APOPLEXY CAUSES DEATH OF MRS. BELLE WAGGENER
     Mrs. Belle L. Waggener, 63 years old died suddenly at her home, 113 South Eleventh street, yesterday morning following a stroke of apoplexy. Arrangements for the funeral have not been made, pending word from relatives in Florida.
     Mrs. Waggener was the widow of the late T.L. Waggener, for many years city engineer of Colorado Springs. Wednesday night she was apparently in her usual health and attended a motion picture theater with several friends. Her father, Dr. Richard Waggener, and a brother live at Jacksonville, Fla., and a sister, Mrs. Ada Dana, lives in Newark, N.J. The family name on both sides of the house was the same, but there was no blood relationship. Both Mr. and Mrs. Waggener had a wide circle of friends in Colorado Springs, and had lived here for the last quarter of a century.

Webb, Robert
DIES AS HE IS BEING RUSHED TO THIS CITY
Robert Webb Loses in Race Against Death-Was Injured While Riding Horse.
  Death won in a race against a team of Colorado bronchos yesterday, and Robert Webb, 14 years old, died as the ponies, hitched to a light wagon, raced down the mountain trail from Clyde, 20 miles back in the hills from Colorado Springs.
  The boy, injured by a plunging cowpony three days ago, was being hurried to the city so that he could be given better medical attention than his parents were able to secure for him at their ranch a few miles from the mountain town. And so, when Alfred Webb saw that his son had been unable to stand the trip, the panting team was pulled down and the remainder of the journey was made at a slower pace, for death was also one of the passengers. The funeral will be held this afternoon from the undertaking rooms of Fairleys and Law.
  Young Webb received his fatal injurys when he was riding about his father's ranch. The horse became unmanageable and the lad was thrown against the saddle-horn, the metal piece striking him in the side. Death, the physicians say, was caused by peritonitis.
