C0LDEST
May 26 In The Ohio Weather
History

Columbus, O., May 2S-The federal
weather bureau here yesterday an
nounced that Wednesday night was
the coolest May 26 in Ohio's weather
history which dates back to 1879. The
lowest temperature, 2S degrees, was
at Wooster. Frost was reported at
Canton, Bucyrus, Cleveland, Norwalls
and Wooster. Freezing occurred at
Canton and Wooster. Damage by
frost has not been estimated.
Fruit trees, berry bushes and flower
and vegetable garden plants had their
noses nipped according to reports
from various parts of Cuyahoga
county. Stunted growths of some
vegetables and fowers and death to
others are expected TO result. The
present cold snap so late in the year
recalls to old residents the record
breaking, disastrous frost OF June 3,
6, and Z, 1895, which destroye fruit
and vegetables throughout Ohio. In
Cleveland, south of Madison avenue,
all early vegetables and fruit were
destroyed.

CLOTHING.
Catches Fire While Woman Is
Riding Motorcycle
Severe Burns Sustained By
Mrs. KOtzenmOyer

A heated exhaust on motorcycle
on which she and her husband were
riding in Hiawatha park Thursday
evening ignited the clothing of Mrs.
Bert Kotzenmoyer and before the
flames could be beaten out the wo-
man was severely burned The in
juries are not fatal
The accident was very unusual and
has never occurred before in this
vicinity. Mr.. and Mrs. Kotzenmoyer
enjoy motorcycling together and were
making a turn around the race track
at the park at about 6 o'clock, when
the woman felt the heat of the flames.
She screamed and her husband
stopped the cycle, dismounted like a
flash and, as quickly as possible,
smothered the flames. 1t was only
the work of few seconds to do this,
but Mrs. Kotzenmoyer had been badly
burned.
There was scarcely time for the
woman to plunge into the nearby lake,
as her clothing was like dry tinder to
the flames. Practically all Of her
clothes we're destroyed by the flames
and 1t was at first thought that her
condition was extremely serious. An
examination by local surgeon re.
yealed that the burns were merely
painful and would cause no bad dis.
figurement.

CHANCES

Are Not Improving

New York, May 2S-'While the av.

DIR. Eugene l.. Fisk, director of the
Hygiene Life Extension Institute, in
speech before the delegates to the

ton of Manufacturers here today.
1T is true that in certain countries
such as Sweden, England and Wales,
Prussia and Denmark, there has been
gain in vitality at every age period
or life during the past quarter cen.
tury, but in this country, so far as
we can determine from our exceed

positive loss in vitality at middle

earlier age periods of life is due to
mans success in meeting the massive
frontal attacks of such enemies as
diphtheria, tuberculosis, typhoid fever
and diseases of infancy. The elm

also left its impress on the general
death rate.
But we have been less successful
in guarding against influences, agen-

compared to submarine attacks, or to
sapping and mining operations that
reveal no enemy until an explosion
occurs. Under this class of agencies
we include faulty living habits, which
tend to disturb the functions of the
body and impair the efficiency of our
organs, ultimately causing them to
break down; also chronic infections,
