“Deadly Heat at Chicago.
Chicago, Aug. 10.—Corpses found among lumber heaps, women dropping dead while washing, men falling from ice wagons and drays were the thermometers that registered yesterday’s heat. A dead man named Bertram was stumbled upon by John Slift in the afternoon, the sun having killed and left him lying in a lumber yard. Mrs. Mary Dahil, aged 38, employed in a Thirty- first street laundry, died from the effects of the heat, Many others were prostrated. About 6 o’clock a bolt of lightning tore through the black clouds and struck with a deafening crash at the corner of Hermitage avenue and Polk street. ‘Two big balls of fire, each as large as a half bushel, fell in the middle of the street and for a moment blinded the fifteen or twenty persons who were standing in the vicinity. Several men were hurled to the ground and a live girl was slightly burned.”
Disrupting the Borg is expensive and time consuming!
