BROKEN HEART
CAUSES DEATH
ALFRED LARSON WELL KNOWN TELEPHONE
MANAGER FOR THE IOWA COMPANY

Strain Of Lifting Heavy Telephone Pole Breaks
Valve Of Heart. Funeral Services to
be Held Here.

This morning came the sad news of
the death of Alfred Larson until re-
Gently the popular manager of the
Iowa Telephone exchange IN Denison.
He also had wide territory of line
under his jurisdiction and he was we'll
known throughout Harrison. Shelby,
Carroll and Crawford counties. Death
was not unexpected as he had been
failing for some time and physicians
considered his case az hopeless. A
number of weeks ago he resigned
from the employment Of the company
and recently he went to Phillipsburg.
Kansas. in the hope that a change
ard rest might do him good. He got
no better however. and last week his
faithful wife and her little children
went to Kansas to join him.
The cause of his death was heart
disease complicated with dropsy and
the weakness of his heart is said to
date from strain which he received
while lifting heavy telephone pole.
The strain was too much for the
valves of the heart and he never re-
gained his strength In fact from
the day of the accident he was a
doomed man. Until but recently
however. he was about our streets try
ing to be cheerful and taking his
usual interest IN his friends and in
his work.
Alfred was a kindly. honorable,
straightforward young man. He was
faithful to the interests of his com.
pany and gave to his work the best
that was in him. He took pleasure
in outdoor sports and last year was
one of the ring leaders Of our base
ball enthusiasm and this year he was
eleted manager of the team. He wal

fitting now that one of the order has

EXTRA SESSION
OF LEGISLATURE
CALLED BY GOV. CUMMINS TO AMEND
PRIMARY Law.
WILL CONVENE NEXT MONDAY.
Proposed That Republicans Shall Cast Primary
Vote for Senator at the November
Election.

The peace fight held at Des Moines
yesterday amounted to very little.
Gov. Cummins transacting the busi-
ness of the body by announcing call
for an extra session of the legislature
to convene on Monday. Aug. 3lst.
for the purpose of considering an
amendment to the primary election
law which shall provide for an ex-
preston of choice between candidates
for the senate of the United States at
the general election. in the event that
the choice of any political party for
senator in June primary becomes un-
availing by reason of death or other
wise.
The extra session will be expen-
sive but we agree with the Governor
that it will be worth the money te
the republicans of the state. The
amendment will probably be fought
by the democrats in the legislature as
it will doubtless result in more har
monious action and a larger vote OF
the part of the republicans.
Gov. Cummins, Congressman Hau
gen. Congressman Smith and ex-Con
gresham Lacey are spoken of as can
didates, while it is altogether prob
able that Secretary James Wilson
will be a candidate before the cam
paign has progressed to any great ex
tent.

early left to shift for himself and for
several years he found home with
Mrs. Lottie D. Ley and attended the
Denison schools. He started to work
for the Iowa Telephone Co. in 1900
and shortly after was made manager
of the Denison exchange.
On April 6, 1903 he was married to
Miss May Winters and, to them two
children were born., Charles, aged
three and Una. aged one year. He
took the greatest pride in his home
and wife and little ones and his
married life was ideal. He leaves a
brother and sister. His parents are
buried IN the Denison cemetery and
it is thought that his remains will be
brought here, but as yet nothing has
been heard as to any funeral arrange
ments. He died on yesterday after
noon. August 25th. at the home OF
Mrs. Larson's mother, Mrs. l. M.
Weaver. near Phillipsburg. Kansas.
The heart of the community is wrunR
with sorrow for this bright man who
made his way so faithfully in the
midst of many trials and sorrows
which would have defeated weaker
spirit. To the wife and to the little
ones the sympathy of all our people is
extended.

HOTEL WILL
OPEN PROMPTLY.
PURCHASES MADE FOR FURNISHING DEM.
SONS HANDSOME HOSTLFRY
ALL PREPARATIONS BEING MADE
Everything viii be Of the Finest and Denison's S
Hoiel will be as Good as the State
Affords

The Dunns have taken hold of the
hotel project in earnest. Everything
is being pushed just as speedily as
possible and it is confidently hoped
that September 18th. will see the
new hotel open to the public. The
Dunns have high ideals as to what a
hotel should be and they will give US
as good an hotel as can be found in
all Iowa. During the past week the
new manager. together with q CON-
mittee consisting of Geo. Naeve and
j. E. Bale, went TO Chicago and
there made their purchases direct
from the wholesale houses. Mr..
Naeve is greatly plesed with the re-
suit of the trip. He tells US that not
only were they able to secure the very
best of everything but they were en-
abled to buy very cheaply as no mid
dleman's profit was paid to anyone
and the large quantity they purchas-
ed secured the lowest of prices.
1t was the excellent good fortune
of the hotel to be able to engage q
fine German chef. who has been in
way up hotels in the east. so the de-
partment under his charge will open
we'll. We might add that the hotel
has fifty guest chambers. is heated
by steam, hot and cold water in each
room. is wired for a telephone il
every room, and baths are fount
every where convenient. The mar

CATHOLIC PICNIC A SUCCESS
Net Receipts Over -Four Hundred Dollars
Country Boys Defeat Townies at Base Ball

The picnic given yesterday by St.
Rose of Lima parish was a great sue
cess in every way. The gross receipts
were $3.50 and. the proceeds were over
S4O0 Splendid meals were served at
noon. in the evening and after the
dance at the opera house. The crowd
was large and devoted itself to having
the best possible time.
The Base Ball Game
The most exciting event of the day
was the ball game. Both mines play
ed more like veterans than ameteurs
and at the beginning of the ninth
inning the score was one to nothing
in favor of the city dudes. But the
ninth inning proved fatal to the linen
collars. In the first half through
strong batting and series of errors
the country boys raked in three runs
and in the last half the townies were
able to bring in one score so the game
ended three to two in favor of the
country boys. Muir umpired the
game. Hoffman and Hink was the
battery for the town boys and Purcell
O'Connor and Purcell held the points
tor the country nine. Jerry O'Connor
was the star of the game.
The dance in the evening was we'll
attended and Rev. Father Farrelly
and the ladies of the church are to be
congratulated upon the successful day.
