KILLED BI LIGHTNING
Fatal Work of an Electric Bolt at the Bunker

HUGH DONNELLY IKE VICTIM
He W.-.s Instantly Killed and Two
Young Men Who Were with Him
Sustained Serious Injury They
Were Sitting at the Top of the
Breaker Watching the Storm Lit
tle Damage Done to Breaker.
One person killed ami two eerionaly
i jured was llgbtnlns's Bad bar rest
it Dunmore yesterday afternoon.
The unfortunate persons were Hugh
Donnelly, the engineer nt tho Pennsyl
vania Coal company's Hunker Hill
breaker, who.was killed instantly, and
his two .companions, Seldon Swingle
and Henry StippWlin were injured.
The accident occurred nt the head of
I he breaker which is open at both
ides, to allow the large c.ir.i which
ire hoisted to this point, to run through
l i the breaker nnd be dumped. It w.ia
while sitting in this enclosure that the
nu n Were struck. The breaker was
not seriously damaged by the electric
bolt.
The accident happened during that
portion of the severe storm when hail
stones as largo us marbles, were de
scending. Suddenly there was a blind
ing fl ish in tht direction of the breaker,
and in its Big-lag course the bolt
struck the uppermost pirt of it.
what MITCHELL DISCOVERED,
John Mitchell, tiio foreman, rushed
up the stairs to And out what damage
was done. On entering the first head
house he heard groins that led him
him bigbei to the outer building, where
he found Swingle struggling on his
hands un l knees to rise to his feet.aud
directly across the building Stiup was
laying, twitching his hands and arms,
while almost at hi side aud motionless
lay Donnelly, his hands in his troueet's
pockets aud his open knife by his side.
I ty Swingle's half articulated ntter
nnces he understood the situation nnd
at once went for BSSistanC '. Swingle
and Stipp were shortly restored, but
Donnelly showed no signs of life and a
snort liuitf afterward the ambulance
bore his corpse to his home at Sport
Hill, where a wife aud several children
are left to mourn for him.
With a little assistance the other two
reached their boinea, They are se
verely shocked, but it is thought out of
danger.
The breaker was Idle for tho day and
f r m all appearances the three had re
paired tb the head of the breaker to
esonp the heat of the engine room and
enjoy the cool bre.-zaj.
HIDING FROM THE STORM.
They were I it;ier sitting down or had
stepped in from tho trestle to esciip?

feet above their luads and shattered a

Last night's meeting of the Assi

FORTY YEARS AS A DOCTOR.
Dr. Davidson G.ven Hit ExD-rttncs
to
County Mudical SocLiy.
The Lackawanna County Mo Heal
society held a meeting in the coroner's
room in the court house yestnrday aft
ernoon. Dr. William preside I. Oth
er members present were Drs. Burnett,
Connor. G iles, Wohlnn, Paine, Van
sickle Murray, Allen, Barnes, Prindle,
Ray, Dean, Davidson, and Dr. Blrdsell,
of Montrose.
Dr. Davidson, of Bsnton Center, read
a paper entitled "Forty Years Prac
tice of Medicine." Some of the state
ments of the author r fleeted rather
severely upon the medical profession,
but nevertheless mnch that he said was
of an interesting nature and command
ed the closest attention. Tho i.qir
whs a sort of review of the statin of
the medical profession aud was not
discti'sed.
Dr. (J. D. Murray also read a care
fully prepared paper on "Asthenopia,
or Painful Vision." It was discussed
by Drs. Dean, Burnett.liay and others.
Dr. Ray's remarks in reference to the
manner iu which some of the eye
specialists treat patients who are sent
to them were particularly sarcastic.
A proposition was made to ilw effect
that the constitution of the association
be so changed so as to allow physicians
troth other counties to be admitted us
members. A decision will be made in
the matter at the next meeting, Dr.
C. E. Tuompsou was elected to mem
bership in the association.
The meeting was htld iu the after
noon so as to allow out of town phy
sicians to attend. Dr. Prindle, who
was present, is the only lady physician
who is a member of the association.
NEALON IOST HIS EAR.

fortune while at his work yesterday.
He was engaged In shoeing a vicious
horse when the animal grabbed the ear
of the blacksmith between his teeth,

RUHR COURf BLOCKADED.
Property Owners Protested and Mayor
Connell Has Directed That It
Most Be Made Passable.
Yesterday there was a merry four!
cornered tight with the Economy
Stents Heat and Power company,
wnich Is layiiiLt steam pipes in the
streets, Peter Mullen, the contractor
doing tin work, Street Commissioner
Kirst) and well to do residents whoso
stables in Moir court have been block
aded by the work In progress as the iu
I en ste .1 parties. It is a mixed up af
fair, but unless tho passage of horses,
carriages and cows to and from the
stables is made possible before this
afternoon, the affair will incur diffi
culties for someone.
The residents started the ball by
making things lively for tho stroet
commissioner; be In turn made it lively
tor the contractor; the contractor in
turn unsuccessfully tried to msko it
lively tor the company. Mayor Con
nell was drawn into the fuss toward
evening and, like the Kilkenny man
who hit a head wherever he saw one,
he proposes to make it livedy for all
concerned except tho residents, unless
the tangle is straightened forthwith.
Tho difficulty is humorous aud yet
serious. The residents' position in the
matter is excusable; since Monday
afternoon they havo been unable to
get either horses or carriages from the
stablts, and two cows have sur
vived on parings, etc., and been pre
vented from supplying the tables with
thick Juue-gniss milk. Some blamed
the street commissioner for allowing
such a state of all drs to exist, others
blamed Contractor Mullen and the rest
placed the responsibility upon the
Economy company.
Work was begun about three weeks
ago iu extending the pipes from the
plant on J fferson nvonue, botweon
Myrtle nnd Ash streets, under a per
mit issued by Street Commissioner
Kirst, which provided that in tho al
leys the trench should leave enough
space for the passage of vehicles. The
peculiar details of laying steam pipes
with non-heat conducting material
makes tne work necessarily slow, No
difficulties wore met until Moir court
was reached, when tho contractor ex
cavated all tho way from Gibson strdbt
to l'iue street. Tho treuch is about
three or four days ahead of the pipe
laying, which lias only been completed
about 120 feet from Gibson street.
Mayor Connell yesterday gave his
hut to Street Commissioner Kirst that
the contractor of the company must
today lay the pipes and fill the treuch,
or iu the same manner make Moir court
pas-sable.
Now the residents are holding their
breath and wondering if the tangle
will unsnarl.

Three painters, Andrew Baker, Peter

been nt work on tbe Elm street bridge
for the past two weeks. Ten days ago
they observed an object, in the water
caught against the big main of the
Bcranton Gas and Water company that
goes through the river at the iower end
of the bridge. It fesembled the bloat
ed carcass of a dog aud that is what
thf-y supposed it to be.
When tho shower started yesterday
they sought shelter under the bridge,
and while waiting for the ruin to
cease, one of them remarked that the
decomposed oejrcc ought to be loos
ened or else the stench would nauseate
them when they begnn work on the
undor-strncture.
Upon scrutinizing moro closely the
men were horrified t tiad that it was
the body of a man.
The trunk of it was without any
clothing and bad reached that stage of
decay whero the flesh was tho color of
brown wrapping paper. The fl sh
was gone from the head leaving the
ghastly white skull and the upper ver
tebrae of the spinal column exposed.
The arms and legs were eaton away,
nothing but the bouos remaining. The
trousers that tho dead man wore were
turned inside out and attached by
shreds lo the bones of the feet.
HOW BOOT WAS IDENTIFIED
By the trousers an 1 a peculiarity of
the teeth, Patrick Ouffrey, his brother.
Identified the body, News of the dis
covery was telephoned to the polios by
tne painters, nnd Captain Eiwards de
tailed Officer Mills to koep off the
crowds.
Corouer Kelly arrived at 3 !10 nnd
impaneled tho following jury: Thomas
J. Plannery, Thomas H. Kelly, Oflic?r
T. E. Mills, W J. Scott, James Malia
and D. J. Moriarity. The body was
viewed and the testimony of the paint
ers taken. Mrs. Caffrey and her son
Patrick were positive that it was Rich
ard Calfrey and Thomas Dwyor also
swore to that effect.
The jury adjourned to the hotel of
Michael Gallagher and returned a ver
dict that tno corpse was that of Rich
ard Oafffey, who was drowned in the
Lackawanna river on or after March
7, and that drowning was accidental.
Undertaker Owen Cusick was no'ti
tied and the remains were taken from
the stream and brought to Mr. Cu
tick's est iblishmeut on Washington
avenue, whero thoy were prepared for
burial. At 0 o'clock the funeral was
