BADGER STUDENTS DUCK
BELLIGERENT FRESHMAN

. MADISON, Wis. Oct 9.-Joseph
Buchanan of Theresa, Wis, a freshman
student, was thrown into the lake by
the sophomores in broad daylight yes
terday. He pulled a gun on crowd
of the second-year men who wanted to
haze him the other night, and the
sophs then told him his time would
come
They met on the hill yesterday and
went to the mans room. They march,
ed him in the most open manner pos
sible through the principal streets OF
the Latin quarter and tossed him into
the lake three times. Then they al
lowed him to swim ashore and go
home.
So far the efforts to stop hazing
have been without avail, things be-
coming worse each night since the ad-
dress of President Van Hise asking
for moderation.

and heavily masked, produced quart
bottle of whisky and commanded Hite
on pain of death to drink it. Hite at
tempted to refuse, but the sight of
four drawn revolvers was too much
for his courage and finally he complied.
He was piled with the whisky until
all of it was gone, when he was in a
state of intoxication. Then his cap
tors returned him to the side of a
road where they left him with plac-
ard upon his breast reading. Have
one on me-" and the whisky bottle
by his side.
Hite was found by friends and TAX
en- home and cared for, but the morti-
fication caused by the act of the kdi-
narers preyed upon his mind to such
an extent that this is given in the
note he left as the reason for his
wishing to end his existence. Although
thorough investigation of the outrage
has been made, none of the culpr1ts
has been discovered.

TWO CRUSHED BY LOG
Fearful Fate Overtakes Little Boys
Near CamdS.
DEATH COMES WITHOUT WARhlN6
ACCIDENT OCCURS WHILE AN
OTHER BROTHER PLAYFUL
LY CUTS LOG.

CANVAS, Ore, Oct. 9.-Pinned under
a great log for more than Is minutes,
Willie Brundage, aged II years, and
his 6-year-old brother Irald were
crushed to death near this place Sat
urday.
Desiring some firewood, the three
little Brundage boys, sons of John
Brundage, an employe of the milling
company here, started out to saw up
some logs on their home ranch about
mile east of Camas, this afternoon.
Willie and Harold, the latter mite of
s years, took hold of a crosscut saw
and were soon working merrily. In a
spirit of fun, little Irald climbed upon
the log which they were working upon
and gleefully watched his brothers at
work The little woodsmen sawed
sturdily and soon had cut through the
log. The log parted and the halves
commenced to roll down a slight in
cline.
With cry of agony little Irald, who
had been. too slow in jumping from
the moving log, was crushed to a pulp
by the heavy wood. His older brother,
Willie, was also unable to make his
escape from the path of the fallen
monster of the forest and suffered a
similar fate. Harold the more for
tunate, succeeded in reaching a place
of safety, saw his brothers lives
ground out, powerless to do aught to
aid them.
Seeing the mangled bodies were SOL
idly pinioned beneath the log, Harold
rushed to the house of a neighbor to
secure aid. After fully Is minutes he
returned with men, who rolled the log
off the remains of the little boys. The
rescue came too late, however, as
both children were dead when their
bodies were released.

seek MURDERERs OF SON
Father Of Carey Snyder Expected
at Hl|sb0ro.
DoT|Ne PARENT WILL INVESTIGATE
ELEMENT OF PATHOS IN DEATH
OF BOY FOUND NEAR
HILLSBORO.

HILLSBORO, Ore, Oct. 9.-Either
r. M. Snyder, father of the prodigal
youth who was murdered near this
place last December, or his represen-
tative is expected to arrive here soon
The father will take charge Of the
remains, which will likely be shipped
to Kansas City for burial.
There is an element of patnos about
the old man, father Of Carey M. Sny-
der, the mystery of whose disappear
ance has been deepened by the finding
of his body, bearing tell-tale marks
of murder. The hayward boy was the
remaining son, IF the doting father.
Another son, younger than the MUIR
dered youth. also met a tragic end.
r. M. Snyder is a wealthy resident
of Kansas City and is said to nave
spent a fortune in protecting his err
ing son from shame ana disgrace of
punishment for his crimes. Finally,
in order to save his family from fur
tner disgrace at the hands of the son
the father bought him a ranch near
here.
There was another son in the Sny-
der family, and on him the father
built his hopes. He is said to have
been an exceptionally promising lad
and would be Is years of age if he
had lived But year ago, while cross
ing a street in Kansas City, he was
struck by a car, sustaining injuries
which resulted in his death in a hos
pital a short time later.
The newspapers had long accounts
of the accident and among the eeffcts
of Cary M. Snyder, when his BODY
was found last Monday, was a clipping
from one Of the papers. 1t gave a de-
tailed account of the death of his
brother.
1t is said that the father of the
murdered youth will save no expense
or time to run down those who took
the life of his remaining son.

Temperance Worker Forced to Drink
by Enemies, Kills Himself.
JESUP IOWA, Oct. 9.-Going to the
barn to attend milking, the wife of
Will Hite, a prosperous young farmer
living near here, was Mortified to run
against the dead body of her husband
suspended from a rope. The body
was still warm, but in spite Of all
efforts made it was found impossible
to resuscitate him.
A letter left by Hite apparently re-
veals the cause for his act. He had
been prominent in temperance corcles
and was an ardent member Of the
Anti Saloon league, having taken part
in many raids upon illegal saloons and
been instrumental in closing up a
number of such places. Recently Hite
was waylaid in a lonely spot, blind
folded and taken into the woods. Here

PULLMAN, WASH, Oct 9-Teh
State College of Washington, located
here opened, it's doors recently at the
beginning of it's sixteenth year. The
enrolment for the first two or three
days reached almost $50, by far the
largest number of students ever en-
rolling in a similar period. A large
number of new ones are coming in
daily still. Last year the total enroll
ment was 1879, and it is expected that
this year that number will be increas-
ed to over 1900. The standing that
this great educational institution has
attained, not only throughout this
state but also in other states, is we'll
attested by the fact that practically
every county Of Washington, Oregon,
Idaho, North Dakota, Montana, Kan
sas, Iowa, British Columbit and Japan
are represented by stunedts. Among
the counties sending the largest num-
Der are Spokane, Yakima, Klicgitat,
King, Lincoln and Whitman.

FIRST WIFE BECOMES FIFTH
Woman Remarked to Husband Of Her
Youth-Three in Between

PORTAGE, Wis, Oct. "a romance
of more than ordinary interest was
concealed in a marriage record here
Wednesday. Joseph Waldo of Missouri
and Mrs. Martha Kennedy of Endeavor
were the contracting parties, and this
was their second appearance at the
altar together.
When they were younger they met,
loved, married and reared a family.
Mr. Waldo did not prosper and after
several years of married life Mrs.
Waldo concluded that she could do
better alone There was no quarrel
and no differences, other than the
financial one, between the couple and
when the separation took place Mrs.
Waldo accompanied her husband to
the station and kissed him goodbye.
Then she obtained a divorce.
After trial of single blessedness
Msr. Waldo concluded that condition
of life was not as satisfactory as she
had anticipated, and married again.
Being left a widow, she married a
third time and fourth time, the pres
ent marriage to her first husband be-
ing her fifth matrimonial venture.
Mr. Waldo in the years that have
elapsed since his separation seems to
have found no woman who could take
the place in his affections occupied by
the first Mrs. Waldo, and having ac-
cumulated in the meantime snug lit
tie fortune, he sought out his first
love, again wooed her and led her to
the altar for the second time.
