END OF THE BOOB INQUIRY.
Hnzing EXISTED to DepIOrabIe Extent,
Says Military Court, but Nobody
Is Guilty.

Washington, April 1.-The findings of
the military court of inquiry which inves-
tigated the treatment alleged to have
been accorded to the late Oscar L. Booz,
a former cadet at the West Point Mill
tary Academy, have been made public at
the War Department.
The findings of the military court are
summed up in letter written by Seere-
tary Root, which accompanies the report.
This letter says:
THE findings of this court of inquiry,
which are sustained by the evidence,
show that the statements which led to
the converting of the court, to the effect
that former Cadet Oscar L. Booz came to
his death by reason of injuries received
by hazing at the Academy were not true.
They show that at the time Cadet Booz
was member of the Academy hazing
was prevalent there to a deplorable ex-
tent; that the present officers of the
Academy have shown commendable en-
ergy, zeal and efficiency in detecting and
Furnishing offenses of this character, and
that they greatly decreased the practice
and improved the public sentiment among
the cadets upon the subject The testi-
mony and findings of the cDurt were plac-
ed in the hands of the committee of Con-
gress charged at about the same time
with the investigation of the subject and
the very efficient and beneficial action of
that committee, followed by the legisla-
ton upon the subject contained in the act
of March 2 1901, renders further action
by the department unnecessary"

Rabbit Bounty.

Nafnpa Leader
The farmers of Canyon county
are determined, if there is any thing
in the weight of petition, to have
that rabbit bounty. Petitions are
now being circulated all over the
country and numerously signed.
The one in this immediate vicinity
has about 800 names subscribed
Those interested wishing to push the
matter as quickly as possible, have
requested the Leader to keep one of
these petitions at the Office for the
convenience of those who wish to
sign and we have gladly consented
to do SO. There is no one in the
county but what realizes that this
rabbit nuisance must be done away
with, and the bounty method seems
to be the best one that can be de-
vised. On another page of this
issue will be seen an article from the
Montpelier Examiner telling how
the people of Bear Lake got rid of
squirrels in this way
Steps should also be taken to get
neigbbOring counties to offer a
similar bounty. If this were done
there is but little doubt hut that this
section of the country would soon be
rid of the rabbit pest.

Professor Arthur l.. GiIlett In The
Sunday School Times earnestly urges
that every large Christian church
should have a thoroughly trained teach
er rs we'll as preacher. He would
thus specialize the organization of the
teaching function of the church, plac-
ing the teacher side by side with the
pastor. The need Of Improvement In
Sunday school instruction In many
churches Is becoming more generally
recognized and gives impetus to a
movement which Is attracting more
support and approval every year. This
movement finds expression In the b.
BILE Normal college In Springfield. Mass.
which Is to be AFFILIATED with the Theo-
logical seminary In Hartford. The lat
ter Is open to women who Wish to quail
ify themselves for paIochial teaching.
