LEINENT ON CADETS.
Two Fresh Youngsters Will Not Be
Dismissed From West Point.

New York June 25.-The two cadets,
Butler and Ferris, the former from
New York and the latter from Alaba-

their way back to West Point after a
visit to the Metropolitan museum of
art, in this city, will not be dismissed.
which was their sentence at the hands
of the court martial which recently
tried them at the military academy.
The cases are of more than ordinary
interest, for the reason that it was
claimed by the accused cadets that
they had been tried under the wrong
paragraph Of the academic regulations.
1t was admitted that they had misbe-
haved themselves, but it was insisted
that the alleged offense took place
while they were still on duty, the claim
being that the trip back to New York
included the period of actual instruc-
ton of which part was the visit to
the museum. The subject has been the
occasion Of much correspondence be-
tween Gen. A. L. Mills, superintendent
of the academy, and the war depart
ment authorities. General Mills recon-
mended that the sentence be commut-
ed to the period of confinement within
the usual limits of punishment at
the military academy until September
1, when the young men will join the
second class. This recommendation was
concurred in by General Bell chief Of
staff, and has been approved by the
war department.

INITIATES THE TURKS.
New Style of Veil Copied After That
Worn in Turkey.

Newport, r. l., June 25.-Miss Mil
dred Sherman, daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. VIM. Watts Sherman and one Of
the most popular society girls of this
city, has started a new fad 4 in wells
and everybody is wondering now
whether the fad will find many imitat-
ors i'm the swell set of Newport and
New York. The new fad consists main
ly in wearing a large End heavy veil
in close imitation of the wells worn
by Turkish women. The veil is fast
ened to each side of the head in such
a manner, that 1t covers the lower part
Of the face and leaves only the eyes
and part of the forehead exposed to
view. This effect Of the arrangement
is rather striking and peculiar and has
attracted considerable attention. Sew
eral of Miss Sherman's friends have
already taken uD the fad and during
the last few days several Of them have
appeared in public with their wells
arranged in Turkish fashion
