It would be deplorable enough this heinous crime were confined to boys or junior classes, who in recent years have furnished such appalling cases of criminal treatment of their fellows In military and naval acade mies, colleges and universities.

We notice that In England the wretched custom has extended to offi cers of regiments, and In one Instance In particular the victim waa so mal treated by hla persecutors that his physician hns reported him to be In a very serious condition. This case waa perhaps more cowardly than oth ers, because of the fact that the un fortunate officer, being unable to share In the extravagance and expense Jn which his brother officers Indulged, excluded himself from the company of the officers nf the regiment and con fined himself to the seclusion of hla own rooms. Without Inquiring Into the cause of hla action, they proceeded to humiliate .the officer In the most dis graceful manner. They sought him In the privacy of his own room, stripped him, smeared him with motor oil, covered him with feathere and plastered his hair with jam. He man aged to escape from Ills tormentors, and in this denuded and disgraceful condition sought refuge In a nearby hotel. It Is promised by the English au thorities that a thorough Investigation will be made of the case, and we trust that the perpetrators of so humiliating a disgrace upon a brother officer wtl! be punished to the full extent of tb” law, and their names nosted so that they may be ostracised from society and denied the recognition they have probably heretofore enjoyed.
