stronger swimmer, was supporting Sawyer
in the water and assisting him to cling
to the frail canoe. Several boats were
manned and Immediately started to the
rescue, but before they got near the canoe
1nnesS started to swim ashore.
The submerged canoe was not strong
enough to hold up beth of them. and it
was plain that Inness left it fer his
friend, thinking he might reach the shere
or one Of the boats before his strength
gave out
He had not gone far, however, before
he sank, and did not rise again. Young
Sawyer, who was having much trouble
with the canoe, saw his friend drown
The shock was so great, or he was too
much exhausted to hold UP longer, that
his hands slipped, and he, too, went to
the bottom when the first boat that put
out to their aid was only few lengths
away
The body of Inness was recovered soon
after, but persistent search with Crap
ping irons thus far has failed to raise
that of Sawyer.
TO SAVE WIFE FROM SHOCK.
Mr.. Sawyer did not learn of the Gis-
tressing accident until Thursday, when
he was on his way to this city fro 10
Montclair He went back home, inform
ed his two daughters, then started for
Lakeville. Then he remembered his wife,
who was twenty-four hours on the sea,
and feared that the news when she reach
ed the other side would kill her If told
by any one except himself She had
been under the physicians care constant
ly because Of her weak heart, and 1t
was said any shock would prove fatal.
The distracted husband and bereaved
father Immediately telephoned to his
business partner Mr.. Blake and asked
him to go to Lakeville and aid in the
search for his boys body Then, with
out even having time to bid his daugh-
ters adieu, he caught a train for Jersey
City and was driven to the German line
pier.
Had the Deutschland sailed at her usual
hour he would have missed her, but she
was delayed, and it was said, on his &C.
count, a request having been sent to her
not to sail until the last moment possible
by the tide.
OFF TO EUROPE At ONCE.
She had cast off by the time he got
there, and he was the last man on board.
Mr.. Sawyer sailed without even a grip,
and wearing only his ordinary business
suit and oVercoat. The big liner lost no
time in heading down the river, and I'M
der the hand of an expert pilot cut Clip
down the bay preliminary to the real
work Of her long and swift race.
Though the Majestic, which carried
Mrs. Sawyer and her daughter, who are
all unaware Of the dreadful news from
home, had more than twenty-four hours
the start Of the Deutschland, the big
German liner has overhauled her The Ma
jestic, which is an eight-day boat, goes
to Liverpool, but the German liner first
touches at Plymouth.

REVOLT AT WEST POINT.

The condition Of affairs which the press
dispatches portray as existing at West
Point is a natural and inevitable outcome
of the practices tolerated by the admin
istration of the academy on part OF
the cadets in the past.
The record of brutality established
through .the recent congressional hazing
investigation shows that there existed
substantial INSTRUMENTATION on the part
of the inmates of the academy Receiv-
ing the liberation of the officers in
charge. as it palpably did, the practice
of hazing was never regarded as in E:ola-
ton of soldierly duty. Cnce it was put
an end to, and the men at West Point
themselves agreed to give UP it's practice,
the spirit which found expression in 1t
had to have an outlet The recent out
breaks are a natural result.
West Point is military establishment.
It's inmates being in a sense enlisted m n
are not in their personal sense of freedom
to be regarded as placed in the same
class as the students in civil institutions.
Conduct which in an ordinary edS1ca-
tional institution might be rightfully re-
sarsed as the product Of excess of ami
mai spirits on the part of the students
comes within the es,gnation of insubor-
dination. to be dealt with by court-mar-
+iol The revolt now under in

that represented by hazing operations.
THE only real interest which it possesses
will he found in the answer which it's re-
sIlt offers to the inquiry whether those
in charge of West Point can enforce COM
plete and absolute obedience among the
cadets They showed their inability 10
do ca while the hazing evils existed 1t
remains now to be seen whether those
having been brought to an end, the Us
,,osi+ion toward INSTRUMENTATION which
+bev EXPRESSED can be kept under control.
The history of the United States MIL
itary academy is one which, all Things
considered, there is ample reason on the
nor+ of the American people for being
proud OF. It's graduates have all in all
done greater and more enduring service
to the country than those of any civil
educational institution Their opportu-
mites have been greater, but for their
realization greater sacrifices have also
been needed In the conduct of civil
business the American officer has always
shown himself to be a man of honor
who is most amenable to the influences
which cause the civilian to engage In
transactions which are disgraceful in
themselves, but which the general desire
for wealth causes men to often close their
eyes to the true. character Of If the
present administration of West Point is
not able to maintain proper discipline
among those in their charge it is time
