LIGHTNING's BK-O0e OF the
most severe storms that ever visited
San Francisco broke over the city at
an early hour yesterday, rain and wind
sweeping over the city with unusual
violence, accompanied By thunder and
lightning, a rather unusual occurreH ce
10 that city. At one time rain fell IN
such torrents that many thought q
cloudbugst imminent. During the
height of the storm several bouses were
overturned b. the wind, fences blow n
down and other damage done. One Of
the great receiving tanks of the San
Francisco Gas and Lighting Company
was strucS by lightning, the gas taking
fire. No oLe was burt liz toe explo'
sion. but the tank was completely de-
molshed. During the storm the city
was entirely cut of from telegraphic
with the rest OF the
world. the Western Union ard Postal
telegraph companies losing every wire
ont of san Francisco. The damage to
telegraph wires is being repaired rapid
ly. Some damage was done in the
mountains, but nothing definite can be
stated as 20 its extent.

HER LOVERS PLEA IN VAIN.-Ti e
police ju-tice OF Richmond yesterday
sentenced Aunie Wyatt, re fOed look
ing young w0mau, 10 serve three
months ip jlil for the larceny OF $500
worth of goods from the store OF Julius
Meyer a. JOINS, where che had been en-"
ployed several years. Her sweetheart
stood by her in ner trouble and begged
the Judge 10 make her sentence fac,
saying be would pay il and rosrry her.
The young woman was discovered
going out of the store Thursday night
with a bundle. A search Of her house was
made, and q large amount of laces,
silks, books, aud other goods was dis
covered. The young woman had al
ways borne the very best reputation,
being teacher in q Sunday school.
She lost her D rents ct an early age,
and bss always had to support herself
It is thought she WIS tempted by the
Christmas goods in the store. Her
lover will mske every effort to induce
the Governor 10 pardon her. 1t is very
likely that this will be done. as the
Richmond jail is almost urf. for o hu-
man being to iDhsbt.
