James Higley Dies While En Route to Omaha Old Time Resident of This City Passed Away Suddenly wnne -t-nrouie to Omaha in an Auto. From Saturday's Dally James B. Higley, old time resident of this city and councilman from the fifth ward, died very suddenly yes terday afternoon while enroute from this city to Omaha, death coming in an instant, and while the aged man was guiding his car along Edwards street at the outskirts of South Omaha.

Elledge at the University hospital leaving this city a few moments after 4 o'clock at the time Mr. Higley had been ap parently in his usual health and there was no intimation of the fatal attack that was a few moments later to claim his life. Mr. Higley had started to turn east from the highway along Edwards street to drive on the Thirteenth street boulevard on into Omaha and the car was nearing Thirteenth street when Mrs. Barr, who was rid ing in the front seat of the car with Mr. Higley heard him utter a slight groan and in an instant he had col lapsed over the steering wheel of the car. Mrs. Barr shut off the car and with Mrs. Higley attempted to give the unfortunate man aid but he was apparently beyond assistance. Help was summoned and in a few moments a large crowd assembled around the car and medical aid was summoned. Death occurred shortly before 5 o'clock. Dr. J. J. O'Hearn was called to the scene and pronounced the unfortu nate man dead, the cause of death be ing fixed as general debility and an attack of heart disease.
