CONSTANCE AGAIN WON.
Meta w. Gave Up the Race Because
of Accident to Her MainsafI.


of Accident to Her MainsafI.
The race between the Constance and
the Meta W. yesterday at Thunderbolt
was won by the Constance, the Meta
W., because of an accident to her
mainsail not being able to go over the
course. In fact the Meta w. played in
unusually hard luck: she had hardly
got under way at the start when she
had trouble with her jib, and though
this was fixed and she continued on her
course, before half of the course had
been sailed something went wrong with
her mainsail and so she had to give up
the race and, under only her jib. return
to her anchorage off the bluff
This gives to the Constance two
races, for though three were sailed, the
one previous to that of yesterday was
protested and by an agreement be-
tween. the owners of the boat will not
be counted in the series.

SUDDEN DEATH
Anthony oxander Dies Of APP

Anthony Oxander died very sud-
denly at his home No, enc North

about eight o'clock. He had been in
thelcity and complained of being i'll
and had returned to his home where
he was found a half hour 1atersIying
in his bed room > dead.
air. Oxander came to the city at
an early hour as was his custom. He
went to the Hawkins livery barn, his
place of business, and then went to
a barber shop and was shaved. Re-
turning to the livery stable he sat
down for few moments but com
plained3ot not feeling we'll and stated
that he would go home for little
while, Clarence Cunningham of the
Beechler drug store passed the barn
less than half hour afterwards and
Mr., Eli Hawkins called him and told
him to stop at tho Oxander home
and see how the gentleman was get
ting alongiMr. Oxander and Mr., Eli
Hawkins had made arrangements for
a trip to the country this morning
and he feltImore than usually CON
cerned about Mr.. Oxander. Nothing
serious was thought Of as Mr..
Oxander was troubled more or less
with asthma and had frequently to
leave his business land seek relief at
home, 1t was with this thought in
mind that Mr.. Hawkins directed that
Mr.. Cunningham should call at the
residence. The young man did as
directed and received no response to
his alarm at the front door. He found
the door unsecured and pushing it
open entered the hall way and found
Mr.. oxander'si coat and hat as they
had been removed. He went on
through the hall and up stairs to the
gentleman's chamber and was
shocked to find him lying on the
floor, face down, dead. He had re-
moved his shoes and had evidently
seated himself on the bed and then
fell forward to the floor. A.
Doctor L. A. Rogers who resides in
the immediate neighborhood was
called and responded Immediately
but to no purpose for the. gentleman
was quite dead.
His face was quite Iivid and all the
characteristics of the case pointed
toward ,appoplexy as the cause Of
death. He had in all probability been
dead but short time when he was
found by Mr.. Cunningham. He had
left the livery barn less than half an
hour when the news of his death
was conveyed to the; city
He was alone at his home, Mrs
Oxander and children being in Eddy,
vile visiting at the parental Nc
Laughlin home. The lady was immedi'
ately summoned and arrived at the
home during the morning.
Anthony Oxander was about forty
five years of age. He came to the
Iowa country from Mansfield, Ohio
and engaged in the purchase and
sale of horses. He came to Oskalooss
about sixteen years ago and fol
twelve years of this time he has beer
engaged in the horse business with
Hawkins Brothers. The firm has
purchased stock in all parts of this and
adjoining counties and the deceased
was widely known to all farmers who
had stock for sale.
y The arrangements for the funeral
will be announced later.
The deceased was popularity known
in the city and his friends were legion
in all the neighboring towns and
cities. His sudden death is a shock
TO the entire community and. the
bereaved wife and children have the
sympathy of hosts of friends.
