In the midst of life we are in
death. How true these words apply
to the death OF Berthe Frasher, who
fell asleep in Jesus April 30. Deceased
was the daughter of Green Jordan
and this is the first daughter that
death has severed from them.
The earthly home is losing but The
heavenly home is gaining. Deceased
was married in 1903 to Mr.. John
Frasher How sad for husband, rola-
lives and friends to be left without
wife and without kind friend but
they have the consolation of knowing
that they may meet her in the sweet
bye and bye. She leaves two sisters,
Cora and Mary and five brothers TO
mourn her loss.
She was sweet spirited woman and
loved by all who knew her.
The funeral services were conducted
at home by Rev. Cassidy.
Many sorrowing friends aud rela-
tiyes witnessed the last earthly appear

BALTIMORE HOTEL

BY Uniteo Press Leased Special Wire.
BALTIMORE, Md, Rprll s.-Two young
men, each about "A years Of age. believed
to be William Gordon and Chester Jones,
of Whiteford, Hartford county Nd, were
found unconscious from the effects Of 81
Illuminating gas in a room at the hotel
Desch on North Charles street last night
and removed to the city hospital where
the man thought to be Gordon diEd this
morning without regaining consciousness.
Despite the ecorts Of the physicians to re-
vive him, the other victim is still uncon-
scious with little chance Of recovery.
When found both men were fully dress-
ed, and this led to report of a suicide
pact It is generally believed, however.
that the young men were unfamiliar with
gas and blew it out instead of turning off
the stop cock.
