THE PRISONER WAS ASLEEP.
A Remarkable Case of Hypnotism Comes
To Light in a Paris Police Court.

A Remarkable Case Of Hypnotism Comes
To Light in Paris Police Court.
We read frequently Of judges falling
asleep during the hearing Of "A case. but
for prisoner 10 be slumbering peace
fully during the whole Of his trial is
probably an unprecedented occurrence.
This curious spectacle was witnessed i'm
the Tenth police court Paris, where a
man named Emil David was charged
with illegally per~ouatiug barrister
and common swiudliu-
After giving Dbl, name in answer %
the magistrate, the defendant ceased TO
reply to the question put to him, and
his counsel explained 10 the court that
David was fast asleep, although his
eyes were wide open.
The magistrate was, Of course. rather
suspicious Of such an explanation. and
in order 10 prove that his client was
not shamming Maitre Raynaud placed
his hands before the prisoners eyes and,
drawing them slowly back, caused him
70 get up and leap over the barrier
which separated the dock from the
court. He was red back 10 his seat,
but it was found quite impossible TO
awake him.
The trial, however, was proceeded
with and Maitre Raynaud, in David's
defense, explained that he was a high
ly hysterical hypnotic subject, and
that at times he would remain for long
periods in what is known as the auto
matte ambulatory" stage of the disease.
This means that the patient, although
in a state of complete somnolence, acts
like an ordinary individual, and can
travel, carry on a conversation or play
cards without any one suspecting that
he is asleep. On awakening, however.
he is entirely unconscious of what he
has done while in that condition.
This David on one occasion travelled
from Paris to Treyes without being
conscious of doing so, and on recover
ing his senses discovered that he had
lost his overcoat, with d sum of money
in one Of the pockets.
He had no recollection as TO where
he had left the garment, but some
months later. on telling his story 10 a

communicated with and the story
found 10 be- perfectly correct.
The hearing of tine case was terIni-
mated some time before David could be
awakened. and the passing of the sen
tence was delayed for two hours, as
the court did not wish 10 condemn
sleeping man.
Finally. when he recovered his senses,
the prisoner was informed that on ac-
count of his extraordinary temperament
his oiiense would be visited only with
a penalty of one months imprison-
