cd by II, p. Imboden. 1t contained

Clogged Drain Floods
State Auto Records;
Must Retype 5000

Web-footed men and women with
Annette Kellerman abilities, if there
are any such about, might find work
in the automobile license division
of the State Highway Department
these days. Complaining stenog-
raphers busily typing the records
and licenses of state automobiles to-
day discussed the addition of swim
ming suits and water wings. Their
state of mind followed developments
last night when the offices in the
Donaldson Building were flooded
with water and valuable records
were destroyed.
The discovery of the deluge was
made when the elevatorman found
water dripping through the base
ment ceiling. Upon Investigation he
found the stream came from the
automobile offices. He Immediately
got into touch with the Capitol and
G.. w. Brewster, register of licenses,
hurried to the scene. Official dig
nifty was forgotten and with Tele-
graph reporter and an attache of
the Telegraph's advertising depart
ment as aids, Brewster discarded
shoes and socks, forgot creases in
his trousers and waded into the foot
of water that covered the expensive
carpets.
Just look at that The Ford Ii
cense records for the whole year are
in that water" exclaimed Brewster,
adding that he had taken the cards
back so they would not by any
chance get dampened by the rain.
About his time inhabitants of the
Donaldson Apartments began to
gather and there were a number of
bathrobed women as interested spec
tators within few moments. Sew
eral Hill employees came down to
look on and were greeted with
Come in; the fater's fine" They
rolled up their trousers and joined
the crowd. After an hours hard
work the cards were rescued and
laid out to dry. No estimate of the
damage could be made, but it is
supposed that at least five thousand
of the cards will hape to be retyped.
1t appears that a drain on the
roof of a small court had become
clogged and the water had seeped
through the roof to the room below.
THE worst of it is, any rain that
comes along will cause us the same
trouble" walled a typist as she
stood on burlap bags over wet spots
on the floor. THE drain hasn't been
mended yet. What shall we do?"

STEELTON HIT
HARD BY STORM
Streets Damaged and Repair
Work Set at Nought by
Torrents

Damage that will reach a CON-
siderable figure was caused by last
evenings electricl storm on proper
ties of Steelton borough, the Har-
risburg Railways, the Bell Telephone
Company and the Steelton plant OF
the Bethlehem Steel Company. This
is the third time in as many months
storm has created havoc. in the
borough. The loss suffered yester-
day is lighter than that inflicted by
any of the previous ones.
Especially heavy losses were suf-
fered by the borough. Blocks OF
wooden pavements were torn up and
layers of gravel placed over them
by torrents OF water streaming from
the upper part of town, ut several
intersection in Front street.
In Jefferson street, in the vicinity
of Gibson, where extensive repairs
to pavements damaged by previous
storms had just been completed, all
repair work of the highway depart
ment was entirely undone.
Phone Lines Out of Service
One of the greatest sufferers from
the storm in Steelton is the Bell
Telphone Company, which had forty
five lines put out OF use by the light
ming. The Steelton Light and Power
Company had all its power cut off
by the storm, placing the borough in
darkness for sometime until repairs
could be made.
At Jefferson street the northbound
track of the Harrisburg Railways
Company vas so badly damaged by
the floors that 1t had to be abandon
ed. The southbound track was used
~ Ill ri
traffic.
Several departments of the local
plant of the Bethlehem Steel Com
pany were closed because of damage
done by the lightning to wives and
electric apparatus throughout the
plant in last nights storm. The
lightning system of the plant was
partly disabled and was not COM
pletely repaired until early this
morning.
Fire on Athletic Field
Only one fire resulted from the un-
usually severe lightning and that was
a small blaze on the Cottage Hill
Athletic Field. When the lightning
passed over some wires, one of the
large poles on the field was set afire.
An alarm was sent into five of the
fire companies and the blaze was
quickly extinguished. The pole burst
int oflames again later, but the fire
was quickly extinguished.
By early this morning the tele-
phone and lighting companies had
completed their repairs and the rail-
ways company had resumed traffic
on both lines through the borough.
The borough highway department
has already set large cesps of men
at work cleaning up tke pavements
and repairing the damaged sewers
and sections of pavement.
