Middletown, O.. Nov. 2S.-The First

Investigation showed that each hole ex-

which 1t widened into a small room, in
which a beetle lived. Several Of the in

JUMPS ON A CORONER.
coIunbiana County Paper De-
eiares He Was Guilty Of
Vicious Conduct.


The Leetonia Reporter tells the fol-
lowing story:
Henry Kornmeister, German
farmer living near Kline's mill, six
miles north of Lisbon, committed sui
eide by hanging himself in the barn.
Kornmeister was bachelor and owIl-
ed farm of about 20 acres on which
he lived alone. He carefully dressed
himself before committing the deed
and had evidently been hanging about
"a hours when discovered. He left no
word of any sort and no motive eau
be found for the act. He has no living
relatives.
The Reporter is informed, on what It
considers reliable authority, that when
discovered the people of the locality,
thinking it was unlawful to molest the
corpse of one found dead, dispatched
some Of their number for the coroner
OF Lisbon. Coroner Straughn, how
ever, gave them no satisfaction AMI
lrutishly told them to leave the body
hang where they found 1t until he came
out. The messengers returned and re-
ported, and of course the people did so.
To make matters worse Coroner
Straughn did not appear on the scene
until the next afternoon, the body
hanging there all the time, nearly "a
hCurs after the coroner had been noti-
fed, and probably 30 hours after being
discovered.

WIfe's Severe Charges
In Divorce Petition.
TRIED TO KILL HER
She Alleges, land TreatedEler
6rutaiiy on Other Oe-
- casIons.-News Of
the Court.

Extreme cruelty is the reason as
signed by Manola Rohrer, Canton
woman, why she should be divorced
from Irving Rohrer. The petition was
fled in common pleas court Monday
afternoon by Attorney J. B. Snyder,
who represents the wife in the ac-
tion brought. The document recites
the fact that the couple were married
in 1891 and have two children. 1t is
alleged that on July %, 1901, the hus-
band threatened to kill his wife and
choed her while she was in bed at
q late hour of the night. At divers
times prior to that date he is accused
OF having threatened to take her life
striking and beating her in q cruel
manner. She was frequently driven
from her home by his cruelties and
compelled to seek refuge at q neigh
boris. He freQunetly used language
toward the plaintiff that was too vul-
gar and vile to even incorporate in the
petition.
On the morning OF July "a last. the
defendant left his home and a short
time later in the day was arrested by
the police of Canton on charge OF
drunkenness and disturbing the peace
He was arraigned before Mayor Rob-
ertson, found guilty and sent to the
workhouse for 80 days. From tha,
time on the wife has not lived with
her husband. She asserts in her Pc
tition that she has always been du.
tifui and faithful wife, but that heI
husband has been IN habitual drunk
ard for more than three years. The
wife asks divorce, alimony, the custody
OF the children, restoration to hei

such other relief as she may be en-
titled to under the law.

THE CONSUMERS KICK
ON INCREASED PRICE

Monday morning the price OF milk
to consumers in Canton was raised
from five to six cents per quart. The
new rate went into effect through an
agreement made Saturday evening at
a meeting of the Milkmens association
held at the court house. There are
over fifty members in the association
which controls the entire sale of milk
in Canton. It is claimed by the men,

in the price of feed.
The consumers are making strong
kick. To reporter a consumer said:
II told our milkman this morning that
we would quit taking milk from him
as I prefer to buy condensed milk
rather than pay the increased price
and I know my neighbors feel the
same way"
One milkman admitted that he lost
nine customers on his morning trip
as result of the new price.
