SEVERE, HIT OT I1ARI1AROLS. Manner In Which n Freshman from Ronton Wns llnzed. Chicago Tribune. This Is the way the boys hazed the raf Intellectual freshman from Roston: "Ry th way, Raffaldo," casually rexr.arked one of the sophomores, "you know there is no such thing possible as an absolutely straight line?" "Y-ea," replied young Raffaldo, who had never suspected anything of the kind. "Certainly." "It is sad but true," continued the sophomore, "that a great deal of our higher education consists in unlearning much of the sciollstic and meretricious knowledge, socalled, with which the literature of the age3 Is bürdend, and in graspiag the idea that many of the phenomena upon which we base axioms are merely appearances, without substantial reality. For example, aealn, you know that two things may be equivalent to the same thing without being even approximately equivalent to each other?" "Yes. that is true." "Then there is that familiar postulate, 'the whole is greater than any of its parts,' the utter absurdity of which, when subjected to critical analysis, must have become appartnt to you long ago?" "Y-es." "Aristotle says by the bye, you havj learned, I presume, that recent investigations prove Aristotle to have been an old Corinthian adventures.- who frequently masqueraded as a man?" "Why. yes. 1 " "Aristotle says In one of his or. rather, her letters to Speusippus that the possessor of the true philosopher's stone was the man who could take the bark of a tree and make paper money out of it a. sayin which, hundreds of years later, was attributed to Marco Polo. Incidentally, this shows the source whence the reenbacker of modern times derives his inspiration, is it not wonderful?" "Kr-yes. it I, indeed." "And you know, of oour.se, that no such man as lialph Waldo Emeron ever lived?" "No! No!" gasped the freshman, "that Is going a little too far! He certainly did! ' "Young man," said the sophomore severely, "for balking at a thing like that, when you have Just swallowed a. lot of intlniteiy bigger l!es, you are about to be puniheu. You will need all your fortitude. Prepare yourxt'lf." Must all the harrowing details of the ha tine: be given? Yen! Hut let us be brif. A dozen students tiled solemnly Into the room, each bearing a plate of baked beans. They surrounded that haplesa youth. They made hltn stand up. Then they turned their backs upon him. They ate the beans And didn't offer him any.

In discharging Müller the judge said the remark w;.s a foolish one, but was not necessarily a crime. Mr. DlckiiiMou Criticised. Central Christian Advocate. The conviction is growing that the reason why no farther proKTess hag been made In the ransom of Miss Stone from the Bulgarian brigands is because of the diplomatic incapacity of the very estimable gentleman who is our consul general at Sofia. Mr. Dickinson is an admirable Kcntlcman, but a variety of characteristics have reduced his influence to a ridiculous point. He turned down the offices of the Russian minister who in reality holds Ruljraria in the hollow of his hand. He has failed to comprehend the Bulgarian character and play upon it as a skillful diplomatist, and tle months have dragged on with no credit either to our Natloa or to our Christian sentiments. The shuttlecock of mangling is tili playing back and forth. The new consul general will reif eve the situation. Perhaps an official of the embassy at St. l'et.ribure will b selected.

The Capital CItys rolled consistently all during the evening, and piled up scores that could not be beaten by their opponents. The Marions succeeded in taking four of the games from the North Sides.
