Press. lightning struck the seventeen
story steel frame building of the Union
Planters bank, and the cornice at the
top was demolished. Six stenographers
tainted and men and women congested

building was on fire. The stenographers
soon revived and there was no loss of
life or injury to limbs.
The incident has brought out consider

steel structures are safe in thunder
