BURNED IN ERRIGY.
Students of Seminary Show
Their Feelings Toward
Preceptress.

stringent Rules In Regard to Social
Intercourse cause Trouble Miss
Post Greeted her Friends rs Usual,
And Had to Leave-Boy Expelled for
Like OfFense.
Reports from the West Virginia
Conference Seminary at Buckhannon
are to the effect that the precepters
who has charge of the dormitory for
ladies there was burned In efilgy a
few nights ago by the students. Sew
eral parties have been expelled, or sus-
pended, and excitement is high.
The trouble all arose out OF the
stringent rules adopted by the faculty
In regard to the social intercourse be-
tween the men and women OF the school
These rules were so severe, IL is said,
that they were forbidden speaking To
one another on the campus.
A Miss Post, sister of Lee Post. who
is well-known here, was expelled, 1t is
said, because she spoke to friend be-
longing TO the masculine portion OF
humanity. The story goes that Miss
Post served notice on the faculty when
the rules were made that she would
conduct herself as lady, but would
not refuse to speak to her friends, nc
matter OF which sex. When the test
came she carried out her declaration.
Then came the summons before the
faculty. According to the story, Miss
Post left school at the instance OF
some member Of her family before the
order OF expulsion came.
1t is also stated that young man
who offended against the rules by adj
dressing one OF the fair sex wa J expell-
ed.
These acts have caused the greatest
Indignation on the part OF the stu
dents, and this has been partly ex-
pressed in burning the preceptors Ia
effigy.
There are large number OF stu
dents here attending the University,
and they take great deal Of interest
10 the affair.
An appeal has been made to the
conference to have the laws changed.

tempted to get away in the night with
their plunder, but the foreman OF the
gang was too much on the alert and
nailed them. Quickly 1t was decided
what the punishment should be. 1t
was twenty stripes each. The negroes
were led to place where their yells
would disturb only the solitary owl,
then the castigation commenced.
Able arms applied the lash, and when
the job was complete the thieves were
told to hunt the turnpike and follow
