How . Baby's Mind Opens

In the last volume of the "Eituca-
ton Series" on "Ths Development Of
the Intellect" II. w. Brown hos pre-
sented a conspectus ofthe oblsrva-
tions of Prof. Preyer on the mind of
the child, which chronologically the
gradual development of the senses,
intellect and will of the growingchild
and presents ina condensed form the
result Of great number of ss,reful
observations. 1t is recorded that
sensibility to light, touch, teuspera-
ture, smell and taste are present ON
the first day of infant life. Hear
ing, therefore, is the only if)ecial
sense which is not active at this time.
The child hears by the third or
fourth day. Taste and smell are
senses atdirst most active, but they
are not differentiated. General Or
ganic sensations of we'll being or dis
comfort are felt from the first; but
pain and pleasure, as mental g1ates,
are not noted until at or near the
second month.
The first sign of speech n the
shape of u%tterance of consonant
sounds is heard in the latter part of
the second month, these consonants
being generally "m," r." ''g," st."
All the movements of the eyes be-
come coordinate by the fourth
month, and by this time the child be-
gins to have the ~"feeling of SELF"
that is, he looks at his own hands
and looks at himself in the mirror.
The study ofthe childs mind during
the first year shows conclusively
that ideas develop and reasoning
processes occur before there is any
knowledge of words or of language,
though it may be assumed that the
child thinks in symbols, visual or
auditory, which are clumsy equiva-
Tents for words. By the end OF the
year the child begins to express it.
self by sounds-that is, speech be-
gins. The development of this
speech capacity is, according to
Preyer, in accordance with the de-
velopment of the intellectual powers.
By the end of the second year the
child's power of speech is practically
acquired.

How they Catch Fish in Georgia,
Recently it was our pleasure to

Recently it was our pleasure to go
a-fishing with a party on Alapaha,
near Grover, and see how fish are
caught the "new way" From four
to six men go into the water with a
log in front of them, and a sheet
with one edge on the. log and the
other edge held up by the men so
fall on the sheet. The log is pushed
along to the land, and when near it
the fish begin to try to make their
escape back to the deep water by
jumping. If they fail to make agood
leap they lodge on the cloth, thereby
becoming victims of their own de-
s~truction. It is amusing to see how
they jump. It is supposed that
about three hundred pounds were
caught-Abbeville Is. c. Times.

A Snake.C Charming Story.

A singular instance ofsnake-charm-
ing is reported by Maj. Schiller de
Buol, Of Galena, I'll. A few days ago
the major started out in search of q
hen which had a nest in some weeds
q short distance from the barn. At
ter a protracted hunt he suddenly
came npon tho hen in q bunch Of
brush, and was surprised to observe
that she made no attempt to get
away, but stood perfectly still and
was trembling and shaking as il with
the ague. The next instant he espied
q huge rattlesnake q few feet away,
but which evidently had charmed the
hen. The major was not long in dis
patching the reptile, and then en-
deavored to drive the hen away, but
could not induce her to move. At
last De Buol took her in his arms
and carried her to the barn. The
strangest part of the case developed
next day, when the charmed hen laid
an egg, coiled about the shell Of
which was the exact representation
of q snake. The phenomenon was
repeated the second and again the
third day, the mark or fold on each
Of the shells being plainly discernible.

10 ID now too late for Gov. Merriam to
pardon Bob Younger, even were he so in

This announcement will surprise nobody,
Bob's low condition from the ravages Of con-
sumption for the east few months being
well known. Sunday evening was the be-
ginning OF the end. Bob became. rapidly
worse, and from that time until his death
was unable to take nourishment OF any sort,
beinR unable to swallow. He received in
the prison hospital the very best nursing, his
sister and brothers being with him con-

vision of the state law in
force at that time, which read that

saved their necks by q plea Of guilty, and but
little time elapsed ere their incarceration in
the walls Of Stiilwater's prison for life. Bob's
account with the state is now fully settled,
while his brothers Cole and Jim remain to
drain the cup of expiration to the lees. A
strenuous effort was made a few months ago
by prominent Missourians, backed by ex-Gov.

self was; yet if the revolver she OBJ
tanned from the car had not been taken
from her she would have done her ut
most to have dispatched Field and
would have called it vengeance.
Thwarted in this she has procured
from a magistrate a warrant for the
arrest of the justice on the charge Of
murder. To obtain it she was neces-
sary guilty of gross perjury. If the
warrant be served the examining mag
istrate will be compelled to discharge
the prisoner simply for lack of incrim-
in rating evidence. Field had no hand
whatever in the ARRAY. He himself
made no resistance. Numerous wit
nesses Of the homicide have told the
whole story. Mrs. Terry's legal attack
upon the justice is Is wanton and dis
creditable as was her husbands phys
ical assault. The history of the wo-
mans career discloses her as a violent
and: dangerous person who ought not
be at large and who will certainly
abuse any leniency which may be
shown her. She is animated by deadly
hatred of Judge Field for no better
reason than that he had rendered q
judicial decision adverse to a prepos-
ferrous claim and because of her out
rageous conduct when the decision was
made and the violence of her lawyer,
who was also her husband, sentenced
both to Imprisonment for contempt Of
court. The affidavit which this wo-
man falsely made in order to procure
a warrant for the arrest Of Justice
Field renders her liable to the pains
and penalties of perjury and affords
opportunity for her prosecution that
ought not be neglected.
The deputy marshal whose revolver
put an end to the ~truculent career OF
Terry is held to answer for the homi-
eide. This is proper. It will be proper
also on trial to acquit him. He was in

dom crieth without; she uttereth her voice in
the streets. Proverbs l., 20. He said:
We are all ready to listen to the voices Of
nature, the voices of the mountain, the voices
of the sea, the voices of the star. As in some
of the cathedrals in Europe there is an organ
at either end Of the building, and the one
instrument responds unsteady to the other,

In the first place the street impresses me

city is jarring with wheels, and shutting with
feet, and humming with voices, and covered
