THURSDAY EVENG., NOVEMBER 2.

BURNT By LIGHTNING BUT NOT klLLED.-
On Thursday, at about oc clock y. n., the
canal boat Robert s. Phelps, Of BlnShamton,
loaded with tagging stone for Syracuse, was
about half mile below this village when the
thunder storm passed over. The lightning
struck the steersman, MIR. Higley, of Trlao-
gle, Broome county. The lightning must have
struck him 90 the right side Of his head,
short distance below and forward OF the crown,
passed down his face, burning path through
bis whiskers, then down his peck and the right
arm, one branch crossiag his shoulder breast
and on the left side OF his abdomen, burning
part OF the way to q blister, aud part OF the
way scorchiug The skin and flesh to coder'
From his wis, which rested on the boat tlllcr'
the stroke passed to the tilier, tearing hole
in the wood OF considerable size, aud from
thence by iron straps to the water. Mr.. Hlg-
ley's arm aud shoulder and on to bis breast is
the worst sight We ever saw from lightning
burn. This moruing the old gentleman feels
very weak and sick, being able to sit up only =
few minutes. The right ear is evidently deaf
from the stroke. -Hunailton Republican,
