MRS. WAUCHOPE DEAD

Former Marshalltown Girl Died in St. Paul

Word of the death in St. Paul Tuesday of Mrs. J.A. Wauchope was received in a telegram from Mr. Wauchope to his brother-in-law, Cady J. Moffatt, which came Tuesday afternoon. Altho the cause of death was not stated in the message, the presumption is that the end was due to some complication resulting from organic heart disease, with which Mrs. Wauchope had been suffering for several years.

Mrs. Wauchope was formerly Miss Winifred Tiffany of this city, and has many friends here. She was born in Union Oct. 29, 1879, the second daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A.S. Tiffany. The daughter Winifred received her education here, was graduated from the high school with the class of 1898, and on Jan. 1, 1900, became the wife of Mr. Wauchope, who was at the head of the science department of the high school here. Most of the married life of Mr. and Mrs. Wauchope has been passed in St. Paul, where Mr. Wauchope is principal of the Humboldt high school. The Wauchope home is at 135 Western avenue.

In addition to her husband and one daughter, Mrs. F.J. Boxmeyer, of St. Paul, Mrs. Wauchope is survived by her father who lives in Madison, Wis.; two sisters, Mrs. Moffatt and Mrs. C.W. Ostdiek, the latter of Hibbing, Minn.; and one brother, Arthur Tiffany, of San Francisco.

Funeral services will be held from the Wauchope home Friday afternoon, and burial will be in St. Paul.

Mr. and Mrs. Moffatt left early this morning for St. Paul to be present at the funeral.
