KILLED BY TRAIN
Aged Man while Crossing Track Is
Hit by Fast Train,

Thursday last was marked by the
sudden blotting out of a human life
when John B. Dunn was killed by
being struck by the southbound G.
H., & ID. flyer.
Mr.. Dunn, who was 8S years of
age, and very deaf and nearly blind,
was out taking his usual walk and
was about to cross the railroad track
at Main street. An eye witness to
the accident heard the train coming
and saw the aged man hurry as IL to
cross the track ahead of the train,
but he was not quick enough and
was struck by the engine and hurled
about 200 feet, falling on the side
track opposite the depot.
Death was instantaneous evident
ly, and although the body was not
badly crushed, the head was nearly
severed at the neck.
The funeral services were held on
Saturday.
He leaves a widow and many 9TH
er relatives

BAsHFUL YOUNG MAN.

A bashful young man was invited
out to dine with his best girl. He
sat opposite the mirror and discov-
cred that he had forgotten to comb
his hair. Then he dropped his fork,
and as he stopped to pick 1t up he
upset his coffee. Matters went on
from bad to worse, until at last the
young man quit eating and put his
hands under the table. The loose
end of the table cloth was in his
lap. He touched it and turned pale.
He thought it was his shirt and he
had in his excitement while dressing
forgotten to put the garment in his
trousers. He hurriedly stuffed the
supposed shirt in his trousers. Aft
erwards. when the family arose from
the table. there was a crash. The
dishes lay on the floor in broken
mass. The young man pulled three
feet of table cloth out Of his pants
and broke for the woods.-Botkins

BOWLING GREEN NORMAL
Northwestern OHIO Normal School
Assured for Wood County.

All doubt as to the validity of the
title to the site having been removed
at conference at the Boody house
Saturday afternoon, the location of
the new Northwestern Ohio normal
school in Bowling Green is finally as
sured, says the Blade, and ground
will be broken as sSon as frost leaves
the ground next spring.
Attending the meeting in Toledo
were Attorney General Timothy S.
Hogan and Assistant Attorney GEN
eral MCGEE, representing the state;
President Collins and members Nc
Donnell and Begg, of the normal
school board appointed by Governor
Harmon, and the following citizens
of Bowling Green: Earl d. Bloom,
Representative Frank w. Thomas,
Judge r. A. Baldwin, b. F. James,
City Solicitor w. B. James, r. J. Eb-
erly, N R. Harrington and J. N. Eas-
ley.
The legal question was as to
whether the state would derive le-
gal title to the site of S21s acres, for
which the city bonded itself after
submitting the question to vote. The
transfer from the former owners OF
the property was made to ]. N. Eas-
ley, who decided it to the state on
behalf of the- rifv
Attorney General Hogan said that,
while he could not approve the man
ner in which the transfer was made,
he was convinced that the state
would be safe in accepting the deed,
taking into consideration the unan-
unity of sentiment among Bowling
Green citizens.
There is now available S15O,000
for beginning construction work, and
the state emergency board has allow
ed the trustees $1,000 for incidental
expenses. 1t is expected that the
trustees will advertise within the
next two months for construction of
the buildings. 1t had been expected
that the school would be opened in
the fall of 1912, but the delay caused
by the controversy over the title to
the site probably will prevent this.

ABANDONED AUTO
After Driving Stolen Car to PerN'
burg where it is Disabled

On Friday morning Marshai Mills
was informed that an automoule
had been standing at the corner Of
West Front and West Boundafy
streets since early Thursday motn-
ing. He went to investigate and
brought the machine down town and
stored it in Wallace's garage. 1t
was not long before he discovefed
that the auto was owned by A: l.
Brown of Oak street, East Ioieoo
and that 1t had been stolen Wednes
day night and after being driven u
Perrysburg it had become disable
and was abandoned.
The tool case had been taken ou
and evidently an effort had pee
made to repair the engine, whlc
gave evidence of having been drive
until too hot.
The fact that the robes and too
and other equipment was not take
from the car is remarkable as u
machine had evidently been standir
two nights and one day where II
thieves had left it, and no one ha
given it any care or attention.
Mr.. Brown came up and had Il
car towed down to Toledo for r
pairs.

ASTONISHING ECONOMIC VALUE
OF WRENS.

During the outbreak of Rocky
Mountain locusts in Nebraska in
1874-1877, Prof. Samuel Aughey saw
q long-billed marsh wren carry 80
locusts to her young in an hour. At
this rate, for seven hours a day, a
brood would consume 210 locusts in
= day, and the passerine birds OF the
eastern half of Nebraska, allowing
only 20 broods to the square mile,
would destroy 162,771, 900 of the
pests The average locust weighs
about 15 grains. and is capable each
day of consuming It's own weight of
standing forage crops. corn ana
wheat. Tho locusts eaten by the
nestlings would therefore be able to
destroy in one day 174,397 tons of
crops. which at $40 per ton would be
worth s1,743,s7o.
Robert Kennicott, most careful
and reliable observer, ascertaineo
that 1000 insects were carried to
their young by a single pair of house
wrens In a day. At this rate young
brood of wrens probably destroy TO-
600 insects before leaving the nest.
According to the usual proportion in
the food of young wrens, about 5000
of these are insects that devastate
crops, including nearly 600 cut
worms.

CONFESSED THEIR GUILT
Mcnamara Brothers Acknowledge
their Awful Crimes.

Murder will OUT was again
proven true adage, when the Nc
Namara brothers. who had previous
ly declared themselves innocent, vol
unfairly entered court and after
withdrawing their pleas formerly en-
tered, pleaded guilty to the bastard
ly crime Of year ago last October,
when 81 innocent lives were eacri-
feed in an explosion and fire that
destroyed the Los Angeles Times.
Various reasons are ascribed for
the change in pleas, but the real rea-
son may not be known at present,
although It is thought that the chain
of evidence had drawn 30 closely
about them that they deemed it the
only way to save their miserable
lives-pleading guilty and asking
mercy of the court.
On Tuesday they received sentence
James B. Mcnamara, confessed
murderer, was given life sentence
in San Quentin penitentiary, while
his brother, John J. Mcnamara, sec
retary Of the International Associa-
tion of Bridge and Structural Iron
Workers, who confessed to the dyna-
miting of the Llewellyn Iron works,
was sentenced to Is years in the pen
itentiary.
The sentence imposed upon them,
while seemingly widely divergent, are
in effect likely to be nearly identi-
cal.
John j. Mcnamara is As years old.
His sentence, with allowance for
good behavior, will take him well
on toward 60. That he will have any
considerable span of life after his
prison years is not believed.

FOOTBALL SEASON OVER
Perrysburg High School Boys Feel
Happy Over Results.

The Perrysburg High School foot
ball team surely lived up to that
threat that they made some time ago
as has been demonstrated in the fol-
lowing games which closed the
p. Fl. s. season.
Perrysburg High was scheduled
to play the st. Patrick's of Toledo
on Thanksgiving morning but the
st. Patrick's failed to make an ap-
pearance. (Yellow fever is what
p. H. s. thinks.) On this account
IPerrysburg claims to be the winner
by the score of 1 to O.
When it was found that the st.
lPatrick's were not coming Capt.
i ll"Gene" hustled around and secured
