DEATH PROPHECY FULFILLED
Aged Woman Declares Last Day Has Come, Dons Burial Robe
 and Dies.

With presentiment that she would die, Mrs. Anna c. Paul aged 80 years, donned her burial robes at her home in Ocosta, Wash. the other day and a few hours later passed peacefully away.
 Mrs. Paul had told her children sev- eral days before that she would die on that particular day. That morning she arose at an early hour and told her sons that 1t would be her last day on earth. She proceeded to array herself in a neat black dress, which she had made the day before, and in which she requested to be buried.
 After kissing the members of her family farewell she laid down in her room, and, folding her arms, fell into a peaceful sleep. Her sons allowed her to slumber an hour, but when they ap- preached the bedside they were as- founded to find that she was dead
 Mrs. Paul was native of Germany, and leaves a husband and two sons. One son, Robert, is mayor of Ocosta.

General Funston, Promoted For
 Bravery I'm the Field, Gives Facts.
 PORTLAND, Ore, May 2S The fol lowing account of the swimming of the Bagbag river by General Funston at Calumpit, Philippine Islands, April 26, 1899, and the swimming of the Rio Grande the day following by two sol diers of the Kansas regiment has been given out by General Funston:
 "A body of 4,000 or more Filipinos who were on the far side of the Rio Grande had been harassing the Ameri- can forces. On April 26, 1899, General Funston, accompanied by a skirnish- ing party, swam the Bagbag, a small stream about 100 feet wide, which is a tributary to the Rio Grande This act has been confused with and magnified into the swimming of the Rio Grande the following day, April 27, by two soldiers from the Kansas regiment, which preceded the routing of the 4,OOO Filipinos by forty-fve American sol diers.
 These soldiers carried line with them, with which they drew across a heavier one. To the latter raft was fastened and drawn across. When for tyAf1ve soldiers and General Funston had been ferried over, the detachment routed the Filipinos.
 "I am glad to present the facts as they are and clear the matter up."
