A WEST POINT HAZING
FELT HATS.
Championing ths Worm.
An lui ideiit tuat occurred some years
ago during a m - sh I uu of tbe British
purllmueut furnished au amusing il
lustration of the power of satire to
bring about resulta that sober argu
ment often falls to aceoinplisb.
There bad been In trod need a bill de
signed to preveut cruelty to wild aui-
ilia Is In captivity, it w M opposed on
tbe ground that, if pHHK«xi. It would
eudauger certaiu kind* of legithuHte
s|K»rt.
W’beD tbe Earl of Kimberley a roue
he gravely admitted tbe force of this
argument.
"There can be no doubt," Raid be.
“that tbe bill would put an end to fisb-
lug with w«tns as bait. It is a bill to
prevent cruelty to wild animals tn
captivity. Tbe schedule states that
tbe word 'animal' shall be held to In
clude reptile. A worm may be held to
be a reptile. A worm Impaled on a
book must certainly be held to be In
captivity; therefore tbe angler wbo
uses a live worm for bait would be
guilty of cruelty to an animal in cap
tivity."
Tbe laugh that followed at the ex
pense of those against the bill robbed
tbe opposition of whatever force It had
and carried tbe measure to a suc
cessful issue.—Cincinnati Commercial
