BRUTAL hazing. inflicted UpoTa Voune Student lof at Purdue University. Austi „ Parker, eon of J. B. Park ~f this city, and a student in t f r ,. s ta»n dan. of Purdue Um- Lafayette, was the victim ' r i ivizine by his fellow of a cruel hazing > j students. , . , . He was decoyed from his board in house after nightfall and was Xto the woods four miles # His clothes wore stripped entire lvfronl his person, and he was sashed with switches into singing an d dancing, after which he was compelled to mount a stump and deliver a speech, his family histo ry the text. . Whenever he hesitated the fla gellation was renewed. The frosty a ir made him shiver, and, to warm him, tallow candles were lighted and the hot grease was permitted to drip over his person. After the tortured lad had fin ished his speech, his tormenters, daubed him all over with red ink, forced a watermelon over his head for a cap, and abandoned him in the darkness, leaving him to find his clothing as best he could, and walk back to his rooms. Young Parker is only 17 years old and of delicate built. The exposure prostrated him and his condition gives concern. The college authorities have kept the hazing a secret, but the grand jury of that county is investigat ing. No cause is known for the assault, as Parker is a quiet, inof fensive lad of studious habits. The affair is the most brutal in the history of Indiana colleges for years. ft Terrible Revenge.

Somerset, Ky , October 3.—80 b Eldrige, the noted murderer, under sentence, who was confined here, broke jail early this morning, and there is no clew to his whereabouts He escaped by sawtcg the bars of a small ventilating window. Eld ridge left the following note to Jailer W. S. Shepherd. “Kind Sir; I hate to have to tell you that I am going home to Missouri, I have some business to settle that is beneficial to my dear wife and children, Mr. Morrow said my case in the Court of ap peals was put off until November 15. Kind sir, don’t be mad with me for you have treated me with great courtesy. I will come back before time for my case to be argued in the Court of Appeals . I hope this will not put any of my friends against me, for I love my friends, and my enemies I do hot hate. It goes hard with me to think I have been accused of a crime that another man who now sleeps in hie grave, committed . I had almost as soon take a whip ping as to go, but for the.benefit of my family I have resolved to go. I hope that my leaving will not be for the worst. Hoping that I will be a free man someday, I remaih, yours respectfully, • '*R. B. Eldridge.” A jubilee Celebration. Fifty years is a longtime—much more than t e average lie ime. Men, therefore, naturally note such periods. Just now Messrs. Perry Davis & Son, of Providence, R. 1., the proprietors of Pain-Killer, are celebrating the jubilee of that good old household remedy, and have doubled the capacity of -their -bot tles, without increasing the price. This will of course make Pain-Kil ler more popular than ever. For fifty years it has been the family medicine chest in countless homes in every 'country on the globe. Once given a trial, it stays in any home, where, when anything hap pens, the bottle is reached for. When one reflects that two years is the average life of a patent med icine, these fifty years proves very plainly that if Pain-Killer had not been all that it claims, it would have gone into oblivion long years ago. The old imitations of Pain- Killer have gone the way of all substitutes, and the newer “just as goods” are following on, for as long as some things are recogniz' d as better than others, Pain-Killer will be recognized as the best and quickest relief for internal and external pain. When anything happens to you or yours, nine times out of ten you can cure it yourself with Pain-Kil ler. . OLD MARTIN IRONS The Noted Strike leader Attempted to Outrage a Child. Fort Worth, Tex.
