The Storm.
The sto.in of Monday afteuoon upset
hundreds of derricks in this county, and
liktteccd the oats and corn in hundreds of
fields.
In AUegheny several buildings were de
molished, one man was crushed to death
aid several inj"*ed, and several were
shocked by lightn ; ag.
At iioss Grove, a'oag the West Penn,
some campers took refuse ia the" com
missary leut or house ander a large syc
amore, and a large branch of the tree fell
apon it killing one man and injorag sev
eral others. The campers say the storm
approached them in the shape of a cyclone.
At Mars in this county large hail stones
fell with the deluge of rain, aad at one
place the tracks of the P. & V. were
flooded.
At Beaver Falls a strange incident was
noted. Lightning struck a large oak tree
about 30 feet from the residence of K V
Wilson and split it ?a two from top to
bottom. A large iron riig fastened in the
tree was torn loose and hurled like a rifle
ball through the window of Mr. Wilson's
residence missing that gentleman by a
hair's breadth and bodying itself in the
wall opposite.
The storm seems to have originated in
the far west, as portions of Dakota, lowa,
anl Nebraska were storia swept 'he niifht
before and to have extended to the At
lantic coast as. New York, Philadelphia,
and Baltnnor were a!l storm swept.
In Washington Go. the storm was
pecially severe, and immense damage was
done at sever?! points. Bridges were
swept away aud the crops 'eveled.
Near Cec ', a mivng and oil village
seven persons were drowued, and another
at Morganza in C'bartiers creek. The
seven persons were in a house on Miller's
Run, a small stream, bet-veen the hills
The lun suddenly rose and engjlled the
house*, and carried it down stream to a
bii-lg<- where it was smashed to pieces and
7of the 13 people in it drow jed. This
occurreJ Monday Digbt.
Changing the Shenango.
Pittsburg Post.
The work of changing the grades aad

Shenango it Lake Erie, north of Butler,
is one of great magnitude and exoenso,
and already a large army of m m are em
ployed at different points between Mercer
Junction and Swanvi'le. At Shenango a
very expensive excavation 3,000 feet long
and more .ban 30 feet w ide is baing made,
and this is now about half completed. It
is the intention to turn the Shenango
river lroni its present channel into this
anilicial channel and use the old bed ol

himself to some small article* ne lancied;
I was discovered, chased, and apon his re
■ faea! to stop, was shot dead by a police
man There is nothing particularly re
markatle about that, hut at the inquest
next day it was developed that Auth was
an employee otjthe Westinghouse Co. and
had been for seven years; th.it he was a
competent, reliable, conscientious work
man. who made good wages and worked
over time when asked to do so; that he

on a tree, and Mr. Anderson, who had his
riflt» with htm. took aim and shot one of
the hawks. The other attei. pted to lly
away with its harden, bat was compelled
to drop the latter, and the dead hawk and
the object it had been carryng dropped to
the earth. The two men went up to the
dead hawk and foand a black snake,
which measured six feet and nine inches
in length, It was still alive, bat hardly

was of unusual size, and measured five
feet aud eight inches from tip to tip of

swollen and spotted from bis neck to the
hip, and doubts were entertained of his
recovery.
The largest rattlesnake that has beeu
seen in the neighborhood of Oil City for
many years was killed b) Mrs. Lewis aud

of the club. Each girl went into a corner

The result of the vote was that there
wero nine votes cast, each girl receiving
one The man remains a bachelor, the
club is broken up, and the girls are mortal
enemies, united in the one determination
that they w ill not spaak to the man again.

Richards h-is been appointed to take tin

yesterday the office was traaßfetred to the
new official.
Mrs. Wekler has a daughter, Annie,
aged 17. The correspondence which part
ed between a young womau of the town
and a well-know a young man aroused An
rie's curiosity to an i r .-eßißtable pitch, and
sh«j opened their letters. Bhe kept on

was making a business of reading pretty
much a'l the private correspondence of the
young folks that passed through the of
fice, sealing up the letters again l'ke a
good, carefpl girl. Money was placed in
one of the letters to tempt Annie, bat ahe
simply opened the lettor, read it and seal
ed it again without taxing a cent. She is
an honest girl, and therefore would not
take that which did not belong to her.
But her mamma was removed.

The Yellow Stone Park is one of the
most wonderfully attractive regions of the
world. Its beauties of scenery, tho w ;l d
g.audenr of its mopotaina and canons,
compel the admiration of every visitor,
while its phenomenal geysers and curioas
mincralogical formations make it a rich
field tor the investigation of the scientist.

order that the natural drsire to visit it
may be accomplished in the most satisfac
tory manner the Pennsylvania Uailroad

a period of sixteen days, leaving New
York and Philadelphia, Thursday, August

As the tour w ! 'l be ran under the per
sonally-conducted tourist system inau
gurated by the above named company, it
is hardly necessary to give the assurance
that it will be arranged in the most com
plete manner. It might be well to state,
however, that no other means of seeing
the park thoroughly is oomparab'e to that
afforded by a well-ordered personally-con
ducted tour.
A special train, cor*ist ; ag of a di iing,
Pullman vestibule drawing-room s'eeping,
compartment, and observation cr's, which
will be the best that can be secrred, will
