Helped Themselves.

A couple of white men in Poplar
vile drove wagon up to the back
door of one of the principal stores
and loaded it with provisions of ALL
kinds, and then quietly drove off.
The proprietor and all the clerks
were looking on, and each presumed
that the other had sold the bill, and
were congratulating themselves on a
big days business. After the wagon
drove off a consultation was held,
when it was discovered that the men
had simply helped themselves, with
out going through the formality OF
paying for anything. They deserved
a chrome for their boldness, but in
stead were caught and sent to the
county farm.-Brookhsven Leader.

EXPULSION FOR HAZING IS
OPPOSED BY REPORT.
Report Shows That 28I Cadets Are
Guilty of Hazing, and to Expel

Washington, D. Cite sub-com-

tee would on naval affairs to inves-
tigate hazing at Annapolis, Md, de-
livered its report of the whole COM
mittee today through Representative
Vreeland, of New York. chairman OF

Rear Admiral Brownson is censur-
ed in the report for exacting a pledge
from midshipmen not to engage in
hazing, and for allowing the boys
to think the pledge was personal to
them, and did not hold after Rear
Admiral Sands bbecame superintend-
ent at Annapolis Lieut.. c. P. Sny-
der is also censured mildly for hav-
ing countenanced hazing.
Graduated punishment for hazing
is recommended by the sub-commit-
tee, which is firmly of the opinion
that expelling all midshipmen found
guilty of hazing is vicious.

officers have been chiefly responsible
for hazing.
AS a result Of its examination of
witnesses and records, the sub-com-
mittee found that 28I members of the
three upper classes at the academy,
including the class which was recent
ly graduated, have been guilty of
hazing, and on TRIAL could be ex-
PEELED. The result would be great
and unnecessary loss to the govern
ment, in the opinion of the members
of the committee, who found that
many of the offenses were trivial.
The investigation of the committee
shows that there are three forms OF
hazing at Annapolis = physical haz-
ing, running and tagging. They are
described at length in the report.
The physical hazing consists OF
fighting, compelling midshipmen to
stand on their heads and other much
discussed means of punishment.
Tagging is the forcing of under
classmen to do mental service for
upper classmen.
Running is the forcing of under
classmen t. do ridiculous feats. One
of the most popular performances
under this classification was giving
an exact imitation of sunrise on the
farm, which consisted of initiating
roosters and other domestic fowls.
Under the forms of physical haz-
ing, sitting on inhnity was one OF the
most common practiced. 1t was gem
orally practiced at meal time, and
was the forcing of a midshipman to
maintain a sitting posture after his
chair was withdrawn from under
him. Cadet officers tolerated all such
practices, and, in fact, encouraged
them, according to the report OF the
Subcommittee.
Forcing the youngsters to do such
things was one of the most cherished
rights of the first class men entrust-
ed with maintaining discipline.

The communication from the department of finance relative to a special appropriation of $25.O00 was read and favorably reported to the aldermen.

PIGEONS CAUSE FIRE.
Blaze in an Attic Call Bremen t.
 Brooklyn District.

The fire department was called to 49 Summit street this morning, where blaze had started in the attic and was fast working its way into the roof. The building is owned by Michael Skistimas, who lives on the first floor, and the other tenement Is occupied by Antonia Anderson and family, who keep pigeons in the attic. Just how the fire started is not known, but in any case 1t got well under way before it was noticed and when the department arrived and went to work on it the boys found 1t tenanted by pigeons. a large num- Der of which were suffocated by smoke and cooked just right for use. A dozen of squads were among the dead and dying members of the feathered family. The owner of the birds was not at home and this rem dered it all the more difficult to get a line on the origin of the blaze. but 1t is surmised that in their work of building the pigeons picked up a match or two and in time they came in contact with something and start ed to burn. The damage will amount to about $200 or $500.
