A very severe electric shock was suffered by an Auckland woman who attempted to lift the loud-speaker of an electrified wireless set while tho current was turned on. So strong was tHe current that she was unable to loosen her hold. In torture she writhed on tho floor, but still had sufficient control over her faculties to endeavour to break the connexion with her feet. Her cries were not immediately heard. When help arrived she gasped out, “Turn off the switch,” and was then freed. In addition to severe nervous shock her hands were burned. A year or two ago another resident of Auckland received a severe shock through lifting a loud-speaker that threw him violently across the room. He strained •some muscles in his fall, and was laid up for two months.
