RIVERSIDE

RIVERSIDE, July 23-(Regular Core
spondence) Charles Hutchins, who was
accidentally shot at San Jacinto a few
days ago, died last night of his injuries.
Albert Reinhardt, who is responsible for
the mans death, is almost crazed with
grief at the fatal termination of the acct
dent. Young Renhardt was coming home
just at dusk, and saw what he supposed
was a badger in the weeds by the side of
the road. He got a gun and shot the sup
posed ANIMAL which, on closer eXamina-
ton, proved to be a man dead drunk. The
victims arm was almost shot off, and am
putation was necessary. The coroner and
district attorney went-to San Jacinto this
afternoon and held an inquest over the re-
mains. They exonerated Reinhardt from
blame in the matter.
Work was begun today on the new Burt
block at the corner of Main and Eighth

THE FRIGATE CONSTITUTION
Secretary Herbert Advocates Her Removal
to the National Capital.
He Tells of RecOmme m datious He Has
Made to Congress on
the Subject.

Secretary Herbert is an earnest and pa
trfotic advocate OF the plan for the preser-
walton of the frigate Constitution and her
removal to the national capital, where she
can be viewed and honored by all American
citizens. In conversation with Star re-
porter on the subject today he said:
OF the old revolutionary navy we still
nave two precious relics-the Constitution
and the Hartford. The old Constitution, SO
glorious in the war of 1872 lays routing at
the Portsmouth navy yard. In my annual
reports L have repeatedly recommended
that sufficient sum of money be appro-
priated to repair and insure her presarva-
ton, but the appeal has been UNDECIDED
1t was my pleasure to report the bill ir
congress that was to take The Hartford
out OF the usual category of decaying
woo den ships, and insure her preservation
as menmento of the splendid ac hieye-
ments CT Farragut and the heroes who
.rod e, rer decks in the brave days of the
ei'll war and 1t has been my privilege 10
direct the repairs upon her until they are
already nearing completion. But Congress
mas, SO FAR, ignored all my appeals in be-
half Of the Constitution.
When many years ago the Nayy Denart-
ment contemplated breaking up the old

exist, terminating with the death Of the
men who compose their membership; and
these organizations have accumulated rec
ords, books, papers, relics, works of art and
other property of great historic interest,
which are likely to be dispersed and lost
unless some provision is made for their

by suitable memorial the memory of the
three great leaders. one in civil, one in mil
itary and the other in naval life under
whose leadership our country was preserv-
ed from disorganization. and the memory
of Lincoln, Grant and Farragut will be to
all future generations an inspiration to

much to save"

tion,'' with full power to purchase a suit
able lot of land in the city of Washington
and erect and maintain thereon a building,
to be known as 'The Abraham Lincoln.
Ulysses 8. Grant and David G. Farragut
Memorial Building" The building is to be
set apart as q place for the preservation
of such records, books, papers, relics and
other property Of historical interest and
value in connection with the late war of the
rebellion as may from time to time be re-
ceived from associations Of Union veterans
Of that war, or from other sources. The
corporation may receive and hold works of
art representing scenes in the civil war or
the heroes of that struggle.
The sum Of $1O0.O 900 is appropriated out of
the funds in the treasury not otherwise ap-
propriated, which shall be the contribution
of the United States government toward
the erection of a suitable memorial to the
memory Of Abraham Lincoln, Ulysses s.
Grant and David G. Farragut. and the off,
GERS, soldiers and sailors who served under
command Of these officers during the wal
Of the rebellion. and the collection and

leadership, saved the nation from disunion
