"While Colonel Tucker, whose age
was 60, was a native or uosion, nia
family removed to Chicago while
Colonel Tucker was but seven years
of age. The father was a prominent
pioneer business man of Chicago, hav
ing been for years at the neaa 01 me
Stock Yards bank.
Colonel LcavM Widow.
Colonel Tucker is survived by his
jwidow, who accompanied the body to
Portland and who will leave with the
remains Monday for Chicago, where,
beside his parents and grandparents,
interment will take place in the old
family lot at Graceland cemetery.
Colonel Tucker leaves two sisters.
Mrs. Thomas Edward Wilder of Elm
hurst, a Chicago suburb, and Mrs.
Jennie Tucker Johnson of Blooming
ton, 111. Seven nephews and two
nieces survive. His first wife, by
whom he was divorced, was a daugh
ter of the late General John A. Logan.
Colonel Tucker received his first
commission as a major of the pay
master's department in 1882. He filled
many important positions during his
military career of 27 years, having
retired because of ill health 10 years
ago, while stationed in Chicago.
Scores of army officers, whom he
then ranked, have Won international
note since in the (treat world war.
When in Chicago Colonel Tucker
was on the statr or lienerai rrea

General Leonard Wood's staff.

War Service On Record.
In addition to serving In the Span
ish-American war and in the Geroni-
mo campaign, in the Philippines and
in the Arctic Colonel Tucker has seen
service at most of the army posts
aloncr the Canadian border.
Colonel Tucker had won the hearts
of Hood River people during his 10
years of residence here. His was al
ways a military bearing and he was
possessed with old time courtesy.
He was fond of children ana ne
and his wife on their visits to Hood
River found delight in visiting fam
ilies of friends with little ones.
Colonel Tucker's death resulted
from disease contracted in the Phil
ippine islands. Ten years ago he un
derwent an operation that surgeons
feared might result fatally. His life
was undoubtedly prolonged by the
simple routine of an upper valley
orchardist. He had made good re
cuperation, and was In fairly rugged
health when the fatal hemorrhages
started last Saturday.

William F. Tucker, prominent resi
dent of Hood River, who passed away

evening at 9 o'clock in the Scottish
Rite cathedral. The body was
brought from Hood River to Portland
yesterday and will be taken east to
night for interment.
says it is no affair of the war de
partment's. He .says he understands that repre
sentations were made to the British
embassy by the manufacturers' asso

this advice and petition the British
government ordered that a large
quantity of Australian wool be sold
at auction in this country.

To Get Fatal Dose One Would Have

O. A. C. Chemist.
HOOD RIVER, Or., Nov. 1. (Spe
cial.) R. H. Robinson, associate
chemist of the Oregon Agricultural
college school of agriculture and ex
periment station, who has completed
examination of apples from Oregon
orchards which bear deposits of spray
material, declares that it would be
impossible to eat a sufficient number
to cause fatal arsenical poisoning.
Mr. Robinson's laboratory tests of
the fruit followed a recent alarm
raised by Boston health authorities,
who ordered the condemnation of
California Bartlett pears and Yakima
Jonathan apples, declaring the fruit
dangerous for food purposes.
"I endeavored to obtain samples
with exceptionally large quantities of
spray sediment left on the fruit and
consequently picked apples from trees
that had received five applications
during the season, writes Mr. Robin
son. "Although the strength of these
applications was double that ordi
narily used by horticulturists chem
ical analysis of these apples showed
that the average amount was only
.0007 grams of arsenic. To ge
an average fatal dose it would be
necessary for a. person to eat 306
apples."
