Some one gave the dam at the lower end of Lake Pequanneha three charges of dynamite last Thursday night just after midnight which practically ruined it. Soane months ago some one, probably the same party or parties, blew a large hole in the middle of the dam with dynamite which had never been repaired. The charges. Thursday night deepened and widened this breech until it is not likely now that any attempt will be made to repair it. Various rumors are affoat as to who the „illty parties are but so far as we can learn nothing definite is known. —Ridgeville News.
