DEVOTION OF NUNS
 CONVERTS WOMAN
Victim Of Milford Wreck Received Into Roman Catholic Church

New Haven, April 1S.--An interest Ing aftermath of the recent wreck on the New Haven road at Milford is tho conversion to the Roman Catholic Ia1th Of Miss Margaret Fenton one of the young women who was injured in the wreck. Miss Fenton was received a few weeks ago into the church. She has always been a Protestant. but was so impressed by the sacrifice and deVotlon of the Sisters of Mercy at the convent in LaureltOn hall to which the injured persons in the wreck were talk zen, that she expressed a desire to be- come affiliated with the church which had produced women of such devotion. And when she had received the in- struction required before admission is given to converts in the Roman Catho- lie church, she likewise expressed the desire to be received into membership In the little chaped of convent at Laur- elton hall and there two Sundays ago in the presence of a few friends and the nuns who had attended her when she was brought to the hall she was baptized by Father Mclean.
 Miss Fenton is young women of considerable beauty and it was be- lieVed at first that the severe injuries which she received might permanent ly dlsf1gure her, for she had over 30 stitches taken in her forehead, but it has been possible for the physicians at St. Raphaels hospital to retain for her her beauty without being marred.
 Miss Fenton has not yet returned to her duties at the Harlem terminal of the New Haven road. She is the niece of Seymour M Judd, of this city, and a young woman of wide popularity It will be recalled that when she was injured in the wreck she was going south for vacation trip, accom- panied as far as New York city by her fiance, William Neenan. Both patients were confined for some time in adjacent wards in St. RaphaeTs hospital.

RUBBER HOSE USED
 IN WHIPPING PUPIL
Boy Chastized for Not Solving An
 Arithmetic Problem

Northampton Mass, April 1S.-The Northampton school committee gave hearing last evening in a case relat- ing to the punishment of a pupil of the Florence grammar school. The hearing lasted so long that there was not time to reach a decision before some of the mem bers of the committee were obliged to leave and the case will be taken up for consideration at. a later meeting. The case is that of Ernest Gagnon, pupil of the Florence grammar school, son of MT. and Mrs Joseph Gagnon, who is al- leged to have been subjected to ex- cessive punishment by Marvin E. James, principal of the school.
 It has previously been made known that w. J. Reilley, the lawyer engaged by the father of the boy, sought to make complaint against the princi- pal of the school, and that the clerk of the district court, J. A. Crosier, re- fused to receive it. In the view that the circumstances did not warrant criminal action, the clerk was sus- tained by the judge, J. B. O'Donnell.
 The hearing last evening was not public, but the outlines of the case are known. The principal of the school whipped the boy with a length of rubber hose, and it has been before said this that was done because the boy failed to solve correctly certain arithmetic examples The defense at the hearing laid stress on the ex- plantation that failure to solve the ex- amples was only an incident in a period of general neglect of duty on the part of the boy.
 It was claimed that the punishment had left welts on the boys legs, but, while it was submitted that the pun ishment was excessive, it was not as- serted that the boy had been seriously injured. Evidence was given to show that the department of the boy had won uniform standing of "excellent." The witnesses in the case were the boy and his parents Miss Harriet Rice, the boys teacher, MT. James, the prin cipal, and Frank Mccarthy, who saw the welts left upon the boys legs MT. Reilley appeared on behalf of the boy.

 The things he will do in his Day tractor as it rushes high over the metropolis he says, will be far more thrilling than his performance at the national capital. Mr. Thompson will not tell the hour of his coming nor the spots that he has picked out as targets, because he wants New York CTS to e~t genuine surprise.

FOUR SWIMMERS AND
CLUBS CLEARED OF
PROFESSIONAL CHARGE

George Cunha, John Kelii, Clarence
Lane and Harold Kruger, and their
clubs, were cleared Of the charge that
they were going to transfer their al
legiance from the Hawaii clubs to
the Olympic Club, at a meeting OF the
resignation committee of the H. A. A.
U. last evening at the Chamber OF
Commerce.
According to a letter read by John
Soper, H. Decker of this city had
written to the Olympic Club stating
that he could arrange to have four
swimmers from Hawaii swim for the
Olympic Club at Los Angeles this
year. The resignation committee pro.
tested against this and at the meeting
last evening made the statement that
the four swimmers did not know of
the arrangement made by Decker. 1t
war moved at the meeting that mas
mach sas thes athlates, would have. to
remain In one city for four months
the plan outlined by Decker was
not feasible, and swimmers going
from one club to the other must swim
unattached until their residence is
gained. A motion was made that the
four swimmers in no way forfeited
their rights on account of Deeker's
action.
