bereavement as has beer the lives Of
this venerable couple. Of the five
children, ten grandchildren and four
great-grandchildren with which they
have been blessed, upon none has
death placed its whitening hand.
Believers in and consistent follow
ers of the simple life, the occasion
Of their sixtieth wedding anniversary
will be observed quietly within the
family circle, at the old Root home-
stead, COZ West Liberty street, where
all OF the generations will be assem-
bled except one son, F. R. Root, and
grandson, Allen, who are absent from
town.
A rather singular feature of the
occasion is that it marks the fifth
wedding anniversary of grandchild,
Mrs. Marshall Bryant, also the ami
versary of her birth. The latter's
mother and father, Mr.. and Mrs. J.
I. Calvert, have been married IS
years, thus the combined years of
marriage of grandparents, parents
and daughter, total an even one hun
dred years.
The lives of Mr.. and Mrs. A. I.
Root are an open book to the people
OF Medina and Medina county and
require no words of praise. Their
friends are legion, the best wishes of
whom are with them on this bright
anniversary day. The Sentinel joins
in extending greeting and congratu-
lations to Mr.. and Mrs. Root, and
the hope that they may be spared to
behold the dawn Of many similar an
niversary days.

BEAGLE CLUB TO STAGE
TRY-OUT AT CHIPPEWA
Ohio Hounds to be Put to Test
Next Monday

OF interest to Medina county
sportsmen and others throughout this
part Of the state is the announcement
by the Northern Ohio Beagle club of
its first annual field trial for beagles,
to be held at Chippewa Lake next
Monday, Oct. 3.
The club extends q special invita-
ton to all those who have never seen
some Of the best rabbit hounds in the
country run in competition. VI
Hounds are alraedy entered from
as far west as Illinois and as far
east ais Delaware. The running
grounds, rabbit supply and hotel ac-
Communications at Chippewa Lake are
ideal for this sport.
No artificial means are resorted to,
such as dragging, etc, but the hounds
'are put down to work their ground
just as thousands Of men will put
them down to hunt out the bunnies
when the open season rolls around in
November, and the work which each
entry does in rousting out his rabbit
is judged right along with the work
he does in trailing the rabbit after
routing him.
The judges will be ]. ]. Waldron
Of Pittsburg and G. B. Peterman Of
Dillonvale, O., two men with years Of
experience in the field trial game be-
hind them.

GAS EXPLOSION NEARLY
KILLS MEDINA BOY

An explosion of gas m the bakery
room of the H. r. H. Grocery Co.,
about $50 last Friday morning, split
the brick chimney from oven to cell
ing, knocked down Louis Walters, the
baker, and nearly killed John Barrow,
Walters assistant.
The latter had just struck match
to light the oven, when there was a
terrific explosion with the results as
stated. Barrows was seriously burn
ed about the head, arms and upper
part of his body, and for a short time
it was feared that his injuries might
prove to be fatal. They will not,
however, tho he will be confined to
his home, corner of Bishop and Elm
wood streets, for several weeks.
The cause of the accident is not
exactly known, but the most plaus-
ible theory thus far advanced is that
the gas valve in some manner became
Jared loose, or was not entirely turn
ed off the night before, the escaping
gas completely filling the big oven
during the night. ,f~ &,s
The sound caused by the explosion
was heard by many citizens several
blocks away, among them Deputy
Sheriff Hange, who says his first
thought was that maybe one of the
local bank vaults has been blown.

Food Stuffs From Many Cars
Strew Track

A train OF lo refrigerator cars on
the B. & 0. were wrecked last Fri
day mile northwest of bonneville,
when wheel of one of the cars
came off due to a hot box. The cars
were nearly all loaded with food
stuffs and the train, fast freight,
was travelling at high speed.
Huge consignments of meat, eggs,
grapes, etc, were strewn for rods

complete and sorriest looking wreck

The company estimated the loss at
about $250,000. Being unable to sal
wage the food stuffs, citizens were
given the privilege of helping them
selves, for the sake of cleaning up the
mess.
