A Thunder Storm in the Oil Regions.

A Lima, Ohio, correspondent of the Rochester Tribune tlnss describes an oil fire after a thunder a storm: On Sunday Inorning, May Ist, a thunder storm passed over this section of this country, and, after it was over, we looked to the south and saw an ojl tank burning. Further to the north, the derrick of a 200 barrel flowing well was struck and burned to the ground and the flowing oil set on fire. Just about half way between was to be seen a dense black smoke arising in the air. It was soon to be seen that one of the Buckeye Pipe Line’s large tanks had suffered a stroke of lightning. It was not long until they had their men on the ground at work, building an embankment of about 400 feet in diameter, around thb tank to prevent the-oil from getting [in amongst other tanks of which there are 36 close together. The embankments are made about three feet high/and as soon as they are completed, which takes several hours, th'ey fire a cannon ball into one of the lower rims of the tank. Just as they shot the tank, the oil had come to a boiling temperature, and the oil was forced over the top of the tank. The oil on the ground was thus ignited and the contents of a 3,soo'oaHel tank was floating in the resevoir, around the tank, in a mass of flames, _ u _ • J Straw hats at Hemphll & Henon’s.

One of the Most Valuable Discoveries of the 19th Century.

I have been afflicted with iheumatism twenty years. For the last ten yehrs have been obliged to use crutches. Often my left hip ahd knee ivould entirely give out. Have expended a large amount of money for remedies recommended as a cure for that terrible disease; have used the most powerful liniments on my hip and knde to sodthe the pain, that I might get a little sleep. My hip and knee had lost nearly all strength by the use of the liniments, and 1 could get no help. I saw an advertisement of Hibbaril’s Rheumatic Syrup, ordered half a do2en bottles, took them and received some relief, and ordered another dozen. Have taken seven of the last dozen, and I am happy ip saying that 1 know I am being cured. Have not used any liniments since I commenced Taking your syrup. When I began taking your syrup I could not take a step without the use of a cane; neither could I turn myself in bed without aid; can now turn in bed without any trouble; can walk about my house and office without the use of my cane. Often losing track of it, for the reason that when I take a long walk, I take it it along. My office is four blocks from my house; I have not walked to or from it over a year until last Thursday, a week. Since that time I have walked to and from it every day, except Sunday. I am truly rejoicing that I am fast being relieved from such a terrible affliction. -/ Wishing that I might herald to all who are afflicted with disease the merits of your wonderful med-' icine, 1 write you of the benefits which I have derived from its/pse. Send me one-half dozen bottles syrup and one-third dozen plasters by express, C. O. D. This I want for a friend in the northern part of this county. He is a great suf--ferer with rheumatism. Very Truly,
