by hunters, black bear weighing 40C
pounds struck squarely on a hound
valued at $500, killing the animal in

The incident was the result of an
hours chase, in which several farmers,

herds by bears, took part.
Warned by the barking hounds that
he was in danger, bruin took refuge in

rifles into the tree-top.
Pierced by several bullets, the ami
NAL released its hold and crashed
through the branches to the ground.
One Of the hounds, eager to seize the
bear, rushed in, but misjudged the dis
tance and received the full impact OF
the animals weight.

heavy thunderstorm was raging.
Goree was standing In the door
watching the storm and his wife was
standing close by his side. Lightning
struck the top Of the house, ran down
and struck Goree in the head, killing
him instantly. Mrs. Goree was also
badly shocked.
The lightning that killed Goree
photographed him and his wife and a

they were standing. In the picture Mr..
Goree is seen smoking a pipe and his
head is turned slightly upward, as if
he is watching the cloud. Mrs Goree's

of speaking. Bushes in the yard, the
front fence and two telephone poles
are plainly seen in the picture, as are
also house and a skirt of woods fully
quarter of a mile away.
No one will rent the place, as the
