During the heavy thunder and rain storm Wednesday the lightning played havoc in a couple of places in town, striking at the home of C. V. Knox and Paul Roller. At the latter's a cow was in the way and was killed, and a horse was blinded. At the Knox home the chimney was struck, but practically no damage resulted beyond the general distribution of a considerable amount of soot, much to the disgust of Mrs. Knox.
