Telephones in Thunder storms,

During tie lightning discharges yesterday
AFTERNOON the telephone wires In the northern
aE0 horthWeStern parts OF the city became
dangerously charged with the electric fluid
and large nunber OF telephones were de-
sroycd. The telephone inspector reported
phones burned. The open lines were broken
partly by the wind and Storm ana partly by
cunning By the lightning. The telephone
tected as much as possible from the dangers of
the lightning, but perfect security cannot be
obtained, and although exceptionally fortu-
nate heretofore. the loss yesterday was VERY
large. Dow n Main street and In the business
part Of the city the microphoneS suffered
nuch, being burned by the lightning, in some
cases almost completely destroyed ard in
others scorched and damaged so badly that the
repairs necessary viii amount to almost as
much as new instrument. To use the tele-
phone III thunder storm is sometimes quite
dangerous and the man with the instrument

users OF telephones. Every instrument is pro-
ylded with q safety plug, which. IL arranged
when the storm begins, eftectually cuts The
electricity Off from the Instrument The

ments which are in the centre OF long lines
