MANY HONOR!
HIS MEMORY
Funeral Procession of Col. It.
F. Campbell Perhaps the
Largest Ever Wit-
nessed Here. .
ORGANIZATIONS IN LINE
liefore ,»e«n in the cemetery. TO*
grave was literally banked and on
adjoining lot was completely covorod.
Among the denigma Which were too
numerous to admit of single -mention,
was a large ptonem’ axe, the emblem
of this association, made from the
moat beautiful selcctton of flowers
that could to to tamed
As the casket was lowered into the
grave many of the. floral designs wore
placed on t'p of It and then covered
with a hood to protect them from
the dirt. The large crowd remained
lo see the last clod of earth placed
on the heap of ground which marks
the last resting place of the honored
dead.
A filling tribute to tjie memory of
the man, the funeral of the late ex-
Mayor K. F, Camptoll yesterday after
noon was perh»i» the largest and
most impressive ever held In El Paso.
Hundreds of friends of the deceased
turned out to do his memory honor
and io witness the last sad rites, wak-
ing a funeral cortege that surpassed j
In length any ever before seen In El
Paso.
At 3:15 the police and Are depart-
ment. formed in Unde at their respec-
tive headquarters and marched to the
residence, 701 Mesa avenue, At the I
same time the E) Paso Pioneers' as-!
sociailon marched to the residence
and tiled through the house, where
they took a last look upon the face
of i.he departed. The house, the yard
and the street for several hundred
feet were literally filled with people
Who had come to attend the funeral, j
At. -1 o'clock the funeral service
was started. A mixed choir eom-
posed of Mrs. Henry W. Moore, M1s»
Garrett, Mrs, Howe and Mrs. W, R. j
Drown sang a beautiful song and the
Rev. E. M, Waits, pastor of the First
Christian church, then delivered a
short hut. touching and impressive
funeral sermon.
Long Procession Follows Body.
At the, conclusion of the services at
fix* house the funeral procession be-
gan the march to Evergreen cemetery,
headed by the entire isdice force In
uniform. Then followed tne Are de-
partment with all the apparatus in
line, draped in mourning.
Next in line came the Pioneers’ as-
sociation, headed by Honorary Presi-
dent Treyer and Pioneer Lee Rober-
son, carrying the pioneers’ axee
draped In crepe, and followed by the
secretary, 8. H. Newihan, carrying
t he association record. Then followed
the other Pioneers, marching by twos!
and about fifty in number. Each1
Pioneer wore a badge of white silk
-with the word "Pioneer" printed in
black letters and a sprig of evergreen
The Pioneers were followed by the
pallbearers In four carriages. The ac-
tive paJlbearers wore .1. H. Pollard,
.1 H. Russell, M. 0, Edwards, Waters
Davis, ,1. M. Dean, .1, A. Uuckler,
Frank Doles and George Flory, The
honorary pallbearers were O&pt.
Charles Davis, Joseph Magoffin, 1), F.
Hammett, R. Caples, R. C. Ugh(l««ly,
MaJ. W, J Fowel, Judge Wytulham
Kemp and Capt. T. J. Beall.
Then followed the hearse carrying
the, earthly remains of thP deceased,
followed by the chief mourners In car-
riages and the remainder of the pro-
cession was made up of a string of
carriages over a mile in length.
The oqnego moved down Mesa av-
enue to Texas street and proceeded
east on this street. At the. corner of
Campbell and Texas streets the fire1
department fell out and the police and
Pioneers opened ranks. The police
then fell out while the .Plungers re-
formed In line and marched to Ran
Antonio and Campbell si reels, whore
a funeral car especially arranged for
the occasion and appropriately draped
wag In waiting for them, aud which
by the way, was the firm funeral ear
ever used In this city.
At the cemetery the Pioneers led !
the procession through the galea and I
to the grave around -which they form-
'd In position with Vice President
Hand and the chaplain at the head of
the grave and the secretary at the
foot. The beautiful and impressive
ceremony of the Pioneers was then
commenced by the acting president,
announcing the purpose or the we
rlety and appropriately referring to
the deceased and Ids relations to the
ttssoclatkm ending by ••ailing upon the
chaplain to deliver the beautiful ritu-
alistic prayer of flic association. The
prayer was punctuated throughout by
renpousoa front the pioneers. Then
the choir which had sung at the house
mmg by request of the pioneers tile
funeral odo of the same association,
"Nearer My God To Thee."
The lMUH.Hlict.ion followed and this
concludod the ceremony of tho pion-
eers. 'The Rev. Walts then committed
ttie tody to earth and the choir sang
"Abide With Me.”
Such a profusion of beautiful and
magnificent oral offerings were never
THE AMAZON COUNTRY.
Stories of Wonderful Opportunities
There Are Misleading.
Just now there is a erase to go to
the Amazon river to make quick for-
tunes. Young men with from <250
to $1,000 capital are on the way
there to mine coal, cut hardwoods,
raise rattle and grow rubber. The
Amazon country has been cracked
up to lie an El Dorado. It Is In real-
ity an ignuK faluus, says Leslie’s
Weekly. Avoid it as you would a
plague. North Americans know ab-
solutely nothing about the mightiest
of rivers and the territory it drains—
or does not drain.
As for cattle raising—a practical
man of Manaos. entirely familiar
with the cattle business, says R
would he criminal to permit any
young man with money and energy
to go and find the grave of both on
the banks of the Amazon. Graves of
young and hustling white-men are
very numerous In the "green val-
ley.” Those who have escaped have
only stories to tell of discourage-
ment, despair, failure and disaster.
These hard facts are commended
to all "before whose dazzled eyes
hangs a glowing tropical vision of a
mighty river flowing through forests
of rosewood and ebony, perfumed
with rare orchids, where luscious
fruits are to to plucked from every
tree and Jeweled humming birds are
hovering over fragrant flowers, and
money rolls In a golden tide like
that, of the huge, stream Itself.” The
reality Is poor food, fevers, stinging
files, gnats, mosquitoes, ants that de-
stroy a whole plantation In a night,
others that render villages and
towns uninhabitable, bad water and
vile customs. These by no means
constitute a paradise.

Former District Attorney Asserts
Devery Maintained Discipline.
Ithaca. May 20.—Former District
Attorney Eugene A. Phllbtn of New
York, In an address tyefore the stu-
dents of Cornell university, made 3
startling aitack on the police admin
Intention of the metropolis under J
Commissioner McAdoo.
He said that even Devery main
tained better discipline among the
force than the present regime.
Ills comments on the "graft:” ques-
tion were even more blunt. So far
from considering that blackmail had
boon soppresaed, Mr. PtiHbin said;
“You will lie more than astonished
when 1 say that there la at present
a general system of graft existing in
the police force of the metropolis.*
'The amount annually paid as
graft friulo ia $1,000,000. I am
aware that in tho Tenderloin pre-
cinct alone It amounts to $20,000 per
month. Gambling houses there pay
$500 a month to run, and other
houses pay $500 to open and $51)
each month to rim.
"I would suggest the abolition of
the police headquarters."
Mr. Phllbln gave w8mt he said is
District Attorney Jerome's theory of
the Nan Patterson case. He said:
“His impression was thitt Nan Pat-
terson was guilty In the first degree.
She was evidently madly In love
with Caesar Young, and a short time
prior to the tragedy almost persuad-
ed him to give up his trip abroad,
but subsequently became convinced
llint lie Intended to leave her. She
grew desperate, got the revolver aud
from the indications look the weap-
on with her in the cab on tho night
of that last fatal ride. Premedita-
tion was established beyond a doubt,
us Mr. Jerome viewed the evidence."

sity each year.
