MAKES SON A PATR|C|DE
FATHER coMPELs BOY TO KILL
HIM WITH GUN.
Mad Dream From Which Parent
Awakens Is Thought TO Have Led
to Extraordinary Tragedy.

Greenwich, Gonna mad dream
from which he had awakened
in real life by Fred Hustled at his
nome where by deception he made a
patricide out of his 12-year-old son,
Lester. There is only one witness to
the death of Husted-his son-and
the remarkable story told by the boy
has been accepted by the authorities
and Hustled was adjudged a suicide.
Hustled was 46 years old and owned a
valuable farm of so acres. One after
noon he awoke with cry from a
sound sleep and seemed to be in a
daze. He told his wife that he had
experienced a horrible dream but
would not tell her Of its nature.
Hustled directed that she should go to
the home of Charles Young, a neigh
Dor, and ask him to do an errand in
the city. Mrs. Hustled put her baby
in its crib upstairs and left the other
children playing in the garden. AS
soon as his wife was out of sight,
Hustled called his young son, Lester.
By the time the boy reached the
house Hustled had placed double bar
relied shotgun across table. Kneel-
ing so that he looked directly into the
muzzle Hustled told his little boy who
could hardly have raised the heavy
arm to his shoulder to pull the trig-
ger. Lester was afraid to obey.
ut is all right, son." Lester says his
father told him. THE gun is not
loaded. You pull the trigger for l
want to hear how it sounds" The
boy pulled the triggers but kept his
thumb on the hammers so they fell
lightly up the firing pins. There
was no explosion and the father re-
buked his son for failing to obey him
and again cooked the gun. Placing
himself in position, Hustled said:
Nov pull the trigger, son, Father
wants to hear how 1t sounds. The
gun is not loaded" Lester pulled
one of the triggers and his father fell
dead from the effects of the full
charge of heavy shot which had en-
tered the side of his head. 1t was the
opinion of physicians and others that
Husted's dream had taken such firm
hold on him that he enacted it just as
it had come to him in the vision.

HAS HEAD GUT OFF BY TRAIN
Man Lays Neck Across Rails After
Few Months of Unhappy
Married Life.

Sharon, Pa.-Michael Deitcher, 46,
committed suicide by laying his
head on the railroad track. With
the death there ended the last chapter
of a married life of only few months
that was filled with many tragedies.
The mans head was discovered stand
ing on it's neck in pool of blood and
directly in the middle of the Stanton
street crossing. The discovery was
made by workmen. The body was
discovered in clump of bushes some
distance away. Dietcher was married
on January "a. He had $500 in the
bank at the time. Two days after
the ceremony had been performed, he
was injured and has since been un-
able to work. His wife continued to
draw on the little hoard Of the thrifty
German until it was all gone. Then,
three weeks ago, she had him ar
rested for nonsupport. He left home.
Perrysburg journal. (Perrysburg, Wood Co., O. [Ohio]) 186?-1965, 1911-05-26

A gentleman never snatches his
discovers her going through his pock-
cts. He only hopes she will leave him
enough with which to go downtown in
the morning. He is perfectly welcome
to go through her purse any time and
help himself to anything he can find.
That Is what married life means. A
man should not allow his feelings to be
hurt when his wife runs across loose
change or a roll in his pockets; he
ought to play the game and take such
little conjugal pastimes for granted.

HONOR PAID TO l'ENFAN1
Memorial to French Engineer Who
Laid Out Washington Is Unveiled,
President Making an Address.

Washington, D. C.-Impressive cere-
monies marked the unveiling May
20 of the memomial to Major Len
fant, the French engineer who laid
out the plans for the city of Washing
ton, at Arlington. President Taft,
Senator Root and the French ambas.
sador, M. Jusserand, delivered brief
addresses, and the occasion was given
a degree of military pomp by the pres
ence of a considerable number of the
troops stationed in Washington and
Fort Myer. For many years the body
Of Major L'Enfant lay in a modest
grave on the old Digges farm, in
Prince Georges county, Md. H. B. F.
MacFarland, at that time president
of the board of district commission
ers, took lively interest In the pro-
ject to remove Major L'Enfant's re-
mains to Arlington, and congress
finally authorized the commissioners
to expend $1,000 in transferring the
remains. The body was reinterred at
Arlington on the afternoon of April
2S, 1909.

COL. ROOSEVELT FLAYS PACT
Proposed Arbitration Treaties With
Great Britain and France.

New York City.-Colonel Roosevelt
in The Outlook fiayed in scathing
language President Tafts proposed ar
bitration treaties with Great Britain
and France, whereby war would be
eliminated in the settlement of ques-
tions "of national honor" Roosevelt
compares a country, bound bg such a
treaty, to a man who would go to law
when his wife "is assaulted and has
her face slapped" Such an individual,
says the colonel, "who went to law in
stead of forthwith Furnishing the Of
fender, would be regarded with deri-
sion."
"In Just the same way the United
States" he declares, Ought never
specifically to bind itself to arbitrate
questions respecting it's honor, inde-
pendence and integrity. Either it
should be tacitly understood that the
contracting powers no more agree to
surrender their rights on such vital
matters than man in civil life agrees
to surrender the right of self-defense;
or else it should be explicitly stated
that, because Of the fact that 1t is now
impossible for either party to take
any action infringing the honor, inde-
pendence and integrity of the other,
we are willing to arbitrate all ques-
tions. Hypocrisy never pays in the
long run. Even II the Indifference of
the majority Of the nation should per-
nit a specific agreement to be made
to arbitrate such vital questions, that
same majority would promptly-and
quite properly-repudiate the agree
ment the moment that it became nee
essary to enforce it. No self-respect.
ing nation, no nation worth calling a
nation, would ever in actual practice
consent to surrender its rights in such
matters"

KILLS MINISTER OF WAR
FALLING MoNoPLANE ALSO sERL
ouSLY HURTS PREMIER.
Machine Becomes Unmanageabie
While In the Air and Plunees Into
Great Crowd Of Spectators.

Paris, France.-In the teeth of half
a gale three daring aviators, each
carrying a passenger, are flying on
their way from Paris to Madrid and
in their wake lie the mangled remains
Of Frances great minister of war;
Henri Berteaux, a martyr to the
greatest race in the air yet begun
In this city Antoine Manuel Monis,
Premier of France, is victim, in.
jured, it was first believed, unto
death. The doctors say he will re.
cover. Antoine Monis, Jr., a son Of
the premier, victim to his own
heroic and probably successful at
tempt to save his fathers life, is suf
fering from serious injuries but will
recover. Henri De La Maurethe, fa
nous throughout France as the patron
of aeronautics. is badly hurt.
The accident occurred on the avi
alton field at Issy les Molineux where
100000 persons had gathered to see
the start of the race. M. Train was
plotting the monoplane that wrought
such havoc. With him in the car
was M. Bounier, passenger. Neither
of the men was injured. The machine
became unmanageable and smashed
into the crowd. 1t was wrecked.
Maurice Berteaux, the dead min.
lister of war, was one of the most
brilliant men In France. He was a
Socialist. Before entering Premier
Monis' cabinet he made great for
tune as a stock broker indeed, SO
fascinated was he with business, that
he continued to hold his seat in the
Bourse after his election to the cham.
ber of deputies and after he was
chosen to the cabinet. M. Berteaux
was among the first to recognize the
great value of the aeroplane in war
and under his direction the French
army is more thoroughly equipped
with air craft than any other
1t is considered the irony of fate here
that NJ. Berteaux should have been
killed by the machine he was fore
most in developing. He was born in
1852. Antoine Emmanuel Ernst Moins,
who is seriously injured, succeeded
M. BRAND as premier in March of the
present year.

PRAISES THE MEN
BEHIND THE GUNS
sEcRETARY OF NAVY SAYS WE
ARE BETTER FIGHTERS THAN
WHEN WE DEFEATED SPAIN.
TELLS OF IMPROVED MARKMANSHIP
Declares Increased Efficiency Has
Been Brought About by Better
Appliances and Systematic
Study of Men.

New York City.-If statements made
by Secretary of the Navy George
Won l.. Meyer at the Economic clubs
banquet at the hotel Astor were accu-
rate the United States need not have
very much fear of war with Japan
or anyone else. We are 1900 per
cent. better fighters, according to Sec
retary Meyer, than we were when we
defeated Spain in 1898, and that was
considered, if recollection is correct,
quite a decisive victory.
Scientific management" Mr.. Meyer
told the 600 guests who listened to
general discussion of international ar
bitration, it's international, it's eco
nomic and political aspects, is respon-
sible. In 1898 the percentage of hits
at the battle of Santiago was 31s per.
cent. Today 1t is 33 1-3 per cent, al
though the range has increased from
5000 to more than 10000 yards. The
rate of fire then was one shot in five
minutes. Today 1t is two shots in one
minute. A comparison of the in
creased rate of firing, the increase in
the range and the percentage of hits
shows that we are 1900 times better
today than we were at Santiago. This
has been brought about by better ap-
pliances and by systematic study Of
the men and their qualifications and
the recognition of necessity of plac-
ing men, after a careful test, in duties
in which they do the best. 1t means
team work and the saving of millions
and even seconds, where in the indus
trial world it is a question of hours"
Hudson Maxim, the inventor, fol-
lowed Mr.. Meyer. He argued strongly
for war instead of peace. Baron
D'Etournelles De Constant, member
of the French senate and president of
the Association for International
Peace, made an eloquent plea for dis
armament and for the arbitration of
all international differences. He has
been speaking on peace throughout
the United Staets for several months.
He paid high tribute to President
Tafts conduct of the Mexican situa-
ton. Hamilton Holt, editor of the In
dependent, also pleaded for peace. His
most interesting statement was lit
tie verse in which he touched upon
Colonel Roosevelt. 1t was this:
Though T. R. pleads for war to cease,
With all its roar and rattle.
He seems to say, I love you, peace
But, oh, you fine sham battle!

RIDDLE VICTIMS LIKE SIEVE
Ten Men Take Six Negroes From Jail,
Tie Them to Tree and Then FIJI
Bodies With Bullets.

Lake City, Flask negroes were
lynched here for the murder of
q prominent citizen. They were taken
to the suburbs of the city, tied
to tree and riddled with bullets.
The negroes were gotten out of the
Jail by ten men who claimed to be
officers and who presented to the IT.
year-old son of the sheriff a fake tele-
gram which told them to release the
negroes. The boy had been left in
charge by his father and thinking the
message was official allowed the men
to enter the Jail. When the negroes
were strung up to the tree the signal
was given and the ten men opened
fire with rifles, riddling the victims
like a sieve.
