One of the most severe storms that Lan caster has kuewn in a long time was that or last night. Net only was it heavy in this city, but it scorns te have spread al most ever the entire county, Rain began te lull in the upper part of the county early in the evening and it was accompanied by rain, which did a great deal of -damage. All veiling douse black clouds hung ever the city and rain was looked for at almost any moment. About S o'clock tliore was a Blight sprinkling and it continued at Intervals for seme time. By 10 o'clock the blackest kind of clouds had gathered, and a storm that has net been equaled in many years set in. There was the sharpest kind of lightning nnd for hours flash followed flash in the greatest rapidity. It seemed te be coming from everv part of the heavens. The thunder was terrillc and at times it seemed te shake every bulldingin the city. It sounded llke the dlscharge of heavy artillery. Several times It was believed that buildings had been struck In the city, as the cracks were of the sharpest kind. The lightning was se bright and the thun der se loud that many people who steed under awnings and in doorways watching the progress of the storm bocame frightened and were glad te tnke refuge Inside of the buildings. The lightning nnd thunder wero accompanied by a rain whtch poured down in torrents, the greater art of the night. At times it slackened up for a short titue but it seemed only te resume work again with Increased vigor. There was quite n heavy fall or hail between 11 and 12 o'clock It continued for soma tima and stoties as larixeuH hickory nuts fell. The hail did great damage. 1IAMAOK IN THE C1TV.

In the neighborhood of Hurnlsh's store the lightning seemed te be playing a game of hide and seek. It struck into the win dew or the Peeple's tea store, en the ether side or the stroet. burning te u crisp the paper that was around the chandelier in the window. In the same neighborhood a man was seen te te be knocked down dui lng one of the bright-Hashes, but he was only stunned and seen get away. A lire that was caused by the lightning occurred in the Examiner building about midnight. It started in the wooden celling of the press room, which is in the cellar. It is bolievod that the II re entered the room ou the elcctrie light wire or the gas" pipe. At any rate, the ceiling took flte, and it was discovered by Wiiiner Kautz, a young man who was passing.

Ac, were scattered all about him, but, fortunately; he was net hurt. When ene of the shaip cracks of thunder occurred, Geerge, the big gray herss. which draws the hese cart of Ne. 4 lire company, fell heavily te the fleer and it is bolievod that he was atlectcu by the lightning. A large cherry tree near tiie Park heuse was struck by lightning and badly damuged. The lightning struck thn heuse of Leuis Behtncr, who resldes en East Chestnut street between Franklin and Marshall, knocking the chimney te pieces and tear ing oil' a number of slates. Jehn It.

A nerwards he was knocked out of bed, as he supposes, liv lichtnine. He knew nothing until he found himself en the Uoer. Tuu jail nt water was tremendous in this city, and many of the streets, especially where tliore is any grade, were badly washed. Many of the inlets were tilled with band and stones, and in seme places the water Heeded the pavements. Afler Chief Engineer Vendcrsmltli had made an examination of the llre alarm wires he found that box 1G was entirely burned out and cannot lie used again until it is repaired.

TIE CIllrSB T8 IB NAIE IN TIB Per ep mm ifhciaw. MAN- Lancaster County Population Great Enough te Authorize Adoption or the Salary Act A New Judicial Officer. Will the county officers elected in November for Lancaster county be paid a salary, or receive as their emoluments the fees of thelf rcspective otllces, is a question that has been frequently discussed receutly by the candidates. Lancaster county is in a peculiar position. Ten years age the population of the county was above 139,000. The present census will show beyond a doubt that thore are ever 160,000 poeplo. In answer it can be said that the official declaration of the census alene will decide the nbove query. If net elllcially declared bofero these officers fnke their seals they may resist any attempt te compel them te accept a salary Instead or fees, en the ground that tbclr compensation can net be chauged during the term for which they were oiectcd. If tbe same routlne work In compiling the general census is pursued in ascertain ing the population of Iancastcr county, there does net apicar te be any chance of the official (lgure reaching Lancaster for a ceuple of years. Lancaster's clnlm for official totals might be made special (as Is the custom In certaln favored cases in the pension department) through theiullticnce of Statesman Landis with Itebert r. Perter, the boss or the census, and in that way thore would be a probability or getting Lancaster's efftcjal population befere the time theso who arc clouted in Novembor can take their otllces in January. TltK HAI.ARV 1III.I.. The Legislature of Pennsylvania en March 14, 1870, itussed an act or assembly providing that in all counties of the com monwealth having mere than 150,000 and less than a-'tO.OOO inhabitants the county officers shall be paid a salary.

The county commissioners would be boneflttod by the change, as their compensation is new (J per day and mileage, only for the days occupied with the business or the county.

Au agreement was reached by the con cen ferrees en the disagreeing votes of the tw e Houses mi the general pension bill, and the report of the conferees was submitted aud agreed te by the Heuse ou Wodnesduy, as described in our disputches. As explained in detail in the Heuse, the measure ogrced upon will add 2.V),000 names te the pension roll, Increase the pensions of 60,000 men who are already en the roll, and will add &ie,000,000 te the annual disbursements for pensions. Theso llgures are given by the ad vocates of lhe uieusure nnd may be regarded as the minimum. In all pre vious legislation of this kind, whero estimates wero presented, they foil cry far short of tbe actual exenditures, and it is probable that, in tills case, tbe 15,000,000 which the managers give as the prebable cost or this piece el legislation will be deuble that amount when the rolls urn com pleted. The enactment nfthe bill will sw ell lhe pension roll ler the fiscal year or 1SD1 te uu aggregate or nearly $170,000,000, If It docs net exceed that sum.

AMIK BOWERS' CAPACITY FQR LYUG IS EVIDENTLY UNLIMITED, She Tells a Philadelphia Officer or Mal treatment nt the lainciMtcr County Peer Ituitsn-IIer Story Net True. A big, rough, coarse-looking girl named Annie Dewers, who was before Mayer Clark en Tuesday morning, turned up In Philadelphia last ovon evon oven ing. She was found walking along the street by Sergeant Jerdan, of the Ninth police district, and she proceeded te tell film a horrible story. The tale appears In soveral of the Philadelphia papers this morning. Here it Is as the Vitus received " Fer two years she has bcen an inmate of the Lancaster county almshouse, and her inother, who was also an inmate, died there some tlme age. "Ou Monday night two young men, night watch men at the institution, entered her room, selr.ed her, threw her en tire bed and white ene held his hand evor her mouth te prevent any outcry, the ether assaulted her. In the morning before day light they returned and repeated the out eut out rnge, and premised te give her a dollar ir shokept quiet. On Tuesday she ropertod It te a man whom she says she only knew as the ' Bess,' aud he said he would Investigate the matter. In the nrtorueon she complained or violent pains lu lhe abdomen, aud the doctor was tout te exairrlne Iter. At the conclusion or the ox ex ox nmlnntlen he said he would leek into the mailer, and thou went nwny. She heard nothing mere about it until yesterday, when sua was summened te npiear befere the ' Bess,' who told her she must go te the Heuso or Refuge at Philadelphia. She was Slyen in charge or n man who took her te ie deiiet and they beardod a train for Philadelphia. " They reached 11 read stroet station at 1 o'clock yosterday, and the man took her te the walling room and told her te slay tliore till he returned, she waited until four o'clock, hut he did net return, nnd thou alie decided te go out and hunt for the Heuso of Rofuge alone. She finally found her way te Twenty-third and Brown, whero slie met Sergeant Jerdan." UKH STOltY A l'Alinit'ATION. Poeplo who read the story and knew anything about the management or the almshouse under Steward Worst laughed at It, and everybody at ouce pronounced the story false. A report or of the Intki. i.KiK.Ncr.n, who had seen Annleat the hear ing bofero Mayer Clark, and then sus pected her of being a tramp, this morning Investigated the mailer. He learned enough te show thut Anule Is ene of lhe blggesl llarsen thn face of the earth. Al though she Invented a story that might scen i plauslble, the Investigation showed that It is almost impossible for her te tell the truth. The reporter Interviewed Steward Worst, Dr. Kllne and elhers who, knew about the girl, aud from them obtained the real truth. In the first place the girl was never nn Inuiatoef the almshouse bofero thiswoek, and Instead of spending two years tbere she was net thore quite two days. The first time that Mr, Worst saw the girl was en Monday evening. She came walking In the Philadelphia turnpike uud steppad at lhe almshouse. She asked te be kept evor night aud permission was given her. Hhe slept in lhe female ledgers' steeping apartment ln the basement of the In In saue asylum and was net molested at all. On Tuesday morning alie get her breakfast and started te town. She turned up at the station house between 7 nnd 8 o'clock and told thn chlofer pollce anether sad tale. Sbe sat iu the main room or 'lie station heuse and awaited the coming of lhe mayor. Afler his honor had disposed of the cases she was called up. She wus a big, simple-looking and rather dirty girl. Shu said that she had just ceme rrem the Heuse of Rofuge In Philadelphia nnd was sick with "summer complaint," whalevcr that Is. She said she hsd no home und wanted lhe mayor te send her seme place. The mayor committed her te the alms house. When she arrlved nt that Institu tion she was takeu In charge by Miss Eckert. ene or the lady attendants, who made iier take a bath, and wash and dry nor cieimug. jiKu-Minwv. She was spoken le by Mr. Worst, who Inquired of her history. She said she was born In Baltimore uud wus twenty years ofuge. She hud been living at Bleckloy almshouse, lu Philadelphia, but she did net knew hew long. The managers of that Institution secured u plaee for bur with lhe family of Charles Hawthorn, at Tuceny. She did net knew hew long she was there, but she ran away about April 1st. Last Saturday she started from Philadelphia en Teet and walked te laincuster. When Mr. Worst heard her story he said IT she belonged lu Philadelphia she would have te go I jack, as Lancaster county could net keep her. She w as shlppel te Philadelphia yesterday afternoon ou lhe train which loll bera at 12:bg. She was went te low u en a struct cjir and wus met at tbe P. R. R. station bylr. Kllne, tbe physician or the institutions, who purchased a tlcket le Philadelphia for herand placed her en lhe curs. She wus net seen again by any or tbe Lancaster authorities. Mr. Werm wrote a loiter te Oliver Belder, heuse agent nt lllockley, about the case, but as yet liu received no reply. Mr. Worst had net scen the story iu lhe Philadelphia papers until he was shown n copy oftiie Vitas. He and Dr. Kllne both reau itauu soemou annoyen iiiu uuy nucu wild stories should be published. They did net think that many poeplo would bellove It, et they did net like it. They said that during her stay ut tlioulmshetiso she was net ill treated by anybody. Ou Tuesday uluht she slenl iu lhe main build ing, whero ether wemen were. She did net call en the doctor at uuy time for aid or anything else, uud he only saw that she get en tbe train safely. She scorned perfectly willing te go le Philadelphia. She says that slie arrived in Philadelphia at ene o'clock and was llien abandoned by lhe man having iier lu charge. The truth Is that she did net lcave here until ene o'clock and she was net accompanied by any ene. The story of the girl Is se utterly davel d of truth that no ene but a Philadelphia policeman would helle ve it after soel ng nor. She leeks llke u simpleton, but is big aud strong enough te whip an ordinary man. AiiiiIm told a police ofllcer white at the station heuse that she was rulsed ut lhe Children's Heme, in this city, and was given te u farmer who had her sent te the Heuso of Refuge for bad conduct. A filCHMA.V DAItKIIY. A Colerod Mini AVhe Whs Raised lu the Old Country. A man who urrlved iu Lancaster yester day and attracted a great deal of attention was a young coleml (lerman. He came here with u young white man nnd both looked very much us though they were what the boys call "en a bum." They appeared In soveral saloons and it was seen ieiiiiii niai iiiu coierou man wus something of n curiosity. He is unable le speak a single word of English, but talks Cieruiau entirely, using tbe best of language. Te a reporter of lhe I.ntki.M riKMtrii, who chanced te run across him, he sisike qultu Ireely and told something of his history. He said that he was Ixiril Ir. Western Africa, but wlien a mere boy was taken le Uermany, He attouded whoel lu Berlin and became a full-Hedged German. He utlerwards worked us a waiter fur families. Some liine age he conceived the idea of coming te America. He was anxious te learn the English language, as he thought he would lie mere likely te get a better position it he would return te (Jermutiy able te sieak both laiigiiHges. He came te America about two mouths age. Hoglvcsliisiiume aUoergoStolntiicl7, and says that he was thus christened lu Germany. He was In tel vlewed by a number or very intelligent Hermans or this city, and they found thut he told a very straight story. He is as black as u crew, but Is a man of niore than ordinary Intelligence. He plays a mouth organ well and Is full of fun. He knows no ene iu America and be says he met the fellow who is with him nil the steamer (Mining across. It scorned wry funny te Lancaster peeple tnlieura colerod limn talking Octinan, but It was much funnier for celcued people. THE NOMINATIONS.
