LOUIS NEWSPAPER WITH THE ASSOCIA TED PRESS|DAY DISPATCHES. — —T—ę᷑—i⸗ VOL, 54, NO. 276, ST. LOUIS, SATURDAY EVENING, MAY 24, 1902. PRICE | Gussie ot testis, Sere Comte HOIR BOY BURNED BY YOUTHFUL HAZERS Boys of St. George's Episcopal Chureh Used Hot Grease to Initiate Compan- ion by Branding Cross on ‘His Stomach. VICTIM WAS DELIR David Skobe!l, 12 years old, son of Mr. and Mre. Ivan Skobel of 3945 Olive street, a choir boy at St. George's Episcopal Church, ie in bed at his home as a result of hazing | by his associates in the choir, the victim of a ‘process of “initiation” which consists ‘im burning a cross on the abdomen. Attorney John A. Hyde has been retained by the boy’s parents in their investigation of the matter. The hazing took place on the church lot, ‘west of the church, at Pendleton avenue and Olive street, last Saturday night about 0-o’tlock, after the rehearsal for the Sun- day services. Investigation of the affair reveals the fact that hazing of this character has been for a long time a regular*practice among the choir boys of St. George's, each new boy being compelled to undergo the ordeal of an “initiation” or be ostracized by his as- sociates. Im other words, he must be branded with @ cross or branded as a coward. Most of the boys, it appears, have accepted the cross. There are 18 boys in the choir, but only about half of them were engaged in the *initiation’’ of David Skobel. Among the boys who took part in the branding are Frank Breem, 43 Finney avehue; Eugene Dougherty, 1216 Benton street; Joseph Rose, 1127 Tyler street; Hall Mancock, 9968 Evans avenue; Frank Devoi, 9057 Maffitt avenue; Henry Loeher, 616 North Garrison avenue, and Frank and Paul Allen, 230 South Newstead avenue. BOY BADLY BLISTERED. George Dreese of 4400 Maryland avenue, aged about 16, the oldest boy in the choir, is said by Attorney Hyde to be the leader of the hazing force, t Dreese was not a party to the “initiation” of David Skobel, his grandmother happening to call for him at the church just before the boys carried otu their plans, which was prearranged. The Skobel boy, as a result of the hazing, has a number of ugly blisters on his ab- ~ domen, from the belt line to the thighs. He was infured otherwise, and his parents say that for two or three days he was deliri- hight, ” tr t tear of boys! He would jump from his bed. they say, pick up a dumbbell which was in the room, and cry: „Don't, boys! You hurt me! now!" The blisters were made, it ie stated by the Skebel boy and admitted by the others, with dripped grease from a lighted can- die. The boy says that his tormentors, after binding his arms and biindfolding him, dropped the hot grease upon his ab- domen, spat upon the grease and then ap- plied the flame of the candle to make the «rease burn. The attorney believes, however, that the flame was not applied to the grease, but that the boys dropped the candle, acci- dentally, in their enthusiasm,for the in- itiation,”’ and this caused the more seri- ous blistering. David Skobel, lying in bed, told the Post- Dispatch Saturday morning the following account of the hazing: „was told during choir rehearsal last Let me go ’ Baturday night that I was to be initiated that night. I was nervous and began to ery. After rehearsal was over we all went out on the steps of the church, and Prof Mori was there with us. Before he left the boys said they were going to initiate ime, and he heard them. He said to me, ‘Don’t be afraid, Davy; they won't hurt you much.” Then he took the car and went home. HE WAS BLINDFOLDED. “The boys tied my arms and blindfolded me. They made me step up aad down the terrace, telling me I was going up hill When I was ging the other way, and I fell. “Then they took me around behind the church on the west side. One of the boys in. “Whes got a nickel: Someone took ut a nicked and Joe Rose and Eugene Deugherty went to a grocery stare and bought three candies. I think it was one of the Allen boys got some matches. “The boys threw me down and removed part of my clothes. They burned me with the grease, spit on the places and touched the fame to them. I cried. and, after Awhile, they let up and untied me. I was eo badly burt that I could hardly walk Dome I got home about 11 o'clock.”’ The boy parents say that when he ar- rived home he was terribly frightened and apparentiy in great pain. They did not call fm a physician, Mrs. Skobel herself being A Skok in medicine. obel says the blistered parts were swollen for two or three days and W much pain. . Bkobe! sent word to Prof. Mori Sun- — 2 ing ot the incident. Prof. Mori, * 41%6 Odell avenve, alle i at hie regret that the been infu ed and made him acquainted w:th Mr. Hyde immediately went e home and saw the bey. He on Attorney Hyde dur- | = IOUS THREE NIGHTS Rev. Dr. R. eorge’s chur.h s and expre sed then communicated with Holland, rector of at who called on the Skobe Als regret over the affair. Dor. Holland also sent his zen, who is a physician, to see the boy, but Mrs. Skobe! deelined to permit the latter to see David, saying that she was able to treat him properly. TRIED TO SHIFT BLAME. “Later in the day,“ said Attorney Hyde, “I gathered up the boys who were con- cerned in the affair and took them, with Prof. Mori, to see David Skobel. The other boys tried to lay the blame for the burning on the Allen lads, but I found by investiga- tion that Frank Allen, who is 12 years old, remonstrated when he saw that the thing was going too far and called his brother Paul, 10 years old, away. The Allen boys left the spot before the worst part of the work was done. “From Skobel's story and what the others have admitted [ learn that at a certain part of the ees > one of the boys, whose name 1 have, called out, ‘Now make the cross,’ and little Paul Allen was told to hold the victim's feet. But Frank Allen then called his brother away. Eugene Dougherty and Joe Rose bought the candles at a grocery store at Boyle avenue and Olive street. The boy, George Dreese, I understand, was the lead- er of the hazers and had planned the affair. but after his grandmother took him home, the leadership was assumed by Frank Breem, who removed the boy's clothes 80 that the cross could be made. Breem also neld the candle. The boy handling the lighted candle appears to ve dropped it on Skobel's body.” Mrs. Brady, mother of the two Allen boys, was seen at her home Saturday morning. She remarked that Prof. Mori had been to see her and had cautioned her not to talk to newspaper men under any circumstances. Mrs. Brady said that her two boys had frankly admitted the part they took in the affair, saying that * ys not hurt Skobel and had no intention to do go. WAS COMMON PRAOTICE. “It seems to be a practice among the choir boys of St. George's, said Mrs. Brady, “to initiate new members. Both my boys were initiated, and they seemed to be rather proud of it. They were initi- ated last October, I think. “I knew nothing about it until one day 1. was washi rank and he told me not to — 5 his ae it hurt: I asked him .

Hé said they sropped the melted grease on his back. It left ar mark, which 1 ticed when I removed his garments. “I found that Paul had been initiated by putting a similar mark on his abdomen. Neither of the boys suffered any ill effects from the branding. “Frank said that all the boys had to be initiated, and if they cried it showed that they were cowards. It was a sign of man- Iiness in the choir if a boy could submit to the burning without whimpering.”’ Mrs. Brady said she did not believe anv of the boys were old enough to appreciate the fact that the burning might result seri- ously Thev appeared, she said, to be imi- tating the West Pointers and the collegiates whocshaze students. Until a choir boy was Inittated'“ he was not of the elect. ac- — to the view held by the older mem- Er. In Mrs. Brady’s opinion, gained from what her boys told her, the larger boys in the choir are leaders in the ‘“‘initiation’’ process. As they quit the chcir, when their voices change, they leave the leadership as a legacy to the next oldest who remains. DR.

LORD PAUNCEFOTE. « WASHINGTON, May 2%4.—Lord Paunce- fote, the British ambassador to the United States, died at the embassy this morning at 6:4 o'clock. The improvement which had been noted in his condition during fhe past week re- ceived a sudden check about 6 o'clock last evening, when it was noticed that he was experiencing difficulty in breathing. Dr. Jung; his physician, was immediately sent for, and he decided on a consultation with a local physician, in the meantime telegraphing for Dr. Osler of Baltimore. In his stead came Dr. Thayer of Johns Hopkins. University. Arriving about 2 o'clock this morning. The patient's pulse was still good, and, when Dr. Thayer left the embassy at 3 o'clock for Baltimore, the ambassador was resting so comfortably that a cablie- gram was sent to his son-in-law, Mr. Brom- ley, in London, that there was no immedi- ate danger. Soon after 3 o'clock a distinct weakness of the heart developed and the pulse began t collapse. Lord Pauncefote died so peacefully that It surpriséd even his physician, wh» feared that the asthmatic affection would prove troublesome when the end came. At the bedside when the disti ished diplomat passed away were Mrs. Paunce- fote, the Hon. Maude Pauncefote, Mies Sibyl and Miss Audrey Pauncefcte, Dr. Jung and Mr. Radford, one of the clerks at- toched to the embassy. No arrangements have been made for the funeral. WM.

Johnson gave Hansen no intimation that he intended to kill himself and left no note explaining his reason for desiring to dle. He was agitated Friday over a business matter, but Hansen does not think he could have worried over it sufficiently to wish to end his existence. Hansen's theory is that Johnson brooded over his desertion April 1 by his young and pretty wife, who was only 19 when he mar- ried her two years ago in Philadelphia. The business matter that agitated Johnson Friday was the action of the persons whom he succeeded in the tenancy of 616 Leonard avenue in removing certain sheets, pillow cases and bed clothing which he understood to be included in his bill of sale.

Lorenz Ewanchik, who is opposed to over- time work in eases where his slumber is disturbed by it, was fined $5 by Judge Wis- lizenus Saturday for demolishing with a hatchet a button machine owned by Max }Obliz, a clothing maker who lives on the floor below him at 900 Morgan street. Ewanchik heard the button machine at work when he went to bed Friday night but lay down in the hope that the noise would soon cease, or that he would be able to sleep in spite of it.

W cents MISS BATES AND PUPILS: Pleasing Entertainment at Which a Child Violinist Was a Feature. 8 ——ů—ů—— J—v—— The closing entertainment by Miss F. A. Bates pupils was given at the Century Theater last evening and was a most suc- cessful affair. The little dancers were seen t their best and gave a most unique en- kern. The only musical feature was violin playing by little Senta Retter, the 6- — daughter of Louis Ritter of 4248 astieman avenue. Her selections were the Meserere from II Trovatore, and for an encore an arrangement of the Anvil Chorus.” which she played in a wonderful- ly brilllant manner. "Little Miss Retter first played in public when but 4 years old, when she played for the D. O. Cin rendering an arrangement of Sextel, from Lucia. She has also appeared at many musical club enter .ain- ments. She plays any ordinary piece of violin music at sight. At her first concert she used a quarter-sized instrument, a tiny affair, imported from Europe. Quality is what makes price.

After hearing a part of the testimony, Judge Van Sellers took the case from the jury's hands and dismissed the jurymen, saying that the charge against the prisoner had no foundation. The testimony which the court held of no value related to the ownership of a rifie found in the Illinois river, 160 rds from — spot where the body of Corcoran was ound. The prosecution considered this the strongest 8 of its testimony, and had endeavored to show, by the statement of the maker of the gun in New York and by the — firm through whose hands it had passed, that it had en sold to New- n man. The gun was found sticking in the soft mud, with the muggle down. It had been concealed by high water, but when the level of the river lowered the butt of the weapon became visible. A pecullar feature of the case was the disappearance of the stranger who discov- ered the gun. William Cawthorn of 1615 Franklin ave- nue. St. Louls, who was in Pike County a few days ago, says that great interest is taken in the case, and that the signers of the call for the meeting on June 5 are among the best known citizens of Griggs- ville. Newman bore an excellent reputation," said Mr. Cawthorn. The only motive ever suggested by the prosecution was a quar- Ne between him and Corcoran over a line ence. The signers of the call for the meeting at Griggsville are C. G. Winn. Dr. W. O. Skinner, George Harrington, D. A. Fagin, Jr., and James Anthony.

The governor of Martinique has cabled his government at Paris Sdvising sgainst the evacuation of the island, either partial or total. The council, he says, is “unanimous in declaring. that suth a moasure is not justifiable at present.“ However that may be, late reports indicate a continuation of Volcanic activity and panic terror prevails among the inhab- itants. The entire Caribbean region is involved and the de- struction of Martinique is predicted by geologists. In view of the awful fate of St. Pierre and the imminent peril threatening the rest of the island, would it not be wise and hu- Mane to carry the people to Porto Rico? Our government has aiready borne the heaviest burden of relief and is most active im rescue work. Cannot France and the United States furnish transports immediately to remove every man, woman and child from the place of death? When the volcane subsides, as it must when the flery substances pressing upward have been thrown out, those who wish to return may do so, and France can make provision for those who pre- fer a safer home. The proposal is not fantastic or Quixotic, but the plain indica- tion of common sense and humanity. If the new republic of Cuba is to release imprisoned American Criminals it is to be hoped she will induce them to remain with her while they have their freedom. They might want to return to the United States. »- > sm @ gg SYNDICATE THE PROPHET. Mr. C. E. Thomas of Paris, Tex., has set up in the prophecy Dusinese and seems to be prospering mightily. He foretold Mr. McKinley's first and second elections, the Span- ish war and the assassination. Besides these capital events he gave out anterior information of the St. Louls cyclone, the Chi- ago labor riot and the battle of Manila. Mr. Thomas’ latest fiver in long-range knowledge is that Al- fonse XIII of Spain is destined to become the greatest monarch the world ever saw. He will conquer France, Portugal, Austria and Italy and William's emvire will be blotted out. A man with a gift like this can become a benefactor.

A notice to him that there will be no rine, but a fall, will enable him to shape his in short, with Thomas in the public service, what shall be won't be, unless it ts agreeable. This suggests the pertinent inquiry why Mr. Thomas has not employed Mr. Morgan to syndicate him? All other good things de being merged. Why not the gift of prophecy? i i Though burdened with royalty, Spain has been relieved of the a ” terrible load of the Philippines. She ought to be patient until relief can be made complete.

THE INSURANCE CRISIS. It seems to he agreed among the local business men and insur- ance experts that the crisis in the insurance situation in St. Louls is due to two causes—hostile legislation and excessive fire losses. These two causes are not In any way connected. They work separately. A distinct remedy must be applied to each. The question of dealing with excessive fire losses is purely local, It relates to the personnel and equipment of the fire de- partment, the methods of building and fire inspection. There ought to be a searching inquiry into all of these matters. The fire departmen* should be brought to a high state of effi- clency. The building ordinances should be strictly enforced and all buildings subjected to effective inspection. 8 This is work for the municipa] administration and it should be attended to at once. : The state legislature must take up the question of insurance legislation. The law should be fair, ggnsidering all the conditions of the insurance bysiness. Laws that drive insurance companies out of the state, or that make it difficult for them to do business in the state, strike not only at the insurance companies, but at all citizons of the state. The law should be equitable and fairly administered. But our municipal administration should go to work to reduce fire losses. Let us have the best possible protection from fires. The Chicago woman's club that has forbidden war books for children has done well, though thoy have made life a little dull for the boys who delight to read of battles and look at battle pictures. Why do we have so many bloody-minded infants? A MISSIONARY RELIGION, The Salt Lake Herald declares that 100 converts to Mormonism were baptized in Ohio in 191, over 200 in Pennsylvania, and over 1306 in the southern states. This does not look like progress. And an interesting fact is that Mormons are never reconverted to their old faith or lack of faith. Once a Mormon always a Mormon. ! In 1870 Utah contained 88,374 inhabitants, of whom 80,000 were Mormons. In 1890 the population was 276,740, 220,000 being Mor- mons. There are now more than 300,000 adherents of the strange faith in the United States. As a missionary religion Mormonism is worth studying. What- ever may be its vices, it certainly has the virtue of pushing, ag- gressive life. = = A London scientist partly relieves the world with a statement that the tangential positions of the sun and moon on last Thurs- day caused the blowing up of Pelee. He finds that the sun and moon also caused the Galveston disaster. The explanation of a great calamity is as necéssary as is the arrival of a policeman after a house has been robbed and the burglar has disappeared. The Martinique people ought to have been signaled from Lon- don. W The Danes have another reason for getting rid of their three lava piles in the West Indies. But the question is beyond them now. The people of the islands must choose whether they will sink into Tophet under the Danish flag or beneath the folds of the star-spangled banner. 2 — The atrocities testified by officers and soldiers are spoken of in political organs as alleged cruelties.”” It is greatly to be re- gretted if our officers and soldiers have not been telling the truth. Certainly the Filipinos have not been allowed to testify. Farmer John Duncan of Kentucky finds something to place to the credit of the troublesome English sparrow. It has an intense hatred of the “17-year locusts’ and attacks and pulls them to pieces whenever it sees them. Thomas B. Reed is said to be making a good deal of money in the law, and perhaps he has no time to further express his “copperhead” sentiments in regard to our Philippine mess. Naturally John Bull thinks we are only pretending to give Cuba her independence. He knows what he would do himself if Cuba were as near to him as she is to us. The ancient Kings of England mounted war horses. King Ed- ward mounts an automobile and makes much better time and has a better time. True loyalty is well expressed in Herbert Spencer's latest writ- ing. To denounce such a man as a traitor is supremely absurd. POST-DISPATCA SNAP SHOTS The government prophet's unrained rains would make a great river. In 194 the banner of France will once more float over the River des Peres. What a changed man grand old Albert Pike would have been with a lawn-mower haircut. It seems that as much gambling is going on in Havana as in cities of the United States. The Massachusetts fighter who has just been killed in a con- test’ with a negro pugilist seems to have had no prejudices. Exorbitant prices for coal may develop a tornadic blast in the United States that will asphyxiate more thar one great com- bination. Admiral Dewey says his men drank no liquor on the day of the hattlo of Manila.

A COMMON COMPLAINT. When May begins to heat the blood, Almost before you know it, You chew the sentimental cud, Because you can't outgrow it. And drowsy languor comes apace, Upon you softly stealing, And presently you have a case Of summer garden feeling. You talk about the tired“ kind, Which 80 enslaves the body And makes a booby of the mind, And leaves you dull and noddy— That isn't in it with the sort That makes you even dumber— In fact, which strikes you all amort And keeps you so all summer. You want to lie around at ease And toy with cooling ices, And fling your worries to the breeze, And dream of balm and spices, As long as it is piping hot And pain is past concealing. No man can labor when he's got The summer garden feeling. Overworking Enoch Arden. When a married man goes away from home and remains for 32 years, leaving his wife to her own resources, and then has the temerity to return—as did a Kentuck- lan the other day—to disturb her in her old age, after she is married again, somebody ought to lead him quietly to the mossy banks of some peaceful river and push him in gently—oh, so gently—that not a single splash would be heard. These old guys always come back as they left—empty handed. They had no excuse for leaving, none for returning. They never write to inquire if the members of their family are living, or whether ma needs any money or Mary Ann a new frock for Sunday, because, they say, they presume they are all dead. When they come back and find Willie a big man with whiskers keeping a livery stable, and Sallie the wife of a hardware dealer with money in the bank, and a strange man sitting at the head of ma's ta- ble, these old has-beens wonder why they are given the frosty mitt and a tacit com- mand to move on. A man who neglects his wife for one year or 10 years, or who absents himself from home for a considerable length of time without prior notice, has no rights which his wife or the public are bound to respecot. Raus mit eim!“ The Enoch Amen business has been pain- fully overdone in this country in recent years. — — That Expresses It. If vou are angry at a man, Don't cuss a lurid streak To show him he is under ban, But tell him, strongly as you can, To go to Martinique. There are 20 additional money order sta- tions in the city; but from whom shall we order it? Mr. Marconi probably does not think much of Dan Cupid as a wireless teleg- rapher. GOVERNMENT MONOPOLIES. Russia started in trade at the close of the Crimean war. Money was scarce, so the government, noticing that people were mak- ing a lot of money by selling the old iron picked up on the battlefields and in Sebas- topol, decided to act as auctioneer. Officials were appointed as mediums between the venders and purchasers, and. for their ser- vices in this capacity exacted 12 cents from both parties on every hundredweight of metal sold. This brought Russia $75,000 by the time all the old iron was bought up. Spain goes in for trade whenever her finances want attending to. Two years prior to the outbreak of the war with America she decided to turn an honest penny by linen and plate marking. Ac- cordingly an act was passed making it com- pulsory for everybody whose income ex- ceeded a certain sum to have their linen and plate properly marked, with an alter- native of a $100 fine for breaking the law. The government did all the marking and earned $7,500,000 before pealed a year later. Eighteen months pasend and then Spain decided to take up bookbinding. The gov- ernment made it imperative for all new books to be bound by the state, and super- vised every bookbinding business in the country. Another law cumpelled the owners of all mules born within a certain period to take the animals to government offictais for branding at a charge of $1 a head, and these two businesses brought versatile Spain in several millions. Italy and France have both made a good thing out of their businesses as the nation- al tobacconists. Italy pockets a profit of 40.000, 00 a year in this manner and France 75,000,000, with an additional million from the sale of matches. The Italian government also clears 38. 000,000 a year by the state lotteries, retains a monopoly of all the flags used in the country, and makes a handsome profit by the sale of snow from her mountains, which is brought down in baskets by night and sold for refriegrating purposes. Greece has tried many ways of making money of late, but none of them is very successful. The government makes and sells all of the playing cards used in the country, and also retalls a Üttle bronze badge which finds a ready sale at 25 cents as the national emblem. These two mo- nopolies produce $2,500,000 a year. weden goes in for barking, and conducts a state bank, which is responsible for a revenue of $750,000 per annum. It is rather surprising that Austria should choose the ' uncongenial occupation of sweeping chimneys in order to raise the lacking millions, but such is the case. Some time ago the government announced that every chimney must be swept once a month, and the government would do it for a fee of 45 cents per chimney. All the chimney sweeps in the country were pressed into the verment service, for no competition was allowed, and Austria man- aged to accumulate $4,000,000 a year in this manner, in addition to fines of $50 which the law was re- The Mont — 8 at Paris is the national — whieh may elephant—both may be ment! have figu pl before now—and he rate , from of which, money ‘ie lont at interest. 7 * 7 Bk 2 r — — sae Ae 1 | 5 r pen * 1 rr * * 2 . ; j y 5 * 72 : ‘Cy 1 e oT | SS Clee | : = ‘ n aa + i f 2. ing nal, A but "Tis He e — Mrs. Avoirdupois (to small man who is hurrying): needn’t think you can push me because I haven't an escort. 2 Stop pushing me, sir.

THE TESTING OF FATHER. When faint the city whistles blow, And milk carts rumble to and fro; When the glad sunbeams newly fling Abroad their promises of spring, Then father to the garden goes And rakes find digs and plants and hoes; When he has placed beneath the loam About his glad suburban home Lettuce and beans and tralling vine, And proudly says: And joyous hears the breakfast bell, And feels his bosom proudly swell, What sounds portentous on the breeze Cause his slow curdling blood to freeze? There, cackling singly or together, With feet steel shod and lungs of leather, The neighbors’ soul-destroying jens Have flown their fragile makeshift pens! The big white rooster proudly leads! The air is full of garden seeds! The old hen lifts with rapid scoops Earth, stumps, sod, gravel, and the roots That pa has planted with such care And left to grow in comfort there. “All this is mine,“ nothing but abounding grace That holdeth father in his place. Instead of clubbing every hen plants the garden once again. And ma says, with expression sage, r father’s mellerin’ with age.“ —Minneapolis Journal.
