LIGHTNING L FLASHES.

More of lightniDe's pranks have come 10 our notice. During Tuesdays storm when lightning struck tree in Mrs Winders' yard, the lightning also visited the lower end of town and at leest will te foFcibly recGli- ei ty John Martin who believes he lad a very narrow escape. Mir. Mar den was in the act Of feeding his horse when suddenly a binding flash oi lightning apica:cd to flare up directly in front of him followed immediately by a terrific thundeIclan, and then all was silent for few seconds. When Mr. Warden recovered he found him sell iu the manager and seen his horse completely thrown eff her feet ard lying on the ground. Fortunately, and strange 10 relate, no other injury further than being stunned and thus uncerimoniously handled were sus- tsined by either MT. Warden or his animal. He is Of the opinion thtt the lightning must have struck near ty.
 Judge Duncan also experienced a gentle tap from the tail end of a fash of lightning the same day. He was stunned tito ard although he was not transported bodily to the back of his yard or to kiondyke, Lo assures us lie feels that way. Since tie occur renee his neck became stiff and the nigh. side of his heed sore. The judge, by careful ttestalent and ar plying lotions has recovered consider ably and the soreness and stiffness gradually disappearing
