consul of the
Salvation Army of America, was
killed in a frightful railway acci

the small town of Dean Lake, on
the Santa Fe road.
Details of the
tragedy did not reach this city until
this morning, when sorrow was ex
pressed on every hand.
Mrs. Booth-Tucker’s body was
fearfully mangled but she lived an
hour after being taken from the de
bris of the wreck.
