Ragged. disheveled. footsore and
weary from exposure to cold night
winds. two young men early this
morning presented themselves at q
railroad ticket Office and offered to
pawn a ring for tickets to North
field, telling a story Of a hazing at
hands Of fellow college society men
at Carleton college. Mortified.
The young men said they were
kept tied to trees in forest north
east OF this city during the entire
night, and their appearance corrob-
GRATED their story They gave their
names as o. Kjorberg and Mark Fra
ger. and asserted that they had been
bound and gagged by college men
who were Initiating them into the
delights OF one OF Carleton colleges
societies.
1t seems that their tormentors de-
cided that life in Mortified was too
tame to offer proper fields for the
torture Of their luckless victims and
accordingly brought them to this city
and hiring rigs took them to a dense
woods about three miles from the city
limits. Here they disrobed the young
men, who are freshmen. and substi-
tinted for their usual apparel the garb
OF hobo. Then they relieved them
of their valuables. The small son Of
Walter Miller heard their cries for
help. The little fellow daringly In
yaded the forest and came upon the
young men bound and helpless H
released them and they al once hnr-
ried to town.

This is a story of the days of the

about the person of a French Viscomte
called des Ormeaux. who has all the
graces and polish of the traditional
Frenchman, and all the rascality, deceit,
and cruel viliany that could be found
in the worst of any race, He managed
to keep himself under cover in Eng
land, and appears to have had great re-
sources in his occupation o. dcceiyIng
the government and people generally
with whom he came in contact. He was
landed on the east coast of Euglond:
fleeing in fact from the Jacohins of
France, and imposed Oh the squire OF
Neither Hall as his guest. Inevitably
the daughter Of the squire was a great
attraction to this Frenchman. but he
was rcpulsive TO her who had n true

Neither Hall and the squire came upon
him when he was forcing his attentions
on Clcely, his daughter. He was about
TO shoot the Frenchman. but remem.
bered that the viscomJe was his guest,
and ordered him away. In the mean
time, however. the Frenchman had set
fire TO the hall and took refuge in the
tower, where Captain Hood found him
and III duel ran him through. 1t is

TO UPLIFT CHRISTIAN EFFORT.

Commentaries on Sin. BY George Fred
erick Jelfs. Published by Sherman
French & Company. Boston.
The foundation Of this work is St
Paul s saving. that "the Gentiles with
out the law did by nature the things
contained in the law, showing the work
of the law written on their hearts. -
And the author thinks that if in the
meantime those who profess TO be Chris
tians, generally accepted and followed
the true principles of Christianity they,
TOO, would long ago have been doing
by nature without the law the things
contained in the law And the effort
herein is to lead them back into the
true spirit of Christianity so that thev
may do the lawful things in a lawful
way and with pure hearts. The author
considers that the churches have not
done their full duty. especially toward
Juvenile offenders and the GROWING gen
Grafton generally. He holds that ''not.
withstandinp all the efforts being made
TO improve the social and moral condi-
tion of mankind, there is no appreciable
progress being made:' and he agrees
that the great epochal problem remains
unsolved, He undertakes in this book
to show why. and his SHOWING is that
the Bible principles. and esbeciallv the
gospel PRINCIPLES. are not properly an
plied The book is a well-meant effort
to get back TO first principles and start
anew on the right basis.
