In the war of elements Tuesday night
ming and the electric fluid played some
queer pranks. The house of Dan Pugh,
60 Twenty-eighth street, was struck
and set on fire but the dash of rain
Immediately following the thunderbolts
extinguished the blaze before it gained
much Roadway.
Mrs. Bond. mother of Mrs. Pugh, with
some of the children, were the only per-
sons in the house at the time and to
them it seemed the house was suddenly
lifted from its foundations ard dropped
back. They thought it was falling in.
but did not know for a few minutes
that lightning had caused ii. There was
general crashing of glass, timberS
and water pipes and q tumbling of fur
niture for the few seconds during and
succeeding the flash. An examination
of the premises yesterday revealed that
the current had apparently divided just
before reaching the house. One bolt
had gone down a poplar tree, ripping
leaves and bark from it, and tearing
up the earth at its roots where the cur
rent entered.
Another fork struck the roof of the
house, tearing a big hole in the shingles
near the chimney on the east side, shiv-
ering rafters and lumber generally. The
fluid followed an iron ventilating pipe
down into the cellar, where it wrought
havoc with the water pipes, releasing
the water and damaging the plumbing
generally. Evidences of the current APP
pear all about the house. Near the
southwest corner is where the shingles
were sc6rched by fire. Seven windows
were broken, including two front bay
windows Windows were broken in
other houses near at hand, but this
was probably by the jar.
At about the same time Mrs. Pugh
was walking with Mrs. Boyle and Mrs.
Livingstone a block or two away. Mrs.
Boyle seemed to be struck and called
for help. She was partially blinded for
several minutes. About two blocks
south Of Mr.. Pugh's house Mr.. Kold-
weir, an employee of Il. c. NJ. /, felt the
effects, his left arm being numbed for
time.
Evidently a tremendous thunderbolt
started for the earth, but was broken
into many smaller ones before reaching
it's destination
