So STRONG AND well-directed were
the shafts Of public sentiment in their
protests a2aingst the semi.civilized
practice of hazing at the West Point
Military Academy. that Congress has
passed the following bill against it,
and it is now hoped this relic o. bar
barism Wilde:
As agreed to, the hating paragraph
read as follows:
"That the superintendent of the
military academy shall make such
rules, to be approved by the secretary
Of war, as will effectually prevent the
practice of hazing; and any cadet
found guilty Of participating in or
encouraging or countenancing such
practice shall be summarily expelled
from the academy, and shall not
thereafter be reappointed to the
corps of cadets or be eligible to ap-
pointment as commissioned officer
in the army or navy"
The bill as amended was then
passed.

IT Is STATED that Lord Kitchener

nations resort TO such methods the
civilized people Of tho world ought to

it? No. Even the whited sepulchre
