Cattle Killed by Lightning.
On Monday evening eight head of cat
tle belonging to W. J. Edwards were
killed by lightning in his pasture about
one mile from the town of Mayvillfc, and
eight miles from Fossil. Seven head of
the cattle, four cows and three calvee,
were found lying dead together, one in
front of the other, alongside 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 the 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 eixty
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.

ENERGY SADLY WASTED.
A Calculating Barber's Astonishing
Flgnrei of a Bicycle Century Ran.
Snyder, the. calculating- barber, was
talking about cycling-, and was holding
forth upon the energy expended by
women in making century runs, says
the Philadelphia Record. "I have done
ia little figTiring on the subject," he re
marked, "and the result is most surpris-dng-.
"Take a woman who weighs 120
pounds and who rides a wheel weigh
ing 20 pounds. In riding- 100 miles I
Jiave calculated that a power of more
than 3,000,000 pounds of energy, or
about 100 horse-power, has been
brought into play.. And to think that
all this has been expended in riding a
bicycle.
"Had the woman directed this energy
iu running- a sewing machine, where
a force of two pounds will run a needJe
over a piece of cloth for a distance of a
foot, she could have hemmed a piece of
muslin about 1,500,000 feet, or nearly
300 miles long.
"The same amount of energy used to
propel a baby carriage weighing- 10
pounds, containing a baby weighing 12
pounds more, would send, the young
ster 500 miles. The same amount of
energy expended in churning- would
produce 30 tons, of butter, or would,
push a carpet sweeper over an area of
250.000 square feet.
"The woman also could have ironed,
without any more fatigue, a strip of
muslin one foot wide and 210 miles long.
And if she had been shopping, just
think of all the bargain counters she
could have walked' around.. I tell you,
it's astonishing. Bay rum or witch
hazel, sir?"
f A wiln beer Blew In Ills Face.
ik gentleman who was fishing- on
Seventh Lake, N. Y., a few days ago
became tired and sleepy. So he an
chored his boat near the shore in a
shady spot and lay down in the bottom
ior a nap. After awhile he was awak
ened by something blowing- upon his
face, and when he opened his eyes he
saw a big- buck standing to his 'belly
in the water beside the .boat and with
his nose close to the "fisherman's face.
The gentleman lay quite still, rather
enjoying "the situation. Albout that
time another boat came around the
corner into the little cove, and the buck
with a bound disappeared.inithewoodg.
Embarrasses No One.
For all her incomparable dignity of
deportment there is somefhing homely
and gentle albout the queen of England.
"I don't know how it is," remarked one
of her great officers not long ago, "I'm
.such a shy man, and really to chatwith
some princess embarrasses me. But
as soon as 'I see the queen all -shjTiess
vanishes. "Why,! she's as easy to talk
with as your own or anybody's mother!
No one can feel shy of the queen, and,
what is more, it would vex her if they
did."
