The day before Christmas found the
EVENING STAR office filed with ex-

given a box of candy. Many also re-
ceived tickets.
Altogether the EVENING STARS

pose admirably. 1t found its way into
dreary homes and made them bright.
Christmas night found three thousand
little souls sleeping with smiles on their

new possession.
And for all this we thank you wht

DOCTORS FEAR
END IS NEAR FOR
H. NIX TWOMBLY
Railroad Magnate, Who Never
Recovered from Shock OF
Sons Death, Sinking.

MADISON, Dec. 27.-Hamilton Nc
Kay Twombly, lawyer and railroad
finaneier. passed a comfortable Night
and today was said to be resting easy,
but it is believed that he is gradually
sinking and that death is not far or.
His illness has become SO grave that
three specialists were yesterday sum
moned from New York. Immediately
after. members of the Vanderbilt fam
ily. to whom Mr.. Twombly is related
trough his marriage to Miss Florence
Adele Vanderbilt, youngest daughter OF
the late William H. Vanderbilt, have
been notified of his critical condition.
Five years ago Mr.. Twombly lost his
favorite daughter. Only two years aft
er that, Hamilton Mckay Twombly, jr.,
the son to whom the father was devoted,
was rowne while swimming in Big
Asuuam Lake, neal Holderness, n. H
The boy was just Is years old. In a
state of grief that verged upon utter
surrender to despair. Mr.. Twombly and
his wife went to the scene of their n
death and brought back the body TO
New York. Some of his friends have
believed that Mr.. Twonbly, who is now
IS years old, has never been the same
since that day.
In last February the home was again
in mourning for the death of William
A. M. Burden. Mr.. Twombly's son-in-
law. Mr., Twombly at that time suf-
ered an attack of prostration
which caused his family grave alarm.
MIR. Twombly's married life has been
peculiarly happy. He has been as for
tanate in this respect as the other
noted men who won the hands of the
ether daughters of William H. Van
de1bilt. These were w. Seward Webb
and Elliott f. Shepard.
Mrs. Twombly is constantly at her
husbands bedside. He suffers acute
pain from kidney trouble, which has re
suited in a form of paralysis. 1t is
said that grief over the death Of HIS
son prevented his r%egaining his health
after al breakdown las February.
