Rc Hazing at the Citadel. The cadets In ihe citadel have been hszlng some of their fellow cadets and have used two of them so roughly that they have gone home. Let It be remembered that these cadets are the beneficiaries of the State's bounty. Their conduct Is not only outrageous when their fellow cadet Is considered, but their act is a disgrace 10 me managemeuu ui iuo iunntution. Here Is the way his treatment Is described: But after entering the doorsoftbe Academy hltt troubles Just began. Having been raised In ibe country, be was not accustomed to city ways and was naturally timid. Some of the cadets, when they found tblsout, immediately set about to tease and worry the youni; man. But this was not alt. Had It stopped here, young Way would be at the Academy now. A lew nights ago he was set upon by a party of students, and not being satisfied with cuffing him about for a while, they finally got a ohaln, tied it around the boy's neck and hoisted him up, until his feet barely touched tbe floor. Charleston, as everybody knows, isatoney place, bat as tbe State supports the Institution, the country boys should be protected within Its walls, or else tbe Institution shou Id be closed, Tbe State need not support an institution to which country boys are excluded, or from which it allows tbe smart Alecks to run them off. If the hazing of country boys cannot be stopped, tbe legislature should withhold its support. There is no use for the Institution anyway. If the beneficiaries of the State are to take charge of the Institution and run oil boys from the country, tbe people and tbe legislature 1 should resent tbe insult and show its appreciation of the ingratitude of Its pets or beneficiaries. SHOOK HANDS WITH A TIGER. When the Aiiimnl FlnlHhotl, ttie Man | Wore Only u Xecklle find Shoes. A young man whose desire lobe sociable exceeded his good Judgment viHlted the winter quarters of the Great Wallace Shows not long ago. Ilen, one of the big Bengal tigers of the menagerie, was taking his after-dinner nap. His paw was hanging carelessly out of thecage. The visitor. In aspirltoi cordiality, grasped the proffered baud like a candidate Beau Broratuel of the menagerie, Is an exclusive fellow, and be did not appreciate such unseemly advances. Mr. Man bad not been Introduced and was regarded as a decidedly presumptuous Individual. Ben rebuked blm by reaching out and gathering in bis back hair; be swat him in tbe back of the neck and delineated thereon a railroad map. He stabbed holes In htm and did various other pleasantries peculiar to a tiger. When the man was rescued he remembered that something ' bad happened. He found himselt arrayed In a pair oi shoes,a necktie and several strenks of gore, but not a thing else. It took a surgeon to sew the remnaots together. The boys about the menage ' rie kept the necktie as a souvenlrand bung it up on Ben's cage. ' WOMEN THE BETTER EQUILIBRISTS. ?.

Cambridge. THE BIG SH0W.1 The Oirpnt Wallace Nliows to Exhibit In Abbeville, Tnowlay, November 2nd, 1897. To see the performance oflered by the Great Wallace Shows is to see the best artists In the circus profession that money can secure or long years of experience suggest. 1r the universal verdict of those who have been enabled to visit this popular place of amusement duriDe the past dozen years. And this year, the fourteenth successful season, the claim Is set up that all previous rpcords are overshadowed and a program of high-class novelties Is offered that outclasses all competitors. Better yet, this fact seems to be founded on absolute facts,as the press notices in every city Included In this year's tour thus far liave been lavish In their praises. Indeed the universal verdict has been "the best circus yet seen here," and when the tremendous strides in this branch of the amusement business during recent years is considered, this Is exceptionally strong language. "The proof of the pudding Is In the eating thereot," is a trite saying, and the people of this ci?y and vicinity will have an opportnnlty to test the worth of the Wallace Shows In the near future. The date for exhibition In Abbeville, Is Tuesday, November^nd, and the customary glittering street parade will be given at 10:30 in the forenoon of that day. The Cov and Wheelman. | Monroe county, N. Y., Is enjoying a novel I lawsuit that will have special Interest for i wheelmen. A young man was wheeling ! along a country road when he mot a cow so 1 suddenly that lie landed on the cow's back I and to even up matters the cow mounted the wheel. The cow was too much for the wheel, ' and It collapsed, and while the young man j fell Into the ditch the cow Jumped ttie feDce I and broke her neck. The owner of the cow lias brought *ult against the young man for damages to his cow. The'wheelman may set up the claim that the cow was guilty o( contributory negligence?first, by getting on his wheel when she didn't know how to ride, and, second, by unnecessarily jumping the fense, but the farmer I may be able to prove by expert medical testimony that tlie shock of tlndlng herself Impaled on a wheel rendered ttie cow Insane, In ! which frame of mind she jumped the fense. ! We believe the farmer should be fined hecause his cow didn't ring a belt, and that the I wheelman should be fined for not having a i cow catcher on his wheel.
