Guilty of Unconscious Profanity.

A leading football player Of few
years ago, who is now in business
in this city, was as careful OF his
conduct off the field as he was ag-
gressiye on the field He was captain
of the eleven in his senior year and
his friends were shocked more than
once at the vigorous supply Of pro
family that he turned on in the foot
ball practice when things did not go
to suit him. Finally he was requested
by the faculty to side track the swear
ing. He was amazed at this action
on the faculty's part, for he declared
that he was utterly unconscious of
the fact that he had offened. His
character was such as to leave no
doubt that he spoke the truth. Even
after the faculty warning he some
times broke out.-New York Sun.
