THE GALVESTON DAiLY NEWS. FRIDAY, JUNE 21. 1895. MIDNIGHT MOCKERY. Members of the Skull and Bones Wish to Discourage Suicide Clubs by HAVING A MOCK FUNERAL Over a Stuffed Effiey--Will Serve as an Oc.

casion to Initiate New Members, Who Must Conduct the Services. luU? a was ocef.fi*oiii\l In town few fcy j.draijia^ti which appeared in The- announcing the orsMmjutluii a orilc-r 3kui; lionos iiino'ijc unsui-ersiitious youtij men. talk was brought about a rejwrt In The News uf a nildniiiht dinner served 'by the e.ub. At the rtadlnif public wondered who younic nK'ii were, but they were never to find out and Kowevor. ilio younjj men jecai trive the public hits 'of anonymous and an oet of rhclits at tneir hist the In this direction.

The decided to have a nuck funeral. But the vecuK-ar circumstanced under which the sa- cred rlg'hts are 10 be read Cs what caused the part. The XeWij had furnished wC-th a re- iwrt of uhe proceeding under vhe nir-omise no names wlU be divulged. seema when the caMed the meeting to oi-Jer vne of the youns men arcoe uiul f.skei! nhjeet for whk-h the oTub betn It was staged tiiat the club undertook -to kill at'i ihiln-gs which funackcd of suptrsUtion. The first speaker 'tfhen saul that ihui.

wiiej what he supixjsed. lie then quoted a from a iocal paper -wtoich cabled a meeting of a society known as the Sans of Murder. He said that -ail through tiia couiwrv there were of one name or another. rhe oibject orf was -murder. Men met eac-h year, a drawing nnd the man who drew the black bean 'forced to commit suicide.

Ke said finch a thing was outrageous tiiac It 'the dutv of the Skull and Bones t-i their conduct as as tIe. He 'therefore eugssted 't'hat tha cCuto ineet and choose or 11 member, who -siip- posed to- ktfl'l "He wLH not. do this of couroe." said the speaker, "but we will imagine fhe toes, fix up an efflgy of Mm, ihoM a reg-u'ar funeral service over 'him, flace-4ilm tn a casket and 'bury Mm. This to shDinte those Tana'tios of suicide clu'b -fame ajid at -the same time show people that we mean honestly to ivipe out su- persttti-on. I -would sugffeat i dha we have this funeral take place at midnight in order to make i-t -the more so-lemn." The presiding officer objected to any euch syng it would make 'the rld't-ii'Ious.

The members, however, -were obdura'te, many speaking- in favor of sucth an to the -fun Ct iwoufld a-f- The chair was equally c-hd-urate, saying 'that the local clergy end people re- g-Jously. Inclined would angry at suoh a proceeding. (However, the chair's objec- rema-ined unheeded and the motion was railroaded 'phroug-h. certain young man, a member of the ftub, -saiid yesterday: "Oh. -fche -boys wCI have a oCd -time.

We mean -to- get u.p at 12 o'clock, have the body in a coffin ana hold reg-ular ot. We -wi'll nave the fcody in dark room ana make 4hc proceeding's as weird as possible, even -more weird our din- WT can present -who received 'invt'tations and each member cam issue ihut one. We lo not cm-ticCpate any trouble from -the Oocal au-thorities, as it te our own what -we do If suicide dubs, in -which men actually kVI are aKowed to undis- any one o-biect to our conducting a mock funeral? As I before, it -mm be a weird affair. We win use plenty -ot red fire and torch -lights and dress the uniform of our LOCH-, order--deviS-'s costumes. We 3ha'-l toave a hearse If we can borrow one" A gentleman well known 1n church circles was very Indignant In speaking of the mock funeraJ, saying: that such a proceeding would be highly sacrilegious and waa en-tirely unwarranted.

"-I believe as nrtich as any one." he said, in letting boys enjoy themselves, I ne raiEe any Ejections to this ll and Bones business until they went a i rry in to far Their 'nner ad waa cl swearing al- legtajice to the devil, and al! -that sort of nonsensical stuff, but when It comes to making ligltt of auch a sacred part of the hply- book as the funeral service-, I draw not be allowed, jffi ous and the authorities should" kill the movement vrhen it is yet In its infancy The rI funeral Is to take plaoe on JSi?" meml may pray that ho jvill not be the young man whose effigy is to be hanged, for while It would not put -him to as much inconvenience to be put off this earth In play only as to be killed In reality, still no man Jlkes to know that a fac stnUte of himself has -been 'buried with all the rites of the church. Some members say that the unfortunate younsr man should not be allowed to be present at his own funerjU, but opinion seems to be divided on this score, some holding one way and some a.nother, so the young man will have to decide for himself whether he wishes to see his own remains interred beneath the earth. The constitution of the Galveston Skull nes swlet provides that membership shall be limited to fifty-two younir men. The club started out with thirteen- charter members. At their annuaJ banciuet thirteen, more were Initiated, maklnt? a total of twenty-six.

At the last regular meeting thcr? were thirteen more applications ror mf.mberh'ip, which were accepted making a total of thirty-nine, so that the club can take in only thirteen more men. It has been decided to take in these thirteen other members over the casket at the funeral and make them pall barera of the body. This is rather a. repulsive job end it Is -whether the secretory will -be overrun with candidates- desiring-to become members. In order to become a lull-neagod advocate of the Skull and Bones cause one has to go through many disagreeable experiences, but doubtless the most disagreeable of all will be the one that QcvoH-ei, upon the young man who will be chosen to bury the corpse.

It will be strictly a Texas and Montgomery county institution, and besides manufacturing will enter largely in the growing of tobacco also, as It expects to put in fifty acres of tobacco the comlpg year. The gentlemen who have gone into this enterprise 'have plenty of money to back them.

They expect to have a large corps of cigar makers from the north and if the weather admits they will be ready this year's- crop. A TEXA'RKANA TRAGEDY. Melvin Anderson Shoots and Kills Edward Baker--Cause of the Difficulty. Texarkana, June is the scene of another killing. Last night Melvin A-nderson shot and Edward Baker.

The tragedy took place in the Home on Broad street. The difficulty started last-Monday; wTien is a deputy constable, made an unwilling witness of Baker against a grocery store for Sunday violation in selling cigarettes. The men quarreled about the matter, but no blows were passed, and they were gether yesterday, seemingly good friendti; At night Baker got drunk, and seeing Anderson leaning on the bar at the Home saloon, walked up 'to him and dealt him a blow in the face, and at -the same time drawing his pistol. Anderson went after his gun, and both men fired at almost the same time. Anderson shot three times, killing Baker instantly.

Anderson was not hit, and as soon as he saw the result, went to 'the city marshal and gave -himself up, and Is under guard now waiting 1 an Investigation. Baker was-only 20 years old, and was the support of a widowed mother. He carried a policy in the Provident union for $1000. TERRIBLE ACCIDENT.

Austin June L. Thulemeyer vs. State--Appeal from Travis: Forgery. A continuance wus on ucvount of the absence of one Cook, whose resMe4.ce defendant stated he did no: know, uiu that he usi-d due diligence to tind -where he could bo fonnd; that he had employed Hetev-iive to looute. him, and letter was attached showing that Cook was located at Iiuredo.

This letter seems to have been written hy Knahan In San Antonio to fendant, also in San Antonio. It was pro posnl to prove by Cook that he had giv defendant power of attorney to collect warrant on the state treasury. which the subject of tlie forgery. Looking to Ih entiro record this court is inclined to th opinion Pha't Cuok Is hardly a real person or if a real person it would be difficult, no: to procure his attendance Defendant claims to have ncted under 'th power this Cook, while he write to the treasury thin Cook is In San Al tonlo he testifies he never saw hiir What -he expected to prove by the wi'l ness is not probably- true. Appellant claims that If he commute any offense it was In Bexar and not I Travis county, and this is the serious ciue- tk-n In the case.

The fort-try consisted Indorsing on the back of a treasury war rant for direct tux the names "U'm per Wm. M. cook. jr. and th proofs show that tlvis indorsement made In Bexar county by appellant for purpose of negotiating the warrant to bank In Sa.n Antonio.

The bank cashc the warmn.t. paying Hie money to appel ant. nnd forwarded it to Austin for ro lection. So far as appellant was concerne. this was a complete transaction.

It was longer his property, bin of the bank In ftt Antonio. The statute provides that th offense of forgery may be prosecuted any county where the instrument wa forged or where ttoe same was used passed. The case of Bishop vs. State (3 34) is pertinent to the issue presenter and is quoted at length 1n the opinion. I this case the transaction constituting th forgery, Including fhe absolute transfer the instrument, was consummated in Bexa and appellant had no further control ove or interest in the warrant.

He had doubt anticipated t'hat 'the bank woul collect the money from the treasurv a Austin, but to him t'hat was a matter indifference. Our statute has reference some act done by the alleged forger in th county In which he is to be prose cuted. Whether he does this by himself by an agent IB Immaterial; but where has panted wilth the instrument and ha no property In or 1 control over Vhe same can not be prosecuted therefor in som other county, in which some other partv has subsequently passed it. Reversed anc remanded. Opinion by Henderson, J.

Wiley Williams vs. State--Appeal fror San Saba: Violating local option law: the commissioners' court, upon a petition of fifty voters, order an election for loca option in a part of the county embracing two justices' precincts, calling the same a subdivision and describing the territor" bi metes and bounds? The question is" an swered in the affirmative. Afflrnieil. Opin ion by Henderson, J. Qi'Uao Hall-Appeal from ooa: Hall was arrested on two warrants one for carrying a pistol and for assaul to rape.

Both cases were pending before a justice. In the assault case he was held to bail in the sum of $250. In the pisto case he was fined--the fine and costs amounting to 8 S7 an(ii ne was comn tea to jail until the same was paid On Peb ruary 5 thereafter he made oath that he was too poor to pay.lt. Qn March 1 re later offered bail in the assault case, -which the sheriff refused to take, unless he would pay the line and costs in the pistol case Held, that the sheriff, should have taken the bail. On acceptance of bail -it became the duty ot the county judge to hire ou the convict.

Failing to do this, defendan was entitled to $3 per day since March 1 when he tendered bail. That would' dis charge the line nnd costs, and so relator was entitled to discharge from custody on account of the pistol case. The grand jury failed to find a bill for felony, but for ag sravated assault. That case Is not here for consideration. Applicant discharged Opinion by Henderson, J.

B. F. Clements vs. State--Appeal from Lamar: Incest. Defendant put in issue the legitimacy of his daughter and asks a reversal on the ground that the evidence sustained the issue.

The question waa fairly submitted to the jury and their finding Is supported. Evidence of cruel treatment of the daughter, It appearing that this was for the purpose of forcing her to submit to his will, was admissible Af firmed. Opinion by J. John Rope'vs. State--Appeal from Bee Assault.
