FOREMAN KUHnS BEARS
ALL BURDEN OF GUILT
Assistant VirnStein Not Blamed for
Accident at Recent Fire.

Commissioner Macfarland yesterday
afternoon approved recommendation Of
Chief Engineer Belt, of the Fire De-
partment. generating Assistant Fore
man John H. Virnstein, of Engine Com
pany No. 8, from any blame in connec-
tion with the delay of his company In
getting into service at fire box No 81,
on July 81, The Commissioner also
approves a recommendation TO the ef-
feet that Foreman Charles Kuhns, Of
the same company. was alone guilty of
neglect of duty, and is the only one
upon whom punishment should be in
flicted
The case originally went before a trial
board, composed of Assistant Chief En-
gineer A. j. Sullivan. Foreman j. T.
Young. and c. w. Hopkins. The verdict
held Kuhns and Virnsteih equally guilty
of negligence, and recommended that
each be deprived of days off, for thirty
days, Jointly bear the expense of re-
pairing a fire hydrant injured by their
negligence. and be reprimanded by the
Department. Chief Belt thought this
punishment too severe, but Commission
er Macfarland declared the offense Sc
rious, and approved the verdict of the
trial board.
Subsequent investigation showed that
the assistant foreman was acting in an
inferior capacity. and was merely carry
ing out the orders of Foreman Kuhns.
Chief Belt, therefore, suggested that the
foreman pay all the expense of repair
ing the hydrant, and that no punishment
be inflicted upon the assistant foreman.

Barrett.

One of the most lamentable deaths
occurring last week was that OF Prof.
Stephen p. Barrett, father of Mrs. Nv.
Robertson. He had been ailing for
some time prior to his demise, but until
last Tuesday it was not thought that his
condition was alarming.

SO years, being born in Kingsville, Ohio,

was that of teacher and in this voca-
ton he spent forty-two years of his life.
He was also member and preacher of
the gospel OF the Baptist church with
which he allied himself when only fiji
teen years of age. He was a man of
strong conviction who had the courage
of those convictions of a kindly DISPOSE
ton; very sympathetic, social and gen.
erous in all his relations. He guarded
his rights with gentle modesty though
manly dignity.
As husband he was most devoted !;
as father, very affectionate and almost
idolized his family.
Those OF his children who survive
him are H. p. Barrett, Council Bluffs,
Iowa; J. A. Barrett, Lincoln, 'Neb. ;
Mrs. w. b. Guthrie, Salt Lake City
Mrs. David Seegrist and Mrs. w. w.
Robertson, both of this city, Mr.. Barrett
having lived with the last named for
some time. He was also survived by a
loving and devoted wife who has the
deep sympathy of the entire COM
munity.
Funeral services were held from the
residence of w. w. Robertson on FRI
day morning at 100 o'clock, Rev. J. j.
Tickner and F. l.. Hayden officiating.
The interment took place in Tahoma

Douglass.

Joshua =. Douglass of Zillah passed
away Friday morning, February 20,
1903, at , o'clock, aged Il years, 6
months and 10 days. He was seriously
i'll for almost four months with cancer
GUS tumor of the stomach. His wife
preceded him to the world beyond just
seven months.
The deceased was born August l, 1881,
in Oswego county, New York, of Sanford
and Mary Douglass, nee Parkhurst. He
was the youngest of six brothers. He
also had seven sisters. Only one sister,
Susan A. Whitney of Kendall n. Y,
survives.
He was educated for the ministry by
an Evangelical church, but after preach
ing few sermons accepted the doctrine
of Universalism. For the last IS years
he has been a Spiritualist.
He was married in New York to Miss
Mary A. Decker, to whom were born
five children: Mrs. Cora V. Phelps and

and mother died in New York in 1867.
\ few years afterward Mr.. Douglass

Joshua is in Chicago; the others reside
in this county.
In 1876 Mr.. Douglass moved with his
family from New York to Red Cloud,
Neb. Eleven years ago, after pro-
longed and extended tour of investiga-
ton, he settled in the sagebrush four
miles east of Zillah. where he estab-
lished model home. Through the
first years of development he underwent
the hardships incident to pioneer life.
As to his character, he was first a
courageous man. Once convinced, he
pursued his course without turning to
the right or left. He was enterprising
and public spirited. He was studious
and observant. Results were always
unsatisfactory to him unless he under

Without disparagement of any other
fraternity, the Fraternal Brotherh God
claims to have the most practical and
comprehensive plan of insurance ever
offered to the people.
In addition to the usual death bene-
fits, it pays general accident benefit
This is not restricted to loss of limb or
broken bone, as it is in other fraterni-
ties, but covers any and all disabilities
arising from accident.
1t pays the whole amount of certifi-
cate to any member who is totally and
permanently disabled from any cause,
or to any member who reaches the age
of 20 years, in ten equal annual INSTALL
ments. In either case the expenses of
the member cease when title to benefit
is established.
Other fraternities pay only portion of
the certificate and require continuous
payment of expenses until death.
This order recognizes the equal right
of women to share its benefits and add
mits them on exactly the same footing
as men.
The rates of assessment are not ex-
cessive, but high enough to guarantee
safety. No double assessments and no
vexatious discussions as to reimbursement
are likely to occur in the Fraterna J
Brotherhood. 1t started on right
basis and already has healthy reserve
fund.
The order now has 1000 members,
and is fast coming to the front as the
leading fraternity OF its class on the
Pacific coast.
