Captain Byxbeo was taken ill at
10 o'clock on Tuesday evening with
an attack of acute indigestion. Dr.
Charles G. Bohaunan was in attend-
ance, and succeeded in relieving him
of rnnclr puin. Yesterday morning he
complained of sharp pains in his
back. 5Belng an active ruan he was
of the opinion that exercise was what
he needed and to that end he arose
from bed and dressed. ‘He spent
some time in walking about his home

hurry call was again sent for medical
assistance. At this time Dr's. James
Gregory. and Ward Gregory were
called in consultation with 'Dr.

relieving him again and he became
quieted. During‘the night he corr-
versed with his son and repeatedly

this season. There were over one hun-

York, as well as the many other pleas-
ures afforded. Ice cream cones and
dancing were features not to be over-
looked.
Mr. Reason opened the day with a
few clever and interesting tricks of
slight-of-hand and they were well re-
ceived by the children and the older
folks. who gathered around in the
dance hall and watched eagerly. The
children were very much amused with
Mr. Itanson's performance. His pro-
gram included a Punch and Judy show,
which is always acceptable to children,
and this caused many ontgursts of
laughter.

performances the children were serv-
