AGED SOLDIER MEETS
DEATH IN THE WAVES
Veteran Supposed to Have Died
from Heart Failure in
the Water

SANTA MONICA, Sept. 26.-Tossed
about by the waves, the body of
Thomas B. Rosencrans, an old soldier,
was found floating in the ocean near
the end of the municipal pier this af-
ternoon. The body was yet warm
when found, this fact supporting the
theory of the police that Rosencrans
fell into the water and died at once
from heart failure. A post mortem ex-
animation will be made tomorrow
mornin gat the morgue of Bresee Bros.
& Todd on Third street.
Rosencrans, who was 81 years of
age, was member of the Soldiers
home at Sawtelle. He came here in
1904, registering from Cedar Rapids.
Ia, where he said he had a wife. He
was a member Of company c, second
Iowa infantry, in the Civil War.
No one could be found at the pier
who saw Rosencrans fall into the
water. Fishermen saw him descend
the steps leading to the boat landing,
where he sat down for a time. The
next seen of him was when a fisher
man discovered the body floating face
downward near his fishing line. The
hat of the old man was found on the
steps. 1t is the opinion of the police
that If Rosencrans had Intentionally
entered the water to commit suicide
his lungs would have been full of wa
ter, but this was not found to be the

WOMAN DIES, MAN HURT
WHEN TRAIN HITS RIG
Mr.. and Mrs. Cicero Watts Are
Victims of Accident at
Long Beach

LONG BEACH, Sept. ga woman
was killed and her husband injured
when a southbound Southern Pacific
train, due in Long Beach at APO
O'clock struck their light wagon at the
corner of Second street and Daisy ave-
nue., a point at which the railroad
track turns into West Second street
The victims of the accident were Mr.
and Mrs. cicero Watts, aged Sc and 4S
years, respectively, who live at Lomita,
a small settlement. five miles southeast
of Redondo Beach, and who had
driven here this morning with a load
of potatoes.
They were hurrying homeward after
spending the day here fishing. Failing
to hear an alarm bell which rang at
the corner heralding the approach of
the train, Watts drove upon the track.
AS he did so his wife cried, "Oh!
There's a train" Watts turned the
horses sharply to the right and off the
track. This brought the side of the
wagon on which his wife sat nearest
the train. The pilot of the engine
struck the left front wheel of the
wagon, breaking it down, and Mrs.
Watts fell across the track, her head
directly in front of the engines wheels
Her husband was thrown against her,
heard her last scream, "Oh, Daddy!"
and witnessed her instant death.
The woman's head was horribly
crushed under the wheels. Her hus-
bands left hip was severely injured,
being either dislocated or broken, and
he suffered numerous painful bruises
The horse they were driving was not
injured.
TELLS OF TRAGEDY
Watts brokenly told of the tragedy
as he lay on a table in the offices of
Drs. Wood and Waterman. After re-
ceiving their attention he was trans
ferred to an apartment in the Norwood
rooming house in the same building.
He will be confined to his bed for
some time.
Mrs. Watts was the daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Copple of Pittsburg, Kas.,
where her home was. Several other
relatives survive her there. They had
no children, but he had a son, Otto
Watts, by q former marriage, who is
a. clerk at the Lankershim hotel Los
Angeles, and another son and daugh-
ter in San Francisco.
Mr.. and Mrs. Watts were to have
been guests at a dinner party at the
home of friends in Lomita tonight.
When he first saw the train, Watts
says, It was about forty feet away.
1t was brought to stop about fifty
feet from the scene of the accident,
indicating 1t was not travelling at a
high speed. Mrs. F. S. Brennan of
West Second street and Miss Sansouci
witnessed the accident. They and
men in stores nearby said they heard
the ringing of the signal bell and that
the train was coming at a slow speed
around the bend.
Mrs. Watts body was taken to the
undertaking rooms of E. H. Cleveland,
121 American avenue.

Bought on Credit

RIVERSIDE, Sept. 26--A man giving
his name as j. b. Elliott is under ar
rest charged with buying goods on
credit and endeayoring to sell them at
a discount for cash.
Elliott called Saturday at the store
of the Art Wall Paper company and
ordered a bill of painters, supplies
amounting to $6.95. He explained that
he had a job awaiting him and had no
money with which to pay the bill at
the time. Later it was learned that
Elliott had tried to dispose of the goods
at Arlington for $3.50.
The police caused Elilott's arrest and
found on his person two bills of goods
he had secured from San Bernardino
houses. A telephone message disclosed
the fact that the goods had been or
dered in a manner similar to those Sc
cured here. With two exceptions all
the goods were found in Elliotts pos
session. The bills had been receipted,
but not in the stores from which they
were issued. Elliott tore a couple of
the bills into bits before it was dis
covered that he had been operating in

DR.. SCHERER ADDRESSES
NEW CLASSES AT THR00P

PASADENA, Sept. 27.-Work for the
school year at Greater Throop in
stitute is wen under way. The first
separate assembly of the institution in
the new building was held yesterday.
In addressing the students DR.. James
A. B. Scherer spoke In part as roL-
lows:
mo man can measure the importance
of this hour. I believe that it marks
not only a new epoch in the develop
ment of Throop institute, but for
ward step in the movement of Ameri-
can education. We have followed the
Throop precedent by opening the first
formal assembly with simple and sin
cere religious exercises. Ever since its
foundation in 1891 the school has been
professedly Christian, but non-sectar-
IAN This 1t will continue to be.
"The founder of Christian religion
was by trade q carpenter, and In my
belief every man ought to now, as In
Christ's age, learn a trade as a part
of his education, being taught not only
to think, but to do. The school VIII
fall far short Of its opportunity, how
ever, if 1t teaches merely a higher sort
of manual training. 1t must actually
contribute to the sum of human
knowledge by developing the spirit Of
research, by begetting the power of
trained initiative that will not merely
go on doing things that are Wortn
while in engineering, but produce
things that are better worth while with
better methods of doing them.
''Play also has its place in the days
work Recreation re-creates, or creates
anew the powers, for a fresh per-
formance of their tasks. Like many
other good things, play is only had
when it ceases to be a means and be-
comes an end in itself. Manly play will
be encouraged at Throop, but not
horse play Hazing is horse play
outgrown by students who have
evolved from colts or wild asses into
young manhood"

WAS HELD UP AT VENICE

VENICE, Sept. 26-I. I. Wilson of

that he was held up and robbed late
last night at Westminster avenue and
Trelleyway. He said two men stopped
him and demanded his valuables and
when he refused to comply they beat
him severely and relieved him Of his
watch and $40 in cash. He exhibited
a badly bruised head in recounting his
