Since lightning disabled the Raeford Power & Mfg. Co. plant more than a week ago, water is being pumped for the town by two tractors, and Monday night one of those started a fire. Mr. Starr McMillan, who was working about it, had his hands badly burned. The fire alarm was given and a crowd responded, but the damage was not great.
