LIGHTING KILLS FOUR STEERS
Oklahoma Man Loses His Beef in
Eeayy storm.

Guthrie. 0. T., August 15.-J. S. Mckee,
who lives in the northern part of Okla
homa county, lost four large steers by
lightning, in the recent storms. From
the way they lay they were evidently
running when they fell in their tracks.
They were from two to five rods from the
fence, so did not get the shock from that
source. The only sign OF a wound on
them was burnt hair on the tail Of one
steer. From the tracks, Mr.. Mckee judges
that they were not with the big bunch Of
cattle. If the herd had been there the
loss would probably have been much
heavier.
D. Z. Cole reports the loss Of a valuable
COW by lightning, on the same night.
