CLOSt CALL TO DEATH.
H. w. Lemcke's Canoe Overtuns But
He Escapes Drowning.

Henry w. Lemcke, the genial assistant
city agent OF the Pacific Coast Company,
narrowly escaped being drowned in the
bav Sunday morning. He was out in his
Peterboro canoe, moving along serenely
under light sail, when gale suddenly
swept down and overturned the craft.
At tine moment the boat was struck Mr.
Lemcke was sitting on the gunwae in
counterbaIance to the force Of the wind
against the sail. As the cfaft turned tur-
tie, he held on to the side for dear life,
and it was only by unflinching tenacitv
and logged endurance and hard work that
he survived.
He had pair of long rubber boots,
which he could not get off, and when full
of water were of great burden, Notwlth-
standing this he managed to swim behind
the craft and force it ashore. He was
nearly exhausted but soon recovered from
the experience, and was out in the canoe
again before the day ended.

SHE MADE A MISTAKE.
But Got Her Moneys Worth, and
Tint Was What She Wanted.


Aunt Lucy lives on The North Side,
says the Chicago Times Herald and
has been a. widow for nearly 20 years,
not exactly because she likes the state
of widowhood better than any other,
hut for reasons that need not be dwelt
upon at this time. There are two forms
of amusement that Aunt Lucy is espe-
RALLY fond of-going to card parties
and funerals. She belongs to three aft
ernoon whist clubs. and now that the
people she has known ever since she
and Uncle Thurlow came here 43 years
ngo are getting along In years there is
an average of about one funeral week
that she can attend upon the ground
that she at least knew the corpse by
sight, even If they never had speak
ing acquaintance"
A week ago last Thursday, when
Aunt Lucy picked up her paper and
glanced over the death notices, she ex-
claimed In voice that was choked
with emotion:
"My goodness. Here's Henry John
son dead. My, my, my. | wonder
who'll be the next to go? | used to
know his cousin Fannie Garwood so
WE'LL | suppose it will be no more than
the proper thing for me to go to the
funeral. And they live away over on
get there and back. Still, there Is a
duty we owe to our friends that must
not be passed over lightly"
SO on the following day Aunt Lucy
put on her most somber clothes and
started early. The funeral sermon was
fine, and Aunt Lucy sat behind a cor
ner of the piano upon a register that
was almost red hot and perspired and
wept and got stitch in her side. The
singing was lovely the corpse looked
as natural as life, and after it was all
over Aunt Lucy started home, de-
claring to herself that 1t was one Of the
most enjoyable funerals she had ever
attended. Her railroad fare amounted
to nearly half dollar and she spent
20 cents for lunch before starting on
the trip home, but she didn't regret 1t
in the least. She had received the
worth of her money and more too.
AS luck would have it, Aunt Lucy
met Mr.. Johnson's cousin Fannie on
Sunday morning at church. Mrs. Gar
wood had come back on a visit from
Cincinnati, where she has lived during
the past seven years, and naturally
took the first opportunity to hear her
dear old pastor preach again.
ITS queer ! didn't see you at the
funeral" Aunt Lucy said, after the
first gush of their greeting.
What funeral"
"Why, your cousin Henry Johnson's
Thursday afternoon"
