Word has been received here of the death of Henry Haas, 40, who met accidental death Wednesday in Milwaukee where he is employed at the Seeman body company plant. Nothing further is known of the accident except that he was electrocuted when he came in contact with a live wire.

The deceased is a brother to Mrs. Richard Lau, 951 Chase street, city (Wisconsin Rapids), and to Mrs. Paul Schroeder, Vesper.

He was born in Dorchester, Wis., in 1887, and besides his sisters has three surviving brothers, Otto at the Schroeder farm in Vesper, and Fred and William at Stetsonville. He visited his relatives in Wood county last May.

Funeral services will be held Saturday afternoon from the Lau home at 2:00 p.m. with interment to be made at the Forest Hill cemetery, city. Rev. E. H. Walthers will be in charge.
