damages sustained in hazing scrim-
mage at the Platteville Normal
school two years ago. The stud
ents alleged that Moses enlight-
ened the Lancaster high school
upon signals used by the Normal
football team to members of the
Lancaster high school team-the
game resulting in victory for the
latter, and the students mentioned
as defendants in the case above
were charged with having sub
iected Moses to treatment after the
game that wrought material in
jury. Through Attys. Bushnell
& Moses he brought suit for S., 600
against the defendants, and the
case was cited for trial at the
February term of last year, but
was continued. 1t came up Mon
day afternoon for trial, but before
jury was impanelled. The at
torneys for the defense, Cleary,
Kopp and Murphy proffered $500
to settle the case and it was ac-
copied on part of plaintiff. Costs
will also be borne by defendants,
amounting to about 800.
