Our Kellettville correspondent gives us
the following account of a destructive
lightning bolt:
During the storm about two o'clock
Friday afternoon lightning struck Ralph
Grove's barn on bis farm on the bill
north of here and It was burned to the
ground, together with twenty tous of
bay, a wagon, a new manure spreader, a
back, harness, etc. A load of bay bad
Just been driven into the barn and left
standing while the family was at dinuer.
When the explosion of lightning came
the doors were blown from the barn and
in a moment it was enveloped In names
Three work horses, which were har
nessed, and a colt were saved by Levi
Grove, wbo loosed them after the barn
was in a blaze-and they ran out unhurt.
On account of the wet weather a portion
of Mr. Grove's bay aud bis wheat were
yet in the fields. He carried no insur
ance and bis loss will be heavy, it being
at least $1,500. The barn was a good
bank structure, about 40x50 feet, and had
been rebuilt by nlui about three years
ago.
The Team was His Own.
The Derrick of Friday contaiued the
following item: "W. M. Grouer, a
prominent farmer of Washington town
ship, Clarion county, was in town on
business TLursday and experioncn! a
few unpleasant minutes, from which he
was relieved by identification by some
Oil City acquaintances. On Saturday ol
last week a pair of sorrel horses, weigh
ing about 1,050 pounds each, and a slat
huggy, with red rnnning gear, were
stolen from Scott Aguew, of Cooksburg,
Forest county, aud the last beard of the
outlit was that it was headed this way.
The team driven to town by Mr. Groner
answered the description of the one stolen
In Forest county, even to a white strip on
the face of one of the animals, two white
bind fee 00 one horse and one white
hind foot on the other. While he waa on
the road between here and Venus, an Oil
City Liveryman, wbo bad been furnished
a description of the stolen outfit, passed
and at the first farm bouse where a
telephone was installed., he used it to
notify persons Interested here that he be
lieved the stolen outfit was coming to
town.
When Mr. Groner arrived and put up
bis team he was naturally surprised at
the large number of men who gathered
around the outfit and was puzzled at the
questions asked biin, most of tliein
pointing towards tho manner In which
be had secured the horses and the route
he had taken to reaob Oil City. It finally
dawned upon bim that he was suspected
of having stolen the team and was looking
to be put to so ne trouble and possibly
expanse when an Oil City friend appeared
and explained matters and the crowd
drifted away. Their mistake was natural
aa not only did the description of the
borses fit, but Mr. Groner's buggy was a
slat-box one, with red running gear.
When it was all over no one enjoyed the
joke more than the Clariou oouuty
visitor."

section will remember the stories told by
Barnes at Franklin and of how, when
they were investigated by the Lawronce
county authorities who had been search
ing for Blevins' murders, thejf were
found to be false.
Barnes, when next beard of following
uU jail sentence at Franklin that was
given in lieu of a penitentiary imprison
ment after be bad told his stories, was
after the disappearance at Kane and Lud
low of two boys a couple ol years ago.
One named Adams from Kane, and the
other named Stelau from Ludlow. He
went to the father of the Ludlow boy and,
under representations that be was a de
tective and knew the whereabouts of tbe
Stefan lad, was able to obtsiu $25. He
was arrested for tbis crime and sent to
the Allegheny county work house, where
he now Is doing time.
At that institution he has again got
busy and, by telling the story that be
knew whore tbe two McKean county lads
are, induced the county detectives and
au attorney to investigate the matter and
again he was found to be at his old tricks.
He lirst wrote a letter to a woman
named McParland, in McKean county he
having obtained her name from a news
paper containing an account of her bus
hand's suicide. Ho claimed (o lie the
husband's half-brother and that there was
considerable money coining from an
estate to tho McFarlands. He also told
her a story of how tbe boys at Ludlow
bad been stolen for a ransom and of where
they had been taken.
Mrs. Mc Karl and placed the letters in
the hands of the aiitboi ities ami nlso en
gaged an attorney to look up her hus
band's claim to the supposed estate. The
investigation proved the yarn a tissue of
falsehoods.
Barnes is a plausable liar and made
friends of a prisoner in the workhouse
and made bim believe that lie was a half
brother of the man thus securing money
for tobacco, etc.
