Lightning's Queer Freaks.

Every season lightning plays
many peculiar pranks. says the
Cincinnati Enquirer This sum-
mer its strangest freak was H. flic.
ted upon 19-year.old youth,
Joseph Cambon, in the bronx
district OF New York city.
While walking along a shaded
street under row of p ,plar trees
during thunder storm, young
Cambon was knocked down by q
biindin@ flash Of lightning. He
was picked up, carried into a
neighboring house and soon re.
gained consciousness.
He complained of a severe
paIn-a burning sensation on
his back. When his clothing
was removed it was discovered
to the astonishment of those pre-
sent that the outlines of a pretty
girls face and head had been
tattooed on the skin below the
shoulder blades by the lightning.
The image stood out with start
ling distinctness in vivid red
lines. Stranger still, the girl
was easily recognized as a belle
of the neighborhood.
"Why, it's Sadie H." exclaim-
ed one of the attendants. Young
Cambon was completely nom
plussed when he heard this, for
1T was the girl with whom he was
Keeping company. He then ac.
knowledged that he had a small
photograph of the girl pasted on
the inside of his watchcase, which
he was carrying in his vest pock-
ct.
How the lightning could trans
fer the girls image to the young
mans back is a scientific myste-
ry. This phenomenon, however,
is not altogether new. There
are many cases on record where
lightning has imprinted the
images of nearby trees, foliage
and other objects in the vicinity
upon the bodies OF the PERSONS

bers of the commission are greatly
pleased with the statue. Virginia
has been represented for years in
Statuary Hall by a figure OF Wash
ington. but the other niche to which
the Old Dominion is entitled has all
this time been vacant because the
legislature was willing to accept none
but Lees statue. When the bill was
introduced in the Virginia general
assembly providing for the appro-
priation of $4,000 for a statue of
Lee for the second Virginia niche.
many expressed the opinion that the
movement was ill-timed. The legis-
lature passed the bill and the COM
mission does not doubt that the
statue will be accepted.
