Lightninp's Freaks.

NEW York, June 10 Herman Maths,
who was killed by lightning on Tuesday
evening in Newark, was workman in
Solomon's tannery, on the edge of the
meadows, In Avenue q. He observed
that rain was beating into window and
went to close II. AS he was pulling the
sash lightning struck an iron leader pipe
running from the roof down the side of
the building two feet from The window.
The current lett the pipe, passed
through his Lody, killing him instantly,
and then went through the floor to the
boiler room. The furnace door was closed
and latched, but the lightning threw 1t
wide open. From there 1t apparently
skipped through the beam house, where
several men were feshing hides. They
were knocked right and left, but none Of
them were seriously hurt.
In Keilly's tannery, adjoining Solo
mons, three men were stunned, and they
did not fully recover for an hour. A
horse hitched to wagon In the yard Of q
slaughter house few feet from the tan
merry was struck aud the hair was siuged
from one of its hind legs. The driver
was tumb'ed out OF the wagon. The
lightning lit up oil of the electric lamps
in the Mutual Benefit Insurance Com
pany Building for an instant during the
storm.
The Newark News says Edwin Cor
such, of 298 Bank street, one of its COM
positors, had a strange experience with
ham. 1t had been nicely boiled and
lifted from the pot to the dish. A steel
carving fork had been inserted and Mr..
Gorsuch was sharpening knife to carve
when a strange odor Of sulphur became
apparent, and he turned TO see the fork
making circular excursion toward the
floor, where 1t stood upright, while the
ham, neatly skinned, started at railroad
speed for the end of the table. The
labor-saving streak of lightning confined
Its operations to tie ham aud the fork.
