 The thunder storm Thursday even. | ing caused considerable inconvenience ! to the residents of Willimantic as electric lights all over town were out for some time. Lightning struck twice on Jackson street. In one case the occupants of an automobile were stun ned and the steering gear of the car was put out of commission when the 1 lightning entered directly in the front 1 of the machine: At the home of Will liam J.. Sweeney, 233 Jackson street, a lightning bolt played havoc. Most | of the damage was done in the pantry and a side hall. Where the bolt en- tered, one entire pane of window glass was broken. but 8 wire screen over the window was apparently not touch- 1 ed. All the cupboard doors were thrown open and many pots and paGs on the lower shelves were overturned. Few articles were broken; even q plat ter that was hurled into the kitchen was intact.
