PRISON DEATH
BOX DESCRIBED
Jacksonville, Fla.. Oct. 8 (IP) A
description of the crudely made
"sweat box in which the state al
leges two prison camp guards tor
tured Arthur Maillefert. 19, to
death, was given today by W. H.
Casque, detective.
It was largely Gasque'a persist
ence In Investigating prison camp
conditions that resulted In Indict
ments charging Capt. C. W. Cour
son and Sol Higglnbotham. the
guards, with murder.
Gasque said tlie sweat box at
Sunbeam prison camp, in which
Maillefert died of strangulation,
lacked two and a half Inches of
conforming to state regulations.
The detective testified "picked'
witnesses at the road camp had
corroborated the stories of Oourson
and Higglnbotham that the Mew
Jersey youth had committed suicide
to escape a nine year sentence,
Courson objected to his investi
gation, Gasque said, remarking tlie
justice of the peace had said none
would be necessary.
"I told him I was going to in
vestigate, anyway," Gasque testl'
fied. "I asked a group of other
prisoners If they knew anything
about it. They said they knew
'plenty'."
According to Gasque, Courson
then admitted Maillefert had been
nailed in the heavy wooden stocV
and trussed by the neck with
chain when placed m a solitary cell
in the "sweat box .
"I found tlie chain still hanging
from the rafter In the 'sweat box,
the detective testified. "The stocks
were hidden In the rear of the box."

EEK TO STOP
LION HUNT IN
OZARK WILDS
St. Louis, Oct. S (IP) The humane
society and the attorney general
were all that stood between four 8t,
Louis men and a thrilling lion
hunt in the "jungles" of southeast
Missouri today.
The men had the lions two of
them the Jungle, the guns, and
the courage (they said), but the
Missouri humane society has asked
the attorney general to declare
lions out of season.
Denver M. Wright, manufacturer.
Is the promoter of the proposed "big
game" hunt. He bought the lions
from a former circus employe who
had taken them instead of salary.
Wright paid out $75 for the two
shaggy and almost toothless beasts
of the jungle. He put them in a
cage In his back yar.d Their night-
ly terrifying roars enraged the
neighborhood and aent children
running for home.
Three friends of Wright had been
Invited to accompany him and tlie
lions to southeast Missouri where
he said he had found 24,00 acres
of "Jungle" in which a white man's
axe has never fallen.
He plans to turn the lions loose
In the woods late some afternoon
soon and then he and his compan
ions, led by dogs, plan to take up
the hunt. "Sort of bring Africa to
the United States," Wright explain
ed.
I've always done a lot of hunt
ing,, Wright said. "I go out each
season and usually come back with
my game bag carrying the limit of
ducks, quail or Tabbits."
Are these lions vlcloufl, man-
eating beasts," he was asked. "I
don't exactly know," tlie sportsman
replied. "They took like lions and
they roar like Lions and they eat
like lions. I guess they're lions.
They eat 12 pounds of raw beef a
dny."
Erich Hansen, manager of the
Missouri humane society has an
nounced his opposition to the hunt.
"A dangerous and foolhardy stunt,"
Hansen said, and added he had
wired a protest to the attorney gen
eral and tlie state game and fish,
commissioner.
