THE New York Medical Record
claims that Miss Lulu Hearst, the Geor-
gia electric girl, performs her feats
through the power of "hypnotism.
This, we believe, is a word coined by
DR.. Hammond, ex-U. s. Surgeoa- Gen.
eral, and signifies a condition similar to
that generally understood by the com.
mon term 'mesmerism. The unscen.
tiiie mind VIII not presume to argue ON
such point with go learned IN authori-
ty, but 1t does seem that it is just as re.
mpkable thing for the girl 10 raise a
two hundred pound man in chair up
into the air, chair and all, by simply
placing her open palm against the chair,
and leaving her fingers extended, with.
out the least effort and all in the pres
encs of 5000 people, through hypnotism,
as to do it any other way. To give a
thing name, lacks good deal of thor
oughly explaining that thing and telling
what it is. and all about it.

Suffering Dentist.
She looked In at the dentists door,
sny, the Lewistown Journal and she
said she believed she had tooth that
had cavity in it; maybe she would
have il out if it didn't hurt any. The
dentist assured her that he never hurt
anybody. She said that she expected
her teeth would come awful hard. They
wasn't like any body's else. He said he
guessed that was so. She said she know
it would kill her to have II tooth pulled,
for she couldn't stand anything. She
knew she should faint or scream or do
something horrii or the like of that, she
always did. He said he didn't believe
she would do so very badly, but she
said she would. Oh. she knew abe
would; she wasn't like anybody else in
this world, aud her teeth were awfully
sensitive, Mary Ellen Jones could SIT
right down any day aud have any
amount of teeth out and the like Of that,
but she never could, she knew she
couldn't. She said that she could fly
right up through the roof to think Of it.
The dentist said she might take some-
thing, but she said she couldn't, she
shonldn't dare to. She heard of girl
out West who took laughing gas, and
she laughed three weeks, and the like
o. that. aud all the family went crezy;
and she didn't want to dive her family
crazy, for if their girl went away they
were going to break up this summer and
20 down to the beach, and she was do
ing everything she could to make it
hard for the girl so she would go away,
for she'd heard there's lovely
rink down to the beach and
the like O. that, and she wanted to
go. And then she asked the dentist ii
he thought her mouth would be a good
one 10 tit false teeth in. He said she'd
better sit down and let him look at the
one that ached, but she said she guess
cd she wouldn't trouble him to-day.
The tooth didn't ache any then, cnd
she didn't know as she could tell which
one it was, and maybe twas only tired,
she'd chewed 80 much spruce gum this
spring and the like O that; anyway she
wouldn't bother him. She'd s'posed

The destiny of the south is in the
hands Of men under 40 years OF age.
In looking about southern town its
Young men ere the first point to lie
considered. Within ten yeals they will
push it to the front or abandon it.
Eere in Selma four -ffths OF the business
is in the hands of men under 40, and /
great share OF it in still younger hands.
The boys who were s, 10 anI II years
old when the war closed are now the
business men of the south, and they are
full of enterprise Here in Selma they
appear to be an earnest, industrious
set, and are advancing towards pros
perity. You find them cheerful when
the older men are gloomy; you find
them hopeful when the older men tax
of hard times; you find them ready to
encourage all legitimate enterprises
when their fathers are content with
what they have.

date for the Democratic party and
throws the mantle to some younger
and more vigorous statesman him.
self. The time for the Dem ocratic
Convention is rapidly approaching
and less than half a dozen names
are in the mouths of the people in
connection with the Presidential
candidacy in opposition to Blaine.
Among those very freely talked of
and advocated as a man who might
possibly secure to his party the
state of New York is Roswell P.
FLOWER, of New York City, who
was born at Theresa, Jefferson coun-
ty, N. Y, August 7th, 1885. When
eight years old Roswell's father died
leaving the family IN Strengthened
circumstances and the boy worked
hard to aid in supporting his wild
owed mother and her children. At
II he began his business life as
clerk in a store and at IS we find
him in Watertown, n. Y, clerk in
the post-ofIice which position he
held for six years. He then began
business for himself in asnall way,
as jeweler, ard in 10 years he had
save quite com potency from his
profits. Henry Keep, a celebrated
railroad magnate at that time and a
brother-in-law of Mr.. Flower, now
died and left him in the charge of
his est;.t, of 100000. Mr. Flow
er removed to New York City at
that time and soon developed the
fact that he was remarkable finan-
cler. He became and still is the
head of his banking firm at 50
Broad street, two brothers being his
Joint partners.
Mr.. Flower was elected to the
31,h Congress in opposition to VIM.
Waldorf Astor un ler most peculiar
circumstances. \ vacancy was
caused in the Seventh n. Y. Con-
gressional District which includes
the wealthicst portion Of New York
City, by reason Of Levi p. Morton's
appointment to France as United
States Minister. VIM. W. Astor
ran for the vacant seat as a Repub-
lican, the district being Republic
can stronghold. Mr.. Flower was in
duced to permit the use OF his name
in opposition to Astor, although the
latter Is said to have spent fabulous
sums of money at the polls, Mr..
Flower was elected by majority OF
over 5000 votes. He subsequently
refused a reelection and has devot-
ed all his time to business and acts
of philanthropy, his generosity to
charitable and public institutions
being unbounded and yet 'unosten-
tatious. hlr. Flower may develop a

PRAYERS and Pistols.

fannie B. Wa Dis u 'catecas letter.
1t was a queer experience. This
evening We attended Presbyter: al
services in the old San Augustine.
"Detter take your pistols" said DIR.
JEST; 50 Betsey and l put our shining
little weapons in the small sachels We
alwavs wear a5 our bells. Behind the
pulpit stood the usual guns, ready for
instant service, while every man in the
hous and probably most Of the
women-were conspicuously armed.
But it was very attentive audience,
mostly Mexican converts, with thought
full faces and evident earnest purpose
to abide by the faith within them. 1t
seemed strange enough to hear familiar
hymns in this far away land-"jesus,
lover Of my soal, let me to Tly bosom
fly" "From Green.and's icy mount
aims" and "Roc.A Of ages, cleft for ma
dear cd tunes, which brought tears
to our eyes, though the words were
tho e Of an alien tongue. And the read
ing of the sacred word in Spanish, the
prayers, with "Das nos esto dia nuest~a
pana," (give us this day our daily bread),
and the stirring sermon which followed,
were all study worthy of attention.
In the midst of the services sluad
of sod ers filed in and ranged them
selves on each side of the doorway, so
that none could escape. Instantly
every mans hand sought his weapon,
and women's faces paled with terror,
but the services went calmly on without
interruption. It proved that these
minions of the law had come to arrest
an aged rascal who Lad been per
sstently attempting to assass nate his
own son. The young man, who IS
member of this church, is about to wed
q Protestant girl, which 50 enragel his
sire that he determined to destroy his
own flesh and blood. The long, thin
blade with which the old man meant to
do the murderous deel flashed sharply
for an instant in his trembling hands.
but he was quickly d.sarmed and led
