Fearful Electric Storm
Passed Over City Before
Day Friday—Wire Sys
tems About Only Suffer
ers.
One of the most spectacular eleo
irir: storms ever witnessed in Augusta
visited the city this morning about
1 o’clock. Vivid flashes of lightning
followed each other In rapid succes
sion, accompanied by deafening
crashes of thunder. The firmament
seemed one solid sheet of lightning
for quite awhile. Both sheet and
streak lightning emlnated from the
same cloud, and the view was one
of magnificent grandeur. People all
ov-pr the city gazed on the scene from
the best points of view obtainable
under the circumstances. Scores of
people have been talking about the
wonderful occurrence all day and it.
will probabfy be a long time before
another such disturbance is noted
here.
It seems that but little damage was
' done in spite of the fact that several
hundred volts of lightning must have
found a lodging place somewhere.
: With the bare exception of one giant
oak, out near Turpin Hill, which was
i completely shattered by a blast, no
! other damage has been reported In
j the city. The police and Are alarm
systems have been out of commission
! since the storm of Tuesday afternoon,
i Fire department circuit No. 6 Is the
1 only one not now In operation and
none of the others was damaged bv
! last night'a storm. The police alarms
Were already out of order and they
' have not been materially hurt by the
| storm.
The traek of the storm was west,
south and east of the city, describing
a circle ns It went, lip Iti Hummer
vlllo the rainfall was* scarcely no
ticeable, while In the lower section
; of the city It was akin to a deluge.
■ I’p the Georgia railroad the down
pour was of a torrential character as
far as Grovetown, but at Harlem the
rain had. praetically ceased, though
! a heavy rain fell earlier In the night.
i The rain continued across country
j and visited all localities smith of (he
: city and on down near Hephzlbah and
j toward Beech Island.
While rain was badly needed In all
the territory It Ib thought that the
j downpour was so terrific that It did
l more damage than good, blowing down
corn and blowing out cotton 10 surh
an extent thfit. It Will be several days
before things resume u normal ap
pearance.
Thinks It Saved His Life.
Lester M. Nelson of Naples, Mains,
says In a recent letter: "I have used
lir. Kins ’* New Discovery many year*,
for cough* and colds, and I think it
saved my life. 1 have found it a relia
ble remedy, for throat and lung com

ALARMED HIM
The great foreigner was surround
od by a mob of admirers.
"Give me your eur a minute," plead
ed one.
"And give me your eye a minute,"
echoed another, who wanted to point
out the scenery.
"And give me your nose a minute,"
added a third, with a huge bouquet.
The celebrated foreigner was non
plused.
"By ze shades ot Bonaparte!" he
exclaimed "I has often heard act
»e Americans vere great souvenir
hunters, but I did not know sat ley
would take a map to nieces. I bet
ter get away froth- here while I am
yet whole,"
