FIELD SUPT. OVERBECK
is SERIOUSLY BURNED

Earl Overlook, field superintendent
for the Ohio Gas & Fuel Co., was
seriously burned Wednesday after
noon, his right hand being badly
burned and his hair singed and his
cheeks slightly injured. The doctor
bound up his hand with "first aid"
remedies, but would not say how
badly it was burned until he could
give it further treatment few hours
later.
Overlook was assisting in starting
the gas through frozen meter in
Lafayette tp. when escaping gas was
ignited by torch. Suddenly the gas
flared up and before Overlook could
dodge back to a safe distance he was
caught in the blaze.

ONLY THREE true
BILLS ARE RETURNED.
By Grand Jury In Session Mon
day Morning. Indictment of
Edward E. Jones for Bigamy
Only One of Importance.
WIVES MEET AND OFFER
EACH OTHER SYMPATHY

Medina county seems to have it on
some of her neighboring sisters as re-
CARDS the amount of crime performed
within her borders if the recent ac-
ton of the grand jury can be taken
as a criterion.
The grand jury met in regular ses-
sion on Monday of this week and but
three cases came before them for con-
sideration. But seven witnesses
were examined and three true bills
were returned. Last term of court
the grand jury had some rs or W
cases up for investigation and re-
turned some twenty odd true bills.
Not for many moons has there been
such a dearth of crime in old Medina
county.
The first bill returned was against
John Mandish, of Wadsworth, who
was promptly indicted for cutting and
stabbing. The indictment charged
him with the assault on the person
of Paul Sentwanoc on Nov. 2.
Bill No. was against James STAN
isich, also of Wadsworth, who was
indicted for assault in menacing
manner. The alleged attack was
made on the person of Mike Grano-
wich on Christmas day.
The third bill and the only one of
much Importance was that OF Edward
E. Jones. According to the evidence
submitted to the grand jury Jones
married Ossie E. Duke on July 22,
1909. The marriage ceremony was
performed in Windsor, Can. The
couple separated, the wife locating in
Barberton and Jones came to Medina
county, where for some time he work
ed as a farm hand for Walter Clark.
On Oct. 16 this year Jones married
Carrie Beard, daughter of H. G.
Beard, a farmer who lives on Route
2. The second marriage was per
formed in Medina, following which
the couple went to Detroit to live. In
December the fact that Jones hao
never been divorced from his first
wife came to light thru the filing Of
her divorce petition in Summit coun
ty courts. Jones was Immediately
apprehended and placed under ar
rest in Detroit, brought back to Me
dina and lodged in the county Jail
He is said to have admitted the big
amy charge but offered the excuse
that he labored under the impression
that his first wife had obtained /;
divorce previous to his marriage II
the Beardsgirl. The jury took M
\ time to return a true bill agains
Jones for bigamy.
Both Jones' wives were in court
and testified before the grand jury
Mrs. Jones No. 1 is a large, portl,
lady, while the second Mrs. Jones i
short and slight of stature. Afte
an introduction both ladies retired il
an ante room and swApped confdenc
es. AS they parted Mrs. Jones Nc

for wife No. 2. :,
Jones enjoys the unique distinction

The funeral of Polly Emeline, wife
of F. l. Hawkins, will be held from
the home on Friday, Jan. 16, at 80
p. m.

wife of Mr.. Hawkins 36 years ago.
In 1882 the couple moved to Indiana
where they have since made their

ill health for a number of years,
which necessitated her being confined
to the home much of the time.
Deceased is survived by two sons

Youngstown, besides the husband.
Another son born to the union died
about eight years ago. b.

from the end of the present pave
ment to the corporation line. The
plans call for sixteen foot pave
ment, which will connect with ten
foot strip at the corporation line. The
county has agreed to pay about 80
per cent of the cost-which will total
approximately $4,000. That the es-
innate may be considerably higher
within the next week was the sad
news impaired by the engineer. The
increase, if it becomes effective, will
be due to the raise in the price of ce-
ment which is looked for next week.
Pending this announcement by the
cement companies an accurate esti-
mate could not be- presented. The
plans were approved without altera-
ton and the solicitor instructed to
draw up resolutions with a view to
collect assessments.
Council was also questioned by the
engineer as to what action it was 60
ing to take in respect to paving N.
Court street from Union street north
to the corporation line. Having pass
ed some preliminary Legislation coun-
Gil members appeared to be Of the
opinion that the county would now
60 ahead and finish the work, since
it was to be done under county super
vision by reason of the fact that the
commissioners donated $4,000 toward
the cost. The new body received a Sc
we're jolt when it was informed that
the county could do nothing relative
to letting the contract until they hac
seen the color of the towns money
something they haven't seen so far
Another jolt came in the form of ar
announcement that costs would jump

900 a mile. The distance to be paved
is about one-third of mile. Council
is unable to assess the usual amount
along this strip for the reason that
the law specifies no paving assess
ment can be for more than one-third
the valuation Of the property against
which the assessment is made. What
it could do and should do, however,
is to issue bonds in a sufficient sum to
make the improvement; after the i'm
provement is made have the abutting
property appraised and then make
the assessment. The commissioners
are anxious to get at this strip this
spring but in the absence Of further
action by the council their hands are
tied.
The appropriation ordinance for the
first half of 1920 was passed as fol-
