LIGHTNING
PLAYFUL AT
PORTLAND

p. Il. Struck was struck by light
nng yesterday morning. Sa was the
Hawthorne bridge both at Portland.
Mr.. Struck is superintendent for the
Oregon Independent Paving Company,
which has It's plant at East Salmon
and East Water streets. He was
standing on a plank at the door of the
office talking with Dan Kern, when
the lightning suddenly struck CON
yeyor chain near by, ran down nearly
to the ground, and then appeared to
break and spread out, fan-like, after
the fashion Of an exploding sky-rock-
ct. AS the bolt broke, a part Of it
whizzed across the intervening 300
feet to Struck, and struck him on the
left leg, just above the ankle. He was
rendered unconscious, but was soon
restored when a physician, who was
summoned, had applied restoratives.
The freaksh lightning left Strucl
with a discolored limb, feeling Of
numbness in 1t, and a bad taste in his
mouth
The Hawthorne bridge was out of
commission only 10 minutes after the
bolt crashed against the west tower
about 10 o'clock yesterday morning.
The lightning raced down the steel
jumped into the electric conduit and
the cable supplying electricity for the
operation of the bridge, and then leap
ed into the river. The conduit, cable
and street car wires on the bridge
were burned out.
j. j. Doyle, bridge engineer, and G.
II. Russell, bridge-tender, we're in the
tower when the flash came and 1t al
most blinded them. This was follow
ed by the crash of thunder over their
heads, and the loud sizzling Of burning
wires, and the smell of burned copper.

COMMUNICABLE DIEASES
AT THE PENITENTIARY

Discovering that a number of the
convicts at the state penitentiary are
afflicted with communicable diseases,
DR.. Calvin White, secretary for the
state board Of health, yesterday en-
tered into an arrangement with Gov
ernor West for their treatment.
Some Of the diseases are of such a
character that 1t requires a specialist
to treat them, and the convicts will
have the advantage of the superior
services which can be offered by the
members Of the state board of health.
The members of the board feel that
many of the diseases affllcting con-
victs at the institution should be Grad
lcated for the benefit of humanity
and that the state should do the work.
