Tragic Death of Father Hayes and His
Brother Jerry.

Detective O'Connor received telegram yes
terday from the town of Corcoran, near
Anoka, announcing that the Rev. Father
Hayes and his brother, Jerry Hayes, had been
suffocated on Wednesday night. Father Hayes
went from st. Paul to take charge of the
parish.
IL seems that with his brother he went to
visit family named Malone, at Corcoran,
and remained all night. Not appearing in the
morning, the family went to the room occu-
psed by the brothers, and found it full of
smoke, and the occupants lay unconscious
in bed. A stand, upon which was
broken lamp, was on fire, and
it is supposed they left burning lamp which
exploded, the gas and smoke rendering them
unconscious. All efforts to resusctafe them
were unavailing. The remains will be taken
to Minneapolis for burial.
