SIMPLE

AMERICA

In spite Of al appearances to inc
contrary both by tradition and by

feels chat if she should escape from

eratiye force. tho scepter would de.
mart from her. She takes account ot
The fact that young and powerful ma

Her best traditions. and The best Of
her sons today put faith in the power
Of simplicity while her peculiar

i1 addition, the education Of her youth
rests upon principles and methods that
inspire tho mind with dislain for
vanities and sophisticated pleasures.

MOST OF MIDDIES INVOLVED

Washington, March 1.-THE sub
rommittee named by the house COM
mittee on naval affairs to Investigate
hazing at Annapolis. made its report
20 the whole committee through Rep
rcsentative Vreeland. of New York,
chairman of the investigating commit
tee.
Rear Admiral Brownson is censured
In the report for exacting pledge
from midshipmen not to engage In haz-
ing and for allowing the boys TO think
the pledge was personal to him and
did not hold after Rear Admiral Sands
became superintendent at Annapolis.
Lieutenant c. =. Snyder is also CEN
surcd mildly for having countenanced
haZing.
Graduated punishment for hazing is
recommended by the subcommittee,
which Is firmly of the opinion that
the present system of expelling all mid
shlpmen found guilty OF hazing Is vi
cious Rear Admiral Sands and other
officers now nj the academy are praised
for the discipline they are maintain
ing. and the report shows that cadet
officers have been chiefly responsible
for hazing.
As result OF its examination OF
witnesses and records the sub-commit-
tee found that PSI members of the
three upper classes nj the academy. in
GLIDING the class which was recently

and on trial could be expelled from the
academy 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
showed there are three forms of haz-
ing nj Annapolls-physical hazing
running and tagging. They are de-
fined AT length in the report
The physical hazing consists OF fight

on their hands, and other much dis
cussed means of punishment Tagging

mental service for upper classmen.
such as backing shoes and serving
meals. Running Is the forcing of I'M
der classmen to 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 ROSTERS
and other domestic fowl.
Under the forms of physical hazing.
sitting on lnfinity was one of the most
commonly practiced. II was generally
practiccd al meal time. and was the
forcing Of midshipman TO maintain
n sitting posture after his chair was
withdrawn from under him.

Protest Against Pure Food Bill.

Washington. March l5.-Represen-
tative Martlett OF Georgia. filed the
report OF the minority OF the house
committee on interstate and foreign
commerce against the pure food bill.
Opposition to the measure is based on
the opinion that the federal govern
ment has no right TO assume the regu.
lation of the sale and branding Of food.
which is held by the minority to be es-
sentially within the police powers OF
the states. The report states that the
dissenting members favor laws against
the sale Of impure and adulterated
foods. but believe such laws should be
made by the various states.

THE ACKNOWLEDGMENT souv
Much-T aIked-of Fight Proved a Very
Tame Affair.

FNhosNs
PHILADELPHIA. March l5.-"Battiing"
Nelson had the advantage of Terry
McGOvern in their six-round bout.
which took place at the National Attn
letic Club. For the first three rounds
the fight was disappointment to the
5000 persons who had lid fancy prices
to witness the bout There were
scarcely half a dozen solid blows
struck. the men wrestling from one
end of the ring to the other. with the
referee powerless to separate them. II
had been agreed that the referee was
not to lay his hands on the men. but
simply warn them to step back when
they rushed TO a clinch. The repeated
warnings had no effect on the men
and the crowd Kissed and groaned and
cried fake" take them out Of the
ring" At the beginning of the fourth
round the men began to fight as though
they meant business. Nelson kept
right after McGovern and used a
straight left to advantage. McGovern
frequently countered with hard lefts
ami rights. hut his blows. while they
appeared TO have great force behind
them. failed to make an impression
on the sturdy Dane At the close Of
the fifth round McGovern went to his
corner in distress.
when the men faced for the final
round Nelson sent left To the jaw
and McGovern rushed To n clinch. His
sc conds cried: Hold on. Terry; hold
en-" and never were instructions car
ried out more thoroughly. Every time
that Nelson would land a stiff blow
McGovern would grab him around the
body and hang on until Nelson would
throw him off by sheer force. II is
doubtful If McGovern could have stood
the gruelling for another roubd.
Nelson deserved the decision. but as
nc decisions are rendered when both
men are on their feet. the fight Is
classed as draw. Neither man was
knocked down during the fight, hut
McGovern slipped to the floor In the
fifth round while trying to escape
from the Dane.

After curiosity had overcome fear
half the party remained looking into

instance of the guide, sang religious
songs to Pele, and sure enough at
the end of the song the fire spurted
up through the smoke and made
glow. Pele had not been courted

upon those singing who had just
seen the fire. but Pele delayed until
