EXERTI0N IN
THE HOT sun.
Caused the Death of Joseph
VignOs, at Louisville.
CAUSE, CEREBRAL APOPLEXY,
Was Leaning over the Seat of His Bicycle,
Preparatory to Riding Home, when
the Summons Came Promi-
nent Citizen.

Joseph Vignos, we'll known and
highly respected citizen of Louisville,
died suddenly at 3 o'clock, Thursday
afternoon. The cause of his death was
cerebral apoplexy, which was induced
by the hot weather. The news OF Mr..
Vignos' death was great shock to his
relatives and friends in this city as
we'll as to his many acquaintances in
Louisville, as he had been apparently
in good health up to the time of his
death, which was entirely unexpected.
Mr.. Vignos ate his dinner as usual at
his residence, which is a short dis
tance from the village, in company
with his family and gave no signs OF
the approaching fatality which was to
occur in SO short time. After din
ner he mounted his bicycle as was his
custom and rode into the village to the
Office of DR.. Schilling, in whose employ
he has been for several years past. He
remained near the Office until about 3
o'clock. He had been exposed
to the heat OF the sun more
or less during the afternoon and about
o'clock was adjusting his bicycle pre-
pairing to ride, leaning over the bicycle
seat. 1t vas while in this position
that the stroke of apoplexy came upon
him and he fell forward over the BIZ
cycle. Several persons saw him fall
and Immediately went to his assistance.
He was carried into the residence of
DR.. Schilling, and expired in a few mo-
ments, medical aid being OF no avail.
His remains were taken to his home.
His wife was not present, having left
shortly after dinner to visit some
neighbors short distance in the coun.
try. She was Immediately sent for, the
news of her husbands death being a
great shock to her.
Joseph Vignos, the deceased, was GA
years OF age. He was born near Louis
Vile and spent his entire life in the vi
cinity of the village. Two children,
John Vignos, who resides in Pittsburg,
and Mrs. Frank Beatty survive Mr..
| Vignos and his first wife. Mr.. Vignos'
second wife's maiden name was Mary
Stauffer. She and an adopted daugh-
ter, Ruth, mourn his death.
Mr.. Vignos served in the 10th regi-
ment, for four years, during the civil
| war, and was post commander OF the
George d. Harter Post, No. 555. The
deceased has two relatives who reside
in Canton, a brother and sister,

death was telegraphed him immedi.
ately at Los Angeles, but it is not
known whether he has yet received the
message, and owing to the distance il
will be impossible for him to attend

ATTEMPTED MURDER.
Husband Attempts to Destroy
the Life Of His Wife, Accord
ing to Her Story.

The following from the Alliance Re-
view relates story in which Canton
man is the prominent figure.
G. L. Martin was former resident of
this city where his parents reside and
where he was for years, well known
man-about'town. His life. since leav-
ing Canton, it is said, has not been
conducive to the highest ideals, and
the Alliance story is but one of other
unpleasant episodes which cause the
young mans friends some anxiety as to
the finale:
Considerable excitement was occa-
stoned in the city this morning by the
story told by woman giving the name
OF Mrs. .. l.. Martin, who claimed her
home to be in CleXeland. According
to her version of the affair, she came
to this city last evening In response to
a letter received from her husband
who had been visiting his brother near
New Franklin. The husband met
her at the Union depot about
. CLOCK with rig be.
longing to the brother. They started
TO drive to New Franklin and when
near that place, she claimed her hus-
band attempted to kill her with razor.
She succeeded, however, in jumping
from the buggy and ran to nearby
farmhouse, where she stayed until this
morning when she was brought to this
city by the owner OF the house. Mrs.
Martins left eye was badly bruised,
showing that she had been struck dur.
ing the scutfie. She claimed that her
husband had been sent to the
Cleveland workhouse some time
ago for drunkenness and dis.
orderly conduct, but on ac
account of his poor health she had
secured his release from the works
Mrs. Martin seemed inclined TO keeL
the affair quiet and refused to talk up
on the subject, when approached by q
Review reporter. When she arrived Ii
the city she reported the case tc
Officers Stacey and Weir, at the depot
and requested them to secure hel
trunk, which she thinks her husband
appropriated. The woman says Mar
tin is a school teacher, but OF late hal
been. drinking heavily and was very
abusive. She returned to Cleveland
today"

BUSHNELL'S BROADSIDE.
He Makes Terrific Lunge at Hanna and
Mckinley and Lands on Them
With Great Force.

do not now recall any instance where q
man recommended by me or any OF my
friends has ever been given place by
the President. | know that applicants
who were endorsed by me would be
turned down when signed their appli-
cations, but could not make them be-
lieve so. That condition of affairs
dates back previous to my being made
Governor OF the state. After l was
Governor 1 very seldom asked the
President tor anything. AS an instance
Of the treatment he has accorded me
might instance the appointment of Of
ticers during the war. l recommended
Adjutant General Axline for Major
General and Messrs. George A.Garrett-
son and James A. Neal for Brigadier
Generals. The President appointed
Garrettson because he could not
help himself. But both
my other recommendations were
turned down, and General Keifer, OF
Springfield, was appointed. Keifer has
opposed me- which is the reason for his
appointment. But even he is not sat-
is6ed, so am told. He wished to make
a record in the war, and instead COM
plains that the administration kept
him in tent on a sandy beach. His
gubernatorial aspirations were shat
tered. | think he wanted to emulate
Roosevelt, but the Administrator saw
through the game and nipped it In the
bud.
81 saw General Grosvenor at the club
the other day with Judge Thomson"
he said. "He did not come forward
and thank me for the back seat l gave
him at the convention this year. let
him have the same seat that occupied
myself at the convention the year be-
fore"
INSPIRED BY GROSvENoR.
In connection with the Nash letter
the governor expressed the opinion
that Judge Nash had received his in
spiration to write that letter from Gen.
eral Grosvenor, as much as from Sena-
tor Hanna.
"Grosvenor thought to kill off Nash
as gubernatorial quantity by entrap-
ping him into that letter. But it seems
that he did not succeed, and Nash, and
not Grosvenor, Is the party nominee
this year."
During the afternoon former Cover
nor Charles Foster called on Governor
Bushnell and the two had q long talk
on political affairs. Governor Bush
nell expressed the regret he felt, al
though he has always been opposed to
Foster politically, that he had not been
given an appointment by President
Mckinley.
"The President has had multitude
OF commissions of fill," said he, land
most all of them pay from S. 900 a year
up. A place on one of these commits
siOns would have been a nice thing for
you"
Governor Foster smiled.
POSSIBLY my business affairs would
not have permitted me to accept the
place had it been offered me-" said he.
Governor Bushnell replied that it
would have at least shown a kindly
feeling on the part of the President had
he offered him the place. Then Cover
nor Foster, weighing his words, said:
81 think that William Mckinley is the
most insincere man l have ever met.
l have told him so. Perhaps that is
why he does not like me-"

Whose Husbands Death Brought

A thorough investigation is being
made into the disappearance of Will
liam Schlemmer, exclusively noted in
Thursdays News-Democrat as having
left his East Third street home and
family and incidentally gone to Cleve.
land to have an operation performed.
At the same time that Schlemmef
mysteriously went away, Mrs. Nellie
Keehn, of 1919 East Eighth street, also
disappeared, and her whereabouts is
shrouded in as much mystery as that OF
Schlemmer. A News Democrat repor-
ter called at the Keehn house Friday
morning and found the place empty and
learned that some weeks ago Mrs.
Keehn began selling off her furniture,
stating that she was going to leave
Canton and get married again. In this
connection, 1t is also stated
that just recently she re-
ceived $500 from the G. G. g. S.
railway company as partial recompense
for the accidental killing of her hus-
band, Amos w. Keehn, about a year
ago, on that road.
Since the death OF Mr.. Keehn, the
woman has taken In boarders to sup
port herself and boy about three years
of age. Neighbors allege that recent
ly Schlemmer was constant caller at
Mrs. Keehn's home, so much so that
the visits created considerable talk.
Sunday evening Schlemer visited at
his fathers home, North Young street,
for supper. He related a story there
Of going to Cleveland to have an oper-
alton performed and borrowed 81 from
his father to assist In paying his ex-
penses. On Monday evening he left
his home, telling his wife he was going
to Cleveland, but Schlemmer's father
investigated and learned that his son
had gone to Massillon instead, and he
also learned that Mrs Keehn on Mon
day evening! told her neighbors she
was going to Massillon to visit friends,
and during the day had expressed two
trunks to that city, and that shortly
before dark Schlemmer had called at
the Keehn home bnt found that the
woman had already left. The father
made inquiries at Massillon but beyond
being seen in that city he could learn
nothing further of his son.
Several weeks ago Schlemmer spoke
to some fellow-woFkmen about secur-
ing job in some western city, presum-
ably Milwaukee, in plow works. He
also spoke of visiting Kansas and secur-
ing employment. The father returned
to Massillon, Friday, to further his in
quiries, and he says ne will not rest till
he has learned positively where his
sou is located and whether the woman
accompanied him.
1t is alleged that Schlemmer stated
to neighbor, sometime ago, that he
knew where he could ''place his hands
on 81 900" any time he wanted to. 1t
is rumored that Mrs. Keehn also re-
ceived large amount of life insurance
money because Of the death of her
husband.
