A FREAK OF LIGHTNING.
The Globe Of Fire Vas Shining, Yet Die
Not Emit Any Heat

The Globe Of Fire Was Shining, Yet Did
Not Emit ANY Heat
Chambers journal.
A very singular story is told concerning
the vagaries of one mass of globe lightning.
A tailor In the Rue st. Jaques, in the
neighborhood of the Tai de Grace, was get
ting his dinner one day during thunder
storm, when he heard loud clap, and soon
the chimney-board fell down, and globe
of fire as big as child's head came out
quietly and moved slowly about the room
at small height above the floor.
The spectator in conversation afterward
with M. Babbinet. Of the Academic des
Sciences, said 1t looked like a good-sized
kitten rolled up into ball and moving
without showing its paws It was bright
and shining, yet he felt no sensation of heat.
The globe came near his feet; but by NOV

tact. After trying several excursions in
different directions, it rose vertically
to the height of his head-which he
threw back, to prevent 1t touching him
steered toward hole in the chimney above
the mantel-piece, and made its way into the
fue Shortly afterward-"when he sup
posed it had had time to reach the top" the
tailor said-there was dreadful explosion,
which destroyed the upper part of the
chimney, and threw the fragments on to
the roofs of some adjoining buildings which
they broke through,
