Stephen johnson Answers Final
Summons.

Elder Stephen johnson of tn.
! Church of the Brethren, died OF
January 31st at his home at 1905
Montgomery Ave-, Spokane, Wn.
from complications resulting from
a fell sustained two months ago.
The funeral was conducted
from the family home on Febru.
ary 3rd, and the remains were
laid to rest in the Riverside Park
cemetery, Spokane.
Elder johnson was born in
Green county, Psnnsylvania, on
July 20, 1889. He went to Ohio
when he was 19 years Of age, and
was united in marriage to Eliza
beth Hardinger at Mt. Vernon,
that state, on March 7th, 1865.
They moved to Benton county,
Iowa, in 1866, where he took up
farming with other hardy pion-
eers. They came to Nezperce in
1897, where, in the same year, he
and G. w. Thomas, nov deceased,
organized the Church Of the
Brethren, which has since flour
ished and is today one of the
religious institutions in
the prairie country. Besides this,
Mr.. johnson took a large interest
in the development and upbuild-
ing of the country and left this
disposition strong in his fine fam
lily of children, who took up the
" ork where advancing age reqlir-
ed him to lay it down. In the
fall of 1902 he and his wife NOV
ed to Laverne, California, and
five years ago they went to Spo-
kane. where they had since made
their home.
He is survived by his wife, Eli
three daughters and four
sons-Mrs. E. w. Jones, Mrs. 1.
H. Jorgens and Mrs. Olive Cox,
all Of Spokane; 2. A., Of Lewis
ton, w. F. and Geo. p, Of Nez-
perce. and j. NJ, Of Spokane.
Elder johnson belonged to that
honest pioneer type of
and integrity Of purpose was new
sr questioned, whose conduct to-
ward his fellow men and his Crea-
;or was ever such that no occas
on for doubt ever arose. It was
BY and through .modestlv noble
characters such as his that the |
was here laid for a
nation of people who might con-
rol the destinies Of the world. and
maintain such control SO long as
he higher ideals lived up to by I
jhese patriarchs should rule.

Red Cross Leaving
Siberia.

The following letter, referring
to the article in last weeks Her

this place who has spent almost
year in the Red Cross service in
Siberia, was received Tuesday
evening from his wife, who re-
sides in Spokane, and brings good

cerned about Chancey's safety.

Mrs. Chancey Wallace.
Statement given as follows:
Washington, Nan. 18.-In ac-
cordance with the government 4
plans for the withdrawal next
month of American troops and
railway engineering units from
Siberia the American Red Cross
today announced curtailment of
its relief operations in that coun.
try. A cablegram has been sent
from National Headquarters to
Vladivostok instructing the Red
Cross Commission to arrange for
the withdrawal with the military
of all Red Cross women person
mel and such other personnel as is
not needed to look after relief
supplies already shipped into
Siberia. This will require several
weeks and will leave in the field
only the men concerned with sup
ply, warehouse, accounting and
general administrative work con-
nected with giving the distressed
population all the help possible.
The cable instructs the commits
sion to arrange for the continue
ton Of such relief measures for the
civilian population as is practi-
cable under the circumstances,
through the distribution Of sup
plies already on hand and oth'r
forms of Red Cross service. It is
planned to dispatch special rep
from National Head
quarters to assist in thus closing
operations in the Siberian field,
which will probably include the
distribution Of drugs and other
medical supplies, so previously
needed by the hospitals, that are
now in the hands Of the Red Cross
commission and the American mil

Can Now Get army Goods At
Lewiston.

A store for the distribution of
army goods has been opened at
Lewiston for the convenience of
customers in the territory served
by that city. In this connection
yesterdays Tribune said:
A shipment Of army goods, COM
prising one and one-half car
loads. was not diverted to La
Grande, Ore, but instead the cars
are now in Lewiston yards, with
the result that the army store
will be opened here possibly as
early as tomorrow and the goods
offered the public at cost.
This development became pub
lie yesterday upon receipt OF in
formation by Mayor Osmers by
telephone from A. r. Roberts, who
made arrangements a few weeks
ago to open store here about
February /, that the railroad com
pany had failed to divert goods
routed to Lewiston to LaGrahde
so that the necessity has arisen
Of opening the Lewiston store at
this time. The goods were routed
to Lewiston from the army depot
at Portland some time ago, but
got caught behind a washout on
the Riparia line.
The conditions under which
these army stores are opened in a
city require that the mayor re-
ceipt for the goods and be respon-
sible, for the transmittal of the
sales returns to the government.
Mayor Osmers has received the in
voice Of the goods now here which
include shoes, rubber boots, blank
cts, underwear, socks; tomatoes,
bacon, prunes and other lines.
With the opening of the store the
price list will be published, this
being fixed by the government
and does not vary regardless OF
the quantity purchased, the plan
being that the limited purchaser
shall secure the same values rs
the person who may buy in larger
quantities. However, no person
can buy beyond his needs, pur-
chase for resale being violation
of law against which the purchas-
er is warned when he secures the
goods.

Frank Shaw Pneumonia Victom

Frank Lay ton Shaw, a mechan.
ic in the employ of the B. J. Fike
garage in this city for about sc
days, died last Thursday evening
of pneumonia, at the home of Mr.
and Mrs. Wade Temple, where he
was boarding. He was IS years
of age, and leaves wife and sew
en- children on a place they are
hom'esteading near Columbus,
Montana.
The remains were held here un-
til Monday morning, when they
were accompanied back to Mon
tana by the eldest son of the de-
ceased, R. D. Shaw, a fine young
man Of about 21 years of age, who
arrived here Sunday in answer to
a message announcing the serious
illness Of his father, but ignorant
Of the fatal result until after
reaching this city.
The deceased was good man,
a member of the Odd Fellows
lodge. and a loving father and
husband, and. like many other
home-makers in the northwest, he
had gone out in the world to seek
employment during the winter
months that he might better pro-
vide for his family, while they
"held down" the claim that
would ultimately be a home and
provide a "grub-stake" for them
all. His passing is indeed sad and
calls forth the sympathy of his
fellow men.
