went u to Schulz, county Cork. wherein
aged widow named Cunningham resides.
The officers declared that the old lady was
the mother Of james Cunningham, the

London, and they thought some evidence
against the son might be found at his
mothers abode. So they went to a mis-
cradle little howell where Mrs. Cunning

abode for the purpose Of searching IL
The woman. besides being old, is i'll an

vasion of her domicile, she said the case
must be one of mistaken identity.

Less Hazing Than Heretofore.

A subordinate officer, who has
been on duty at the Naval Academy
for long period, said, in reference
to the report of the Cox committee,
that there was less hazing in the
academy now than there has been for
years; that cadet for merely making
two "plebs' stand at attention was
given four months on the Santee.
No rough pranks are played ct all.
AS to Cadet Strang's death, he was
not hazed. He was not in the acad-
emy long enough for it. It is almost
absolutely known here that Strang
was not injured in the academy, and
some Of the reports put out about Ca
Diet Strang are lndicrous from tneI
general falsity.
