The severe electrical storm that visited Salisbury late last Thurs day afternoon, did considerable damage, and caused some scares. The residence of the late J. A. Mahaley at Council and Long streets, was struck by lightning, and several members of the fami ly were severely shocked. The roof took fire, but the flames were subdued, in time to present any serious damage. Mrs. Bradshaw's boarding house on North Main street was also a victim of a lightning stroke, and Mrs. Bradshaw received a se vere shock from which she has not yet fully recovered, The damage to the house was slight. The cars of the Salis .ury-Spen-cer line W3re put out of business, and it was not until Sunday that the cars resumed their usual trips. It was the worst storm of the kind that has visited Salisbury in some years. Budding anarchy, truckling sycophancy, of course mob-rule is to be condoned when permitted by a member of the rin. As to Obituary Notices. . We desire to say to out corres pondents, -and others, that we will be glad if, in future they will cut down, their obituary notices to a reasonable length, and the one in this issue signed "X" may be taken as a sample of what we mean by! a "reasonable length". We are glad to publish these mat ters provided they are not too long. We recognize fully the in terest tke-family and friends of the deceased may have in these notices, but they are not of in terest to many of our readers Often we have to leave out items of news to make room for notices of the nature referred to. Please make them shorter. For the Cream of the hews read The Watchman. $i. The Yellow Fever Germ has recently been discovered. It bears a c'ose resemblance to the malaria germ.

TPf"THIS IS A HORSE" ONCE there was a small boy who wrote "ThisisaHorse" after trying for hours to draw a copy on his slate of a thoroughbred racer. He admired the horse, wanted it, but had neither the ability nor the experience to get him. He therefore tried to draw one. Whenkis labors were complete, he looked first at the genuine article, then at the miserable imitation, and after long, deep stuy wrote THIS IS A HORSE, realizing his failure and inability to reproduce the remune, and he knew without "This is a Horse " written below, no one wov.IJ recognize what he had tried to make. Would-be competitors l ave tried for years to imitate Grape Tobacco. They make bia k plugs of similar size, but of less weight, ar.d put in it all sorts of various concoctions, mixtures and kinds of Tobacco, but all failed (to p-qt the business) and finally tit upon the small boy's plan, and printed on the tag "SOMEEODY'S SUN CURED." They all advertise and tell you that SOMEBODY'S SUN CURED tag- is valuable Cf ccurse it is (it cost about 15 cents per thousand) but how about the miserable imitation of Grape Tobacco the tagr is on? Somebody's Sun 0red tag no more makes cood Tobacco than does THIS 1.3 A HORSE makes a valuable genuine horse.
