In falling theVegro grasped at a ladder, striking it with his right arm, just above the wrist. The lick tore his hand almost off, breaking both bones. He also struck a plank, used as a kind of platform which was shattered. Anderson died almost instantly upon striking the floor. His right arm was broken just below, the shoulder, besides the wound above the wrist, the right side of his head was crushed in, and almost all his ribs broken. * Anderson was from Dahlonega and a good worker. A great many explanations are put forth his occupation and heeded not the storm until bis attention was called to it very ‘strikingly. A heavy bolt of lightning came speed ing through the air and finding a good place just above a large tree in thk col oners yard, exploded, sending smaller shocking bolts all over the phace—through the yard, in the house and all. about. Col. Findley was knocked to the floor as limp as a dishrag and was slightly stunned. During the same storm the the city authorities will hear from the Sewer company in regard to what they are willing to do. Major Ives expressed himself as being greatly pleased with the outlook. He says the city can be drained for something like $85,000. Sewers would be run with the wa ter mains, where, they would be of use. The average cost to a fam ily upon the completion of this system would be about $6 per an num and the benefits derived al most inestimable.

He may be a laborer himself, nevertheless he will fur nish work for others. Then, a part of these applicants are business men—-merchants, con tractors, &c. These men may not do the merchants, contractors, &c., any good, just now, but they cause more work and, consequently, more workmen. Now, what we need, is houses for these classes of people. Invest ments of this kind pay well and, with real estate values steadily in creasing, our citizens would do well to start a house-building cam paign. This would, of course, de mand more workmen, more con tractors and mqre merchants, and they would require more houses; and so the good work would go on until we should see our city going beyond her limits in her prosperi ty.
