BURNED TO DEATH
Felt Snyders Charred Body
Found in His Shanty.
ONCE WEALTHY AND GOOD
But His Family Would Not At
His Funeral.

Felt Snyder, the rag picker, was burn
ed to death in the little shanty that serv-
ed him and his family for home, just
south of the Crystal ice plant, West
worked for an hour on the fire and poured
volumes of water upon it, but no one
dreamed at the time that human being
had burned to death and was lying in a
heap on the inside of the shanty. 1t was
not until o'clock that the body of Sny-
der was found, while the fire had been
extinguished and the shanty left in sill
ence at o'clock. The body was discov-
cred at about o'clock by some of the
Iaborers as they were going to their
work at the ice plant. Coroner Nc
Laughlin was notified and held an in
quest The jury rendered a verdict of
accidental burning.
The old rag picker had been left alone
the afternoon before his death, and Mrs.
Snyder went to Mulvane in search of a
young son who is at work there. While
she was gone the old man, who frequent
ly gets under the influence of liquor, pro-
ceeded to get on one of his periodical
DRINKS. He was seen about IL o'clock
by Patrolman Smith, who told him to
go home 1t is supposed that Snyder
did as he was told, and that in an effort
to light the lamp or smoke his pipe among
the rags that he had picked that day, he
accidentally set fire to the house and was
in too great stupor to call alarm.
The body was removed to Dunbar's
undertaking rooms, where it was pre-
pared for burial. 1t was in a terrible
state Of decomposition and could not be
held. Mr.. Dunbar said he notified the
children and brothers of the dead man
about the funeral arrangements, but
none of them called to see after the re-
mains, and none Of them accompanied
it to the grave. 1t was lonely end for

Whitney Lockridge, who will soon be
heard here in concert IS thorough
Christian Scientist and is one Of the few
of that faith who are on the stage today.
1t is to Christian Science that Mr.. Mock
ridge attributes the following remarka-
BILE fact: In the past six years, during
which he has followed that faith, he has
not had a single cold, nor has there been
one evening during the entire time when
he has not been able to sing. This is
a remarkable record, and ane that it is
safe to say cannot be duplicated by any
other singer of the day. Mr.. Mockridge
and a strong company of artists will be
heard at the Crawford theater Tuesday,

CAPT. o'HEILl.s sopv FOUND.
The Rough Riders Body Easily Lo-
Gated by Chaplain Brown.

A special dispatch to the Globe DEM
ocrat says:
.The mystery which has hung over
the location of the grave of Captain
Buckley O'Neill, of the Rough Riders,
was solved through the wonderful
memory of Chaplain Henry A. Crown,
who served with the Rough Riders in
the Santiago campaign. The war de-
partment after making half a dozen
fruitless attempts to locate the grave of
Captain O'Neill, decided to send Chap
lain Brown on that mission. Those
who went with him tell the story Of
how he found the body in less than two
hours. When the boat reached San
tiago, Chaplain Brown, brother of
Captain O'Neill's and some others took
carriage for San Juan hill. The
chaplain directed the movements Of
the driver. He ran his eye over the
surrounding country, and, with I'M
erring judgment. located again the
points in the battlefield where each
movement of his regiment occurred.
At last he turned the carriage into a
side trail by means of which little
clearing vas reached. Chaplain Brown
got out there, cast his eye contem-
platively around the ground for a few
minutes, and said to his comrades:
Dig there and you will find the can
teen which we buried with the body of
Captain O'Neill.'
Sure enough, hardly had the spade
turned up two shovelfuls OF the soil
before rusty and weat her. beaten can
teen came into view. In it were the
papers identifying the body OF Captain
O'Neill, as they had been placed by
Chaplain Brown nearly eight months
before. Further excavation revealed
the body of Captain 'Neill in a good
state of preservation. The body WAS
placed in a coffin and will be brought
to the United States ON the transport
Crook.
