Cadet BOOz Is Dend.

PHILADELPHIA Dec. 4.-Oscar L.
Booz, former cadet at West Point Mill
tary academy, who had been lying at tn
point of death at his home in Bristol,
Pa, suffering from injuries which mis-
parents claim were the result of haz-
ing at the academy over two years ago,
died yesterday in great agony. The
cause of death was throat consumption.
Booz was appointed a cadet by Congress-
man Wanger of the Seventh Pennsylva-
mia district and it is alleged by the
young mans father that tabasco sauce
was poured down his throat while the
cadets were hazing him. The father
also claims that red pepper was thrown
in his eyes, hot grease poured on his
bare feet, a tooth knocked out and 9TH
er fendish tortures INDUCED in Short
ly after this, the father says, Oscar, be-
cause of his physical condition, was COM
PEELED to resign his cadetship. The young
man steadily grew worse, but never
would divulge the names of the cadets
who i'll treated him.

New Jersey Woman Compelled .
Railway to Give Her
Special Train.

Miss Rose Heritage, of Gloucester
City, n. j., is probably The only
woman in the country who has ever
dictated to big railway corporation
and, perhaps, the only woman who
has ever had the distinction of rids
ing on a special train all her own. A
Few days ago Miss Heritage went to
aisit Mrs. William Sayer, of Clayton.
She took an evening train ON the
West Jersey and Seashore railroad
for her home The train had been
delayed by a slight accident and was
over an hour late. After getting
aboard the conductor informed her
that she would have to change cars
at Glassboro, as his train did not stop
at Gloucester. and she could take the
next train in from there.
Miss Heritage protested. but final
ly yielded, and, after waiting till
nearly ten o'clock. she inquired OF
the operator at the station when the
next train would arrive. She was
told that the train had left before
she stopped, owing to the lateness Of
her train. She insisted that he tele-
graph for an express to stop for her,
but this was refused, the officials
saying she could go to hotel at the
company's expense and leave for
home in the morning
Miss Heritage's mother was i'll at
home and she was anxious to move,
so she refused. saying the company
was responsible for her being put Off
and they would have to take her to
Gloucester. After some further con-
troversy Miss Heritage was told to
wait few minutes. and in short
time an engine and car pulled up.
She got aboard and in 10 minutes she
was landed in Gloucester and in a
few minutes was at her mothers bed
side.

LIVES IN A SANDY DESERT.
The Cactus Requires No Water TO sus-
tain II In Verdant splsn-
dor.

A recent writer has described the
cactus as "the vegetable camel of the
desert" This plant can not only go
for months without water, but at the
end of the period is capable of fur
nishing cupful of refreshing fluid
from it's roots. Similarly the kurra-
jong and ,"supplejack" of the dry dis
tricts of Australia can remain alive
without water for periods sometimes
measured by years, and the former,
even under such conditions, is said to
sprout afresh although every branch
is cut off. In the account of the voy-
age of Lord Macarsney's embassy to
China there is an interesting account
of the plants which fiourishea through
a drought of three years on one of the
Cape Verde islands, at which the ex-
petition called. Among those espe-
cially named as surviving are certain
species of palms. including the boras.
sus, the asclepias gigantea, the phys
ic-nut tree, the sugar apple tree and
certain kinds of mimosa. Cultivated
plants, such as corn, sugar canes and
plantains, are stated to have been to-
tally destroyed during the same pc.

Singing Rebuks 10 Jury That Had
Reached an Outrageous
Verdict.

No member OF the Massachu-
sets bar stood higher than the late
Harry ". Paine. He was absolutely
fearless. and occasionally trampled
upon the traditions OF the courts with
the utmost recklessness. On one &C.
casion he was defending charity
case in which boy of Is was CHARGED
with arson. He made a strong case
to prove the defendant an idiot.
After charge from the judge. which
was practically an order for acquittal,
the jury brought in veruict of
guilty. The judge asked Paine il he
would move for new trial. II thank
You for your suggestion" was the an
swer, but | am oppressed with the
gravest doubts whether ] have the
right to move for a new trial Your
honor, | have already asked fer and
received for my idiot client the most
precious heritage of our English and
American common lava trial by a
jury Of his peers"
Paine had an old quarrel with. the
supreme court, and never lost an op.
portunity of showing his contempt for
that body. Once. riding from Boston
to Cambridge with load of law
books. he was accosted by young
Harvard man with the remark: You
have quite load. Mr. Paine. Law
books, | suppose?" "Oh, no." was the
answer, "only supreme court reports"
