A Novel Verdict
The following was the coroner's verdict upon the death of Fred Sager of
Chelsea: "That the said Fred Sager,
in the county aforesaid, in and unto
himself then and there being, in the
peace of God and of the people of this
state, feloniously, voluntarily and of
his malice aforethought, made an assault; and that the said Fred Sager
then and there, with a certain razor of
the value of 25 cents, which the said
Fred Sager then and there held in his
hand, himself, upon his throat then
and there feloniously, voluntarily and
of his malice aforethought, did strike
and give to himself then and there,
with the lazor aforesaid, upon his
throat aforesaid, one mortal wound of
the breath of four inches and of tbe
depth of one inch or more, of which
said mortal wound the said Fred, Sager
at his residence in the township of
Sylvan, in the county aforesaid, lan;
guished and languished for some time,
jn the county aforesaid, of that mortal
would, died. And so the jurors aforesaid upon their oaths aforesaid say
that tbe said Fred Sager, then and
there in the manner aforesaid as a
felon of himself, killed himself as murdered, against the peace and dignity of
the people of the state of Michigan."
. Another Close Call.
Tlie Ypsilanti High School had another narrow escape from being burned down last week Tuesday night. It
was during a thunder storm that
lightning struck a pole, bearing a high
tension wire of the Washtenaw Light
& Power Co. The wife was burned off
and fell on a feed wire near the* high
school and thisin turn was burned Off
in such a way that it fell on a gas pipe
so that the gas in the pipe was set on
Are in the bath room in the high
school. The ceiling was set on fire
but the room being closed tight the
smoke soon smothered the flames before much damage was done. The gas
in the pipe was still burning but the
heat melted off the pipe* and the melted metal fell down tbe pipe and shut
off the meter. When the janitor entered the building the next morning it
was found to be full of smoke. This is
the fourth tin^e that the building has
been tired.

An interesting matter for scientists
to investigate is the statement that
insane cases, as reported to the judge
of probate, occur periodically. During
the past week petitions have been Hied
for the commitment of four insane people In tbe county. The records iu the
probate office show that whenever one
case bas been reported that at least
three or four others have followed
within a few days Many weeks, and
sometimes two or three months, pass
with no case reported but invariably
when the spell, or period, is broken, a
number come in quick succession. It
is strange, but it is the record.—Times

thereby saving a large per cent of insurance losses and much life.
Therefore, be It Resolved, That it is the sense of this convention
that the good offices of the companies here represented be tendered to
Proif. Dodd in his great work of educating the people of Michigan in
the true method of saving life and property from destruction by lightning, and that the system of Dodd & Strathers is hereby recommended
to all patrons of Mutual Insurance in Michigan as the correct system
of protecting building from lightning.
Be it Further Resolved, The thanks and appreciation of this con-,
vention is hereby extended to Prof. Dodd for his instructive and gener-'
ous lecture, and that these resolutions be printed in the report  of this
convention, and a copy of this resolution be presented to Prof. Dodd.
