Lightning Kills Horses.

Lightning killed three horses be-
longing to Bert Halling last Thurs
day and came very near causing the
death of the owner. Mr.. Halllng
is now confined to his bed from the
effacts of the bolt.
As the storm approached last
Thursday he was working in the
field and drove the horses TO the
barn to shelter them and he too
stood in the barn from the rain. He
stood between two of the horses
and the deadly bolt came through
the open door striking down all of
the horses killing them instantly,
and Mr.. Halling was knocked down
and unconscious. 1t was one OF
the strange pranks of that fluid as
it killed the three animals and only
injured Mr.. Halling who was stand
ing between two of the horses with
one hand on each. Mr.. Halllng is
now confined to his bed where he
will remain for a few days.

Pocatello will not let the Arbon
valley trade come to American Falls
Wltnout last strenuous effort to
again turn it their way and since
the building of the better roads
from that section to American Falls
the trade has been coming this
way instead of going to Pocatello,
the distance being several miles

In speaking of the matter the Triz,

| American Falls is making a
strong effort to divert the trade of
the fertile Bannock valley from Po-
catello to the Power City. Bannock
valley, also known as Arbon valley,
produces thousands of bushels of
grain. Most of this grain during
years past has been hauled to Mi
chaud siding and the greater part
OF the trade has come to the Gate
City instead of American Falls. This
mas been due to the fact that a
republican board of county commits
Sloners a few years ago spent a
considerable sum of money in build
Ing splendid road over the Mink
creek divide tapping the Rattle
