I Jcza 19.—A thunder cloud passed over I
Dawson yesterday evening a little after 41
o'clock. It waa very heavily charged with
electricity, and discharged shaft after shaft
for an hour or more. The lightning waa
severe and the thunder terrific. The only
damage heard of waa the destruction of |
Messrs, donee A Milton's grain bouse, two
miles soath of Dawson, by being fired
from the lightning. It contained several
thousand pounds of unthreshed oats, which
were wholly oou nmed with the buildings.
At another place five bogs were killed near
a tree that was struck. The rain was
bountiful aud much needed.

Juxb 29.—The amateurs and members of
Ute brass band of this place rendered the
"Pirates of Penzance” in the chapel of
Gordon IosUtute to an audience of about
four hundred, with the following oast of
characters:
Richard, a pirate chief, W. A. Front;
Samuel, his lieutenant, J. C. Blalock;
Frederic, a pirate apprentloe, C. T. Ty|#rj
Major-General Stanley, of the British
army. T. E. Murphy;j Edward, a sergeant
of police, R. A. Stafford; Marti, General
Htauley’e youngest daughter, Miss Nannie
Howard: tJile. Mist Alice Rookwell; Edith,
Mies Minnie Tyler; Isabel, Ml** Kate

work. Miss Ora Blalo k; Gen. Stanley's
daughter*, pirates, polio#men, cto.
Professor Guttenberger acted m director
and foreished the music, with the assist
ance or Mbs Kate Chamber.-*, Mr. O. B.
Higgins ard Mr. OtU Morph#/.
The performance altogether waa the best
on* I ever saw by amateurs. Mr. W. A.
Front as the "Pirate King,:’ Mr. C. T. Ty
ler, as "Frederick.” a pirate apprentice.
Gol. T. K. Murphy, as "Major-Gcneroil
Btaoley," and MUs: »ra Blalock as "Ruth,"
1 piratical maid-of-idl-work, sosi ' *
toir re«t>ectlve characters admirably.
The only drawback to the performance
was that some of the character* did not
appear old enough for their parts. Gol.
T.E. Murphy needed tome artificial aid
to enable him to look the Major-General
with "eleven marriageable daughters—all
handsome,” and Miss Ora Blalock, one o
like's prettiest dnughtcr^aa Hath, needed
more defacing than I hope father Time
will givo her in a score and a half of years,
