g. w. Cannon, farmer from Blue
Springs, Mo-, had a chilly experience
with footpads in Kansas the other
night. While he was crossing the Santa
Fe yards at Nineteenth and Liberty
streets three men stood him up between
two lines of freight cars and literally
stripped him. When the robbers de-
parted Mr.. Cannon was left with just
two pieces of underwear, even his stock
ings having been taken. He ran bare
footed through the deep snow to a
Ewitchman's shanty in the yards.
There he was given pair Of overshoes,
and at neighboring saloon he was
given clothing enough to permit of his
going to police station to tell his trou-
bles. The robbers secured $3s in
money!

One of the favorite methods of correc-

ring let into a wall or high post, and one

The pain caused in this way is said to have

In the whole history of military punish
ments flogging takes the first place. Its
earliest form was known as running the
gantlet." The offender was stripped naked
to the waist and riven slowly through the
ranks of his regiment, each man of whom
had been armed with a stout rattan. In
front of the prisoner marched a file Of the
guard, stepping slowly backward and

of bleeding scars.
For grave offenses, such as mutiny or de-
