has cut out the race track and is real
~ trying to get his pudgy frame into
good condition to Withstand the pile

trainer has yet to show a loser, and

derings down the primrose path have
not knocked the vitality out of his
body he win be as fit as a fiddle when

Herrera is hustling daily at the pa
Wilton, doing a great deal of boxing.
The fight has excited great interest.

betting and no price has been estab-
ished.

Found Dead.

Monday morning nigh unto 8 O'Clock
William Cornelius, familiarly known as
"Pomp," was discovered dead as he
lay on the hay up stairs in Albert
Stephens livery barn.
The Wednesday previous "Pomp'' left
this city with horse and buggy for the
Richland county fair. He returned
Sunday night about II o'clock. After
putting away the horse with the aid of
Others in the barn, "Pomp' gathered
some robes and sought the hay on the
floor above, but did not complain.
About s o'clock the following morning
Mr.. Jas. Keyes, learning where "Pomp"
was, went up and seeing him in what
he thought sound sleep, did not dis
turb him. Shortly thereafter others went
up and upon investigation found that
life had taken flight.
Deceased was about 54 years of age,
somewhat small in stature because of
a deformity, and was resident of Min
eral Point from infancy. He possessed
an Unborn shrewdness and was noted
for his wit and happy spirit. For years
he had followed horse grooming and was
a careful hand, and many good runner
and trotter have been the better for
"Pomp's" watchfulness and proper
administrations.
1t is understood that for some time
his heart troubled him, and at the in
quest it was decided that he died from
heart disease. Funeral from the home
