ANOTHER WOUNDED or Yesterday morning this city waa visited with thunderstorm which though brief was ter rific and appalling in its violence' The rata fell in torrents forafew minutes accompanied with a furious driving wind almost approach lug a hurricane in fierceness Considerable rain fell on Wednesday night but it waa not until about one yesterday morning that the thunderstorm commenced and it did not last more than twenty or thirty minutes at furthest A very singular accident befel Mr Thomas house on Jefferson avenue just beyond thetermlnation ot the Street Rail Tho accident was certainly a frightful one 'inasmuch as a house containing six in mates was completely wrecked and shivered but one of tho strangest features is that not one of tho inmates received the slightest in jury rom an examination of the premises itseems that the electric fluid entered a chimney on tbe west sideof the house and demolishing it as it went descending directly to the cellar Striking the stone wall on the west side of the cellar it tore out a large mass of stones and mor tar and running up again to the floor of tbehouee ran along the sleepers cutting aud tearing them as it went till itugain reached the lion of the house which it shattered ail along the south side till it reached a frame work which it tore down in its course and thence plowed Into the ground for eight or ten feet and again reached the house foundation and destroying another large section of it took 1U course upward into tho parlor where it wrench ed the castors off the piano made kindling wood of a handsome center table aud after committing ravages too numerous to mention seems to Have burst through a tin cap that cov ered a stove pipe hole in the chimney in the east side ot the house as since tho accident nothing has been seen of this cap Such seems to have been the general course of the light ning but its ravages were by no means confin ed to this course The flooring of the whole house up stairs and down was shivered and the sleepers and joists thrown out of their places In the two rooms through which the chimney passed one third of the flooring was torn away or shivered iu splinters and thrown into the general mass of debris in the cellar Every window was blown out the outer and inner doors were to pieces two to atoifif ofad not a 'length of stovepipe in the house was left standing Everything in the preserve closet was smashed and dishes chairs tables and furniture of all descriptions were scattered around in broken and confused masses The whole front of the house was torn several inches away from the Joist and in fact the whole house is a complete wreck In tbe upper room through which the chim ney passes where a stove was blown into a hundred pieces and where nearly half the floor was torn away Miss Tilly Hopson was sleeping and strange to say escaped unin jured It is true the shock nt first rendered her insensible 'and her brother had to drag her from her bed but although nearly all the frag ments of tho shattered stove were thrown upon tbe bed she was unharmed nd after the first shock of fear had passed was as well as ever Iu the next room also on the west side of the house Mr and Mrs Hopson were tlceping ana the bursting of the chim ney tore in pieces a large portion of the parti tion between their own and their room aud also carried away a part of the floor of theirs besides breaking their beadstead and smashing the furniture generally cap that covered a stove pipe hole in tbis room was blown across the and spitted upon two large nails that had been driven into the wall the heads projecting an inch and a half from the plaster Mr son a young man of about five and twenty was awakened by the first peal of thunder and was about to get up when the flash of lightning came that struck the house and set it rocking llke a vessel in a storm He immediately sprang up and rushed to his room Here a frightful scene presented itself In the bed lay the young la dy insensible while upon it was piled the fragments of tbe bursted stove The wall was all ablaze with little spots of lurid flame by the light of which he could see the fearful rava ges tho subtle fluid had wrought The chim ney and nearly half the floor were carried away and a great breach was made in the partition between this and his room Seizing the insensible form of his sister he rushed into the hall and then into the room whore his fath er and mother had been sleeping Here a still more appalling scene presented itself His father stupefied by the shock was leaning against the wall which was also covered with spots ot flitne similar to those before alluded to and listlessly extinguishing them with his Anger aa ho slowly groped his way toward the breach opening into his room Seeing that another step would precipitate him through tho broken floor his son dropping the girl into a chair rushed forward and catching hold of him pulled him back at the same time showing him that the young lady was safe The house was illuminated with a weird blue light and the rain was beating through the breach mado by the lightning in torrents In tho bedroom at the foot of the stairs Mr Nathaniel Hopson was sleeping with a little child The castors were wrenched off tbe legs of the beadstoad and some dishes iu tho room were broken but neither man nor child was injured Ou examining the bouse and finding it a complete wreck the family moved the adjoining wing which was comparatively un injured ThlMeBtrnctlon of this house is something very singular and offers a most inviting field for scientific speculation The destruction was evidently not all accomplished by the direct agency of the electric fluid or at least by the direct contact of the fluid with the portions of the building where the damage was done In many parts of the house its traces are clearly visible as where it tore along the sleepers anfl shattered portions of the cellar wall But it also seems that there was a strong erplosiv force which burst the' windows and doors and that shattered tho whole house The bricks from the chimney were found to have been thrown upwards of sixty feet and even the glass from the windows was blown fifteen or twenty feet away The house itself was lifted from its foundation and os before stated the floors were shivered and up heaved In short the presence of an explosive force was as evident as the direct ravages of the lightning but the question is what was this The lightning evidently entertsd at the top of tbe chimney and thence traveled through a large portion ef the house carrying destraction with it as it has done in many another house but this does not account' for the explosion Did it in its courae meet with a non conductor and accumulating at that point explode Did the electric fluid as it entered the chimney and passed through the house heat the air so suddenly that it instan taneous expansion shattered the building and blew the windows and doors from their case ments In the cellar there was a considerable amount of partially decomposed vegetable mat ter Did the electric fluid when it passed into (he cellar unite with the gase arising from this mas and cause tbe explosion 7 In the ncar the bae of the chimney the Ught nifigltrnct a lower: corner of an old ice box and passing through tbe charcoal buret through the zinc lining Had this
