A bolt struck the AspinoolG bleachery. causing considerable fire in the color depart ment. One of the big hoods over the cans was all ablaze. The alarm was sounded in the plant and the fire de- partment maintained by the company did fine work in extinsuishing the ire. with but little damage.

Hot Wave Broken by Electrical Storm

tN9@ U6WG 9E9N%H " 6iGSItCGt SIQFf0s
 Friday kept up the ten days hot spell until 4.45 in the afternoon, when violent electrical storm came down from the north and burst upon the city There were a few scattering drops of rain and then the clouds opened and a deluge came for space of ten min utes. The wind blew strong and housewives had much ado to get their windows shut in time to keep out the wet. The rain stopped before enough water had accumulated to cause any serious washouts and in half an hour evening it sprfnkled again for a while. The atmosphere was cleared and cool ed. and Friday evening was a delight fu1 change. although not too cold.
 The lightning was vivid and sharp, but though the storm passed right over the city no cases where the bolts did damage were reported. The tele- phone was evidently the heaviest suf- ferer from the storm. and at the Willi- mantle office Friday night it was esti- mated as reports began to come in that perhaps as many as 150 lines had
 been put out of commission. The
 damage covered large amount of ter ritory. including Mansfield, Coventry,
 Hampton, Leonard Bridge, Pleasant
 Valley. South Windham and some city
 telephones were burned out The light
 ming split pole in Coventry.
 Chief Gerrick reported that the light
 ming had put, the fire alarm system out
 Of service temporarily by burning out ae couple of fuse plugs at the Bank street station. These were replaced immediately. This was the only dam age reported to him by the lightning. The trolleys had their troubles and the schedules were somewhat inter- fered with. The lightning that persist ed after the rain stopped was responsi- ble for much of the trouble. On the Coventry line, above the cutout south Of Perkins corner, power went off at about o'clock and the car was stalled up there for an hour and a half. The trolley telephones were put out of working commission. The Norwich l trolleys were likewise made late There | were no cars in at and o'clock and | the first evening car was at the cross- | ing and went back at o'clock.
 In the schools Friday the heat con- l tinued to be oppressive. St. Joseph's l and St. Mary's schools were closed at 1 noon and the Windham street school at
 2.30. The other schools maintained the
 regular schedule.

SOUPS THAT WILL BE LIKED
For the Colder Days There 10 Moth.
Ing Better Than That Made With
Peas-othsr Suggestions.

To make thick pea soup wash and
soak overnight one pint Of split peas.
Next morning put them into pot
with two quarts Of water. Meantime
try until brown two sliced onions and
a head of celery In two ounces Of
clarified dripping. Put them in with
the peas and two slices Of bread cut
diagonally, q teaspoonful Of salt and
half that amount Of pepper. Bring
to the boil, simmer for one and a
half hours, rub through a sieve, add
one pound Of mashed potatoes, return
It all to the pot and bring once more
Just to the boiling point. Strain II
desired. II tho soup is not thick
enough add q tablespoonful each Of
-four and butter rubbed together and
let the soup heat for five minutes
longer. This soup is very nutritious
and would take the place Of meat.
For q good cabbage soup remove
the outer leaves from two small cab
bases and cut into shreds with half q
head Of celery. Soak in boiling water
for ten minutes, drain and cool in
fresh boiling water for ten minutes.
Once more drain and place In 4 pan
with two pints of stock or water, one
ounce Of finely minced sweet herbs
and pepper and salt to taste. Then
bring to boil and simmer for fifteen
Or twenty minutes. Serve with grated
cheese.
Potato soup IL good and cheap, es-
pecially II made without meat, al
though scraps Of meat or gravy may
be added II liked. Cut three medium
sized potatoes into thin slices, add
one small slice onion and q handful
Of rice. Boil in water sufficient to
cover. Parsley heightens the flavor.
but 1t should be lifted out when we'll
cooked. When the potatoes are done
blend a piece Of butter the size Of an
egg with Drowned flour and stir It
into the soup. This gives a rich color
and appetizins flavor. Milk may be
added. but 1t should be sparingly
used. You may add carrots. beans.
peas and other leftover vegetables to
such soup. Drop dumplings are nice
to serve with this soup. Take one
egg. one-half eggshell Of water, a
pinch Of salt and one teaspoonful of
baking powder. Add enough flour to
make q dough that will drop easily
from q teaspoon. Remove when they
rise to the top of the soup.
