Cattle Killed by Lightning.

On Monday evening eight head of cat
tie belonging to w. j. Edwards were
killed by lightning in his pasture about
one mile from the town of Mayville, and
eight miles from Fossil. Seven head of
the cattle, four cows and three calves,
were found lying dead together, one in
front of the other, along side the barb
wire fence that encloses the field. They
had evidently been walking in single file
as close to the fence as they could get
when the thunderbolt struck them. Half
a mile distant, one calf was found dead
alone, also close to the fence. There
were no outward marks on the cattle to
indicate the cause of death, but for
nearly a mile the fence showed the
lightning's course, the wire being
twisted and many of the posts being
shattered and pulled out of the ground.
Across the county road, which is sixty
feet wide, Fred Moore's fence, which
with Mr.. Edwards fence forms a lane,
was also damaged in similar manner.
Mr.. Edwards loss is estimated at about
$l25.
This unusual occurrence created
great deal of interest and surprise in
Mayville and surrounding country, as
fatalities from lightning we're hitherto
unknown in Gillian county, and seldom
occur in the state.-Fossil Journal.

a vvlIG Deer blew in His Face.

A gentleman who was d1shing op
Seventh Lake, N. Y, a few days ago
became tired and sleepy. So he an
chored his boat near the shore in q
shady spot and lay down in the bottom
for nap. After awhile he was awak-
ened by something blowing upon his
face, and when he opened his eyes he
saw a big buck standing to his belly
in the water beside the boat and with
his nose close to the fsherman's face.
The gentleman lay quite still, rather
enjoying the situation. About that
time another boat came around the
corner into the little cove, and the buck
with a bound disappeared in the woods.

JANE MEAD WEIGH GIVES A LECTURE on
COLONIAL HISTORY
Jane Mead WEIGH gave the first Of series OF lect-
ures on Colonial history yesterday afternoon al the
Waldorf her subject being What IL Colony?
1.-THE original idea OF colony" she said, was
a trading station. but when the thirteen colonies
came TO found colonies of their own they acted on
a very different principle for they learned in the
Revolutionary War that colony was something
more than a trading station.
The colonies Of the United States were never
treated as Ishmaeites or interiors. but were made
independent. sef-governing communities, and
though there those who question the wisdom OF
this policy. the American people have not yet suf-
fered from their new view
In speaking OF the statesmen OF the Revolutionary
times Miss WEIGH said that. though the United
States had produced great artists or musicians
no country had a more magnificent political litera-
ture.
The next lecture will be the battles OF Con-
cord Lexington and Bunker Hin. and Will be given
on Friday al the same hour and pace.
