HONOR MEMORY OF CLINTON
After Nearly Century Body Is Re
moved to New York.

New York, May 2S.--All that is
mortal of George Clinton, first gov
ernor OF New York and twice vice
president of the United States, ar
rived in New York today on the rev.
enue cutter Mohawk The coffin con-
tanning the remains, exhumed at
Washington after an interment of
ninety-six years, was brought ashore
at the battery, where an escorting
parade of United States soldiers.
sailors and marines, guardsmen and
uniformed patriotic organizations,
followed the body of the statesman
of the infant republic to City Hall.
In the governors room of that edi-
flee the body will lie in state until
tomorrow morning, when it will be
taken to Kingston, n. Y, the birth
place of Clinton and now to be his
i last resting place. A United States
! gunboat will convey the body up the
Hudson to Kingston and torpedo
! boat flotilla will act as escort.
The official reception of the body
at Kingston will take place Saturday,
Memorial Day, when David B. Hill
will deliver an Grafton on the life and
work of the first chief executive of
the Empire State. On Monday the
body will be finally inferred, the oc-
casion marking also the 150th ami
versary of the founding of the city
of Kingston.
Since Clinton's death in 1912, the
body has rested in casket of lead
in the old Congressional cemetery at
Washington, but despite the fact
! that nearly century has passed
since that time, the body is in re-
| markable state of preservation. The
chemicals in the soil had petrified
the upper portion of the body and
| head, and even the coat and silk
stockings appeared to be as intact as
the day they were put on
| The elimination was Witnessed in
the national capital by Louis F, Ca
net, g eat grand nephew of Cover
nor Clinton: Benjamin NJ. Brink, OF
Kingston; Chaplain B. r. Hoes, of
the navy Brigadier Robert NJ o.
Reilly, surgeon gHnerai CT the army
and Dr. Marcus Benjamin. one OF
the lCading officials OF the Smithson-
ian Institute and rresidt Mt of the
Society of the War of 1879.
By driving a pole in the earth as
a probe, the metal box was struck
at depth of nearly twenty feet and
brought to light.
Clinton occupied the governor s
lchair of New York for twenty-one
years and was vice-president of the
United States during the last admin
istration of Thomas Jefferson and
the first administration of James
Madison. He was one of the founders
Iof the first republican party, which
Is claimed by the present democratic
Iparty as Its progenitor. 70

SITUATION IN FLOOD DISTRICT
All Refugees Are More or Less Shell
tered in Private Homes.

Dallas, Texas, May 2S.-The fol-
lowing is in brief the situation in the
flooded district between Dallas and
the cement works.
The lower part of West Dallas is
completely flooded, the majority of
the houses lost or shattered, nearly
all personal property of the people
is loss and the live stock of the val
ley farms is practically destroyed
About half way between Dallas and
Cement City the Texas and Pacific
embankment divides the flooded dis
trict from that on this side of the
river. Cement City is not harmed.
The cement works are uninjured.
The West Dallas pike emerges from
the water about the same point
Beyond the Texas and Pacific
track the water is flooded over miles
of valley farms, only the roofs of the
houses being visible. and many de-
stroyed. This flood is known to ex-
tend to the mouth of Mountain
Creek, including Eagle Ford.
The relief committee at West Da1-
las is feeding 1902 persons and is
in immediate need for a steady sup
ply of provisions, large supply OF
bedding of any description and con-
siderable clothing, especially fol-
women and children.
The committee reports the food
situation we'll in hand, but provis-
ions coming in small lots and in a
supply that must not cease If suffer
ing is to be avoided. All refugees are
more or less sheltered at this time
mainly in private homes and vacant
houses.
The relief work is being done in
an orderly manner and there is grave
need but no acute suffering.
1t is believed that a shocking
scene of devastation will be revealed
| by the falling water.
! The committee is endeavoring tc
secure food from Fort Worth and Is
distributing all supplies as fast as
received.
! The only way of reaching Oal
Cliff or West Dallas is by boat from
Dallas The interurban is workins
from Fort Worth to Oak Cliff.

The steel span of the county

An Incendiary Attempts to De-
stroy the Harris County
Temple Of Justice.
PUTS OIL ON STAIRWAY
Ingenious Device Used by Firebug
Who Laid Slow Match Attached
to Bomb.-The Records
Badly Damaged.

Houston, Texas, May 2S.-An at
tempt was made to burn the Harris
county courthouse at noon yester-
day. The attempt proved unsuccess-
full, but resulted in a damage to the
building of not less than $4,000 be-
sides water damage to records in
various courtrooms and offices in the
building
The fire was discovered in the fif-
ty-fifth district courtroom shortly
before 1 O'Clock. At that time law
yers, judges and others interested in
the various courts were returning
from their lunches and the court
house was filling with people. Judge
c. e. Ashe was one of the first to
make the discovery, and after he
gave the alarm a score of men rush
ed through the building to notify the
various occupants to get out.
The fire was started on the stair
way leading up into Judge Hamblen' S
chamber, and in few minutes the
flames had reached the courtroom.
Various officials in the building
hastened to protect their records, and
there was great excitement in all
parts of the building.
An alarm was sent in and the fire
department was less than half an
hour extinguishing the flames. An
investigation as to the couse of the
fire was then made by Sheriff Ander-
son, and he was rewarded by finding

NEGROES USE KNIVES AND GUNS
Shooting Bee at Palmer and Cutting
Scrap at Milford Pulled Off.

The negroes of Ellis county at
tempted to reduce their population
Wednesday night by the free use OF
knives and shot guns. A cutting
scrape occurred at Milford between
two descendants of Ham in which
one of the participants received ug-
ly knife wounds. The assailant who
used the sharp edge steel little too
freely was arrested and placed in the
hold-ove.. Sheriff Forbes was noti-
fed OF the trouble and of the arrest
of one of the negroes. An officer will
be sent to Milford tonight to take
charge of the prisoner.
The little town of Palmer was en-
livened with a shooting bee Wednes-
day night in which two free men of
color took part. One of the gun man
ipulators received a slight wound and
the other lost no time in fleeing
from the country. Offlcers are look
ing for him and it is thought his ar
rest will soon be effected, The
wounded negro was placed in the
calaboose at Palmer and will be
brought to jail here this afternoon,

on the stairway leading to Judge
HambIen's court a large bladder ly-
ing near the top of the stairway fill
ed with kerosene, to which had been
attached long fuse. which had eyi-
IDENTIFY reached to the bottom of the
stairway. This had been ignited, and
as the flames followed the fuse to-
ward the oil it had ignited the car
pets and woodwork on the stairway.
The doors at the top and bottom
of the stairway had been left open,
and this afforded draft that proved
an advantage to the flames. The
bladder contained about gallon of
oil, and it was intact when found, 1t
is believed to have been the idea of
the person who placed the oil there
| that an explosion would have result
| ed in the total destruction of the
building.
| 1t is estimated by insurance men
who made a superficial examination
/ of the damage after the fire that the
loEs will rot be less than $4,000.
