He had retired for the night and had aroused from his. sléep to cail to his wife: i “I love you, honey.” Mrs. Arthur turned on the light and found him dead. Apparently his heart had failed. Although Arthur had complained of feeling tired lately, he had not | been ill and his death was a shock to his many friends here. He was born May 13, 1897, in Wau- sau, Wisconsin. He served overseas with the Canadian army. When the United States declared war he transferred to the 32nd Division as First Sergeant and Chief Dispatcher.

Billings was convicted with Tom Mooney of bombing the 1916 San | Francisco Preparedness parade. Gov.

He predicted favorable action would be forthcoming speed- ily, Gov. Olson said: “It will at last wipe out a blot on the name of Cali- fornia.” Court automatically stays his exe- cution.
