VOL. VIII. NO. 22,
RAVAGES OF A STORM
DEATH AND FIRE CAUSED BY THE
LIGHTNING FLASHES.
:i
An Electrical Storm of Unexceptional
Severity Panned Over Town On Monday
Evening—Thou. Waters Killed at High
land and llerner's Store Set on Fire.
At 0.30 o'clock on Friday evening
Freeland and vicinity received a visit
from the most severe electrical storm
tiiat lias struck town in many a year.
The lightning flashes were sharp and
blinding, and the thunder crashed al
most incessantly for half an hour. It
then abated somewhat, but continued
at intervals until after 12 o'clock. While
the storm was at its height the residence
of William Higgins, at Ridge and Main
streets, was struck by lightning. The
bolt hit the house on the edge of the
roof, but fortunately little of its effect
was felt by the residents, who were onl\
slightly shocked. The shingles, weathei
boards and spouting were stripped off
and about SSO worth of damage resulted.
About the same time time the light
ning utas causing much trouble in the
power house of the Electric Light Com
pany. The incandesce nt circuit was de
ranged, and stores and residences on
that system were plunged in darkness.
The two arc circuits were severely crip
pled, and the lamps gave but a flicker
ing light. There was little light in town
when tin', lire bell rang, but by an extra
effort to set things right the company's
"mployes got the light going again.
Traffic on the Freeland branch of tin
electric road had to be suspended until
the storm's force was spent.
FIERCE FIRE SUBDUED.
Tho character of the storm led many
to believe that lire would occur some
where in town before the disturbed ele
ments were calmed, and when the gong
struck at 10.20 o'clock It was no great
surprise. The lire had been discovered
in .1. C. llerner's store at Washington
and South streets, and had a good start
when noticed. When the lire company
arrived the flames were blazing furiously
about the elevator shaft, near the South
street entrance of tho store, and for
awhile it had every appearance of a dis
nstrous conflagration. The doors were
then closed to prevent a draught from
entering until the water was turned on.
At the time the town was in total
darkness, and this, with the misapplied
energy of well-intentioned outsiders, de
layed the liremen longer than is usually
tho case. The loss of a set of tools for
tho plugs in running to tho lire also
hampered them. The water, however,
was finally turned on, and the heavy
streams soon put an end to the flames.
A large amount of stock was damaged
by the lire and water, and the"loss Is es
timated at from SBOO to SI,OOO. Mr.
Horner had the stock partially insured.
THE ORIGIN A MYSTERY.
The origin of the lire is somewhat of a
mystery. That it was caused by the
lightning in some manner is conceded,
a*thcrc was no lire or combustible goods
in the building. The store is fitted
throughout wit h electric lights, and it is
alleged that the lightning, when coming
I over the wires, met with some part
| that was imperfectly insulated and ig
nited the woodwork.
The incandescent circuit was not
working at the time, having boon dis
abled half an hour before, and the elec
tricians claim the lightning must have
entered in some manner other than over
the light wires. In the absence of an
official investigation tho cause will not
probably be ascertained.
AN OI.I) MAN KILLED.
At Highland tho storm was also felt
severely, and one life was taken in that
town by the lightning. Thomas Waters,
aged about flo years, was sitting with
his family in the front room of their
dwelling. He had placed his chair a
short distance from an open window,
and was sitting with his head tilted back
against tho wall. One flash more blind
ing others was noticed by the
occupants of the room. None of them
felt a shock of any kind, but the old
man was seen to sit perfectly still and
quiet, with his eyes closed.
Failing to reply when spoken to. one
of tho family touched Mr. Waters and
horrified to find a corpse in the
chair. Deatli had been instantaneous,
and claimed its victim bef.oro lie had
time to utter a cry or speak a word. An
examination of the body revealed a
small burned spot at the base of the
head, whore lie iiad boon resting against
the wall of the building.
The building outside had been struck
and slightly damaged. The current had
passed down the side near tho place
where Mr. Waters was sitting, and came
though the wall and entered his body
without the slighest noise.

at Drifton on Monday afternoon in ac
cordance with the arrangements an

at 1.15 p. m. the funeral cortege left the

Five employes of the Lehigh Valley

Quay's interest was the cause. Yester

POLITICAL RESUME.
Some of tlie Talk That Is Going Around
About Next Year's Elections.
As soon as the county election is out
of tho way there promises to be some
interesting contests for nominations foi
the February election. Tho poor direc
torship fight lias already opened, and
on tho Republican side it looks Hk<
a scramble to get the plum. Gilbert
Smith, of Highland, and I)r. "Tom"
Howell, of llazleton. arc in the field,
while Sandy Monroe, also of llazleton
is being strongly urged to get in tin
race by his friends, who assure him of v
rcnomination.
On the Democratic side F. I\ Malloy,
of town, lias the nomination to himself
so far, and is doing some quiet and ef
fective caffvassiug. Any attempt t<
beat him for the nomination will result
in nothing but to show bow strongly In
lias built ids fences in tho district. IB
lias confidence in his ability to carry tin
day when the election is held.
For tho representative nomination
next year there is some talk on both
sides. Representative Jeffrey lias indi
rectly announced himself, Reese Lloyd,
of Freeland, is spoken of, as are als<
C. L. Wilde and W. L. Powell, of llazle
ton. Republican candidates are like!)
to be plentiful, but the Democrats, as
usual, will make tho winner work hard
to get there. Daniel Hriehoff and Matt
Long, both of llazleton, are mentioned
for the honor, and either would run well
on the North Side, providing llazleton
Democrats do what is expected of them
in the coming election with Froeiand's
candidate for recorder, Mr. Maloy.
In the borough there are three candi
dates training for the squireship on the
Democratic ticket. Constable Quigley.
ex-Squire Myers and Hugh Sliovlin are
feeling their way for delegates. The
opponent of the Democratic nominee
will In all probability be Justice Lewis,
who was appointed recently by tlio gov
ernor to (ill the unexpired term of Squire
Stroll.
For constable Patrick Welsh will make
an effort to capture that position. No
other applicants have been heard of.
Councilmanic candidates will be nu
merous, if all rumors are true. Several
are trying to read the future, but none
have yet launched their booms. Among
those mentioned who would make strong
candidates for tho ticket aro Condy O.
Doyle. P. 11. Ilanlon, C. I). Rohrbach.
Neal Gara, Charles Dushock, William
Gallagher, M. Halpln, J. J. Ward and
John Shigo. It is said that four will be
elected next veal'.
On the school board tho terms of
Directors Welsh and Shelliamer expire in
June. Tho former may again be a can
didate. Others talked of for the Demo
cratic ticket are Charles Moerschbacher.
J. P. McDonald, Alex. Mulhearn, P. C.
Miller and Hernard Boyle.
In Foster there is hut little talk on
either side. The Democrats are over
whelmingly in tho minority, and only by
chance can any of them slip into an of
fice. The organization that runs the
other party there has not given out its
ticket to the public.
In Ila/.le there is one candidate an
nounced. John Mohan, of Joddo, who is
in the field for supervisor. He intends
to make the coutset an interesting one
if opposition appears. Through sickness
he has been unable to work for the past
fourteen months, and cannot re-enter
the mines for another year. Mr. Mo
han's friends in the township are numer
ous and his nomination is looked upon
as a sure thing.
Kittiu ItlioadiiH Once More.
Miss Kittie Khoadns will open a
week's engagement at the opera house
on Monday evening next in a series of
dramas, comedies, etc. Miss Uhoadcs is
an actress above tho ordinary repertoire
act resses. She is a lady that lias acquir
ed her reputation by years of hard work.
She is well-known hero, having played
bore before. She stages all her own
plays, conducts ail rehearsals in person.

a brilliant political future was opening
up before Mr. Beamish ho was thrown
violently from his carriage by a spirited
horse and since that time had not taken
a very active part in politics or busi
ness affairs. Mr. Beamish was born in

platform was adopted, and an aggressive
campaign decided upon.
There is more catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For a great many years doctors pro
nounced it a local disease, and prescrib
ed local remedies, and by constantly
failing to cure with local treatment, pro
nounced it incurable. Science has
proven catarrh to be a constitutional
disease and therefore requires constitu
tional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional
cure on the market, it is taken in
ternally in doses from ten drops to a
teaspoonful. It acts directly on the
blood and mucous surfaces of the sys
tem. They offer one hundred dollars
for any case it fails to cure. Send for
circulars and testimonials. Address.

Almost a Riot.
An organ grinder ground out "After
the Ball" on Tuesday afternoon and by
the merest chance escaped from a mob
that was gathering to do him harm for
the mental anguish that his machine
was causing. The leader of the crowd,
just as a rush was to he made upon the
swarthy son of Italy, glanced at olsho's
show windows and was so astonished at
the prices marked on the new fall hats
that lie stopped and had to buy one there
and then. The assortment was so largo
that by the time a choice was made his
temper had cooled and lie was even
pleased when the organ struck up,
"Where Did You Get That Ilat."
