This brought him the ill .ll of the suph- omores and so three nights age a crowd of them entered his room and made him a prisoner. After a num- ber of indignities he was forced to strip stark naked and then to sing, dance and pose, as his captors com- manded. They put his clothes to} soak in a pail of water and put him in abath tub. While pouring the water over him they made him imi- tate pulling for shore, with two tooth picks. They then put on his wet clothes and let him go. The next morning he was found raving with high fever, and was immediate- ly removed to his father’s house. Three doctors give little hope of his life. Still detectives have the case in hand. His father and the faculty” have offered large rewards for the discovery of the culprits. “For years 1 suffered trom loss of appetite and indigestion, but failed to find relief until 1 began taking Ayer’s Sarsaparilla.

When the baliffs advanced with crowbars to force an| entrance, boiling water was thrown in their faces and upon their heads. When the door was finally smashed, an idiot boy dashed out and violent- ly attacked the bailiffs. The sight ! fired the‘crowd, who began an at- tack upon the officers, but were restrained by Father Macfadden, the parish priest. Holes were broke in the side of the house, but again en- trance was prevented by the use of the falling water, while the crowd cheered lustily. Later the gable fell, carrying with it part of the roof. The inmates of the house still cheer- ed in defense, and hurled stones at the police. By a desperate rush the officers now succeeded in foreing an entrance and dragging out Mr. Gal- laher, a son-in-law of the widow. He wore only a shirt and drawers, and his wife, who was brought out with him, was clad only in scant under- garments. They were miserably poor and emaciated, and so weak that they had to-be carried to the barracks on doors. Their sad plight caused intense excitement among the people.
