ARMY CAPTAIN Shoots
C0MRADE and suicides
FEAR OF COURTMARTIAL AND
DISCHARGE FROM SERVICE
CAUSE OF TRAGEDY.

Captain Raibourn Deliberately Walks
over to Quarters of Lieutenant Point
and Fires at Him-TwO Bullets Take
Effect but wounded Man VIII Prob
ably Recover--Captain Had Been
Drinking Heaviiy-Was Under Arrest.
Salt Lake City, April SO.-Captain W.
A. Raibourn. Twenty-ninth infantry, U.
S. A. committed suicide at Fort Doug
las to-day after making a murderous
assault on Lieutenant William H. Point,
also of the Twenty-ninth infantry.
Point was shot twice by his superior
officer, one bullet penetrating the left
thigh and the other infiicting a deep
flesh wound in the right leg. IT.
After Lieutenant Point had fallen
Captain Raibourn turned his revolver
lon himself, sending a bullet into his
head three inches behind the right ear.
He died almost instantly.
Captain Raibourn had been drinking
heavily, and the tragedy was an out
growth of his arrest on Tuesday on a
Icharge of drunkenness.
On Tuesday of last week Captain Raj
bourn was appointed officer of the day
at Fort Douglas, but failed to report for
duty and was absent for twenty-four
hours without leave. He was arrested
the following day, but was given the
privilege of the for under orders not to
leave the grounds.
Saturday evening Captain Raibourn
broke the parole and came to Salt Lake
City. Lieutenant Point, who was sent
after him with an ambulance, found
him in saloon, and the captain was
returned to Fort Douglas under arrest,
and ordered to remain in his quarters.
Lieutenant Points quarters are only
two doors from Captain Raibourn. The
lieutenant had just stepped out Of doors
early to-day when Captain Raibourn
appeared, carrying a revolver. His
manner was threatening, and Point
said:
NOW, captain, don't do anything
foolish
Raibourn Immediately began to shoot.
When other officers and soldiers ran
out Captain Raibourn lay dead and
Lieutenant Point lay in front Of his
quarters. Lieutenant Point is said to be
resting we'll. Raibourn's body will be
shipped tomorrow to Oakland City,
Ind, where his mother and two sisters
live.
\ Captain Raibourn had sought to avoid
court martial, and had forwarded to
washington mis- resignation from the
army. 1t hadsnot been accepted, and
it 1ua q SitnY,ared +hnt a trial 'hy cnlIrt-
martial awaited him. Worry over the
probability of a dishor1orable discharge
from the army Is believed to have un-
balanced his mind. Captain Raibourn,
who was thirty-three years old and un-
married. entered the army In 1891 as a
private. He and Lieutenant Point had
served together in the Philippines and
had been firm friends.
Lieutenant Point entered the army as
captain of the Fffty-first Iowa volun-
teers, and later was appointed to the
regular service.

FLATS MONEY CLASS.
Desire to Throw Bomb Among Them
Comes Over wellesley Professor.

Comes Over wellesley Professor.
Boston, April The temptation Of
the power of evil Is so strong within me
that feel like throwing a bomb into
Commonwealth avenue, among the
homes of the privileged classes whose
apathy and Indifference to the condi-
tion of their fellow beings is contemptu-
Gus, but I overcome this temptation
With these words Miss Vida Dutton
Scudder, associate professor of English
literature at Wellesley college, scored
the upper classes in an address to-day
in Sewall hall, Huntington avenue, in
the Back Bay district, where she was
the principal speaker at a meeting of
the Temple Adath Israel. Her subject
was 1.-THE Religion Of the Social Work
er, and among other things she said:
"The r1oneyed class are blind to the
poor people and their conditions. Many
of these people will tell you that they
know that there are poor to be uplifted
and conditions to be bettered, but they
say so with an Indifference which it
contemptuous. The modern evil of So
ciety is the distinction between classes
and persons. The pursuit of money is
the question which is uppermost to-
day, when churches and societies are
holding cut to the favor Of the wealthy
when we all love each other with a
true spirit of humanity, then will come
the time when we will not be hearing
so much about the pitiful condition of
the poor" a4a..,3

was the trial trip. The party sailed out
|of the harbor from Morris Cove around
the new lighthouse. .1g.-..- g.,
As they started on their return trip
the wind was dead against them and
was blowing quite hard, which neces-
STATED a number of taeks being taken.
The son was at the tilIer, and when the
boat was in the channel between the
old lighthouse and Scanlon's, and as
the young man brought the boat around
on another tack, the sheet line caught
and as the boat righted the wind caught
it full and capsized it.
The three occupants were hurled into
the water and luckily escaped being
drawn under the boat. The boat turn
ed turtle and all three were able to
grab hold of the centerboard and hang
on. a ;s<.
The accident was witnessed by some
students who We're out in another boat,
and they at once put over and rescued
the victims. The capsized boat was
towed to Scanlon's pier and the three
who had been in the water were hur-
|ried to the home of Myron Durham on
Townsend avenue and there taken care
of. Mr.. Durham is a personal friend Of
the victims. He is a member of the
