Thousands of people have waited for
the opening to the settlement OF that
portion OF the Indian territory known ss
Oklahoma, only to be disapE ointed.
There arc IN Oklahoma less than 1900
quarter Eeosions OF land to be occupied,
and more than 20 600 people have been
waiting for months ON the border for
the opportunity so cross the line. and
take possession. The whole of the land
will have been occupied within forty
eight hours OF the date set for the open
ing of that portion OF the Territory. con.
sequently thousands OF Intending set
tiers will have to seek elsewhere for
homes.
The two new states OF South and
North Dakota will reap n benefit from
this general exodus to the west. No
fairer country than Dakota exists. Hun
dreds OF thousands of acres of the best
government land are still open for free
settlement in Dakota. Cities, towns and
villages furnish a near end ready market
for the products OF the country. Rail-
ways innumerable traverse Dakota In
all directions and provide unequaled
transportation facilities. Schools and
churches abound everywhere. Dakota
is q new country no longer. The eli.
mate is excellent. The soil is highly
productive. Tue population is mostly
OF the best class of American citizens
who have zone thither from the older
eastern, middle and western states.
Every indncement exists for the farmer
and mechanic TO make o new home at
t:idipg cost, while the capitalist can se-
cure greater and quicker returns for
foanoial investments in Dakota than in
envy other state of the union.

A prnnheca Fnlalled.

If Carlyle predicted as far back as
1866 the greatness of Bismarck, his wife
is to be credited with prophetic instinct
in forecasting the baseness and ignominy
Pigott. In her diary, under date of
April ~. 1S45, occurs this entry: "Young
Mr.. Pigott will rise to be a Robespierre
of some sort. He will cause many heads
to be removed from the shoulders they
belong to, and will eventually have his
own head removed from his w shout
ders." AS an instance of successful
prophecy that passage is certainly re-
markable. Ii Pigott failed to become a
Robespierre of any recognized type-for
R~obespierre a be anything the biogra-
pher or historian chooses to make of
him-he certainly has cut off more heads
than poor. credulous Macdonald's, and
lost his own rs well.-New York Tribune.

NOTES ON HYPNOTlSM.

Results OF p DetiiIed Study of the Memo
.ry in tho Hypnotic State.
Dr. A. ias, writing IN the American
Journal OF I'sgch0logy has made n detailed
study OF the memory in the hypnotic state,
and summarizes his main conclusions some
what us follows: ~. During the hypnotic
sleep the subject remembers the expe-
rionces of his waking life as we'll as of pre-
vious hypnoses. (2). In hypnotism there
Is often an e:ialtation of the memory, and
at times change in its content, leading to
the assumption of a foreign personality.
49,. The memory of what has been going on
during hypnosis is usually lost, it can often
be revived by a simple suggestion, and at
times the memory of u suggested hallucina-
ton may linger on and influence the walk
ing condition. a.. The operator can. at his
viii, have any of the acts of the hypnotic
state remembered or forgotten by making
this a part OF a suggestion. 5). Suggesr
tion seems to be largely explicablo as un-
conscious memory. Dr. Cybulslsi has stud,
led the power of hypnotic subjects to hyp-
notiLc themselves. he finds that such sub
]octs strongly imagine for a minute or less
that the operator commands them to 20 to
sleep, and the desired result cnsues. Fur
tncrnlore, if The subject, on going to sleep,
imaSincs himself controlled by certain
person, then, even though another sent him
20 sleep, he will be subject to tho former,
ana not to the operator. These observations
show tho Importance Of the subjective ele-
ments IN the process of hypnotism, and in,
dicate the method by which the subject un-
consciously takes suggestions and acts
upon them DIR, Berlxhan has applied hyp-
notism to the amelioratlon of the hearing
