BUSINESS PIONEER ACTIVE Old-Timer Still Interested in All Commercial and Political Doings of City in Which He Lived More Than Half Century. John McCraken, one of the oldest liv ing members of the group of Portland pioneers in business, yesterday re ceived congratulations of the day from hundreds of his friends. It was the 87th anniversary of Mr. McCraken. and 60 of these years have been devoted to business In this city. Mr. McCraken was born In London, June 11, 1826. of Scotch parents, with whom he came to America in 1832. At 11 years of age he was left an orphan. In 1849 he came West lured by the stories of the gold strikes in California, He sailed around the Horn to San Fran cisco. Before leaving the East Mr. Mc Craken organized the Greenwich & California Mining & Trading Company. In 1849 he came to the Northwest and became associated with General Joseph Lane and sons in the Island Mills. He was appointed United States Mar shal by President Buchanan in 1851. During the Indian war of 1855-56 he served as Quartermaster-General with the rank of Colonel. Business Ability Shown. Mr. McCraken entered the commis sion business In 1856, later merging It into grocery and supply business, which he developed into a wholesale suddIv business which bore his name and of which he was for years the active head. For many years he was a stockholder and director of the Commercial National Bank. Politically. Mr. McCraken has played an active part in both state and munic ipal affairs. He was a Republican mem ber of the Legislature in 1901, and served at one time as president of the Council. In both the Chamber of Commerce and Commercial Club he was active from the time they were organized. He was one of those Instrumental in founding the former body. His fraternal affiliations also, have made Mr. McCraken widely known. He is a Mason of high degree. For two terms he was grand master of the Grand Lodge of Oregon and for two terms high priest of the Grand Chapter. He has been eminent commander of the Portland Commandery and he was elected to the 33d degree ia the Scot tish Rite Masons. Honors Offered by Club. Recently, in recognition of his ac tivities in the Portland Commercial Club, the board of directors conferred upon him honorary membership. For many years Mr. McCraken has been one of the familiar figures about the club quarters, and while the late George H. Williams was living, a billiard game between the two used to be a daily event of their club associations. Mr. McCraken, although retired from active business, retains a keen Interest In all of the affairs of the city, and is a noticeable and familiar participant in public functions in the political and commercial life of Portland. SCHOOL AFFAIRS PUZZLE DISTRICT SPLIT AXD 0TE HAS NO BTJILiDIXG. Bonds Sold and Fund Tied TJp by In. junction at Imbler in Union County. LA GRANDE, Or.. July 11. (Spe cial.) Another complication has arisen in Imbler School District No. 11 over the division of the district by the Union County Court The old district comprised Imbler proper with some outlying territory. The new district will be No. 78. The division at this particular time adds to the complications already ex isting, as the old district, which in cluded the new district as a whole voted bonds for $20,000 for the Wuilding of a school house. The bonds have been sold and resold and the money Is on deposit in the Imbler Bank. The new school house idea, which came up sev eral years ago, has caused all the trouble. ' - One portion of the district wanted a new school house, while the other did not An election was held, bonds were voted for the building of the school house, and the opponents enjoined the district from using the money obtained from the sale of the bonds for any purpose and the fund is still tied up. The splitting up of the district is the cause of much speculation as to what can be done with the money derived from the bonds, also what the portion of the old district, which now comprises the new district, will do for school this Fall, as the old school house lies in the original district EXPERT SWIMMER DROWNS Astoria Man Sinks to His Death Only 10 Feet From Shore. William Mackey, of Astoria, reputed an expert swimmer, was drowned half a mile above Sellwood on the west side of the Willamette, at 4:20 o'clock yes terday afternoon, and one hour later the body was recovered by Hugh Brady, municipal grappler. Mackey is thought to have been 32 years old. Fur ther than that his home was at As toria, the officers could obtain little Information. He was attending a pic nic given by a party of Scandinavians and swam to the center of the river and had returned to within 10 teet of the shore, when he sank. Those on shore could not lend aid owing to the steep bank. The body was brought here and turned over to the Coroner. The ac cident is viewed as another that shows the need for a pulmotor, as resuscita tion has been claimed in some cases several hours after the sinking of a body. Plans have been made for in cluding a pulmotor in the equipment of the harbor patrol station, but the ma chine has not been deliverea. WORK ON BRIDGE IS MOVING Good Progress Shown in Repairs on Burnside Span. Repairs on the Burnside bridge are progressing rapidly In accordance with the promise of Superintendent Murnane. On the approach something more than half the work has been completed. The steel span over East Second street has been put In place and the second span oi toe same Kind is being placed above t East First street As fast as the piles are driven the roadway la finished up and planked. The street railway tracks will be relaid, and space Is left for the rails. It was supposed that the opening of the bridge to pedestrians would be de layed by the draw repairs, but the in dications are now that it will be in condition to be operated as soon as the approach can be used by pedes trians. To supervise the repairs being made on the bridge the County Commission ers have employed F. W. Moore, an expert bridge engineer. Mr. Moore wrote a letter, in which he said the cost of his services would be not to exceed $300. In a preliminary report on the bridge he criticised the way in which the trusses are arranged. He said the work should be finished within a couple of weeks if properly handled. Mr. Moore's employment was over the objections of County Commissioner Lightner.
