Twelve deaths from the effects of the heat have been reported during the past three days, besides numerous prostrations which may prove fatal. Yesterday four more deaths occurred from heat exhaustion, and a number of persons were prostrated who are now in a critical condition. The deaths thus far reported are: Rebecca BEAM, waitress, Union avenue John MUEHLBACH, laborer Joseph AXE, teamster William SPAIN, bartender John FLORING, barber two children of Adolph HOLDEN, who lives on Southwest boulevard Mike BLYER, driver Henry C. SCHOEN, carpenter Edward O'LEARY, contractor Frederick HELM, an Independence avenue grocer Johanna KUECHLMAN, who resides at Twenty-fourth and State Line Streets. Persons now lying in a critical condition on account of sunstrokes are: Ellis HARRIS, capitalist, 2211 Park avenue F. A. CALUMBACK, blacksmith, All Saints' hospital Mike HALL, teamster, city hospital John SAMON, laborer, Altop elevator B. FIEHL, city hospital F. J. BALLORHITE, telegraph operator, city hospital George CARROLL, moulder, 1422 Belvidere avenue. There are now seven cases of heat prostration at the city hospital. The deaths yesterday were: Mike BLYER, a carpenter, at Sixteenth and Madison avenue Frederick HELM, at 900 Independence avenue Johanna KUECHLMAN at Twenty-fourth and State Line streets. The police patrol wagon was kept incessantly moving all day. In half a dozen instances the victims of the heat were removed before the wagon arrived on the scene. Hence the number of cases reported were considerably less than the number which really occurred. The interior of the police station resembled a hospital. Police Surgeon IUEN was busy all day and he handled the numerous cases in a masterly manner. Ice was rubbed over the patients and cold ice water was thrown over them by bucketfuls. In some of the cases the blood was at such a high temperature and was coursing so violently through the veins that a little rubbing made it ooze through the pores. A CAPITALIST OVERCOME. Mr. Ellis HARRIS, a capitalist, living at 2211 Park avenue, staggered from his carriage into his office at 10 West Missouri avenue yesterday afternoon at 5 o'clock. While out driving he had been overcome by the heat. Dr. H. C. BAKER was summed and Mr. HARRIS was again placed in his carriage after being cooled to some extent by applications of ice. At Fifteenth street and Grand avenue the sun stricken man fell into a comatose state, which so resembled death that Drs. BAKER and FOSTER considered him dead. The pulsations of the heart were so slight that they could not be felt. For half an hour Mr. HARRIS lingered in this state and it was given out among his friends that he was dead. Toward 7 o'clock in the evening Mr. HARRIS began to breathe convulsively, and his condition became much improved. Dr. BAKER believes that he has a slight chance for recovery in his favor. Frederick HELM, a grocer at 900 Independence avenue, died last evening at 7:30 o'clock from the effects of the heat. HELM had been complaining several days of headache occasioned by the sultry weather. At 7 o'clock last evening he went up to his room and a half hour later was found dead. His body long after death was above the normal temperature. Johanna KUECHLMAN, living at Twenty-fourth and State Line streets, died at her home in the morning at 4:30 o'clock from heat exhaustion. She began complaining at 4 o'clock and a half hour later was dead. Her husband is an employee at Armour's packing house. Mrs. KUECHLMAN will be buried at Elmwood Cemetery this afternoon. The unknown man who was found lying on the street at Eighteenth and Oak streets at 1 o'clock yesterday morning was taken to the city hospital, where he was identified as Mike BLYER, driver of a Muehlbach beer wagon. At 2 o'clock in the afternoon he died. He was afflicted with fearful convulsions, and his temperature rose to 108°. Ice applied to his body melted like thawing snow. BLYER leaves a family in this city. DIED AFTER SEVERAL DAYS OF SUFFERING. Henry C. SCHOEN, who was overcome by the heat several days ago, died yesterday morning at 2:30 o'clock at his home, corner Sixteenth and Madison avenue. He had a wife but no children. He belonged to the order of Druids and his funeral services will be conducted by the Druids at 2:30 to-morrow afternoon. Four weeks ago SCHOEN fell from a scaffold, badly injuring his head by the fall, and it is believed that this together with the sunstroke caused his death. F. A. CALUMBACK, a blacksmith at Thirteenth and Walnut streets, was overcome by the heat at 6 o'clock in the evening. He was removed to his home on Broadway near Eleventh street, and subsequently to All Saints' hospital, in a critical condition. It is feared that he will die. Mike HALL, a teamster, was overcome by the heat at Twenty-first and Walnut streets and fell from his wagon to the street. He was removed to the city hospital by the patrol wagon. John SAMON, a laborer, was overcome by the heat near the gas works. He was taken to his home near the Alton elevator in the police ambulance. B. FIEHL was stricken down by the heat at Twelfth and Freight streets. He was removed to the city hospital. F. J. BALLORHITE, a telegraph operator, was sunstruck at 4 o'clock in the afternoon and was taken to the city hospital. His identity was not established until his pockets were searched and letters were found in them addressed to him at this and other cities. George CARROLL was sunstruck at Independence avenue and Locust street in the evening at 7 o'clock. He was taken to the central police station in the ambulance and subsequently to his home, 1422 Belvedere, in a critical condition. He is a married man and a moulder. Billy SPAIN, the bartender, who died from heat and exhaustion at First and Grand avenue Wednesday, will be buried this morning. His funeral takes place from St. Patrick's church. The funeral arrangements have not yet been made for Edward O'LEARY, the contractor, who died from the effects of sunstroke Wednesday evening. Two of his sons are now on their way to this city from Minneapolis. O. H. SNELLY who was overcome by the heat on Wednesday, is hovering between life and death at his boarding house, 1102 Pacific street. He is suffering with cramps but has a bare chance of recovery. All yesterday afternoon he suffered with convulsions which continued from half an hour to an hour at a time. At such times his struggles were terrible to witness and it was with difficulty that three persons held him in his bed while in one of his fits. ========================================================== (I have no connection with any of these families but I'd appreciate knowing if you found this posting helpful.) johnobrien@kc.rr.com ========================================================== neirbo10 Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

The Historical Society in Columbia, MO has microfilms of nearly every newspaper in the state, going back as far as they've been able to acquire. I don't know whether they will look up information and send it; I'm sure there is at least a small fee if so. I live nearby but don't get there very often. If I should get there any time soon I'll certainly look. Do you have a death date and or place for his wife? If she died in MO, I might as well search for both of them. You may write me directly at VanetteHobbs@aol.com if you like. I see he was buried in Elmwood Cemetery. It is a gorgeous old cemetery and still active. They have an extensive website at http://www.elmwoodcem-kc.org/ with many photos. They might have some information too, such as who owned his cemetery plot. Good luck to you!

Detectives ENNIS and BOYLE raided the rooms of Herbert WILLIAMS, in the Mercantile building at the southeast corner of Sixth and Wyandotte streets yesterday. They secured a complete opium smoking outfit, the most perfect, the police say, that has ever fallen into their hands. The detectives arrested WILLIAMS in his room and charged him with vagrancy. They claim he has been keeping an opium den in his room for some time. The room is situated on the fourth floor of the building. Ah SING and Sam WISE, who have laundries in the vicinity of the Mercantile building, went to police headquarters yesterday afternoon and identified two of the pipes found in WILLIAMS' room as having been stolen from them. ====================================================== (I have no connection with this family but I'd appreciate knowing if you found this posting helpful.) johnobrien@kc.rr.com ====================================================== neirbo10 Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Hi John, Thanks for the posting....I do not have connection to what you sent, however, was wondering if you had access to other divorces? I am looking for a divorce for a Fred Robert Michael and a Ida M. Neusenther, married July 19th, 1906. The 1930 census has Fred being divorced. Thanks, Tom

Tom, no, I don't have access to other divorces. Sorry. I know how difficult it is to find info on divorces, so whenever I see them listed in a newspaper, I post the item.
