Pebkasie, Pa. — There was a very se- 

 vere wind storm here Au^st 10, which 

 demolished the greenhouse of J, H. 

 Werst. The structure was 40x200 and 

 seventeen feet to the ridge, used for forc- 

 ing tomatoes. The proprietor is a hard- 

 working man who stands high in the 

 community. He has the sympathy of all 

 his neighbors in the loss which he has 

 sustained.
