and martyrs of old is that the former lives

and we'll satisfied at that, when they got
wild honey and raw locusts. Besides, they

Indian murderers, were hanged at the Court

where the bones were discovered months
later by another Indian. to whom Pascale
admitted the crime. The bones were identi-
fed by remnants of clothing, and Pascale
was arrested.
Antley's crime was participation in the
murder OF three white prospectors, McDon-
aid, Seeley and Thompson, in the fall of
1887 at Wolf Creek, near Tobacco Plains.
The prospectors were surprised at their
campfire by party of six Kootenai Indians
and murdered in cold blood. Two Of the

HYPNOTIC INFLUENCE.
Medical Hen Discuss Its Merits at the
Eyfaud Trial.

PARIS, Dec. 19.-In the Eyraud trial to-
day, DR.. Liegeois, the head of the Medical
Faculty College of Nancy, and believer in
hypnotization, explained his ideas on the SUBJ
ject, and expressed surprise that he had
not been allowed to see Mile Bompard for
the purpose of aSceltaining to what degree
she is susceptible 20 hypnotic influence. The
prisoner ought again to be put to sleep by
mesmerism in order to revive her recollec-
tion of the facts occurring at the moment of
her confession of the crime. According to
the Indictment, Eyraud had not been able to
put Mile. Bompard to sleep, yet she had been
proposed amenable TO the hypnotic influ-
enco OF Garanger, having revealed the crime
TO him while hypnotized. For his UiegeoisD
part, if he were a Judge, bearing In mind
previous miscarriages of justice, he would
rather cut off his hand than pronounce SEN
tence upon Mile. Bompard.
hen the sensation which this declaration
caused had subsidrd, the procurcur asked
by what scientific means it was determined
whether hypnotic sleep is real or simulated.
Liegeois replied that subject who has been
really put to sleep can bear without betray-
ing any symptoms of sensibility to pain, pin
prlcks in various portions of the body. DIR.
Brouardel was then called and said he had
little esteem for the theories of hypnotism.
Llegois' statements wanted scientific proof.
Brouardel was not in favor of again hypno-
tlZlng the prisoner. He did not wish to run
the risk of letting the audience hear revela-
tions that might be surprised out of the
accused. Doctors Mollet and Ballet shared
his views. They thought the case too COM
pl!cated to have been committed under
hypnotic influence.
Mile. Bompard's counsel and counsel for
Eyraud jointly requested that the woman be
hypnotized in open court. The judges, after
consultation, refused the request
