37 R. P. BARTON, UNDERTAKER (PERRYSBURG, (OHIO.) Both Phones Main Twenty-seven. KEEPING SILENT VIGIL MICHAEL HAYES FOUND SITTING IN HIS CHAIR AFTER LIFE HAD PASSED AWAY. When Michael Hayes failed to come down town to work Tuesday morning, his brother John went out to his house on Walnut street, and upon entering found his brother sitting in his chair before the fire, silent in death.

John immediately summoned Doctor Roether who made an examination and formed the opinion that Hayes had come to his death by reason of inhaling gas flames. A part of the young man's mustach was burned away, his hand and places on his neck were burned which led to the belief that while lighting his gas fire the flames from a light explosion had flashed in his face and that he had inhaled so much of the flame that death resulted soon after. Coroner Misamore was summoned and he agreed with the opinion given by Dr. Roether. Mr.

Hayes had probably gone to his rooms on Saturday and when lighting the gas the explosion occurred from which death resulted in a few hours. The oil had burned out of his lamp and his watch had stopped and it is believed he had remained sitting in his chair from Saturday night until found Tuesday. The funeral services were held Thursday. Mr. Hayes was 37 years of age, and a hard working man with many friends who will regret his death.

He was a son of Thomas Hayes, and leaves a mother and several brothers and sisters to mourn his death. THE PERFECT WOMAN.

18-09 WON BY ONE Perrysburg Elects Republican Mayor, Village Clerk and Two Councilmen. Perrysburg's council will have a Republican mayor and clerk, two Republican and four Democratic councilmen. David Van Vorhis, Democrat, was elected mayor of Bowling Green. Solether and Beatty were elected by Wood county as delegates to the Constitutional Convention by about 1,500 plurality. This is said to indicate that Wood county will remain dry.

Toledo elected Brand Whitlock mayor for a fourth term by 3,040 plurality. Walter F. Brown heads the Toledo delegation to the Constitutional Convention. John A. Smith, Republican, was re-elected mayor of Maumee.

Toledo Socialists cast over 5,000 votes for their candidate for mayor. Despite the fact that candidates for delegates to the Constitutional convention were presented to the voters on a non-partisan ballot, more nearly complete returns show plainly that the party question entered largely into the choice. Returns appear to completely clinch the victory of progressives in the delegate contests everywhere in the state. That the convention to make over the state constitution will be composed of delegates favoring such progressive measures as the initiative and referendum is now assured. Because of the refusal of the majority of candidates to make public avowals of their position on questions involving the liquor traffic, it cannot be definitely stated that the convention will be liberal or conservative on matters of this kind.

P. Champney. BUGGY SMASHED And Occupants Sustained Severe Injuries Misses Cleo Parish and Pearl Miller sustained quite severe injuries Sunday evening, as the result of having their rig ditched by an auto while returning from Dunbridge. About a mile this side of the village when passing a rig going toward Dunbridge, an auto going the same way attempted to pass between the two rigs. The machine struck the buggy driven by the young ladies backing it into the ditch, and tipping it over.

Both of the girls were thrown out and pinned beneath the buggy. Miss Miller's ankle was badly sprained and her back injured, while Miss Parish suffered a badly bruised limb and shoulder. The girls were taken to the home of Eliza Cox and the doctor was called. The buggy was broken to pieces and the horse had its hind legs badly cut. The driver of the auto gave his name as Miller Cook, and hails from Toledo.

After being out eight hours, the jury in the Beverstock case announced to the court through their foreman, Titus Beck, that they could not reach an agreement, and they were dismissed. This means that the case must be tried over again, and it is understood that the state will seek a speedy retrial. The afternoon session Thursday last was devoted to arguments. B. F.

James continued his argument of the morning, speaking for another hour in careful, close argument. He was followed for an hour and a half by N. R. Harrington, who closed for the state. His argument was one of the best of his long career as an attorney.

It was characterized by impersonal but strong argument. The charge of Judge Babst was generally acknowledged to be: most fair and impartial one and the case went to the jury at 4:20 Thursday afternoon. They were dismissed at 12:15 Friday CHIO SECOND AUTO STATE. Ohio is second among the states in the Union in number of automobiles, according to State Registrar Shearer. In the report for licenses up to October 1, the Buckeye states nosed Pennsylvania out with a majority of 2,000.

New York leads with upward of 80,000 licenses for the year. Ohio has 45.421, against 43,074 for Pennsylvania. Even Kansas, where every farmer is supposed to own half a dozen machines, doesn't come up to Ohio. BEATEN BY THUGS While on his way to the Union station at 10 Monday night Chauncey Underwood, a commissioner merchant of Bowling Green, was held up on Broadway near Clayton street, by two men, who beat him on the head with revolvers until he was almost unconscious after he resisted their attempt to rob him. Before they had time to rifle their victim's pockets the robbers were frightened by the approach of pedestrians and fled without securing anything.

The police were notified and after he had given a description of his assailants Underwood was taken to the office of Dr. C. H. Reed, who found that the man had received several scalp wounds. After he had been attended by the physician, Underwood left the city.

Soon after midnight Patrolmen Raitz and Sergeant Joe Delehanty arrested two men on Broadway near Perry street, on suspicion of having been implicated in the holdup. The prisoners gave their names as Herman Klotz, 21, and Ross McSontock, 23, of -Toledo Blade. CHURCH COLUMN.

While chasing a cow out of the barn yard Thursday night, Cullen White, living near Whitehouse, fell on the tine of a wooden straw fork and almost killed himself. The fork penetrated the right side, passing between two ribs and puncturing the lung. He managed to stagger to the house, where he was found a few moments after in a fainting condition. A doctor was called, and at the last report he was pronounced out of danger and recovering nicely.

-G. R. Bulletin. WON FROM E. T.

A'S Last Sunday, before about two hundred football enthusiasts the Perrysburg team defeated one of the stiffest propositions in Toledo the East Toledos- -by the score of 12 to 2. Toledo's score came in the first five minutes of play. On the kickoff the ball was received by an E. T. player who made the run of the fleld and was tackled within a yard of the goal.

The locals held them to three down, and then forced the ball out to the fifteenth yard end, where it was lost on a fumble, and the visitors dropped kicked a perfect goal for their 3 points. In the second and third quarters, the locals piled up two touchdowns, both made by Smith in desperate line plunges, and in each case F. Finch kicked a perfect goal. Next Sunday the locals will line up against some team from Toledo. The game will be a good one, as Manager Scott is booking only fast teams.

Game called at 3 p. m. MILLBURY WOMAN DEAD. Mrs. Hattie Davenport, 69, for 50 years a resident of Millbury, died Monday after a long illness.
