.corbInatIon FoIding Bath Tub

During heavy thunder storm on
Sunday evening, lightning struck the
electric light wires, and was commu-
nicated therefrom to the plant near
the bark mill The lightning arrested
was burned out, armature of the dy-
namo torn away and a damage of a
couple of hundred dollars incurred.
The electric lights in town of course
vanished. The safety of the light
to consumers, however, was made
manifest i'll the fact that the light
ming preferred the easiest route e.
to the dynamo-and did its damage
there in preference to visiting the
buildings up town.
