On Monday evening eight head of cat
tle belonging to W. J. towards were
killed by lightning in his pasture about
one mile from the town of Mayville, and
eicht miles from Fossil. Seven head of
the cattle, four cows and three calves,
were found lying dead together, one in
front of the other, alonsside 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 tbe 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
$125.
This unusual occurrence created a
great deal of interest and surprise in
Mayville and surrounding country, as
fatalities from lightning were hitherto
unknown in Gilliam county, and seldom
occur in the state. Fossil Journal.

Indigeston is often taken for con
sumption. Tbe word consumptoin
means wasting away, and dyspeptics
often waste away as badly as consump
tives. The reason people waste away is be
cause either they don't get enough to
eat, or they don't digest what they do
eat.
If the latter is your trouble, take

Something to Know.

that the very best medicine for restoring
tbe tired out nervous system to a healthy
vigor is Electric Bitters. This medicine
is purely vegetable, acts by giving tone
to the nerve centres in the stomach,
gently stimulates tbe Liver and Kidneys,
and aids these organs in throwing off
impurities in the blood. Electric Bit
ters improves the appetite, aids diges
tion and ia pronounced by those who
have tried it as the very best blood puri
fier and nerve tonic. Try it. Sold for
