PARIS, October IA, 1911
An extraordinary story has been told
to the police at Rheims by TWO sms
boys. aged thirteen and six years re-
spectively. named Henri and Andre
Proult
Early one morning the boys uncle,
who is a baker in Rheims. was aston
ished to see the lads walk into his
shop. They were in rags and crying.
The two children. who lived with their
mother at Ay. told their uncle that
some weeks ago their mother had sold
them and their sister Marcelle. who is
eleven years old, to some gypsies.
THE gypsies and mother" said the
elder OF the two boys. met I'm the
village cafe, and mother came and
fetched us. The gypsies looked at us.
and after some talk they gave mother
SLIP for the three of us. and took us
away.
we have been travelling about with
them. selling boot laces needles and
thread. and the gypsies taught Marcele
and me to dance on stills in the streets
of the towns through which we passed,
and to collect money. Two days ago
they told us to go back to mother. say
ing that we were not worth our keep.
but they have kept Marcelle because
she is pretty"
The baker took the two children to
the police station. and a search is be-
ing made for their mother, TO see what
truth there is in the story told by the
children.

guns which hGrl a fourteen-hundred-
pound shell through the air at the speed
of a mile in two seconds. and II is able
to measure that speed with absolute ac-

releases a force sufficient to raise the
Masonic Temple in Chicago two feet In a
single second, and yet the department Is
able to measure that force as accurately
as your groceryman weighs pound OF

great force when unconfined may be
used as a walking stick. from which the
owner can light his pipe or a cigar.

Violated Academy Rules.

The incident occurred just after church
This is one OF the few times when out
Siders particularly females, are allowed
in Bancroft Hall. which is the living
quarters of the midSiipmen Midship-
men are allowed to bring friends into the
corridors and assembly halls of the build
ing, but are not allowed to bring guests.
other than their close relatives. to Their
rooms. The mere fact of having the
young women in the plebs room was a
serious offense in itself The young
women are understood to h. from out-of-
town, and to have attended the hop on
the previous evening the guests of the
midshipman who did the hazins. 1t was
to amuse the young women that the haz-
ing was done.
II is understood that the hazing was of
a severe physical nature. the kind when
was supposed to have beer d thing of the
past at the Naval Academy. According to
a statement which came directly from q
PARTICIPANT il began with a general call
ing down and continued with the require
ment of standing on his head, and severe
physical exercise of various ndS. The
plebes We're nearly boiling with lndlgna-
ton at their humiliating treatment, put SO
great is their subsection TO the under
C.aSsmen that they did not get up the
nerve to resist. All the time the two
young women formed a g.Sgllng audience
According TO the code. the under class
men have a right to appeal to the upper
classmen when they think they nave been
maltreated or subjected to anything be-
yond what the traditions of the academy
allow. This one of the plebes did, and ne
was at once informed that he had made
q proper appeal and that the upper class-
men would stand by him.

The matter has not been officially re

feeling OF the upper classmen toward the
incident, and is disposed to allow the
phus Andrews his aid. says that SIrt
Gibbons intends to take prompt and Wig
orouS action in this case If the facts
warrant il.
The indignation on the part Of the
mdshipmen springs from the fact that
the second clasSman absolutely trans
crossed the rules OF the code, the un-
written law by which the midshipmen
are governed as to haznE and ether
ia zing is that il is q private matter he
