Storm Saturday Night. A heavy rainfall Saturday and Sunday relieved the farmers from worry on that score for while at least. A severe electrical storm accompanied the downpour Saturday evening. Lightning struck the dwelling of David Hill at Milford, demolishing one end of the structure. Mrs. Hill who was in the room that was struck was severely shocked but otherwise uninjured. It is reported that David Miller, of near Bremen was killed by lightning, Saturday. A crack as loud as the report of a cannon aroused some frnm their slumbers early Sunday morning but we have not been informed of any damage in this immediate vicinity. Milford Stays Dry.

The course costs 750 dollars. Eight of our citizens have signed a contract with the Lincoln Chatauqua System thus placing themselves under obligation of time andi money, only with the motive of bringing to our people a clean uplifting high class entertainment, and with the iuther thought of establishing a Chatauqua here permanently, It will make Syracuse a more attractive place in which to live. There are many attractions of nature. The only thing needful is the interest of the citizens of the town and country and the summer residents at the lake to bring educational and social factors. It will be an opportunity for a week of rest, recreation, instruction and real enjoyment. The musical numbers are superb and the lectures and other numbers are well within the range of all.

The citizens of Syracuse who have guaranteed the success of a Chautauqua on behalf of the merchants of the town, met at the office of Butt & Xanders for the purpose of perfecting an organization to carry on the work of making the Chautauqua a success. The following officers were elected: President, C. C. Bachman, Vice-President, Dr. D.S. Hontz, Secretary, Geo, L. Xanders, Treasurer. John T. Riddle.

Letter From Mrs. Rielly May 29, 1912. Dear Editor I want to write to my home friends and tell them what a delightful place North Shore Health Resort is. I consider it an' ideal place for rest. I came here April twentieth, feeling pretty tired, nervous and very much" discouraged, i Yet our dear Doctor Hoy was very kind to me and always advised I must take a good rest before he could do any thing for me. He would say Mrs. Reilly you have too much ambition for your strength and I took good advice and started to look up some good resort for rest and I want to thank Dr. Hoy through these lines how grateful and thankful I am to him, and here I am at North Shore Health Resort regaining my health. It was very hard to for me to leave my dear home for I am very fond of it. However I was determined to get well and I want to tell all my friends what a beautiful place of rast this is. The treatments have done me so much good and any one who is suffering from nervous break down or any nervous diseases I can highly recommend the rest resort I have gained several pounds and now feel just like a different woman. After my sixth week of good massage and rest this resort is exactly as its name implies a health resort it is a place where those who are either run down physically or who is suffering from slight disorders or chronic diseases may regain health and strength. Its location is ideal for the comfort and convienence of its guests the surroundings are quiet and restful. The sanitarium is properly equipped with two good Doctors and a large force of trained nurses. Dr. William P. Forkin M. D. is an able physician with many years of experience, and with Dr. Forkin is an able woman physician a Miss Doctor White, the superintendent and manager. Mr. Whitaker is a very agreeable man the nurses and masseurs are the very best I can say that from my own experience and I want to say every room and all departments are very clean with sunshine and hygienic managements. I must not forget to mention the sanitary kitchen dining room, every thing you eat here is very clean and well seasoned the cook is an experienced cook who has cooked for all the guests doctors and nurses for the past eight years it is needless to say she is a good cook. Kind and courteous to all. It is located at Winetka, Illinois, a northern suberb of Chicago, 16 miles from the North Western rail road station in Chicago the ground bounded on the east by the beautiful sandy beach of Lake Michigan and on the west by the picturesque Sheridan drive. Expect to come home very soon feeling much better in health and in spirits. Will inclose picture of North Shore health resort Very truly Mrs. C. J. Rielly. New Industry.

LETTER WRITTEN BYJDAM JURAT To The Goshen Times, Describing Camp Life During The War. Below we print a letter written , by Adam Juday to the Goshen | Times. Washington, D. C., Aug. 28th 1861, Kalarama. Mr. Editor of the Times: It is the first time that I call your attention to my writing. Mr. Editor, las one of the guards of the nineteenth regiment Ind. vol. which is placed under Colonel Mo. Meredith I will inform you of Elkhart Co. especily the friends of Benton Town, how this reg. is situated. We are as a general thing healthy, and expecting every hour to get marching orders. Last night at about five o'clock we had orders to get ready in a half hour, for we had orders that we might have to march in an hour and such a time I never heard of, all the officers were engaged in getting their boys ready and all the boys were geting their things in order, some filling their canteens and some rolling up their blankets, and some getting their cartriges and some yelling and shouting and leaping for joy, and the sick was getting ready to go to. We have no futher orders yet we still remain here all ready to go, and waiting Friends of Indiana I hope that you will still remember your Country and that Star-spahgled banner, that waved over this great union and now is torn down in some places, but we hope that you will protect it in Ind. for we have the name off being the bloody hooshiers. Yesterday we were interviewed by Gen. King, and he said, that we were not so well drilled as some of his brigade but are fitting boys. He had great confidence in us for we are all stout and hearty looking boys Our Colonel is well satisfied with us, he says the only fear that he has is that he can’t keep us back if are getting on the secesshers, he is afraid that we will kill them all at once, and that is the way to do, march on to them till you see the white of their eyes and then shoot down the front rank and charge bayonets on the rear, and then it is all over and we can go home rejoicing I left home the 14th of July and walked to Goshen and there inquired about the soldiers, if there was any company there but there was not, then I thought that I would w alk to Elkhart and got to Elkhart: about five o'clock and there I met Lieutenant John Shafer and there I stayed till Monday 15th at six o'clock and then started for Indianapolis and there found the company of John R. Clark, which I joined and to day I am just as well satisfied as when we started. I left all mv relatives behind, my father, mo ther, brothers and sister, they lamented very much over my departure but who would not fight for his country which our forefathers fought for, who would not risk his life for his country which his father died and bled so that their cliildren might live in freedom and now our children are filling their places and our childrens children will fill our place in this world, but let freedoms flag wave over us. Mr. Adam Juday of Benton. Ind.
