During the thunder storm last Thursday night a thunderbolt struck the house of Mr. Warden, No. 1190 G street northeast, passing through the outer wall, making a hole large enough to stick a man’s haad ) through, and passing obliquely upward through the roof. The plastering was scat- | ered like powder over the room. ‘rhe | i Stone knocked Mr. John Warden's pipe from his mouth and rendered him uncon- us for several minutes. A most curious feature of the affair was that, although the odor of brimstone was very strong, yet there was no evidence of fire. A failen tel- ephone wire was aflame with electricit: and repelied the handling of it by the me: who were attracted to the spot. Mr. War- den thinks the wire’s close proximliy to his house drew the thunderbolt to it. No great damage was done. aa Clerks’ Assembly.
