One Of the most humorous experiences related
during the day was the part taken by Rigoy u.
Valiant in what he called a rat funeral. III
was a mock burial ceremony held over the body
of rat which the upper class men torceu 'ie

service he read was some of the regulations
what do you mean by the black book ?"
General Brooke asked in a stern tone
''The book Of regulations Of the United states
Military Academy" Valiant answered without
moving a muscle Of his face
More than once during the day the answers
given bv the cadets TO the questions seemed to
imply that they could not subdue their pro-
pensity for fun even in the august presence OF
the Court, and were bent upon taking rise
out of the body investigating them when
Charles Eby was on the stand he was asked II
cadets had ever tainted under the exhausting
effects Of exercising.
HE HAD REASON TO KNOW.
Il have never known them TO faint, but have
known them to feign fainting," ne replied. For
some time he was questioned as TO his ability 10
distinguish between real and sham fainting. and
was asked 10 describe the symptoms in both
cases. After while ne was asked IL he knew
positively Of a case where man had pretended
to faint He replied that he did
What exercise was given TO the manF
He was doing eagles that is, moving up
and Gown on his toes" Valiant responded.
And YOU say that he pretended TO faint?'
Yes, sir
Please tell the Court how you knew that this
was a pretended faint, he was Instructed
somewhat sharply.
We'll, sir" Valiant answered in so serious
tone as to effectually protect him from rebuke,
Il was the fellow who did the feignng.
Tt was frankly admitted by the cadets that
although exercising had been abolished. "brac-
ing" still existed. despite the fact that it was
prohibited by the authorities Of the Academy.
Ii was brought out in evidence that upper class
men had been severely punished for "bracing,
nd that il was only practised out Of sight or
the officers The cadets Joined in declaring
that they did not consider "bracing' as haz-
ing but as a drill to give the "plebes a MILL
tary carriage
BENJAMIN T. Miller surprised the Court ny
telling them that he had never been haZed
Il was not hazed" he said, because l came
from Annapolis, and I was supposed 10 nave
gone through it all there
The court adjourned until $50 o'clock to-Inor-
row morning.

WELL AS GERMAN SINGERS.
President Guggenheimer of the Council yester-
day appointed a committee, consisting of Council
men Sulzer, Wise. Hottenroth, Doyle and LEIGH to
make arrangements for possible celebration on
New Years Day at the City Hall. The committee
will meet this morning in the Council Chamber and
prepare plans for celebration.
Mr.. Sulzer said yesterday that in case the Board
Of Aldermen passed the appropriation OF $500 for
the expenses OF the celebration. 1t would be prob
able that there would be bands OF music bombs
and a quantity OF colored fire. There would also be
a number of bombs OF the largest pattern. about
twenty in number. but there would not be a dis
play OF ordinary fireworks or set pieces. These lat
ter, it conceded, were used for every eonceiv-
able occasion. and. therefore, should be eliminated
from the display.
Another feature which Mr.. SulZer promises is
that he will secure a great number of members OF
the German singing societies in the city TO come
and sing choruses. He expects TO have at least Ave
hundred present.
