HaZing Methods at AnnaDGsis.

The 'Plebs,' as the fourth classmen at An
napolls are called, have had hard ii me of it
ever since the commencement Of the session.
Inc third classmen commenced the haz;nr by
passing an order that whenever they entered a
room OF a ''Pleb' the latter must rise and re-
main standing until the visitor departed
This was submitted to for several DAYS. when
one night the hazers made the rounds and re-
CURED nearly every "Pleb' to climb I'D on ton
OF ms wardrobe and sit there for five minutes
by degrees the haZers grew bolder. and men
were made to stand on their heads in bmckets
ana were also compelled to lather and shave
each other with the lids of water buckets
This latter requirement caused much trn,,hSc
ana several rows occurred which how
ever, were carefully hidden from the author-
tiles. ~ '"'ioi
The ''Statue act" an old college hazino nen-
atty. was next resOrted to. The fourth classman
would be hauled out Of bed at unseemiv hnnrs
and made to strip and assume statuesnne att
titudes on chairs and beds for the delectation of
jubilant crowd Of third classmen Rnmors of
these disturbances of course soon reached the
ears OF the board. but in such indefinite shane
that Admiral Rodgers. although convinced that
something was wrong. could not prove the guilt
OF any of the hazers. Finally OH Monday party
OF the third class cadets went into room a. oc-
cupied by fourth class Cadets I. p. Ledbetter,
OF Alabama. and j. p. McGuinness of Iowa The
visitors announced that they wanted to have a
disappearing scene and that when the word
was given the Plebs would have to get out of
sight; when the signal to reappear was given
tney would have to comply, and the last man
would be '.sandwiched" The s.plebsf fhou0ht
submission the better course, and when the sig
mai was given McGuinness dived under a table
and I1edbetter beneath the bed. The visitors
bounced ON Ledbetter, and, placing him be-

COWper'S Hymn.

COWpers beautiful hymn. "GOd Moves i'm a
Mysterious Way" was universally sung in the
recent memorial services to our late President
BY order of Bishop Littlejofn it formed part of
the service In all the Episcopal churches of Long
Island. No hymn could have been written more
appropriate for the occasion. There is a sub
lime sermon in that composition: every verse.
aye, every cOuplet and line can furnish text
for an entire discourse. There is something i'm
teresting and pathetic in the origin and com
position of this hymn which is not generally
known. nor have ever seen it mentioned in
the biographies or sketches of the life of the
author. 1t was told me by an old clergyman
VINO was well acquainted with the circumstance
C0Wper. it will be remembered, was of a mel
ancholy turn Of mind, and his mind became
morbid on the subject of religion. In fact, at
tunes he had fits of insanity. In London, while
Illuminating on the usefulness of human life. he
was seized with the sudden impulse to de-
himself: He ordered hackney coach to be
brought to the door. When it arrived he rushed
down stairs and into it without giving orders
where it was to be-driven. Waiting some little
time, the driver asked where he would like to
be taken to. ''TO hefhames." The manner
and look in which these words were uttered
convinced the driver, who appears to have had
more than the usual intelligence of men of his
class, that his occupant was deranged. He
drove OH. but not to the river where COwper had
oiueieu niii. ne ufo'e up one street and down
another for long time while Cowper sat back
in his seat in mental abstraction, which con-
WINGED the driver that he was crazy. After
long. roundabout drive, he drove I'D to the
poets lodgings and told him he had arrived
'where he was ordered" Cowper descended
from the vehicle entered the house and went to
his room. Then in his returning consciousness
the truth of the entire transaction entered his
mind, and he found that he had not seen the
river at all, nor had he drowned himself, as he
int I,Iv La
before. In this he saw the hand of Providence
and Immediately composed the hymn:
God moves in mysterious way
His wonders to perform,
which will be sung as long as hymns are sung in
religious worship.-John Barnard, In Nesc York

Several continental observers appear to have
been lately studying the sounds which may be
heard in telephone that is connected with a
wire stretched, say, between the roofs of two
houses and connected with the water or gas
pipes. On the occurrence Of lightning more es
peciaily sounds are heard, and at the same in
slant according to n. Rene Thury of Geneva)
as the flash Is seen. whatever the distance of the
latter Even when no thunder was heard. and
the discharge must have been at least thirty
five kilOmeters off. NJ Thury observed these in
duetion effects. He says the sound is like that
of a Swedish match rubbed on the box The
telephone affords an easy method of studying
the velocity of transmission and other features
of this electrical influence. NJ. Lalagrade who
has experimental similarly for some time
past thought to amplify the sounds. and
did so, by placing two microscopes on
the plate of the receiving telephone The ar
ran"ement is set up in quiet room. where all
foreign vibrations are guarded against and the
author is able to hear the least sound at a dis
tance of one Metre or more from the second tel
ephone. Again. VI. Landerer. at TortOsa finds
currents produced in his teiephOne-circuit by
atmospheric electricity. in three different ways
FIRST, the condensation OF aqueous vapOr re-
suits in a sound recalling the cry of tin. A SEN
sltIve galyanometer in the circuit is not or
hardly. affected. These sounds are strongest at
night Next. there are the sounds which oc-
cur during lightning (and the currents produc-
Ing which affect galyanOmeter considerably
Thirdly the wind generates currents which do
not act on the telephone. but act on the gaYa-
noIneter strongly. at TOrtosa the very dry
west winds produce the greatest oscillations
1eliurlc or earth currents act both on the gal
vanometer and on the telephone: they are dis
tin@ushed from atmospheric currents by the
regularity and continuity of their action during
pretty long Intervals.

ArscsiH n Well Makers

say that water can be found anywhere the ones
ton being only one of depth. This would seem
to be proved by operations in the desert of Sa-
hara, the last place in which one would look for
water. In that desert French engineers have
sunk from Is to 100 wells which Weld 600 600
gallons of water per hour. With this water a
large space has been brought under high state
of cultivation. Among the more noteworthy
artesan wells in the United States is that of the
insane asylum of st. Louis Mo- 1t is 8. S13 feet
deep, and yields 4.500 gallons per hour The
water is warm, averaging nearly 10, In the
same city sugar refinery has well of 2.2O
feet. yielding about 5000 gallons per hour In
Louisville, KY, is one 2,Oo6 feet deep. giving
l4,C0O gallons per hour. Charleston, s. c.. is
poorly situated for water. and the city council
mas spent much money in trying remedies. COM
menclng as far back as 1924 The result has
been an artesian well 1850 feet deep Welding
1.2O0 gallons per hour. In Philadelphia the
Continental Hotel has 206-foot well. s inches
in diameter, giving 1890 gallons per hour
mere IS a deeper and more prolific well in the
United States mint in that city. In New Or
leans there are wells of 600 feet; one in Column
bus, Ohio, 2, 775 feet, and at Onarga. ILL.,. IS
miles south OF Chicago, within circle of
40 miles diameter are 200 wells. averaging about
Is feet in depth. and yielding 2 225 gallons per
hour. On the plains and in the Colorado desert
artesian wells are to be found. and also in the
OIL regions OF Pennsylvania. Many years ago
the augers used in boring salt well at Salina.
~ T., fell into some unknown lake 500 feet
below the surface The tools were lost. but the
salt water came up abundantly. In California
1t is estimated that there are more than a
thousand artesian wells most of which are flow
ing. France is celebrated for these wells. One
in the department Pas de Calais was sunk in
il62, and is still flowing abundantly The
famous well at Grenele. near Paris. .7H feet
deep, was finished in 1912, and yields 81 600 gal
Ions an hour. At Passy there is well 92S feet
deep, giving the enormous quantity of 62 600
gallons an hour. London has a large number
of wells. and they may be found in almost all
civilized countries. The water from deep wells
is warm, the temperature increasing degree
for every Is or 50 feet of depth The water is
usually impregnated with minerals, and few
wells give water that is fit to drink While
their water would serve for putting out fires.
for the streets, washing, stables, and many
other purposes, it could not be used for drink
ing. cooking. or brewing. Their value in New
York is limited. and it would be unsafe to de-

ENGLISH PASSENGERS CARS.


travelling correspondent of the Detroit Free
Press writes: The English railway carriages
strike Americans as being equally odd in APP
pearance. Some are mounted on four wheels
and the resemblance to an old style stage coach
is made more plain by the four Compartments

divided. The newer form of carriage is longer.

the center Of the coach, in which case there is
more jOlting.
The interior of the compartment follows as
nearly as may be. the SAME model of an old
fashioned stage coach. The first-claSs compart-
ments are well upholstered with carriage cloth.

preference Is to ride in that way There are
advantages in respect to warmth and greater
immunity from ciRders when the windows are
open.
Doors at each side give admission to the COM
partment. The handle with which they are
fastened is always on the outside. Frequently
the doors are doubly locked; when such is the
case the passenger must wait until they are
opened at the station. The upper part Of the
door is of glass and may be lowered a stout
strap with eyeet holes regulating the opening.

compartments and the van occupied by the

Over one of the middle seats in the compart-

the alarm cannot replace the button. The dis
arrangement of the apparatus discovers the
compartment from whence the communication
came. There is a penalty of IS for pulling the
electric button and sounding an alarm without
reasonable and sufficient cause.
