The Proposition to Cremats tho Bodies Of
the Dead Anarchists. .....

the Dead Anarchists.
CHICAGO, Jan. T.--The proposition to ere.
mate the bodies OF the dead Anarchists was
practically shelved at a meeting Of the de-
fense committee Sunday. DR.. Ernst Schmidt
reported TO the meeting that the cemetery
directors would not insist on inserting In the
deed the restrictions against demonstrations
and unapproved monument inscriptions, un-
less the Anarchists friends insisted upon
having that document rewritten in order
that the names of certain extreme radicals
be appended as trustees.
The meeting, acting on Dr.ISchmidt's adj
vice, decided to let the old semi-conservatiye
trustees remain for the present. Some Of the
committeeman, however, warned the meet
ing that there would be trouble on November
II next, when the gates of the cemetery
would be closed before the throngs Of pill
grims. Much Of the committees time was
! taken up with the puzzling question as to
whether Elsa Friedel, "Linggs girl, is to be
taken care of by the committee, and bs given
o share Of the funds. Lingg's intended
mother-in-law was present at the meeting
and eagerly watched the proceedings. No
conclusion was reached. The compromise
between the two factions that have been
fighting for the control Of the defense fund
was ratified by the election of an entire new
set Of officers, headed by Matthew Schmidin-
ger as president. ID.

Ella wheeler wilcox at work.

1t is said that Ella Wheeler Wilcox
believes in prenatal influence. She
says she was made poet before she
was born by her mothers devotion to
Lalla Rookh at that period. She also
believes in mirrors. and never passes
one without looking into it. She saws
it is not vanity, but for reinsurance
that no disaster has overtaken hustle,
plume, or collar since her last meeting
with herself. She always has a mirror
before her when writing. When she
is brought up into corner in compo-
sition. her swift upward glance in

After a Quarrel.

II met young Mrs. W in New
York last week, said the invalid doc
tor to the writer. 'You know she
used to live in Buffalo, and was pa
tent of mine. | found her suffering
from nervousness and bad attack of
what you would call 'the blues She
said she had just lost $4,000, and
would never recover from the disap-
pointment, and would never again
have faith in her old friend and at
torney, Mr. R. Now, there never
was more honorable man than Mr..
R, and knowing that lie practi-
eally had full charge of her finances,
| was curious to find out how she lost
the money. I've been laughing over
it ever since | learned the facts. 1t
seems that Mrs. VS. grandfather
died three years ago, and in his will
left n lot of bonds of western rail-
road to Mrs. W. She asked Mr..
R what to do with them, and, after
consulting with two or three New
York bankers, he advised her to sell
them Immediately. The bonds were
considered poor security, with pros
pect of never becoming any better.
She sold the bonds. Last week she
heard that they were bought by wo-
man in Albany, who had since made
$4,000 by an unexpected rise in their
value. When Mrs. W-hcard it she
went to Mr.. R and almost raised
the roof from his Office. She went
away weeping, and took to her bed
for two days. What medicine did l
prescribe? Why, | told her | had
seen Mr.. R and had heard of her
terrible loss. Then l asked: Mrs.
W, what if your grandfather had
not diedp' She thought minute, and
then said: We'll, if he hadn't died,
then that Albany woman would never
have gotten my $4,000. / wish dear
old grandpa was here now Next day
Mrs. W was as we'll as ever. l
heard she has bought very fine gold
watch as a birthday present for Mr..
R. That's just the way "A woman
makes up after quarrel. No apol-

demonstration of affection. "-Bttfalo

Punning as a Psychological Study,

Punning, think, does not receive
enough attention. In spite of DR..
Johnson's well-known dictum, We
should not despise punning. Sydney
Smith says it is the foundation of all
wit Surprising three degrees of evo-
luton, submit that punning is the
least evolved system of joking, that
wit is evolved out of punning, and
that humor is evolved out of wit
Everybody has heard of Sydney
Smiths remark-that it requires a
surgical operation TO get joke into
the head of Scotcnman. But he
spoke without distinguishing. The
Scotch have a great appreciation of
those highly-evolved jocosities dis
playing the humorous, although, no
doubt, scorn of simple, lowly-
evolved jocosities, such as plays on
words. 1t is difficult to form con-
ception of Scotch punster. Yet
have heard an Aberdonian, a physi-
clan of worldwide reputation, make a
pun.
Punning is we'll worthy of the psy-
biologists attention. | seriously mean
that the analysis of puns is a simple
way of beginning the methodcal anal
ysis of the process of normal and abb
normal mentation. This. | think,
can easily show. Vision is stereo-
scopic; in sense it is slightly dip

images, although there seems to be
but one external object, as we call it.
To borrow the ophthalmologocal term,
we can say that mentation is ''stereo-

as there is visual diplopia, so there is

Now | come back to punning. We
all have "mental diplopia" when hear
ing the answer to riddle which de-
ponds on pun-"When is little girl
not little grip" Answer: when
she is a little horse (hoarse)." The
feeble amusement we have in the
slightly morbid mental state thus in
duced is from the incongruous ele-
mcnts of a ''mental diplopia." The
ord ''hoarse" rouses in us the idea
of "a little girl who has taken cold, and
the same-sounding word ''horse"
rouses in us the idea of well-known
quadruped at the same time. We
