While unloading hay in the barn
near Scotch Ridge, he was struck in
the Iback by the hay fork whose rope
attaching it to the pulley had be

thirty feet.
One prong of tho fork (about an
inch square), penerated his back in
the region of his kidneys a distance
said to be four inches and gouged
out a very ugly wound, as its weight
made it fall over and out of his
flesh.
The wound bled very profusely
and it was feared fie would bleed to
death. However, the flow was
stopped and he began to recover

In n signed letter to the Maumee
Advance-Era of last Week, J. M.
Ashley, of Toledo, the head of sev
eral electric companies1, denied any
interest in the purchase of the Sub
urban Light and Power company. He
states that the Maumee Valley Elec
thic company and the Auglaize Pow
er company, of which he Is the head,
are manufacturers and wholesalers
only, and that the "Ashleys" do not
plan to become retailers of electric
ity whatever.
Whether or not Mr. Ashley and
his companies have; absorbed the
Suburban company, does not make
any material difference to the people
of this community. The people of
Perrysburg should have interest
enough in the matter to know just
how and by whom this village is go
ing to be supplied with light and
power. Why the secrecy about the
project, and the keeping of the in
dividual or company names In the

money we pay for lighting flows in
