LINEMEN GOT
SEVERE SHOCKS

Two native linemen, employed by
the Mutual Telephone Company,
came in contact with a live wire at
the pole opposite the Union Grill,
King street, near noon today, and
were laid out for several minutes.
Old telephone wires along King
street are being removed their
places being taken by the new ca
bles. The two natives were engaged
in drawing these old wires to the
ground and turning them into coils.
One of the wires on which they were
drawing CHANGED to fall across an
electric light wire, the shock reach
ing both men at once.
After a short time they came to"
and got up, although in a dazed con-
dition. In fact it was half hour or
more before they seemed able to re-
member just what had happened.
It is not believed that the men will
experience any serious consequences
in future, resulting from their dose
of electric "iuice."
