most every bolt in the plow. The man| was thrown against the fence, but wasonly slightly stunned. The horges ranoff, dragging the plow after them, but

I suffered no material injury,j As Mrs. W. F. Trayer, of Mont-

I gomery township, near Mercersburg,was feeding her chickens at her homeshortly after noon on the same day, abolt of lightning struck a large locusttree about twenty yards away from

I blossoms around for a distance of 35yards. Mrs. Trayer was unhurt, butfive fat Black Minorca hens werekilled and, with the exception of fourpeeps that already emerged from theshell, an entire brood of unliatchedchicks were killed by the stroke.
