Mr, Quay had been assigned lo the second

Many of them wero allowed to remain In

Just before tho senate convened Mr. Quay

Ily this tlrno tho senato chamber was

Eccres of members of tho houso had como
to tho senato sldo of tho capltol to witness
tho Induction of Mr. Quay Into oftlce, among
thrra practically tho entlro 1'cnnsylvunla
delegation.
Ah soon as tho sennto had convened Mr.
renroBc, who was also tho recipient of
nvcml handsomo floral pieces, presented
tho credentials of Mr. Quay, and they were
plnccd on file.
Mr. Penrose then requested that tho oath
ef office bo administered to his colleague.
As no objection was offered, Mr. Penrose
escorted Mr. Quay to tho desk of tho presi
dent pro tcmporo, Mr. Krye. flcforc taking
tho oath Mr. Quay shook hands cordially
llh Mr. Krye.
The president pro tcmporo had previously
announced to the people In tho galleries
that no applauso or demonstrations of ap
proval or disapproval wero permitted under
tho rules of tho senato. Thus, no demon
stration occurred when Mr. Quay had token
tho oath. After ho had Hlgned tho roll nt
tho desk of tho secrutnry ho retired to his

gratulations." Within a fort' minutes hun

Mr. Kornker moved that the senato pro

Jn- violation of a tacit understanding that
the nrmy bill should remain under ron

Mr. Money adverted vigorously lo t'ic

A Hair Food
There is this peculiar thing
about our Hair Vigor: it's a
hair food, not a dye. It
doesn't turn your hair sud
denly black and make it look
dead and lifeless. But gradu
ally the old color conies back
to your hair, all the rich,
dark color it used to have.
And it stops falling of the hair.
Even if vour hair isn't com-
- ,
ing out, isn t turning gray,
isn t too short, isn t in the least
unsatisfactory, yet you certainly
want a fine dressing for it.
You can't get anything better
than Ayer's Hair Vigor. It
keeps the scalp clean and
healthy, makes the hair grow
rapidly, prevents it from fall
ing out, and does not allow a
single gray hair to appear.

Irrespective of age.
Mr, Hate of Tennessee opposed the pend

tho president authority which he thought
ought to bo exercised only by congress, but
nlso becnune It created a permanent stand
ing nrmy of 100,000 men.
Mr. Penrose addressed tho senate briefly
In support of nn amendment ho offered,
striking nut ot the bill all limitations ot ago

Without proceeding further with tho army

Senator Quay of Pnnnsylvnnla.
Tho house, without preliminary business,
went Into committee of the whole, l.aw-

on a rising vote, ID to 33, but Mr. Smith
mado tho point of order of no quorum nnd

Hepburn of lown moved to strike out
the provision requiring that tho four as
sistant postmasters general should bo con

Hepburn said the confirmation ot these
officials by the senato simply cripples
tho appointing power of the president and
plnced It In tho power of the senators to

WHST POINT, N. Y Jan. 17. The con
grcsslonal committee held only two sessions
at the West Point Military academy today.
Tho afternoon session lasted only a little
over an hour.
Only two witnesses were examined todny.
Tho first was Cadet James Prentice, who
had accused the Into Oscar I'. Hooz ot
feigning to read his Ulblo when ho had n
novel hidden Insldo tho coer. After n long
examination by tho commltteo Prentice
said ho believed ho was mistaken and Poor,
might havo been reading n lesson leaf or u
supplement to the lllble.
Tho other and moro Important witness
wns Cndet Douglass MacArthur, of whom
tho probers after facts about hazlug had
heard a great deal slnro they came here,
MacArtt ur stoutly denied that he had ever
fainted or become unconscious from violent
exercising, and Insisted that ho had not
been treated nny moro harshly thunhls tent
mates and several classmates. Ho told the
commltteo that ho had been feeling under
tho weuther before ho had been hazed on
tho night In question, and swore positively
that ho had neither convulsions norhystcrla
In consequence. Tho whole matter, he
said, had been greatly exaggerated and the
story that cotton had been stuffed Into his
mouth to stlfio his groans was perfectly
absurd. He acknowledged, however, that
Cadets Dockory and Perry had exercised
him until his muscles been mo cramped and
ho lost all control over them.
Ho said ho lay on his cot nnd moaned,
but did not cry out.
MncArthur's examination will be resumed
when tho commltteo meets ugaln tomorrow.
Novel IiikIiIc of lllble.
Prcnttco Is tho cadet who Is responsible
for the report tlint former Cndet Dooz had
secreted a novel Inside ot an open blblo
and wns reading It, while to nil appear
ances ho was reading the holy book.
General Dick questioned tho cadet closely
with reference to this action. Tho witness
said tho book was a paper-covered French
novel, but later on tho general mado him
admit that he could not swear positively
that It was. Ho also had to acknowledge
that It might havo possibly been a lesson
leaf or a supplement to tho bible.
"To whom did you tell this?"
"He Is tho president of the cadet branch
ot tho Young Men's Christian association."
"When did you tell him?"
"While tho cadet foot ball team was In
Philadelphia on tho 1st day of last De
cember,." "So you kept this Incident to yourself
for over two years, until you heard that
Mr. Dooz was dead or dying?"
"Yes, sir."
"What brought up tho recollection of the
episode?"
"Wo were all reading about Hooz'3
charges In tho Philadelphia newspapers."
"What charges?"
"Ho had stated that ho was killed by tho
hazing ho received In this nendemy," replied
tho witness, who vlduntly did not sco tho
"bull" he had made.
Tho witness told of being Jiazcd by Cadet
Hoy during' his lira your C tho academy.
Ho was sick during tho day prior to being
havod nnd ho had done twelvo eagles and
becomo faint, and told Foy that he had been
111. Hoy lot up on him nnd scolded him for
not tolling of his Illness before.
"This." said Prentice, "mado me very
careful over slnco If 1 wns hazing u man. I
never Interfered with n delicate-looking ca
det. Hooz wan not a strong-looking mnn
and I always had a, friendly feeling for
him nnd tried to advise him for the bettor."

Whllo making this statement Prentlco wns
visibly affected nnd his voice broke. Ho
seemed to bo on tho vergo of breaking down
when In answer to General Dick he said:
"If I had known anything nbout It before
hand I should never havo allowed Uooz to
bo called out. I considered that he was
not physically lit to tako part In n fight."
Under Judge Smith's questioning tho wit

was In every, way a success. It was largely

Mrs. Georgo Tllden, who wns chairman of
the commltteo that organized tho branch,
made nn nddresu, us did Miss Ferguson, the
general secretary, and Miss Margaret O'Con
nell, who has directed tho work. Tho ro
port of tho secretary. Miss Joscphlno lien
son, was gratifying, showing tho branch to
havo accomplished all for which It was or
ganized. Cnstellar Is ono of the few schools that
supports a study club for thn benefit of its
teachers, tho organization having existed
toveral years, though tho rouro nnd sub
jects of study havo changed with tho teach

bers thirteen, Including all tho teachers
but two, who cannot devoto the tlrno to It,

Lnder tho leadership of tho principal, Miss
Hanker, tho teachers meet every Wednes
day evening after school for tho study of
Kngllrth history. The reigns of Stephen nnd
Henry II nre beforo tho clnss Just at pres
ent. Tho subjects nro taken up topically,
tho events being carefully studied nnd their
influence upon subsequent history traced.
No particular textbook Is used by tho
rlass. nearly every member studying a dif
ferent author, hut volumes of llldpath nnd
Green aro kept in tho ofilco for general use.
In thin way tho opinions of widely different
nuthoiitlen nro secured, a nlan thnt tho
teachers regard as valuable, enabling them
to judgo without bias tho various sovereign
and the fentures of their reigns.
Tho largest attendance slnco tho organi
zation wus present at Tuesday evening's
meeting of tho Omaha Kquallty club In tho
Paxton hotel. Tho business consisted of re
ports of committees and tho completion of
nrrangements for tho reception to bo given

Paxton hotel nnd every detail that may add
lo tho pleasure) of tho guests has been care
fully considered by tho club. Tho exact
hour for tho reception cannot bo definitely

'plebo' when the hazing, an account of
which I have rend In tho pnpers, occurred.
Like most reports ot the kind it was a smnll
nffalr Riently exaggerated afterward. My
treatment was no more severe than that
given to others, nnd wim In no way calcu
lated to placo mo In a severo physical con
dition. "I had no convulsions. That report Is
entirely erroneous. 1 had what you
might call aggravated cramps nnd lobt
control of my muscles. I most cmphutlcnlly
deny thnt I was seized with convulsions.
I was not delirious nor out of my mind.
"The hazing took place nt 'A company
street. It was not my own tent. Thero
were other men there, Farnuui, Hnskill
nnd Cunningham, my lentmates. Thero
was a solreo nnd several of my classmates
wero hazed on that occnslon. Tho soiree
lasted about nn hour. 1 got nbout 2a0
eagles, hung on the stretcher for two
minutes nt a time and did somo dips.
Trentment .Not Seere,
"It was n very wnrm night nnd I had
been feeling 'under the weather' nil day
und was rather weak. It was dark when
the solrco begun nnd I perspired profusely,
but by 'taps' I was all right again."
"Did you consider tho treatment you re
ceived cruel nt tho time?" asked Mr.
Drlggs. who read the definition of tho
word from n dictionary.
"Yes, sfr."
"You still regard it as cruel?"
"Ves, sir."
"Now, tell us the names of tho men
who wero hazing you?"
"Cadets Dockery mid Harry."
Mr. Drlggs tried to get MacArthur to
admit that ho was seriously upset by the
violent exercises ho was required lo go'
through, but the witness would not. Hi
maintained that he had cramps in his
muscles and had lost control of them. He
denied that ho had been stuffed In his
mouth. MacArthur was very posltlvo In
his denials and tho committeemen looked
to bo very much surprised nt tho stund
he wus taking.

It corrects Inability to hold urine and scald
