Read More	Frank Spurgeon of Chelan and "Dutch Jake" Maureau of Chelan Falls died at Dr. Piro's hospital in Chelan Saturday afternoon, as the result of injuries sustained when the truck in which they were riding, and which was driven by Mr. Spurgeon, was struck by the down passenger train Saturday morning, when they attempted to cross the tracks at Chelan Falls. Despite the frantic warnings of George Hardenburg Jr., who stood in the road as long as possible and tried to warn the driver of the ill-fated truck, they drove out between a locomotive crane and a number of flat cars, in the face of the oncoming train. The truck was hit about the center, turned over on its side and was shoved down the track ahead of the locomotive for about a hundred yards before the train could be stopped. Both men were found unconscious in the truck when the train stopped. Mr. Maureau has lived here for some 25 years and for a time tended the brewery at the Falls before it shut down. He was a man of about 80 years of age, and so far is known, has no relatives. Funeral services were held at the cemetery Sunday, Rev. Longston officiating. Frank Spurgeon was born in Iowa and when a youth, moved to the northern part of Kansas where he grew to manhood. In 1903 he came to Chelan and has lived in the valley the past 22 years, residing for the most part on this ranch over at the Butte, which he sold a few years ago. After coming to Chelan he was married to Miss Fowler and to this union seven children were born. The ages of the children range from 21 years to 2 years. Funeral services were held at the Will Isenhart home Monday.
