WAS CHARGED WITH HAzING
And Fearing Court Martial He Left
School-Says School is Facing
Crisis Of It's History.

Fearing rigid court martial on
nine different charges of hazing,
Chase FL. Nichols, of Winchester,
an appointee to Annapolis from the
Eighth Congressional District re-
signed from the Naval Academy and
passed through here last night en-
route home.
Nichols is we'll known in this city
and was formerly member of the
Winchester High School foot ball
team, which often played here. He
has been at the Naval Academy for
over two years and ranked high in
his classes. Since the recent expo
sures in the hazing Investigations,
he says that about thirty of the ca
diets have rendered their resignation
and more are leaving each day.
Nichols heard from a ranking off
Ger that nine charges had been fled
against him and would soon be made
public. Immediately he resigned
and left the Academy, with three
others who have become disgusted
with the work of the authorities in
attempting to do away with the prac-
tice in the way they are. Nichols
says that affairs are in the worst
possible condition at Annapolis and
dissatisfaction is manifest on every
side. The most popular men in the
Academy have been officially dis
graced and expelled from the insti-
tuition and those who have at any
time even sent an under-classman on
an errand, are now shaking in their
shoes for fear that it will be brought
up against them in the court martial
proceedings. About twenty have al
ready been dismissed and if the
"killing' keeps up, there will soon
be no upper classmen.
Nichols said that John Gray, from
indianapolis, is also under the .suspi-
cion of the authorities and is liable
at any time to be brought before the
investigating body for trial on a
charge of hazing. Others are in the
same boat and unless there is stop
put to the dismissals, the naval SER
vice will be crippled for years to
come.

STOLE HORSE AND BUGGY

w. B. Ball, good looking young
man of about 80 years went into
] Frank Marson's store last evening
and offered for sale a good horse
blanket saying that he wanted to get
to Connersville with his wife and
giving hard luck story about being
far from home and broke. He wanted
to get So for the blanket and Mr..
Marson thinking that there was
something suspicious in his actions,
called up Marshall Ulrich, who i'm
mediately came and took the couple
in charge.
Under close questioning the man
refused to say word, but his wife
finally broke down and told the au-
thorities Of how they had stolen the
rig from Charles Harmon, of Ander-
son and had driven to Cambridge
City. The man was taken to the Jail
and his wife is at the Caldwell hotel.
They are from Middletown as they
were recognized by young woman
from that place who is visiting in
Cambridge City. The woman seemed
considerably worried about a child
which had been left behind.

and against such procedure, the stu

A short time ago twenty one stu
dents pledged themselves, in order
to keep their places in the dormitory,
to follow iron clad rules, in short to

them to walk These twenty one

Earlham students are noted for
their high sense of honor. The col

against "hazing' or anything that

not want to break their word, maybe
even more, they don't want to break

What will happen?
If any other clique has the nerve,

support of the twenty one. If they
have not will Christian escape.
Maybe he will, maybe he won't.
The situation is interesting to fol-

happened) the twenty one may do

CITY BOARD PUBLIC WORKS
Will Widen and Improve II Street at
Once However Met With Coun-
ty Commissioners.

The Board of Public Works met
yesterday afternoon with the County
Commissioners and the project of
placing bridge over the Whitewater
cussed.
Much to the surprise of the
city officials the commissioners in
formed them that the bridge would
not be built for at least year, per-
haps two years.
Although this is discouraging news
for the residents of the South End,
who have petitioned several times
through the South Side Improve
ment Association for a bridge, the
Board of Public Works intends to
balm their injured feelings by great
ly improving South III street, max
ing it a splendid thoroughfare and
an ideal place to locate the bridge
when it is built.
South H street is now one of the
narrowest streets in the city, being
only so feet wide. The Board will
widen the street feet on each side
and macadamize it. The commission
ers together with the Board of Public
Works inspected South H street yes
terday and the county officials ex-
pressed their opinion that it would
be a splendid place to locate the
bridge-but that was all they said.
The reason the commissioners wish
to delay building the bridge is be-
cause they have just secured a levy
for such a purpose and they want it
to accumulate before any such pro-
.ject is decided on. The commission
ers state that to build the bridge now
would necessitate the borrowing of
money by the county or bond issue
and the commissioners and the coun-
ty council will not sanction either
action. When the bridge is built it
will no doubt be a concrete one, cost
ing in the neighborhood of 100000

Smith and without waiting for ques-
tions, began blurting out his story,
of how he had left the farm to ego
to war;"
A love affair, with another young
man in the neighborhood who had at
fractions which appealed to partic-
ular young woman, had caused his
leaving home. She had mistreated
him and when they were almost to
be married, had gone to dance with
the rival. Life would never again
hold the fullness of joy for him; he
would hunt reputation in another
land. Tears were in his eyes as he
told his pitiful tale and the Sergeant
accustomed to such things, sympa-
thized with him and told him the
army would be glad to welcome him.
The young man went away and
was to be back the following day for

FOR RAILROAD LEGISLATION
He is Working For an Early Ad-
journment Of Congress-Wiu
Rap" Tobacco Trust.

Congressman James Z. Watson has
returned from Washington to his
home at Rushville where he will as
sist in the defense Of Mrs. Anna
Bankert, whose trial begins there
Friday. After the trial, he will re-
main in Indiana until the Congress
sional Convention.
In speaking of his stand on many
questions of national consequence,
Mr.. Watson said:
u am in favor Of taking rest as
far as naval appropriations are con-
cerned and | am opposed to author
izing the building of any more bat
tfeships at this session or to any lar
ger expenditure for navy than is alb
solutely necessary to maintain it."
Mr.. Watson formerly was mem
Der of the committee on naval af-
fairs. He is opposing the naval ap-
preparation bill for the reason that
he believes the six battleships and
five cruisers, now under construction
are sufficient for present needs.
"Why, we haven't officers enough
now,'' he said, "to man what ships
we have, let alone more. We are
grinding out a double quota of Off
GERS at Annapolis now.'
Mr.. Watson says the railroad rate
bill will undoubtedly pass the House.
"We are a unit on that question"
he said, and his eyes twinkled as it
was suggested that the abolition of
passes was behind the "unity." 81
did not think enough about it to ask
about it just before I came away.
We have had some frightful fights
in the House, though. The campaigns
of the various bills have been terrific,
and have worked pretty hard.
"The President is firm for rate
legislation. He is not trying to die
tate to Congress what it shall do or
not do regarding railroad rate legis-
lation or any other problems Of leg
islation. Oftentimes he calls Con-
gressmen to the White House and off
ers suggestions, but he does not at
tempt any browbeating as has been
reported. The President stands with
the House organization and is loyal
to the House He has often boasted
of his loyalty to the House and he
has repeated to me, many times, you
know, Watson, want to follow the
House. / have waited on the House
and I am not inclined to force it. to

Boiling or Cooking in Any Form De-
stroys Germ Life.
A pure water supply is rightly look
ed upon as one of the greatest essen
tails to the he%althfulness of a COM
munity. Many foods, salads, for exam
pie, cannot be cooked, or subjected to
the effect of a high temperature,
while, on the other hand, washing
them in infected water may render
them the means of conveying disease.
Among the chief ways of preventing
typhoid fever must be mentioned the
care Of the stomach itself. IT seems
highly probable that the natural juices
OF the healthy stomach are able to des-
troy many germs of disease; but the
number which any stomach may be
able to digest must always be uncer-
tain, and it is not desirable to test
its capacity in this direction. The fact
that only certain persons out Of a num-
Der. who have partaken of food or
drink infected with disease germs may
suffer is explainable on the ground of
their different general physical condi-
ton, or of the varying stages Of their
digestive organs. Boiling or cooking
in any form destroys all germ life;
and food or drink about. which there is
a question of typhoid infection should
be subjected to one Of these processes
before it is taken into the stomach
