TWO PIONEERS REMOV.
Ed BY DEATH
Alex WOmack and Rev. Richard
Barrett Follow Each Other
Closely to Final Home.

The death this week of Alexander
Womack and Rev. Richard Barrett
removes two of the early pioneers of
this section, two of the grand old boys
who served their country in the Civil
war, two men who by their sturdy
traits of character had endeared them
selves to very many of the old timers
as well as to those of younger years.
Both had passed the allotted -four
score years and ten," and both lived
years of usefulness even though their
paths were widely divergent and their
views of life largely at variance. They
were born within two years of each
other, responded to their country's
call within a few months of each
other, the coming to Idaho of one pre-
ceded that of the other only six
years, and while one was being tender
ly laid to rest in his last resting place,
the other answered the call of the
Grim Reaper. Both of them were
charter members of Fremont Post G.
A. R., and of the six who signed the
roll only two remain. Through born
under different flags, both were true
and patriotic American citizens and
freely gave the flower of their man.

Richard Barrett.

Born in Kamberen, England, June
27, 1884. Died November 21, 1916,
aged 50 years, months and "a days.
The following account of his life
was prepared and read by his pastor,
Rev. c. A. Quinn, who conducted the
funeral services in the Methodist
church yesterday afternoon:
At the age of 212ye ars, the parents
immigrated to America and came to
Linden, Wis, where he grew up to
manhood August 21, 1862, he was
united in marriage to Susan D. Over
ton at Platteville, Wis, and the same
week the young husband enlisted in
the army and marched forth in the
defense of his country and flag and
served faithfully and we'll until honor
ably discharged three years and four
months later. He was converted at
the age of IA years in a revival meet
ing at an old-fashioned Methodist
mourner's bench. He never doubted
for one moment his conversion, his
Christian experience being clear and
bright. He soon felt called to preach
and at the age of IS was licensed as
an exhorter, then to preach, and for
several years as local preacher did
most effective and acceptable work.
In 1877 he, with his family, came west,
and in September joined the Columbia
River conference, and served the fol-
lowing charges: Boise valley, Sum- !
Yakima, Alder Creek, Mi /
chel, Wasco, Pilot Rock, Asotin, and
Emmettsville in 1SS9-1901. His health /
failing, he took retired relation, /

TO the very last. Pioneering is no
,hild's play anywhere, and preemin-
sntly is this true in the west. But he (
'aced his task unflinchingly, and laid
he foundation well. He was a faith
'ul pastor and preacher of the word.
As he was good soldier for his coun-
ry, so he used the same energy and
idelity in fighting the battles for his
ord. This memorir would not be

BIG LUMBERMAN
In EMMETT
F. G.. Wyerhauser Here to Inspect
Progress of New Mill.

Frank G. Wyerhauser of St. Paul,
Mimi, an official of the great lumber
firm that bears his name, was in En-
NETT this week in company with Gen
eral Manager c. A. Barton, of the
Boise-Payette Lumber company, of
which he is heavy stockholder. The
object of mis- visit here was to inspect
the new mill.
Mr.. Wyerhauser is very optimistic
over the future of the lumber indus
try. He says the demand for west
ern lumber must naturally grow rap
idly from now on for the eastern
mills can no longer supply nearly the
quantity they have in the past and
each year will see a reduction of their
output. 1t is estimated by some that
in 10 years the western mills must
supply so per cent of the product that
is now supplied by the eastern manu-
facturer.
This statement of Mr.. Weyerhauses
is of peculiar significance to Emmett
on account of the location here of one
of the company's big mills, and means
that this city's Importance as a lum-
Der manufacturing center will in
crease year by year as the enormous
timber resources tributary are de-

in the dark hours Of their pioneer
work, in moments of discouragement,
her healthy optimism, her strong faith
her ture piety, ever urged him on, and
victory many times was snatched from

wives of the ministers of today. For
about % years he had been a resident
of this city, and known and loved by
all. He preached the word just as
long as he could, and best of all he
lived it until the end came. This
mortal is forced to lay aside its cloak,
but Immortality is its heritage. The
grave receives the silent form of our
earth house, but is soon robbed of its
victory. We call this event in hu-
man history, death. But yesterday
afternoon at 2:15 was Father Bar

been preparing for it, and he was not
disappointed. He was a member of
the local G. A. r. post and W. r. C.
Only seven of the boys now remain.
He leaves to mourn his loss, the

The First to Report

The state department of education
announced yesterday that Miss Alice
Holverson, county superintendent of
schools in Gem county, is the first of
all county superintendent in the state
to file reports on all school rooms in
the schools of her county with the de-
partment, under the rural school CEN
tralization system inaugurated the
first of the present year and which so
far has been pronounced success.
The net result is, the state department
is now in possession of some very
valuable data regarding the condition
of the schools in Gem county, the eff
cheney of the teachers and the ad-
vancement made by the pupils as well
as the condition Of the school rooms
and school buildings.

FIRE DESTROYS EMMETT
GARAGE
Ten Automobiles Valued at SlO.-
900 Burned-Loss Near
Iy $4,000.

Fire this morning destroyed the
building and plant of the Emmett
Garage & Auto Company, and the
automobiles and motorcycles in stor-
age. The building was completely
Quilted and only the brick walls re-
main. The loss on the plant and auto
mobiles is about $500, and on the
building about $500. The plant car
ried no insurance, and only two or
three of the cars we're insured. The
building is owned by Craig Coffin OF
Boise. 1t is not known whether he
carried insurance or not.
The cause of the fire, while not de-
finitely known, is believed to have
been an explosion of the vulcanizer.
Ray Hartley, who was repairing a
car. discovered the blaze first around
the vulcanizer, and he and his part
ner, Joe Kelley, quickly applied the
contents of two Pyrene extlnguishers-
Instead of smothering the flames, the
LIQUID added fuel to them, and the

turned to getting out the automobiles
which filled every available space IN
the garage proper. But the spread
of the flames was so rapid that none
of the cars was saved, and only few
tires and accessories stored in the Of
flee were removed.
The fire department quickly re-
sponded, but on account OF one OF the
hydrants being frozen, water was not
available for at least 10 minutes. The
chemical apparatus was out of COM
mission.
The Emmett Garage & Auto COM
pany is composed of ]. W. Burton,
Ray Hartley and Joseph Kelley. The
last two recently became members of
the firm. At that time an invoice of
the plant, exclusive of the cars owned,
showed an investment of $4,000. 1t
is doubtful if the salvage will exceed
$500. Ten cars and three motorcycles
were stored in the building and all
are practically a total loss. The
owners are:
Van Deusen Bros, two Studebaker

The Turk That Laid Golden Eggs.

the Goose that Laid the Golden Egg
is no doubht familiar to many Index
readers. But Mrs. Harvey DeClark
has hen turkey that has the le-
gendary goose beat forty ways for
Sunday" Last spring this turkey
laid enough eggs to make a setting
and three dozen to boot. She hatched
a nest of young turks. Last week
Mrs. DeClark sold the young turks
for S4S.40. The three dozen eggs were
eaten by the family and were worth
at least 25 cents a dozen, making a
total revenue from that one hen of
