Kugel Says That Pedestrians Ought to Use More Care In connection with several fatal au- tomobile accidents in Omaha this week Superintendent Kugel of the po- From Street Car. DRIVEN BY C. H. STOCKDALE The second killing within twenty- four hours due to speeding automo- biles on Farnam street near Twenty- sixth occurred yesterday afternoon when Mrs, Christina Cunningham, aged 50, wife of Coloner L. G. Cun- ningham, prominent Omaha business man, met death under the wheels of an auto driven by C. H. Stockdale of the Lininger Implement company. Mrs. Cunningham was killed while waiting for her husband, who had telephoned her a few moments be- fore that he was coming on the next Farnam street car. She was a bride of three months, a peculiar coinci- dence heing that at 3 o'clock on May 17, she married Colon¢l Cunningham, and three months later, to the very hour, death parted them. Sstockdale was demonstrating a car to a prospective purchaser. He as- serts he was moving slowly and that she saw him and heard his horn. When he was near the place where she stood, however, she stepped into the street and in front of the ma- chine, which could not be stopped in time to save her, said Stockdale. She was knocked down, her skull crushed and both legs broken. The occupants of the car picked her up and rushed her to the Leonardo da Vinci hospital, where death relieved her sufferings a few hours later, Stockdale wa. arrested, but was later released on a $5,000 bond upon the order of County Attorney Mag- ney. Mrs. Cunningham was formerly Mrs. Christina Gunn,_ sister of John S. Paul, prominent banker of Flor- ence, who is now in Washington. When Mr. Cunningham’s son was injured in a foot ball game several years ago and was edridden for three year., Mrs. Gunn nursed him faithfully until the end and acted as housekeeper at the Cunningham home at 419 Sweetwood avenue. Last May they were married. Colonel Cunningham is 70 years old and is prominent in Economic league activ- ities. He is western manager for a St. Louis paper and printing firm, and is also interested in real estate. The Lody wa. taken to the Brailey & Dorrance pariors and the funeral will be held probably Sunday. “We were going out together to look at a piece of property for a new home,” Mr. Cunningham told a Bee reporter. “I had just telephoned to her that I was on my way home, and she said she would meet me at the street car. I missed her and thought she had changed her mind and went out alone, so I went out there and then returncd and was told that she had been kil'ed.” Guire is on his w Licutenant Mc- to the Mnrel Bee Want Ads produce results. day afternoon, e = Store Opens 8:30 A.
