During thestorm last Saturday
evening Mr. John Riddle and
two sons, near Begonia, narrow
ly escaped death from lightning.
Mr. Riddle was plowing in the
field with his sons George, Fred
and Robert near by. Quickly an
electrical storm gathered in the
sky, and there was one Hash af
ter another, with the sharp re
port of the violent electric dis
charge near by. At one of the
reports Robert, the oldest son,
saw his father, the horse and his
two brothers fall to the earth as
if shot. The horse struggled up
and dashed away panic stricken,
but the father and his two sons
did not move. Robert ran a
hundred yards to reach his fath
er. Fred, the older of the other
two, recovered himself and ran
to Geoi bout fourteen
years old, and found him stiff.
He carried his brother to the
house, where he remained dazed
for an hour or two. Mr. Riddle
was still lying prostrate when
Robert and his sisters reached
him, but did not seem to behurt.
In assisting his father to. get up
Robert noticed that he could rise
without assistance. When asked
why he did not get up sooner,
Mr. Rille answered, "I didn't
want to; felt too good." The
shock had apparently paralyzed
his power to start to get up, or
had benumbed him into a spoil
of comfort " . s !

A certain young man who
keeps books for a large company
which deals in horses and buggies
and who is quite popular in local
society went driving into the
country Wednesday afternoon,
late, lie did not show up Thurs
day morning and his friends be
gan to get anxious abouthim, as
he was driving a young and
spirited horse. About 9 o'clock
however, he came in safe and
sound but with a sleepy look in
his eye. His horse, which he had
left hitched near the gate, took
his departure without notifying
his master. After a night's
search he was found five miles
from the hitching post and is
now waiting for another drive
to the country.

He was going to Ball's Creek to

Tar and Axle Grease Stains.
To remove stains made by tar and
axle gre.isc white cotton goods and
linens are best cleaned with soap,
oil of turpentine and water, used
one at a time.
For colored cottons and woolens
rub first with lard, then soap and
water and allow it to stand about
half an hour; then wash with oil of
turpentine and water alternately.
For silks the same, but use benzine
instead of turpentine and drop wa
ter from a certain height on the un
derside of the stain. Do not rub.

respectively 57.2 ,degrees, 73 6 de

In the Sixteenth Annual lleport
of the Director of the U. S. Geo

on "The Gold Fields of the Sou

speaking of the South Mountain

mined and reduced lor $3 per ton

credible that veins of IS inches
or more in width, averaging f 10
per ton should be allowed to re

Monazite is found in all the gold
districts, and is au important by
product of the mines. It is ship

it is used in manufacturing the
Wellsbach gas hood. A few dia

county, and aquamarines, ame
thysts, zircon sjrubies, agates and
garnets both crystal and massive,
are found, the latter in such abund
