JUDGE HENDERsoN's DEATH.
Letter Received Gives Particulars Of
His Sudden Death at Los Angeles.

/ The letter expected rom RELATIVES OF
| the late Judge H. c. henderson, con-
tanning particulars of his death. was
received by r. w. Hargrave Tuesday.
Mr.. Henderson's death was very sud-
den. and resulted from an attack of an
glna pectoris, or spasm of the chest.
| Evidences OF this trouble had been no
| ticed for some time prior to his death,
and the attending physician had in
| formed the family that his death nigh;
occur suddenly at any time. For the
past two years he had also been a suf-
| ferer from bladder trouble which had
affected his general health considera-
| bly,. on Wednesday, Aug. IL, the date
on which he died. he appeared to be in
| his usual health. and no evidences We're
noticeable which led the family to be-
llieve his end was near. In the evening
he walked TO a drug store near his
home. and after returning home COM
planned to his son Frank that he did not
feel we'll and was suffering some pain
but he did not consider ). anything Sc
,ious. AT about 1l:45 o'clock, after he
had retired. his daughter Lucy heard
him breathing heavily, and called her
brother. The judge complained of Sc
we're pains around the region of the
heart. Frank started from the room TO
heat water with which 10 relieve him,
and as he did so noticed his fathers
head fall back. He was gasping for
breath and quickly became unconscious.
All efforts to revive him failed, and the
physician, who arrived very few min
utes afterwards said he had probably
died within three minutes after the
head fell back. The doctor also told the
family that he had expected the end to
come as it did. but that it was cause for
congratulation tina. he was not COM
PEELED to linger along experiencing the
terrible suffering which often accompa-
MES the disease.
The death has one especially sad
phase in connection with it. as it was
expected that would be reunion of the
family at the Henderson homo early
this week, or upon the arrival of Judge
Hendersons brother, General T. j.
Henderson, who expected to arrive
there Sunday. He is a member of the
board of managers of Hcmes for Dis
abled Volunteer Soldiers, the members
of which were on their way to inspect
the home at Santa Monica.
The funeral at Los Angeles was held
early this week at the late home 1927
Malvern avenue. The body, aecompa-
MED probably by Mr.. Frank Henderson,
will arrive here Saturday afternoon.

THE cENTERvlLLE EXCURSION.
Was the Largest Ever Brought to the
City by Any Railroad.


The Iowa Central excursion to this
city from Centerville and points south.
| run yesterday by the Fifty-ffth Iowa
band, was the largest ever brought into
Marshalltown by any railroad The
crowd was estimated at 200 and the
ticket count does not cut down the
number to any great extent. one thou
sand tickets were sold at Centerville
alone, and 400 more were disposed of
on the train after it had started Nor
ava furnished 200, Abba 100, Oskaloosa
10 and Eddyville forty, a total of 2,035,
besides the band. The train was run
south IN two sections, composed OF
seventeen coaches. besides the two
way cars. The first section left at 6: 80.
and the second one hour later 1t is
estimated that on the trip north be-
tween 800 and 400 people were left,
at the different stations, it being inn
possible TO put any more on the train.
The eXcursionists despite the fact,
that they had to put up with many in
convenlences, and were crowded on
both trips for want of room, appeared
TO enjoy the outing. The south part
OF town was entirely eaten out" the
restaurants and different eating houses
on account of the fact that the grocery
stores and butcher shops were all clos
ed because of the Waterloo excursion,
being unable to obtain sufficient sup
ply TO satisfy the demand. With the
two trains and the extra equipment
they afforded, packed as the people
We're when they left the city, it was
hard to understand how the excursions
lists We're crowded onto the one train,
with less coaches. People came in on
top of the coaches, and all who could
rode on the engine tank, sitting on top
of the coal. The steps were jammed
and crowded so that it was really UNI
safe to attempt to carry the passengers.
Director George w. Landers, of the
band, says that he shoulders all the
responsibility of the lack of accommo-
dations, for he did not anticipate for
moment that the crowd would be so
large. II only figured on 1900" he
said, Sin case we had a good day, 9TH
erwise not over 500 or 800. The rail-
road company furnished all that / ask
ed for. and where the people came
from l am unable TO say"
The railroad company, cutting down
Mr. Landers' estimate somewhat, or
dered only 1000 special tickets for the
excursion, and it was necessary, in or
der to provide those who could not buy
at the stations where they boarded the
train, to resell tickets that had been
taken up. The newsboys, who had
charge Of the refreshment privileges on
the train coming up, were not able to
get more than half way thru the train
during the entire trip, so densely were
the coaches populated
In order to furnish all the accommo-
dations possible, the Central had two
baggage cars equipped with seats
Tuesday afternoon and they We're used
on the return trip. The excursion was
a record breaker, and was the fifth that
has been run from Centervile to this
city by the band.

A MIRACULOUS ESCAPE

yet escaping with only slight injuries.
is the story Of a miraculous escape
from death which r. A Day, of Chi
cago, will be able to tell. Day, who
was looking for work, sarted for the
bridge this morning, where a new
structure is being placed by the Great
Western. While on the approach with
the earth twenty feet below, the whistle
OF an east bound train warned him of
his danger. Not having time to re-
trace his steps, he thought to stand out
as far on the edge of the timber as
possible, and thus escape. He failed to
calculate the distance, however, for
when the engine passed he was struck
and hurled to the ground below. The
force of the fall was not sufficient to
even render him unconscious, for he
arose and was able to walk The ac-
cident occurred about IL o'clock this
forenoon, and laborers on the bridge
brought the injured man to this city,
where he was given medical attention.
His right side is quite badly bruised, as
is also the same side of his head, but
neither injury is considered serious.
He went to the Globe hotel. where he
will probably be confined to his bed for
few days. The doctor believes that
there are no internal INJURIES The
mans escape is little less than marvel
Gus, for had he been a little farther to-
ward the middle of the bridge he would
have been precipitated into the water
and probably drowned.
