J. Guerln Desjardlns, visiting representative of the French Boy Scout organizations. In the party were Eagle, Sccuts Dale Gordon. Fred Kold, Richard Farker, James Halsey, Leland LaBell and Assistant Scoutmaster Leslie De-Camp. The Hammond bunch proved to be the only out-of-town visitors. The meeting -was composed of District Scout Executives of Chicago, Deputy Commlsioners and members of the Chicago Boy Scout Council. At this meeting plans were laid for the organization of the Chicago Scout Leaders Association to meet regularly and to 'be called the Dan Beard Club, It so happened that all the Hammond Scouts present were members of the Hammond Dan Beard Club which is the Junior leadership Association of the Hammond Boy Scouts, and so they felt that the Chicago bunch had chosen a very trood name. Every person that attended this meeting came away feeling that he had received great inspiration and a vision of the things that scc-uting

TRIPLE MURDER

IS

AVENGED

and then tossed the bodies back Into the fire, wherethey were so badly burned that tha murders were never proven conclusively until Julius confessed.

f"T,0N1 NES SERVICE WtJATHKRSFlELD. Conn., Oct. 24. Grasping in his hand two pink roses which had been brought to his cell, and white and well nigh speechless with terror, fimil Schutte, triple slayer, former store deeper and constable of Haddam, was hanged early today at the state prison. His only utterance was. "Well, good bye," as the death cap was drawn over his head. His whitened hands grasped the two ror.es so tightly that they were still held firmly when the execution was over. A letter signed by Julius Schutte, the son, upon whose testimony the man was convicted, and by three other children, dated Oct. 22, urged Schutte to confess the crime. So far as could be learned, however, he died without any admission of his guilt. The crime for which Schutte was the murder of Joseph Ball. Mrs. Ball and their aon. Jacob. The murder of the family in Haddam. concealed for six years, was one of the most gruesome of Connecticut murder tragedies. According to the story of the son Julius, the father, who had nursed .-. grudgo against the Balls, took him with him to their little shack on the night of December 10. 1916, deliberately set fire to the building, shot down the Balls.
