SUMMIT, Car., Sept. 6.—One of the fiercest storms in years has prevailed in this vicinity during the past two days. Considering the season, its coming was remarkable. Rain has fallen in torrents at close intervals, followed by a most beautiful electrical display. The moun- tains, as far as the eye could see, have been lighted up, the deep canyons re- sembling seas of fire, while the thunder echoes were enough to frighten the bravest. A telegraph operator at Cascade was tbis afternoon knocked from his chair and severely burned by lightning striking a switchboard, which rebounded, striking full in the face. mountaineers prognosticate an early | am Jacous, a veteran | man, who has made | this place his home for more than a score of yea aid to-day: “I kno this mou tain as well as any livi snow is mot piled mou lightning and thunder mea hi and that something is a genuine Sies winter.” The scattering which the st among tourists camped h general. Rain soaked th tents, drenchi es, baggage, proyisions and all. Who were ex- periencing their first pleasures of moun- tain life were frightened almost to death by the electrical display. —_— PACIFIC GROVE'S ASSEMBLY, Keligious Session Ficld by the Itinerants’ Club Students.
