THE PHENOMENA OF THUNDERSTORMS

The phenomena of thunderstorms
have been the subject of much
study in America. But if thun-
derstorms can be classified, they
are still not thoroughly understood.
We do not yet know what are the
exact conditions which lead to the
discharge of electricity in the form
of a light from cloud to earth. We
cannot produce thunder and light
ming in laboratory. We do not
know what is the origin of the cleo
trifcation manifested in a storm.
Concerning the freaks of light
ming, an English writer cites these
curious instances. A girl in charge
of two children, sheltering under
tree on Chilsehurst Common, was
struck by lightning and killed-one
of those dreadful instances of the
sort of personal touch with which
lightning seems to select its victim,
for though one child is reported to
have been thrown down, neither,
apparently, was injured. There
are many instances, of course, of
this strange selection, due in most
cases, probably, to accident OF
clothing. There is a well-remem-
bered case which happened some
years ago at Cambridge, when three
young men were walking across an
open space of ground, and the
middle one of the three was struck
dead, while the others were UNI
touched. The inquest showed that
the young man who was killed had
nails in his boots, whereas the 9TH
ers were wearing boating shoes.
Many other cases are on record,
but those given will serve to show
thefreakishness of lightning strokes.
