Two Lafayette Men Are Dead and Two Others Dying As a Result of Mistaking Fungus. Jacob May and William Ogden are dead and Michael May and George Baudy are dying as the result of eating mushrooms. The May brothers have been operating a tile mill at Altamont, Tippecanoe county, for years and occupy a house near the factory. Saturday afternoon they planned to have a mushroom feast for supper and Jacob May went into the Mirinsky woods and gathered a large number of fungus growth. The supper was prepared by George Baudy and those who partook were Jacob May, William Orgen, Michael May and Mr. Baudy. Isaac Brickler was a guest, but did not eat any of the mushroom's.

Sunday evening the condition of Jacob May and William Ogden had become critical and they were taken to St. Elizabeth’s hospital in Lafayette Mr. May died aft 6 o’clock Monday morning and Mr. Ogden at 8:15 o’clock. Michael May and George Baudy did not yield to the effects of the poison as quickly as their companions and their condition did not become critical untli later, when both were taken to St. Elizabeth’s hospital.

Jacob May, who collected the mushrooms, had been gathering the fungus growth for years and was supposed to be able to distinguish the deadly varieties from the harmless ones. Mr. Baudy, who prepared them for the table, has had years of experience in gathering them and cooking them and no one can understand how the men were poisoned* unless several of the poisonous variety were mixed with the others and escaped Mr. Baudy’s scrutiny when they in the iron skillet in which they were friend. If there were any poisonous ones in the collection they would have poisoned the whole mess. When there is any suspicion about preparing mushrooms for the table, people sometimes use a silver spoon or drop a silver dime into the vessel. If. there are any poisonous mushrooms in the collection the silver is blackened.

Dr. F. L. Sharrer to Move From Francesville Soon.

Francesville, Ind, Dr, F. L. Sharrer, physician and surgeon of this place, will leave Oct. Ist, for Guthrie, Okla., where he Iras beeivwipointed chief surgeon tor the, Guthrie City Hospital to succeed Dr. W. C. West, who is being unavoidably detained in Europe on account of the war. The hospital is non-sectarian and co-opera-tive, and is patronized extensively by the physicians and surgeons of Oklahoma and Arkansas. The position is one of great responsibility and Or. Sharrer was chosen after a long list of applicants was considered. Dr. Sharrer graduated from the medical department df Illinois, university eight years ago. Immediately after leaving college he spent a year in Toledo as interne of the city hospital, then came here, since which time he has developed to be one of the most successful surgeons in northern Indiana. He is a young man possessed of natural suTgicil ability, has been especially successful in major surgery, ’and his training, combined with his several years’ practical experience as both physician and surgeon, has made him well qualified for the important duties of chief surgeon he is about to assume. Dr. Sharrer had been urged a number of times to open a hospital here, owing to sentiment created by his eminent success in many difficult and delicate surgical cases handled by him in this part of the state, and he had seriously considered the thought of such an undertaking,, but finally concluded that the possibilities for patronage were too limited to warrant the project. His new duties will give him ample opportunity to specialize in surgery, which has always held his deepest interest. He is very popular among the members of the medical profession and a genial gentleman.
