Bucksport has taken a little band in

at West Point military academy and has
extended from one ead OF the country TO
the other. The hezing story in Bucks

INDUCED in the rash luxury OF beard.
Notice WAS served demanding It's re-
movai, which being ignored, caused Il
visit to his room of nearly scofe Of
would be tonsoriai artists. The man
with the hirsute sdornment, however,
did not submit quietly 70 the proposed
surgical operation, and with the assist
anee OF his room mate, came off victo-
rious. The matter reached the ears OF
the faculty, and there was trouble. One
student Was suspended, aud twenty
others threatened to leave in sympathy.
The same gentle breezes which toyed
with the victorious whiskers, however,
soothed the wounded feelings of the
student BARRIERS, and when the seminary
opened Monday all but three were back
