Initiatory Proceedings at Frisco Which
Seem Bit Brutal.

San Francisco. Dee. 27.-Senti.ncnt
has been arouse against the Iractioee
of the High School fraternity as a re-
suit of an initiation in which several
boys were branded with hot irons
shaved about the head and marked
with paint and indelible ink.
The ceremonies were conducted by
the members of one of the most prom
inent chapters of the Mission High
school The victim of their goat"
though ill in bed, is true to his fellows
and refuses to divulge the names of
the students who participated in his
mistreatment. .,-
Albert Short is the student who was
particularly abused. He reached home
about midnight after his official en-
trance into the weird organization and
went Immediately to bed. He was
soon taken violently ill and when his
mother reached his bedside she per-
ceived to what indignities he had been
subjected.
Strange scrolls had been burned into
the flesh of his abdomen, his head was
shorn of it's hair, bruise on the back
bore evidence of contact with "a club
and red paint upon his body gave him
the appearance of an Apache. The
matter has been referred to the school
authorities.

GEN. MACARTHUR
Returns from a Trip to the

Refuses to Discuss Far Eastern or

Was Wonderfully Impressed with
Wealth Of the Islands.

San Francisco, Dec. 27.-Gen. Mac
Arthur returned today, on the steam
er Siberia from the Hawaiian Islands,
where he has been making a military
inspection. One of Gen. MacArthur's
first questions was for news concern
ing the Japanese-Russian controversy
and he listened intently to the informal
ton given him. He was then asked:
rs it true, general, that your visit
to the islands was cut short by the
probability of war over Panama."
The general considered the question
a moment and said:
well, I'm here
His attention was directed to the re-
recent activity displayed in the trans
port service and he remarked:
Il have not been notified about the
Transports
Then the interviewer brought up the
subject of the report of Col. Jones of
the Hawaiian militia, who quoted Gen.
Macarthur as saying that war would
come between the United States and
Germany and that the principal fight
ing would be i'll the Pacific with the
Hawaiian Islands the objective point
Gen. Macarthur said:
THAT is q matter that | will discuss

In relation to his trip the general
said:

GANG OF BURGLARS
Run Down by New York Officers
Much Plumber Recovered.

New York, Dec. 27.-By the arrest Of
one white man and two negro women,
Saturday, the detectives of the central
office believe they have broken up
an extensive and systematically organ
lied plan to rob wealthy houses in va
/, rious parts of the city, which had al
ready been carried to an extraordinary
degree of success.
Joseph Bernstein, alias Williams, 26
years old, and Annie Williams, alias
Ward, and Frances Williams, her sis
tetr, both negroes were the persons
arrested. In their rooms at 201 East
97th street Were found trunks filled
with jewelry, clothing and other arti-
Giles to the value of $4,000 Pawn tick
cts for other valuable articles were al
so found, and it Is believed that when
a full investigation has been made the
amount involved will reach higher fig
ures.
Police headquarters in Mulberry
street were crowded, Saturday after
noon, with fashionable and wealthy
women. who went there to identify the
prisoners and seek articles which had
been stolen from their respective homes.
A Mrs. DAILY alone reported the loss
of jewelry worth $4,000, including a pair
OF diamond earrings valued at $500
and Il diamond and ruby bracelet val
ucd at $500, both of which have not
yet been found. Articles Of wearing
apparel were identified as her hus-
bands property. Bernstein was wear
ing one of the shirts when arrested.
According to the detectives, the
women did the actual stealing by OBJ
tanning employment in the houses, and
then turned the goods over to Bern
stein, who disposed of them.
The plan was to have one of the
women work at a place for week or
two, and then suddenly leave, carrying
off whatever valuables she could OBJ
tain. Then she would be promptly sue
ceeded in the place by her sister, the
employer heing ignorant of the rela-
tionship. This was done at the Daily
house. To facilitate their scheme and
avert suspicion. both women wore wigs
to disguise themselves and these were
found.
When arrested Bernstein said he was
employed as a waiter. The detectives
sag they have information that some
time ago he stored a quantity of goods
| in a worehouse, using the name of
fIurston. They add that in April last
he married at Rockaway, the daughter
of a well-known bandmaster.
At a preliminary hearing in court,
the prisoners were sent to Jail in de-
fault of $4,000 bail each.

A ROYAL QUARREL.
Edward and Alexandra Again Disagree
Over Miss MurieI Wilson.

London, Dec 27.-The King and
Queen have quarrelled because the
name of the beautiful Muriel Wilson
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Kenneth
Wilson of baccarat memory, was on the
list of guests submitted by the Duke OF
Devonshire, who was to have enter
tanned Their Majesties at Chatsworth
during the coming week.
This is not the rst time that King
Edward and Queen Alexandra have
quarrelled over the fair Miss Muriel
Wilson. But this time the quarrel has
gone to the extent of causing the Queen
to suddenly order a special train to
take her back to Sandringham and the
engagement with the Duke of Devon
shire was cancelled. The King was left
in bachelor solitude at Buckingham
Palace.
All the next day there was telephon-
ing and telegraphing between Sand
bingham and Buckingham Palace. But
the angry lady had her way, and, in
stead of going down to Chatsworth for
the holidays, the King went to Sand
bingham and joined his wife.
1t is remembered that Miss Wilson
was the undeniable cause of a similar
friction, early last summer, when an
other visit to Chatsworth was aban-
doned and when. also, Miss Wilson
name was in the list. The alleged
cause for the first abandonment of the
Chatsworth visit was a chill which it
was said the King had caught.
1t was rather a warmth of feeling
than a chill. and it is scarcely probable
that the Duke of Devonshire, after that
experience, would have incurred the
Queens wrath by again including Miss
Wilson among those invited. But
oourtiers contended that Miss Wilson's
name did appear among these who were
to take part in the Chatsworth amateur
theatricals.
However, SO far as outsiders are able
to Judge, the royal couple We're recon-
ciled by Christmas eve, the family
gathering at Sandringham was unusu-
ally jovial, the King personally super
intended the holiday festivities and
everybody is happy.

THREE MEN DROWNED.
Slated in Air Hole on Half Way River
Lake, Near Parrsboro, N. S.

Halifax, n. s.. Dec. 27.--The worst
drowning accident that ever took place
in Cumberland county happened at
Half Way River lake, eight miles from
Parrsboro, yesterday afternoon, and as
the result the cruel waters of the lake
claimed as its victims Beverley Robin
son. his son, Clifford Robinson, aged
1G. and James Locllhart, aged 80.
The two last victims together with
y younger brother of Robinson's We're
skating on the lake near the inlet.
Lockhart. without bit Of warming
skated into an air hole, disappeared
and was never seen alive again.
Robinson, who was close behind, but
who is supposed to have" slackened his
speed on seeing Lockhart going, but
not enough to stop himself. also went
in. but was fortunate enough to catch
the edge OF the ice and hold on.
The younger brother of Robinson
who was far enough behind to save
himself from going in, ran back as fast
as he could to the Melville Cos. store
and gave the alarm, as as fast as they
could get there a number of people
were on the spot, among them Beverley
Robinson. father of the boy who was
still holding onto the ice In coming
along the men had hastily grabbed Il
board and this was showed out, but
the boy was so far gone that he would
not let go of the ice TO grasp it. AS q
last resort the board was showed out
over the hole and the father started
to reach the boy. Just as he was about
to take hold of him the board broke
and father and son disappeared under
the ice never to be seen alive again.
Beverley Robinson was 40 years old
and d widow and six young children
survive him. The bodies were recov-
cred, this afternoon.
