At about 6:30 p. m. Tuesday, a bolt •truck between the Louis Smith and George P. Freund homes on Green Itrect T* wtw*' *Ho Smith basement through the meter box, just as Mr. Smith was about to enter the room. He relates that the whole basement was illuminated and that he was too close to the flash for comfort. However, only one electric wire was snapped off and this was quickly repaired to prevent further damage. The same bolt entered the George "Freund home through their telephone, putting it out of order for a few days. Later in the evening, at about 10:30, when the rain began to come down ttl torrents, a more serious accident occurred at the Anthony Freund farm, located at Smith's corners, near Mc- Collom Lake. Bolt Falls in Field 4lie Freund family saw a targe boh df lightning fall into the pasture where their twenty-four head of prize Holsteias were feeding, but they thought that it could do no damage. On the following morning, when the hired man went to get the cows into the barn for milking, he found six of tbem dead underneath the large tree fa the pasture, the only tree to be ->etn within several rods. Beeing their bloatpd bodies, he thought that perhaps they had gotten into the corn, tot upon closer examination of the tree, he saw that it had been stripped «f its bark by the lightning. It is a coincidence too, that Mr. Ffceund had attended the funeral for bis mother. Mrs. Hubert Freund, in McHenry that same morning, Tuesand then awoke on the following Horning to realise this second loss.

"""'J A coroner's jury last Friday morn ing returned a verdict of suicidal death at the inquest for Mrs. William B. Temple, whose body was found on her-thirty-four acre farm in Bull Valley last Thursday morning. Mr. Temple found the body of his wealthy heiress wife in a ravine on their farm, a quarter of a mile from the farm bungalow, after a short search. Mrs. Temple shot herself through the hea4> having discharged a 25 caliber revolver which was found beside the body. During the inquest, conducted by County Coroner Harry E. Shorn, con sideraMe evidence was introduced by her husband and a maid, Mrs. Bessie Dwyer, which told that the well known Bull Valley woman bad suffered great ly during the past months, and "which made her very despondent." They said she became despondent over a suit filed for her nephew, "by a lawyer," and this probably caused her to commit the act. Most startling testimony of the in quest came when Mrs. Dwyer related her story on the stand. She testified of an arousing fear, "because Mrs. Temple had asked my husband how to load a gun." Further in her testimony she told of asking Mr. Temple to begin a search for his wife. "While Mr. Temple was saddling a horse, I heard something like a shot. I thought it was a door slamming in the barn," she said. The time was abofkt 11:30 a. m. Mrs. Temple's body was discovered shortly after this in a ravine just off a trotting path in a dense woods. A shot had pierced her head, entering the right side. The sheriff's office was notified of the finding of the body at 11:40 a. m. Both the sheriff's office and the coroner dismissed theories of possible homicide on the grounds of finding no powder marks on Mrs. Temple's head due to the modern gun and bullet which killed her. Fingerprints found on Ob gua. conoeponded with those of Mrs. Temple, according to Deputy C. C. Mines, who investigated for the AstMCi otfior Mrs. Dwyer alao testified that "lately ahe said she didn't care to live." Funeral seivisea were held Saturday afternon at 3 p. m. from the Thomas B. Merwin funeral home. Basmua Bassrassen, a reader from the Christian Science church, conducted the services. Interment was in Oakland cemetery, Woodstock. * RURAL MAIL MEN - ACTING AS AGENTS FOR DEFENSE STAMPS Thirty-two thousand rural mail carriers are now acting as agents in the sale of' Defense Savings Stamps, postal officials have informed the Treasury Department. Demand for the stamps in sparsely settled districts caused the Post Office Department to authorise the carriers to act as salesmen. The stamps range in value from ten oent* to five Mian. Purchasers are given albums in which they can be mounted. When filled, the albums may be exchanged for Defense Savings Bonds. , Post Office officials recalled that rural mail carriers acted in similar opacities in 1917 and 1918 selling War Saving Stamps. . - • MMMB THE COURT HOUSE TWO PABOLBBB Deputy Shaittr Harold E.

Dady to recall the grand jury for duty next Monday at which time he will present evidence to the murder charge against Richard Wesolik. State's Attorney Carroll's move is evident that speedy action will be taken against the young 8t. Charles parolee.
