DAMAGED BY LIGHTNING.

Lightning struck the barn of T. F. Dunlap near Surrey, Monday, doing slight damage. The barn of Mrs. Laura Michaels’just south of town, was also struck, and the barn on Mrs. E. J. Morris’ farm in Jordan tp. Probably $lO will cover the damage in any of the cases, as none were set on fire. The barn on the S. H. Howe farm, on the north side of the road on the White county line in Hanging Grove tp., was struck by Ightning Monday afernoon but not badly damaged, the building not igniting. A little girl that was in the barn at the time and a horse were knocked down by the shock, but a boy standing in a doorway near the horse was not affected at all.
