IL is tho only autumn resort In this part
OF the country, taking no account OF mere
sportman's f-sorts. The seaside cities
and villages arc notfrequented in autumn
because OF tho raw winds and the dreary
outlook. Inland resorts, wny from
mountains, lose their attractiven ess with
the loss OF hot weather. and the visitor Is
no longer able to keep up his lndu =
with comfort; but In the IN mountal usr8
glons.generally there is no autumn e
IN name, and the pnasage from su Ia -uer
to wintry weather Is rapid. But there is an
beauty.
The air may get frosty keenness and
there may tie some cold waves. but these
arc only the cheap prices Of ruddy cheeks
ana elastic muscles. a clear brain ana
bountful How OF spirits.
In place OF the dreary time that comes
upon most resorts by the middle of Sep.
tetnDer. visitors there often get q climate
that Is quite mild up to the middle OF
November. As September passes. the
foiiuBe begins to turn from green TO bril-.
liant and varied huss.
1t is said to he rue that nowhere else
In the United States ara such wonderful

TRIAL OF THE HAZERS,
One Of the ASSailantS Of Young
Thomas Convicted and Fined.

Fifteen Others Under Indictment for
the Same ofense-Emmett Cooper
the First One Convicted Jury
Recommends Mercy, and Judge
MacDonell Imposes a Fine Of $40.
An Effectual Stop to Hazing.
The case of the state against Walter
Fill, Sam Goldstein, Sim Polinsky. En-
nett Cooper and others, charged with
assault and battery on George P. Thomas,
was taken up in the city court yesterday.
Mr. ". w. Osborne, who represents sew
eral Of the defendants, applied for sep
arate trials in each case.
The case Of Emmett Cooper was taken
W and he was found guilty by the Jury
with a recommendation to the extreme
mercy of the court. Judge MacDoneu
fined the offender $40 and costs, or sen
fenced him to serve two months on the
chain-gang. The fine, together with
costs, will amount to about S32, and this
will probably be paid.
This is the much written about hazing
case in which young Thomas asserted he
was beaten numerically by the appren-
tees at the Central railroad shops, Feb.
- the day he went 10 work there Six
teen of the apprentices were indicted for
taking part in the hazing. According to
the evidence Thomas was laid across
some bars, his head was held and
each of the boys hit him three
or four ticks with paddle
which was kept for the purpose of initia-
ting all new corners. Thomas asserted
that he was beaten until he was uncon-
sciOus. Several of the boys testified that
ne cursed them and resisted, declaring he
would shoot any of them who
tried to whip him. Foreman Borchert
of the shops says he saw the
whipping administered, but did not
consider it unusually severe, or he would
have interfered to stop it. Other en-
poyes Of the shops saw it. Thomas stated
he protested against it, but was beaten
numerically in spite of his objections to
being initiated
1t is not known what will be done with
regard to the other cases. Some of them
may plead guilty in order to save attor-
neys' fees, as they would probably be as
sessed the same fine, while it may be that
others of them will fight the case to the
last.
