New YORK, April 24-The Herald's 5
Toledo special says: The victims of the
recent outrageous hazing at the Ohio
Wesleyan University, have suffered
greatly in mind as well as in body.
The constant reflection that on their
faces these cabalistic signs will be car
ried through life is by no means food
for quiet peace Of mind. Medical ex-
perts have been called to the city and
every method known to science has
been employed to prevent permanent
Disagreement in the way Of scars, but
at least IN three instances the marks
will stand as living mementoes
throughout life. The branding of six
or seven Of the young lady students of
lower grades by their schoolmates of
old Manhattan is of more serious con-
sequences than at first reported. Three
or four of the girls were terribly Scared

their shoulders and breasts. The object
was to prevent their appearance in full
dress at class receptions and the COM
