The recent completion of a cooperative
studio building on West SiXty-seventh-st.. near
Central Park, marks d decided advance in the
evolution of the studio in New-York 1t was
built by artists for themselves and other
artists, and in everything, from an abundance
of north light to the polished floors and bur
lap covered walls, it is up to the mark.
The building is skgscraper for that part
Of the city and will accommodate from twenty
TO twenty-five artists, with ample room for
working studios and living rooms That the
building may not suffer, as have many
other studio buildings by having the light cut
off ty the erection of bIanketng structures

miles northwest of the city. had a close
call from being fatally injured by being
wound up in the engine drive wheel.
The engine, it seems. had stopped on
a center, as the steam was turned on,
and Mr. Longnecker, after turning off
the steam, got up on one end of the
wheel to start it. There was sufficient
live steam in the cylinder to give the
wheel sudden motion, and the man was
wound around the shaft within it. A
compound comminuted fracture of the
wrist was sustained, besides many
severe bruises. He was brought to his
home in this city.

DR.. N. L. BUNcE DEAD.
One of the Early Settlers Of This Cit,
Passes Away in Los Angeles.

Passes Away in Los Angeles.
Word was received by relatives liv-
ing near this city brings the news of
the death of DR.. N. l.. Bunce, one of
the early settlers of Marshalltown and
at one time member of the city coun-
Gil and one of the leading practitioners
of the city. Prior to little less than
two years ago, when Dr. Bunce left for
Los Angeles to make his home with a
niece, he lived for many years on the
property on West Jerome street, west
of Sixth street. There Mrs. Bunce died
and about a year later DR.. Bunce left.
He was n member of the city council,
representing the Second ward, at the
time when the present water works sys-
tenn was installed in 1876, when the
late O. B. Barrows was mayor, and
served until 1879.
Nathaniel l.. Bunce was born in HUI
ron county, o., May s, 1929. and was
IA years of age at the time of his death.
He received his education and studied
medicine and graduated at the Western
Reserve College, Cleveland, in 1851. He
located in Marshalltow in August, 1887.
His practice called for miles over
the then thinly settled country, and this
ultimately caused breakdown in
health. He was later compelled to give
UP his practice. He then engaged in
the drug business. and later cultivated
small fruit quite extensively on his Je-
rome street property. He was appoint-
ed by Ex-Governor kirkwood. surgeon
at Camp McClelland. and aided in the
recruiting service during the war. He
was married TO Miss Catherine A. Bris-
toll. July 8, 1852 in Ohio. So far as
is known there are no near relatives
living, other than the ones living in
California. The cause of his death is
not known, but it is presumed that it
was due to the effects of old age, for
at the time he left here he was quite
feeble.

not been fortunate in punching their

than scratches. They took one In the
