HISTORIC SPANISH PALACE IN
TEXAS TO BE RAZED.
tan Antonio Structure to Be Replaced
by a Modern Ten-Story Office
Building—Was the Home of
Spanish Governo^.
After having been in sittfTsiwce 1735
he stone and mortar of the Verataendl
jalace will be used in' the construe
ion of a modern ten-story office build
ng, a New York Herald's San Antonio
:orrespondent says. Instead of hear
cg the gasconades of Spanish con
luistadores and the dolce voices of
jenoritas they will hereafter listen to
he click of typewriters and the giggles
)f those who work them. No more
will they look upon proud Dons from
:ar Hispano, armed cap-a-pie and in
3ased in helmet, visor, doublet and
:uirass, for hereafter twentieth cen
:ury business men with green ties,
jink socks, pigeon-toed shoes and pad
led garments will be the only coiupaiv
ens. Before the stones get that far,
lowever, they will be put through the
I nill and made of the size used in eon
:rete construction. They are lime
stone, of excellent quality and well
idapted for their future mission.
Mr. With tho Veramendi palace passes
j3ue of tlie best known architectural
ains of S
&
»™ish American civtiha-
:ion. It was erected almost simulta
neously v.iili the Mission San Antonio
ie Valero, now the Alamo, and for
many years was the white house of
:he Spanish province of Bexar, a ter
ritory comprising all of Texas. In
those days, however, It was merely
known as the governor's house, a de
scription more suitable than Vera
aiendi palace. The latter name is
received because of its occupancy by
:he last Mexican governor of Texas.
The building stood in Soledad street,
its site marking formerly the north
sastern corner of a large public
square, the center of which was occu
pied by the Flaza des Armas of San
Fernando Presidio. In its rear was a
big garden, which extended to the
banks of the San Antonio river, the
whole house and garden being at one
time surrounded with a very strong
palisade and deep ditches. It was no
uncommon thing to have the Indians
make raids right in the city in those
iays and for that reason defenses of
•hat kind were necessary.
The old building was the scene of
many a romance of love and murder.
Almost In its shadows a Mexican gen
eral caused to be butchered like pigs
a number of Spanish and other pris
oners, who had been unfortunate
enough to side with the Spanish gov
ernment during the Mexican revolu
tion. The description of this scene,
picturing the assassin as he whetted
the knife on the soles of his shoes
every time he had slit the throat of a
prisoner,- forms one of the most stir
ring chapters in Texas history. In
the Veramendi palace Ben Milam met
his end at the assassin's hand, and in
it3 patio and the shaded walks of Its
gardens James Bowie, designer of the
famous knife bearing his name, court
ad and won Ursula Veramendi, said
to have been by far the prettiest wom
an in Texas.
All that remains intact of the fa
mous old structure now are a pair of
old cedar doors which had swung on
their hinges sines 1735. They are
elaborately carved and unusually well
preserved. For some time to coma
they, will swing in a private residence
in this city, but it is hoped to put
them in some museum in the near fu
ture.
Dogs as Draft Animals.
It is curious that though the Anglo
Saxons are a dog-loving people, we do
not use our dogs for draft purposes.
In the last century, as we have re
corded, the oldest postmaster used
dogs to draw the cart. And nowadays
the seaside knows the goat that draws
the baby chaise. But the dog, for
some obscure reason, Is ruled out of
such service. Not that we neglect
his service in hunting, as a watchman
or as a detective. -But he is no longer
asked to drag a barrow as he Is In
France, Belgium and Germany.
Yet so soon as an arctic expedition
Is planned the dog is called in to pull
the sledge, says the London Graphic.
And you may notice the curious dif
ference between the northern dog
(with the touch of the wolf still evi
dent) and the cultured dog of the
London drawing room. Take the pug
out on a chain and he hangs back.
But put a chow-chow on a chain and
he pulls violently forward. His in
stinct is to work against the collar.
It Is still something of a mystery why
the dog is not permitted to work for
his living between the shafts in Eng
land.
The "Dean For-Gott."
When the bishop of Truro, Doctor
Gott, was dean of Worcester, bis ab
sentmindedness was so notorious that
he earned for himself the sobriquet
of "Dean For-Gott" On one occasion
he had Invited some friends to dine
with blm on their arrival a abort
time before the dinner hour he sug
gested that In the Interval of waiting
his friends would perhaps like to walk
through the grounds. After spending
about a quarter of an hour In admir
ing the flowers, shrubs and green
houses, they suddenly came upon a
door In the garden wall. "Ah!" ssld
