DEATH OF COL. c. II. GRAY
One Of the Earliest White Hen TO Set.
tie in This Country.

Col. c. H. Gray died at six O'Clock
yesterday morning at his home south
of the city. The Republican had an
nounced that he would hardly survive
the night. The cause of death was
cancer of the stomach, of which he
had suffered for a long time. Fol-
months his death had been regarded
as inevitable and for days it had been
considered imminent.
For days before his death he had
frequently asked the day of the month.
The inquiry was made so often that
his friends wondered until it occurred
to them that his birthday was ap-
preaching. He survived the anniver-
sary of his birth by a single day.
Col. Gray was born in Gadsden
county, Fla, on August %, 1888. He
came to the coast by the way of Pan
ANA when very young man and en-
gagged i'm mining in California He re-
manned there until the outbreak of the
civil war when he returned to the
south and Joined the confederacy. He
served through an enlistment of three
years and entered upon another in
which he served until near the close
of the war.
In 1865 he was married to Miss
Mary Norris in Arkansas where he
had lived after leaving Florida and be-
fore his journey to the coast. His
wife is sister of Mr.. f c. Norris
former chairman of the board of sup
ervisOrs of this county. Soon after his
marriage he started west again. this
time overland. He settled in the Salt
River valley on the land where he
died. His wife was the first white wo-
man i'm the valley. There was no
Phoenix then and no thought of one
for that was in 1869.
Though he devoted himself extern
sively to farming he was always eX-
tensively engaged i'm the mining bus
mess, sometimes extensively. He was
one of the early owners of the famous
Harqua Hala mine which he, Frank
Kirkland and A. C. Hubbard bought
for about $4,000. He and Kirkland
afterward sold their interest to Hub
bard and subsequent partner. George
Bowers. to an English syndicate for
81 100000 1t is now in the sole pos
session of Hubbard again. For some
years Col. Gray had been operating
the africa mine on the California side
of the Colorado.
In earlier years Col. Gray took an
active part in local politics. He serv-
cd two terms as member OF the
board Of supervisors. He was a can
didate for the territorial council
against the late King Woolsey. The

RESCUED FROM
A FLOE OF ICE
Seven Persons Had a Peril
Gus Ride Down the East
River
BARGFS TORN FROM MOORINGS

New York, Feb. 1S.-After peril
Dus. swift and enforced ride Of more
than three-Quarters Of mile down the
East river In a huge ice Zoe. seven
persons. including several women and
children, were rescued by a municipal
vessel The foe. which stretched from
North Brother Island to the Bronx
shore. drifted down the river with
the tide. and in its passage tore from
their moorings the James ID. Perkins
and the Eureka. two coal barges
which had been fastened TO the pier
at 139th street with rope and steel
cables. On the Perkins were Captain
Henry Flood, his wife and their little
daughter. Captain John Catzner, of
the Eureka, had on board with him
his wife and two sons, one a youth.
During their dangerous experience a
heavy rain fell. the river was tor
rent and the barges upon which they
were were surrounded by the foe,
which was headed toward Hell Gate.
AS the barges we're loaded with coal
to within q few feet of their decks the
ice became piled on them to such an
extent that several times they nearly
capsized When the stesl hawsers
parted the women and clffidren We're
panic-striclen They cried and shouted
alternately. The men buckled life pre-.
servers on the women and children
and waved red lanterns, while they
shouted in the hope that their cries
would be heard by passing craft.
The crunching ice threatened To
drown these shouts, and the ice was
forced up on top of the bargos so fast
that tho mon were kept busy pushing
back the larger cakes TO prevent the
two craft from oyerturning.
The captain of the steamer Frank
lin Edson. of the department of chari
tics and corrections. became aware oil
the bargos predioament, and ordering
fun steam ahead. forced his vesse
through the ice to the aid of the en-
dangcred occupants. After consider
able effort the Edison tied up along
side the barges. and then with still
greater effort the -wemen and children
were taken aboard Then the steamer
started back for the barges pier.
