MAN WHO HANGED HAYMARkEr

ALWAYS HAUNTED BY SCENE
AND THREATENED WITH pEATL
Anarchists Continued to Write Threat
enins Letters-sheriff and Chief
Clerk Also Came to Iowa to Got
Away from Enemies and Both Died
From Same Disease.

Mason City, June I'D. w. Nick
erson. the man who hanged the Hay
market rioters in Chicago, was found
dead in his bed at his home in Floyd
One OF the strange condolences in
connection with this death caused from
apoplexy, is the fact that both Sheriff
S. F. Hanchett, who was at that time
sheriff Of Cook county, and w. H.
Gleason, who was the chief clerk, both
came to this county and both died
very suddenly from the same cause,
and within three days of each other.
This was about three years ago.
Mr.. Nickerson never spent a day
without thinking of this affair. He left
Chicago In 1902 and came to the prair-
les of the west, where he thought he
could bury his hauntings But he was
in constant receipt Of letters from an
archists threatening his life and he
was literally bounded to his death.
At the time OF the Haymarket riots
in that city he was acting as deputy
sheriff, and In performing his duty in
that capacity was executioner for those
who paid the penalty, for the uprising,
on the scaffold. Since that time he has
been q marked man.
Mr.. Nfckerson was genial, affable
man, and made friends of the entire
community. BY many he was regarded
as an artistocrat because of his refined
ways, which thru many years of resi-
dence in the city had become a part
of him.
AS an incident serving to Illustrate
the extent to which he carried his
habits 1t is said that he required of
his farm help that they exchange their
boots for slippers and put on their
coats before taking a seat at the din
ner table.
Few of Mr.. Nlckersons neighbors
knew of the incidents connected with
his former life.

yesterday morning by pulley which
fell from a pole of the Marengo Tele-

injuries will be serious.
Mayor Henderson was standing in
front Of his office talking to friend
about IL o'clock. A gang of linemen
were stringing a new cable for the tele-
phone company and some of them were
at work almost directly above where
the mayor was standing. The pulley
became displaced in some way and fell
directly on top of the mayors head.
He was picked up unconscious and
cred in a few minutes but was dazed
by the accident for some time. A deep
and ugly cash was cut in his head.
1t may be possible that the accident
will result in the postponement Of
the mayors hearing, which was sched-
