J. Irving Dunning. Democratic
Registrar of Voters 01 the Third Dis-
snd well-known painter, met
with a sudden death at his home, 253

dtty evening. lie tripped on a worn
piece of carpet at the head of his
front stairs and plunged headlong
down the same, receiving injuries
lwhich resulted in instant death.

Mr. Dunning had been about the city

with friends during the afternoon and
evening, and between 9 and 10 o'clock
went to his home. in front of his
residence he met and talked for ,a
while with M. P, Dunne. Shortly after
entering the house a loud thumping
noise was heard by. Louis Canevert
and Charles H. Gehriuann. who were
in the neighborhood. and summoning
Mr, Dunne. the party entered the
house. fearing that some accident had
occurred. Directly inside the door
they found Mr. Dunning‘s body in a
heap on the floor. ‘Mr. Dunne sent out
a call for medical assistance, and soon
Drs. F. l. Burnett and D. E. Sullivan
responded. With the assistance of
Patrolman John Robe'l'ls and some
bystanders. the body was removed to
the upstairs apartments. and first aid
treatment was resorted to. but with
no avail

Dr. S. H. Huntington the medical
examiner. was soon at the scene of
the accident. and made an examina‘
tion of the case. it was apparent that
Mr. Dunning had slipped on a piece of
old lngrain carpet at the head of the
front stairs and, losing his hold on
the railing, plunged to his de'vih down
the stairs. The left side of his face
was badly bruised. his nose. left
cheek bone. and upper and lower jaw
were fractured. and his neck was dis
located. Death almost instantly fol-
lowed the fall. The flight of stairs
is quite long. and the noise from the
fad was heard through the bulldfng
and out in the street. The dislocation
of the neck was the immediate cause
of the death. and Dr. Huntington do.
clded that an accident was responsible
for the same.

Mr. Dunning was well-known in them
Third District and was quite popular.
H was active in Democratic circles,
being the Registrar of Voters of that
party. For many years he was en-
gaged in the painting business. being
a member of the firm of Doland d:
