FAMILY MURDERED
and HOUSE FIRED
Gambler and Ex=COnvict Is Ac=
cused of Staying Farmer,
Wife and Two Children 4

MARYvILLE, Mo-. Nov. 2f.-Oda
Hubbell, farmer living near Barnard,
Mo, and his wife and two children
were shot and killed at their home last
night. The murderer set fire to their
house to conceal the crime
A neighbor recalled having heard
Hubbell say that gambler from whom
he had won money threatened to kill
him, and Ezra Roscoe of Barnard was
arrested, as Hubbeu had won a large
amount of money from him in a card
game
Roscoe was taken to ST Joseph this
evening from Maryvflle for fear of mob
violence. He was secretly taken from
the Maryville Jail and spirited to ST.
Joseph in an automobile. Bloodhounds,
which were taken to the scene of the
Quadruple murder. followed a trail to
Roscoe's home and entered his room,
where some of his garments were
found with bloodstains on them.
Roscoe recently completed serving
a 10 year sentence for killing a farm
er's wife after attempting to assault
her.
Hubbel and his wife were each so
years old and the children killed were
Jessie, a girl, and Welton, a boy, aged
6 and 4 respectively. This constituted
the entire family.
The charred remains of the two chill
dren were found in bed in their room,
where it was evident they had been
killed while sleeping. Hubbelrs body
was found lying on the floor of an
other room and his wife's body on her
bed. where she probably had been shot
without warning.
The murderer had poured great guam
titles of kerosene over the bodies of
his victims, and when the neighbors
arrived they found the bodies burning
more fiercely than any of the materials
of the house.

TEMPERANCE FAVORED
BY EMPEROR WILLIAM
Says Wars Will Be Won by the
People Who Use Least Alcohol

FLEMSBURG, Prussia, Nov. 21.-In
opening the new naval academy at
Muerwick, Emperor William read an
address laying stress on the qualifica-
tions necessary to naval officers. Later,
speaking extemporaneously, he made a
plea for temperance on the part of the
cadets. The times, the emperor said
required iron hearted men. Character
was the first essential, and character
was founded on strong moral and re-
ligious convictions.
In his temperance talk the emperor
cautioned the cadets against excessive
drinking. He counseled total absti-
nence, suggesting that the young men
join the Good Templars, and added that
the nation which in the future con-
sumed the smallest amount of alcohol
would march at the head of the column
on the fields of art and war.

Basket Ball Season on
At Oakland High

OAKLAND, Nov. 21.-The interclass
basket ball games which are always
preliminary to the regular spring train
ing in Oakland high school were insti-
tuted this afternoon in the school gym
nasium, when the four class teams
clashed.
The freshmen lost to the juniors by
score of % to 34 in the first game.
The second was captured by the seniors
from the sophomores by score of So
to II.
Holden, Hamlin and Houghton fea-
tured with their goal throwing in the
last few minutes rush of the seniors.
Albright and Curley, the guards for
the same team, were very reliable when
placed on the defensive.
Rhea Taylor, the sophomore captain,
was about the only member of the sec
ond year team able to find the basket,
his efforts resulting in nine OF the II
points. Gonzales and Geinbol displayed
gameness.
The first game was rather quiet, with
the juniors showing the better class
from the start. Although the fresh
men scored the majority of their points
in the second half the juniors easily
maintained a safe lead. Wurts was the
most conspicuous freshman player.
while three fellows who showed up
well on the junior team were Mauerer,
Eldridge and Whittier.
Next Monday afternoon the tourna :
ment will be resumed with the seniors
playing the freshmen and the juniors
taking on the sophomores.

A beginning though a humble one, in the direction of better 1nder- standing of the theater by local church people was made when 2 care ful and evidently dispaasionate inyes- tigation was made by committee a9- pointed by religious organization for that purpose, says the Kansas City Journal This investigation n itself was net sufficient to arrive at any really valuable conclusion as to the merits of the theater as an institu- ton, but the general spirit of fair
 ness displayed WAS particularly com mendable Tn the first place. attend ance by men who had not witnessed theatrical performances for years and who took at random the attractions of a single haphazard week engage ments at the Kansas City theaters cannot. of course, be considered con-
 elusive While the report as whole was favorable. yet both better and worse attractions have been witness ed here. It would have been mani festly unjust to have judged the local stage by an occasional improper or trivial offering. just as it would have been misleading to have made week of Shakespeare at one house, the sea- sons most pretentious musical en- tertainment at another and a big mo- dern dramatic offering at another q criterion of the productions brought to this city. which are representative Of the American stage as q whole
 The problem is not solved by one week s bills.

 A specially interesting feature of the whole matter Is the view that the tank drama" where the william con- quers in all but the last act, gets nearer to elemental morals than the so-called higher class drama. but there Is a great deal to be said in it's favor. It may be yentured that The Girl from Rector's'' and The Blue Mouse" and The Easiest Way The Devil" and other that might be named conld not get into the Gillis theater on any terms. The producers of melodrama know that while their patrons want the william to be as wicked as Relentless Rudolph" they want the mortgage on the old home
 paid off, the hero cleared of the un-
 just charge on which he was fncar- cerated and the william to "get his" Tn thn last act. The patrons Of r1alo-

WORTHY ORGANIZATION.

Few sociological movements have q more direct appeal to general sym oachy than that Of the Society for the Friendless, which is holding q convention in Kansas City at the pres ent time
 There are societies for great many different classes of individuals, but f there is one class which needs q society working T it's behalf 1t $ men who have just been released from prison. and. in q majority Of in stances. are faeing the crisis in thelr lives when a helping hand will draw them back from the precipice on which they stand.
 Attorney General Jackson of Kan sas declares that in his state the sta tistics show that 50 per cent of the conyicts are recIaimable. There is 10 reason for believing that this DOT portion is less in other states; but whether it is or not, the fact remains that something like half Of all the men released from prison stand at the parting of two roads, possible to be started on the path of reformation and kept there by friendly encouragement That is to say, Of at least every two men who leave prison. one is fairly certain to become 2 hardened That is q more significant statement of the situation than to say that both are reclaimable.
 There are movements for the recla- nation of arid lands, but few efforts are made to reclaim arid lives to fruitfulness. Yet no service is of greater benefit to society from every point of view The church does not attempt 1t, but draws away from the convict as from the lepers Of old. The Savior of men did not adopt this at titude, for the friendIess were His friends and brothers The lost sheep were His special care, rather than the ninety and nine that safely lay n the shelter of the fold He prom sed paradise to even the thief on the cross, and His example may we'll be followed by His followers to the ex- tent Of extending q helping hand to those who need it most. This moral 1 service, this conservation | of the resources and development nf the possibilities of potential citizen ship, deserves the heartiest commen- dation of all thinking people. 1t means fewer jails, less crime, more men saved to themselves and to socie ty, more souls in tho heaven and few CT in the hell of the Christian faith, less money spent for policemen. and i,,dges. more faith in human nature, fewer asylums and almshouses, more hope and happiness and fewer hoboes, more Christians and fewer criminals, more righteousness and less wretched- ness.-Kansas City Journal.
