The man struck was William John- | son. He was overcome by the bolt as | he was walking along the' street and dropped unconscious but was later re- | | vived. A dwelling house was hit and | partly unroofed. “ The electric lighting plant was en- tirely crippled and business places | and homes which depended on it were without light or power last night. | The Willimantic Chronicle, an aft- ernoon paper, was forced to suspend publication because of the stoppage of the Electric Lighting company’s plant. Hail Stones Like Walnuts. Windsor, July 14.—Thousands of | dollars damages to growing tobacco | throughout this section resulted from | the severe electrical storm. During | the storm hailstones as large as wal- | nuts fell in large quantities. Canvas | coverings on shade grown tobacco | were set on fire and destroyed, to- | gether with the crops they were shad- | ing. Some estimates place the loss | considerably in excess of $100,000. Killed Driving Auto Truck. Willimantic, July 14.—BErwin E. Morse, a building contractor of this city, was killed during the storm when he lost control of his automo- bile truck while driving from Scotland to this city. The machine swerved | from the road and into a fence, one | of the rails of which impaled Morse. He was brought to this city by a pass- ing automobile, but was dead when the car arrived. Rockville Ts Hard Hit. Rockville, July 14.—Rockville was visited by one of the worst hail, wind | and rain storms in years. Rain fell for two hours and lightning and thun- der were incessant. Several places In | town were struck, buildings were un- | roofed, trees from one to two feet in diameter were torn up, many windows were broken all over the city by hail, and hundreds of feet of curbing and sidewalks were washed out, while streets and parks were littered with branches of trees and other wreckage. A 100-foot flagpole in the central green was snapped in two. Telegraph and telephone wires were torn down by falling trees and trolley service was partially crippled. In some cases it was necessary to partially close factories, owing to the damage done by lightning and wind. | In one instance a canal overflowed and a factory, doing consid- erable damage to stock there. The roof was torn from the White grain store and dropped on the railroad tracks some distance away. Consider- able damage was done to tobacco and other crops. So far as reported, no one was injured. Manchester Man May Die, Manchester, July 14.—Thomas Hickey, fifty-eight, a rpominent res- | ident of this town and a brother Col.

Danbury, July 14.—Danbury was practically isolated from the r of | the country as the result of the sever- est electrical storm this season. The lightning struck many places in the city and all wire communications, except to Waterbury were severed. of Norwich Suffers, Norwich, July 14.—Crippled phone, fire alarm, electric light and trolley service, flooded cellars and bad washouts resulted from the terrif- ic thunderstorm which struck this city. The telephone officials were unable to tell just how much damage | the lightning did to the service, but | they said that it would be twenty-four hours, probably more, before the ser- vice would be normal. Several trolley cars were burned out and one car was stalled for twenty minutes at Nor- | wich town, where the sand was washed over the tracks several inches deep.

Malke surethat nothing is being eaten between meals to destroy the natural appetite and if your growing child does nothave a healthful craving for good, honest food at mealtimes there is something the matter. Threats of punishment if the child does not eat will not correct the difficulty.

A non-alcoholic tonic such as Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills is demanded. During her ’teens a girl lays the foun- dation for her future health. Lack of blood at this time may rob her of Tobust, healthy womanhood.
