THE DEATH OF
| ANGUS MCDONALD
DIED In THIS CITY SAT-
URDAY AFTERNOON.
Funeral Was Perhaps the
Largest Ever Held In
This Place.

Y Angus Mcdonald, who for two weeks
hovered between life and death at the
home of his sister, Mrs. III. o. Worth
ington, in this city, died at 4:20 o'clock
Saturday afternoon.
Mr.. Mcdonald had been failing in
health since last October, Some weeks
ago his physician advised that he go to
Glenwood Springs, Colorado, in hope
that his affliction, Bright's disease,
might be cured. Shortly after arrival
there symptoms of bad cold appeared,
and the sick man started for home,
where he arrived in the grasp of pneu-
monia, which, in connection with the
other complications, soon wore out the
already shattered strength of what but a
few years ago was perhaps the strongest
man, physically, in Umatilla county.
Angus Mcdonald died as he had
lived-a brave, God fearing man, with
out an enemy, a friend to all, all counted
by him as friends. The last hours of
his illness were made happy by flights of
memory to childhood's days, and the
trusting of the care of his soul to his
Maker. To Rev. Armfield, who was
with him at the end, and to his relatives
he gave ample evidence that with him
all was we'll.
For years the writer and Angus Nc
Donald had been intimate friends, and
during all those years not once have we
known him to transgress the written and
unwritten law that forever stands be-
tween friends, that bond of friendship
do unto others as you would have them
do unto you. This was his life as lived.
What more need be said, or, rather,
what more can be said?
The funeral, which took place Mon
day at II a. M, was perhaps the largest
ever seen in this part of the county.
Because of the unfinished condition of
the M. e. church, services were con-
Quoted by Rev. w. Z. Armfeld in the
Christian church, that big editice, in
cluding the auditorium, gallery and class
room, being completely taxed to its ut
most capacity. Rev. Armfield, from
scriptural passages impressed all with
deaths great lesson, and in sympathetic
words paid high tribute of praise to
the departed friend and brother.
Stevens Lodge X. of p, of Weston,
OF which Mr.. Mcdonald was member,
and Pythian Lodge X. of p, of Athena,
attended in body, and together with
members from Helix, Pendleton and
Milton, and Woodmen of the World,
escorted the remains to their last resting
place in Kees' cemetery
Born in the Province OF Ontario,
Canada, August 10, 1859, Angus Nc
Donald came to Oregon in 1881, and has
resided in Umatilla county continuously
since that time. He leaves to mourn
the loss of kind and considerate
brother, two sisters, Mrs. Fl. o. Worth
ington, of this city, and Mrs. Spaulding,
of Hood River; three brothers, George,
of Pullman, Wash, Harvey and Alex, of
Walla Walla.

THREATENED TO KILL HER.
Mrs. Grace Hudspeth Is Granted
Divorce From Her Husband.

"Did your husband ever threaten to
kill your" asked Attorney Will M.
Peterson OF the plaintiff.
"Yes, sir,' was the answer. Zone
night he got mad at me and threatened
to kill me. He got up out of bed, took
his knife out Of his pants pocket and
began whettiDg it upon the milestone.
! rushed out of the house and called in
the neighborS and they quieted him
down"
This, says the Tribune, was but a
part OF the testimony before Judge Ellis
in the case Of Grace Hudspeth vs..
Robert Hudspeth. The plaintiff alleged
cruel and inhuman treatment and nom
support. The court, after hearing the
evidence, granted the plaintiff decree
Of divorce and the custody OF the three
minor children as long as she remained
unmarried. This was the stipulation Of
the husband, who did not appear. Will
M. Peterson was attorney for plaintiff.

FATHER FINDS HIS
TWO KIDNAPPED GIRLS
Dressed as Boys, Throwing Anxious
Father OF the Trail.

| 4
Fred Marshal, teamster who was for
time employed in Athena, where he
hauled rock for the basement Of the
new Methodist Episcopal church
building, after searching three and a
half years and spending $4,000, his en-
tire savings, has recovered his two little
daughters who were kidnapped from his
home at Boise nearly four years ago.
He met them accidentally in a store at
Pendleton last Friday /snd the shock
was SO great that hereeled and stag
gered. The story IL one of rough treat
ment OF the children, and as the father
tells Of his search tears come to his
eyes.
Because of threats made by Dan Cliff
ford, the villain who stole them away,
breaking up the family and taking the
wife with him, the little ones seem
afraid to tell all they know. Bessie
said:
"As soon as they carried us from
home they put us in boys clothes; they
named me Dick and Ruth's name was
Tom. We did not like boys clothes,
but we were afraid of the man, who said
he would kill US. We we're in La
Grande, Meacham, Pendleton and
Echo, where mother died. The man
did not like me as well as he did Ruth,
and said when she grew up he would
take her away and make her work for
him.
Eat mothers death the man left Ruth
with people in Echo and took me to the
mountains above Weiser, where he kept
me in cabin. | had to cook for him.
He would get drunk and treat me rough.
He told me I never was to mention my
fathers name, and if L did, he said he
would kill me. He told me il father
ever saw me he would kill me.
"When / saw father in the store !
was afraid of him, but soon saw that
would not be hurt. Several months
ago | was in DR.. @. j. Smiths Office and
l saw Grandpa Marshall, but was
afraid to speak out, as the man had said
he would kill me, SO / hurried out Of
the Office before ! was noticed" !"
Rev. G. W. Rigby, of Pendleton,
preached the funeral service OF Mrs.
Marshall when she died at Echo year
ago last August. When he saw the
children he was taken with them, and
tried to get them to go to the home Of
his daughter, Mrs. T.. e. Cook, on the
reservation, near here.
Clifford then disappeared with the
girls and went to Weston. Finally Mr.
Rigby located the little ones at v eBton
and eventually got them to go to Mr
Cooks. It was not discovered that they
were girls until people were caring fol
them at Echo.
Marshall sold his home and horses
getting about $4,000, and spent that il
hunting them. He went to severa
eastern states, as his wife had relatives
in Pennsylvania. He had sherifEs look
ing for them throughout the country
He would sometimes get trace of then
in Eastern Oregon, but the cI'ew wa
always of two boys, and threw him Of
the track. He thought they must be il
this section, and that is tine reason h
came and lived in Pendleton. Man,
times in his search he crossed their path
but missed them, sometimes by feS
minutes. Last spring he was working
at Freewater, and Clifford was there
but got out before Marshall saw him.

Pendleton Tribune Critic Praises
Athena School Exhibit.

Athena 6cn0Ol EXHIBIT.
Speaking Of the Athena public school
exhibit which is TO go to the Worlds
Fair at St. Louis, critic in the columns
OF the Pendleton Tribune says;
The finest display from Athena are
the relief maps drawn and made by the
pupils Of the fifth grade. The maps
made by these pupils ais good as
could be made by high school pupils in
the great majority Of schools. The maps
are made from paper pulp and represent
the physical outlines Of the country and
its surface. There are in this collection
several maps Of the state OF Oregon
labelled, "Where Rolls the Oregon"
and are excellent. The mountains are
deity placed, while the rivers are
marked with red silk threads, giving the
map very Attractive appearance.
There is especially map Of South
America and one of Asia, of winch the
pupils should be very proud. Con-
sidering that fifth grade pupils did the
york the maps are as near perfection as
it is possible to attain. Professor Now
lin asked Miss Netiie Cannon. the
teacher to furnish some Of this work by
her pupils, although it was little out
of the regular list Of material asked for
by the authorities, but viii be very
acceptable, just the same.
Athena sent other papers aa we'll, and
all Of which were very good. Especially
the kindergarten work of the first year
pupils. Also with the display are pic.
lures Of the school, the grades and the
instructors, which will add materially to
l the effect.
