HAZING.
President Graves Gives Publicity to
Recent fragrant Offenses.

To the Editor OF The Republican.
Greatly exaggerated reports in re-
gard to the late "hazing' at the uni
versity have been floating about the
city for the past two days. While this
publicity is unfortunate and accidental,
it may be as we'll, inasmuch as it gives
an opportunity for a full official state
ment of the case.
1t has been stated by persons ignor-
ant of the matter that this is the first
time anything of the sort has occurred.
and that dreadful things were perform
ed. AS a matter Of fact "hazing," to
a greater or less extent, has been car
ried or at the university each year, al
though this is the first time the mat
ter has received publicity. Nothing
would have been heard of it at this
time except for the complaint of one
individual. There were of course many
other boys who were treated in the
same manner. but made no complaint,
and even now are very reluctant to
say anything about the matter.
All the things perpetrated on this
occasion have been before, with the
addition, in certain years of ducking
in the pond and administering Of pat
ent medicine. Compulsory biting Of
soap has been known of before, and this
was the most outrageous act OF this
occasion. 1t is. however. no excuse
for the present offence that 1t has hap
pened before, and the matter will be
dealt with as severely as possible, as
it should have been dealt with several
years before, since no one knows to
what bounds students will 90 when
excited. Whether the jokes have no
more serious result than an hours in
convenience, as in this case, or result
in the loss of life and limb, "hazing'
must be and will be stopped in the Uni
versity Of Wyoming. A committee Of
the faculty has this morning investi-
gated both sides Of the matter. and
have definitely found who were the
"strappers" and "soapfeed-ers," and
they will probably be dealt with more
severely than those who were simply
spectators.
In regard to the future, there is no
question but that hereafter "hazing"
In any form will, by faculty law, be
punished by expulsion or immediate
suspension.
The present case is more din cult,
and the president and faculty will act
slowly, but with absolute Justice. On
one hand it must be remembered that
we have never had an absolute rule
on the subject which the students have
had to respect, and only mi student
has eve been punished for a similar
offence before this.
On the other hand 1t must be remem-
bered that, even in this case, 'haxing''
Is an offence against discipline, and
must therefore. even II the faculty be
~lenient in view of the circumstances,
be punished. This thing has happened
once too often.
1t is hoped that this full statement
will give everybody interested in the
matter An opportunity Of knowing
what is the truth. Everyone interest
ed may find further Information by
seeking 1t at the presidents once.
The university means to follow strict
lines Of discipline but those only which
are perfectly just.

$4,000 CASH.
Paid This Afternoon to the Owners Of
the Virginius.

This afternoon Mr.. Crysler and as
sOciates of Chicago paid over to Messrs.
Marriott, Hale and McCullagh of this
city the sum of 81 900 in cash. the
first payment on the Virginius lode, 10
Gated in the Keystone district. Ac-
cording to the terms of sale another
1000 will be paid to the owners on
February / and the last payment of a
similar figure will be made on April l.,
1897. making sl2. 900, the original pur-
chase price.
The deal is the most important made
near this city this year and means
much for the Keystone district.
\ bond was given to Mr.. Crysler on
the mine on the first day OF July last.
That gentleman at once took hold of
the property on a business-like basis.
Twelve experienced miners were put
to work and the development has since
been going on at a rapid rate. At the
will already have been expended in
opening up the claim. The shaft is
now down 12S feet and recent returns
show a big body of ore runnig S23 and
upwards to the ton. This is good
enough for anybody, and in the Vir-
giuiUs Mr.. Crysler and his friends be-
liovc they have one of the biggest
things in the country.
The deal is particularly important in
local mining circles from the fact that
il is the first cash deal to be made here
by the eastern mining men.

RECOVERED THE PROPERTY.
Mrs. E. ]. Bells Jewelry Found Near
the Pioneer Ditch.

The valuable jewelry lost by Mrs. E.
]. Bell last Friday has been recovered.
Last evening a man named Jones
went to the office of Sheriff Grant and
informed that official that he could lay
his hands on the missing valise pro-
vided the 500 reward offered was
forthcoming. On being assured that
he would get this without trouble,
Jones agreed to turn over the goods.
He said hal he picked up the satchel
near the Pioneer ditch about noon Mon
day.
On making ar examination Of the
contents OF the satchel 1t was claimed
that an old English gold watch was
missing. Whether this is a mistake or
not will not be determined until the ar
rival of Mr.. Bell from the country. In
the meantime the satchel and its con-
tents are being held al the Albany
bank for safe keeping.
Mr.. Bell is expected in the city this
evening and II everything is all right
the reward will be paid Mr.. Jones.

that our colored population would take
offense at the performance of last even
ing, regarding 1t as a %burlesque upon
their manners and customs. The Re-
publican does not share in this fear.
Our colored citizens themselves enjoy
very much representations of southern
scenes and customs and would no O
think of being offended at the per-
Torrance of last evening than they
would at a travelling troupe.
