Apart from & severe scorching, the driver, Joseph Lutz of Easton, Pa., was uninjured by his thrilling ride, and the fireman suf- fered only minor bruises from the fiying debris. The locomotive was hauling the Easton express on the Central raiiroad of New Jersey and had just begun the descent of Pickerel mountain when Lutz heard some- | thing snap, and & moment later saw the { immense rod of steel lashing the air.

Wilh violent volleys of thunder and blinding flashes of lightning the electrical storm played over the towns of Afton, Thayer and Athens, located within a radius of ten miles. One of the strokes set fire to the Biattly Lumber company's yards at Afton and. im its total destruction, caused a damage of 5,000, of which $7.000 is covered by insur- ance. When a flash fell upon the Burlington telegraph wire between Afton and Thay the cperators at both stations, who hap- pened to be seated at their instruments sending messages, were thrown across their station by the shock. Charles Sennet was the operator at Afton and Edward W. Morrison the one at Thayer. Neither man was serfously injured. Several boys narrowly missed death while hiding from the storm's fury in the barn of Farmer W. 8. Simpson, a mile west of Afton, when the lghtning struck the barn. The bolt tore one end of the bullding clear off and Jiberated four horses and 1@ pigs which also were under its shelter.

A few minutes after he had smilingly greeted three boys who were bathing In the river, an unidentified man disappeared from sight i0 the waters of ihe Misspusl at Atlas street, southeast of Riverview park, yester- day evening at 5:3. The three boys were Frank Bronk, 38 South Seventeenth street; Marion Kirk, 1451 Phelps street, and Lewis Nargard, South Sixteenth street. They toid Captain Dunn that the man undressed and, walking out about thirty feet from the shore, immediately sank. He came up twice after that.

PLANNING COUNTRY LIFE SCHOOL Suggestio Formuluted by a State Commission. The country life commission appointed by the governor of the state of Washington has outlined plans for a model country il school and community center which is to be established near Spokane as an experi- ment. The plans eall for ten acres of ground, a consolidated rural school, a com- munity hall, a cottage for the teacher, ample play ground and space for practigal work in agriculture. The school is designed to serve an area of thirty-six squ miles, the most distant point being three miles. The school house is to be “homey” in appearance, as well as modern and sani- tary, » building erected within the means of the Qistrict and yet one to which the farmers and their wives and children will point with pride. This new type of schovihouse, says the commission’s report, shall be supplemented with a second bullding which shall contain a business office, library, hall, kitchen—a community hell that may be used for the meetings of farmers’ women's country clubs’and for general and social gatherings of all kinds, being pro- to get from a man who had gone down vided with & kitchen and other convenient furnishings, including fittings by which lectures with lantern slides may be give: as well as some gymnasium apparatus. As a library this community ball should contain, besides the usual books in school Iibraries, information now in possession of | the national department of agriculture and the state experiment stations. This infor. mation should be arranged so that it can be easily obtained by any of the farmers of the district. There should also be collected here agricultural papers on file, and any other local or general information | which may be of value to the patrons of the school, as well as to the scholars them- selves. As a business office there should be collected in the community hall @ Mst of what s being grown for market in the district, 8o that those desiring to purchase any of these products can learn by tele- phone the kinds and qualities to be ob- tained in the district, us live stock, fruit, grain or vegetables. A third bullding demanded by the coun- try life school is & home for the prineipal of the sechool, & home that can serve as & model to the average teacher. Primarily, the purpose of the school is for Lhe average boy—obe of the ninety-five out of every 100—whose Institutional edu- cation, ends even before he has finished the secondary schoul. He goes on to the farm, into the shop or to the office, while the exceptional boy—five out of every 100 —goes through the high school, and if he is more exceptional—one or two in 10— he enters a college and studies to become = physiclan, a lawyer, & minister, an en- gineer or a soldier, The community center is to be beautiful without being made oruate, and no saloon, store, shop or other commercial institu- tion can be located within half a mile of its boundiries.
