J. 81. McAllister and Charles Mil
Ter, of Bakerton, this county,were both
made very i'll by inhaling Illuminating
gas at the Y. M. G. A. building in
Hagesstown the other night, and the

open. When McAllister awoke his
partner was unconscious. He man

help. DR.. W. B. Morrison attended
the men. 1t is thought the gas was
accidentally turned on after the light
