HEAT MAY HAVE
CAUSED DEATH
HiIburn KuGIer Complained Of
it Yesterday, Found Dead
in Bed Today

Retiring about 1890 o'clock last
night, Hilburn Kugler, a boarder at
the northwest corner of Front and
Monroe streets, was found dead in
bed at GAS o'clock this morning, death
having been due TO heart disease, the
heat Of yesterday evidently being a
cause. He was about 65 years Of
age and was employed by the Belts
Machine Company. His sister, Mrs.
Fannie Richenback, of No. 500 West
Second street, survives him. The
body was removed to her home.
Deputy Coroner Myers made an in
vestigation and found that the man
had complained much of the heat yes
terday and seemed TO be suffering
from it, He had good habits and re-
tired about 1880 o'clock. When he
did not arise at his accustomed hour
to go to his work TINS morning the
others in the house went to awaken
him and found him in bed dead.

THREE STORY FALL:
BABY NOT HURT

That little Francis Norris, aged 3
years, son Of Mrs. Millie Norris, of
No. 100 East Front street, is living to-
day is due entirely to good fortune.
The little fellow fell from a third
story window Of his home to the side
walk yesterday, and when picked up
it was thought he was dead. He
showed signs of life, however, and
the patrol wagon hurried the young
ster to the Delaware Hospital, where
physicians, who made an examination
of the child's body, we're unable TO
find any broken bones.
The child had regained conscious
ness this morning and made "goo goo"
eyes at the physicians and nurses
while talking and laughing and car
ried on just like a happy baby that
had never had a pain. The hospital
attaches were surprosde and the fran
tic mother became treasured when
told her baby would live.
The child had pushed a chair over
to the window to see the "choo choo"
cars go byand leaned too far out los
ing his balance
