place Fridcy afternoon from the
Methodist church, of which she was a
member, Eev. NIX A. Jeffords con-
ducting the services. The funeral was
in charge of the Women of Wood

A CLOSE CALL.

Sunday evening Oscar johnson came
as near supplying tragedy for this
paper to chronicle as any man who
ever lived to tell the story of mar
row escape from trip across the
river Styx Mr.. Johnson is the foreman
over a crew employed by Archie Dib-
bic, who has a sub-contract for canal
work between Oroviile and the in
take of the irrigation system. Sunday
evening johnson and some of his men
were laving their persons in the wa
ters of the Similkameen, just below
the falls Johnson cannot swim, and
when he stepped off a shelf Of rock
he went like plummet to the bottom
in Is feet of water. His companions
were paralyzcd, except their voices,
and they set forth loud alarm. A
young man, whose name could not be
ascertained, which is regretted as he
cannot be given credit for an exhi-
bition OF precence of mind and plucky
action, standing some distance away,
neard the cry for help from the
frightened witnesses of the accident.
Without hesitation he ran to the spot,
jerking off his clothing as he ran, and
diving into tie flo d managed to bring
the unconscious Johnson to the sur
face and from thence TO the shore. Mr.

goner, bat willing hands applied all
the violent means of restoration
known as afficacious in a case of this
kind, and in the course of few min

Last week brief mention was made
of the selection of Prof Frank Funk
houser as secretary to Hon. G. C. Dill,
representing the Fifth district in con-
gress, and further mention is made at
this time of the fact because Mr.. Dill
has been so fortunate as to name a
gentleman "pon whor, Okanogan
county has some claim, and who num-
bers host of warm friends and we'll
wishers throughout the county. Mr..
|Funkhouser is WORTHY i. every respect
of the honor conferred upon him, and
in his confidential relations with Mr.
Dill that gentleman will learn in time
chat he was wise while casting about
for an able and capable confident and
assistant in the capacity to be filled
that he hit upon the man he did. In the
community where best known up this
way Mr.. Funkhouser stands high for
straightforward uprightness and hon
orable dealings with his fellowmen. He
is altogether a manly man, loyal to his
friends, true to his convictions and
fair and just in every relation of life.
During the time tn"t i;c WIS at the
head of the Conconcully schools, that
institution was among the best in the
country as an educational establish
ment, and by training, precept and eX-
ample he had the strongest athletic
association OF any school in the county.
1t was his honest endeavor in that line,
his insistance upon clean sports and
his willingness to play fair with all
competitors that made him so popular
among the people of the neighboring
towns. A short sketch of Mr.. Funk
housers life at this time is not map
propriate.
Frank Funkhouser was born in Har-
rison county, Indiana, September 10,
1888, and hence is 80 years of age. He
was educated in the public schools of
that county, and subsequently finished
his education at Valparaiso university
and at the Indiana university. He
taught school in his native state for
four years before coming west. From
Indiana he moved to Washington, and
during his residence in this state has
been engaged in several different lines
made good For four years he was at
the head of the schools at Conconcully
as principal, and filled the position
very creditably of secretary of the
|Conconcully Commercial Club. At diff
ferent times he has been connected
with the widely known book and sta
|tionery houce of Join W. Graham, of
Spokane, and for the past year has
been employed by the American Book
company as its representative in East
eIn Washington, with headquarters in
sic DillabOug' of Conconcully, in 1912
Mr.. Funkhouser has been a life long
democrat. He was a member of the
state democratic convention at Indian
apolis that endorsed Hon. John W.
Kern for the senate. He was a prom
inent factor in the Okanogan county
democratic convention in 1912, and
worked diligently to have the dele
gates instructed to support Woodrow
Wilson at the state convention in Wal
la Walla. He is a member of the
Congregational church, and his present
residence is at 307 Sixth avenue, Spo-
