City
Lightning Played Havoc With
Telephone Lines-Hail Fell
In Some Sections

Rain touched, with its cooling
hand, the fevered brow Of this
community last Saturday after
noon. Recorded as the hottest
August day in Minnesota history,
Saturday was visited In various
sections with cooling rain, hail,
lightning, and in some sections
highwinds.
The City cooled with only a
sprinkling settling the dust. The
cooling effect was found emanating
from the sectors south Of the city
where hail and heavy downpour
was part of the storm. In the
communities of Metre Grove, Ell
rosa, and Padua, lying to the
south, heavy rains punctuated with
hail laid a sheet Of water that de-
fled the vision Of motorists.
Lightning played its bothersome
pranks as usual. Striking south
Of Melrose it put out Of order the
toll lead passing through the local
exchange Of the Northwestern Bell
Telephone company. Four circuits
were out Of order with the flash
and Manager Forsyth rushed to
the scene to make the necessary re-
pairs. From lightning fifteen pri-
vate phones in this city were out of
order temporarily. BY Saturday
evening all were repaired and in
readiness again.
Bluffingly clouds threatened to
pour rain on this city on Sunday,
but with only a few fitful showers
they passed by with clearing
skies In their wake. Tuesday came
hot and sultry and sandwiching
itself between Monday and wednes-
day presented contrast to the
cool Of those two days.

STATISTICS ON BLACK
WIDOW POISON SPIDER

How many black widow spiders are
Matched out of an egg or cocoon? A
black widow was seen on exhibition
last week at Easton in a glass jar
with two eggs in which at least one
CT them was Matched out. A great
manv little ones the size of the head
of a pin were seen crawling on the
sides of the glass jar. They were so
