COLONEL FRANCIS MARION
SCHELL; WHO DIED IN
WASHINGTON RECENTLY.

~ RANCIS MARION SCHELL, one
of Washington's few survivors of
the Mexican war, and who has
II long been a familiar figure in that
city, died at the Providence Hos
pital in Washington. D. c., on January
T. after a short illness, of diabetes. The
disease took a form which necessitated
the amputation of one of his limbs, which
he endured with the fortitude which was
a characteristic of his long life. The op-
Grafton was however, unavailing and, af-
ter lingering for a day. he died
Colonel Schell was born in Frederick,
Md, in 1927 but early went to the West.
He served in the Kentucky legion
through the Mexican war, and was
member Of the small and ever-decreasing
band of Mexican veterans which has
yearly called on the President New Year
day. He was also a member of the local
Society of California Pioneers.
During the Mexican war he acquitted
himself with distinction. He was at the
taking of Chapultepec and engaged in
many battles and skirmishes. At the
close of the war he found himself on the
frontier with a naturally rowing DISPOSE
tion already excited by the life in the
West. Just at this time the news came
that gold had been discovered in Califor-
MA, ana the DOy Oh twenty-five caught
the fever. He returned to Indiana for his
young wife, and together they went to
st. Joseph, Mo-, the starting point of the
early travellers to California. His train
ing IN the army fitted him for the post
of leader of the first expedition TO the
Golden Gate and he accepted the charge.
On the tiresome journey across the plains
the party of adventurers had many ex-
periences with the Indians. Captain
SchelTs coolness frequently prevented
serious trouble and their escapes were
numerous.
California was reached at last and an
overland route to the gold fields opened
to others. Captain Schell remained in
California for twenty-five years with the
exception of frequent trips East. In his
various trips back and forth across the
plains he became familiar with the In
dlans, but still had many narrow escapes
from death. An acquaintance with
Colonel William Cody was formed at this
time and Buffalo Bill and Captain Schell
had since then been close friends.
Returning from California to the East
after the civil war, Mr.. Schell settled in
Indiana and resided there a number of
years. He went to Washington as an at
tache of the House of Representatives
under the administrat ton of Speaker
Michael c. Kerr Of Indiana. Colonel
Schell was q close personal friend of the
late Associate Justice Field of the Su-
preme Court, their friendship dating back
from early times in California.
Mr.. Schell was man of large stature
and fine appearance. and until very re-
Gently in robust health for one Of his
age. He had been married for more than
half a century, his wife, three sons and
four daughters surviving him.

HoARY LITIGATION
IS AGAIN REOPENED
Claims Dating From Spanish Grant
Are Brought Before District
Court

civil suit which has come to be known
az an old time standby in the history of
California Jurisprudence was revived yes
terday in the United States District Court
in the form of q petition of Intervention
filed by John c. Hayes and Betty B. Nc
Mullin, which seeks resurvey of the old
Vicente Peralta estate on the shores Of
the Oakland tidal canal. This action re-
calls a case with history.
On January q, 1852, the heirs Of VI
cente Peralta, once an extensive land
holder in the early history of Alameda
County. entered a claim to an extensive
tract of land along the estuary in Oak
land, basing their rights upon an old
Spanish and Mexican land grant. The
case, which failed in the District Court,
was appealed to the United States Su-
preme Court and there the validity of the
claims was allowed and surveys ordered.
On January 20 the litigation was re-
opened in the District Court on the claim
that the former surveys were incorrect
and did not include some 5000 acres of land
which are now in the heart of Oakland
and are worth a fabulous sum- The Dis
tlict Court decided against the suit and
its decision was affirmed by the Supreme
Court. The writ of Intervention filed yes
terday therefore reopens litigation of
almost fifty years standing.

MAKE SERVICE ATTRACTIVE.
Government to Provide Amusements
at Navy Yards.


WASHINGTON, D. C.-With a view
OF making the naval service as at
tractive as possible to enlisted men
and lessening visits to dives and de-.
sertions, the navigation bureau is now
working on a scheme for the estab.
lishment of recreation halls and
grounds in navy yards and stations.
One Of the most complete projects so
far unfolded within reasonable price
came from the Norfolk navy yard.
This plan makes provision for a foot
ball ground, base ball diamond, grand
stand, cinder track, swimming pool
recreation hall, costing $4,000, with
gymnasium and library. dance hall,
and smoking room. 1t is probable
that where sufficient ground can be Sc
cured these Norfolk plans will be
adopted as type for other yards An
appropriation for the purpose will be
requested at the next session of con.
gress.
