small boys, were arraigned in police
court here Thursday charged with an
attempt to burn Wilbur Thompson, 6
years old, at the stake They con
fessed they were moved to expert
ment on Thompson by moving pic
lures showing man at the stake,
with flames rising around him.
The boys attended a picture show
yesterday afternoon in Sixteenth
avenue, near their homes. The chief
scene was supposed to represent an
Inquisition burning 1t made so deep
an impression upon the boys that they
decided to reproduce it in reality.
They left the show, went to a vacant
lot and for a stake drove an iron pipe
deep into the ground. Then they be-
gan to hunt for victim, and finally
seized young Thompson. He was
dragged to the stake, tied to it hand
and foot, and told he was doomed to
death by burning. He screamed with
such yigor that half dozen men and
several women ran to the spot Hoff
and Quackenbush were so intent on
their preparations that they did not
see policeman until he seized them
by the arms. They had gathered
straw and sticks and seemed ready to
start the fire.
