.LINEMAN GETS
FEARFUL SHOCK
Brig Pearce Has Narrow Escape
From Death.
WAS KNOCKED SENSELESS
WIRE CARRIED TWO THOUSAND
VOLTS.

Brig Pearce, a lineman employed by
the telephone company, had narrow
escape from a horrible death by cleo
trocution while engaged in stringing
telephone wires along Ninth East
street near Eleventh South yesterday
afternoon. The unfortunate lineman
received a shock from live electric
wire carrying a current of 1000 volts
and the only reason probably that he
was not instantly electrocuted was
that he did not receive the full current.
The current which he received burned
him but slightly, but the shock was
so severe that he is now at st. Marks
hospital in a very serious condition.
The accident occurred shortly after
4 o'clock yesterday afternoon while
Pearce and three companions were
stringing some telephone wires above
the electric light wires. Pearce had
charge of the wagon containing the
reel of wire and was standing on the
ground holding to the wire that ran
from the reel 10 the tops Of the poles.
While the other men were making prep
arations to ascend another pole, the
loose wire in some way swung against
