GAS FUMES IN KITCHEN FATAL TO CITYWOMAN Mrs. McConnaughay Found Dead in Her Home by Husband. Death of Mrs. Kenneth E. McConnaughay, 33, whom her husband found asphyxiated in the kitchen of their home at 4629 North Pennsylvania street Monday night, was accidental, a coroner's deputy said today.

All friends and desciples of Morpheus who have btfen rudely awakened from peaceful slumbers at 4 a. m. by the abrupt rattling of milk bottles on his front porch can appreciate with what pleasure the city fathers bowed to him. V Morpheus appealed in the council chamber in form of a proposal providing the milk truck—that proverbial disturber of the citizens’ slumber—be prohibited from making milk deliveries to doorsteps before 5 a. m. during the winter months. He left in form of anew city ordinance carrying the council’s approval. Os course the august solons kept their dignity and did not publicly announce the real object of the new law.
