A NOVEL INVENTION
Machine For TESTING
SWiftneSS Of Action.
SERIES OF EXPERIMENTS.
Inventor Assisted in the Trials by Col

NEW HAVEN, Dec. 18-Dr. Scriptures

action Of mind and muscle had practical
Test last night.
DR.. p. f. O'Connor Of Columbia college,
champion swordsman of America In the
saber class, DR.. Crane Hammond, cham
pion of the duel list class; DIR. Jacobs OF
the New York Athletic club, and DIR.
Postel, the newly appointed instructor Of
fencing at Yale, were taken individually
and put through number OF movements
which called into play all the alertness
claimed for experienced fencers.
The object of the experiments was, as
DR.. Scripture expressed it, to ascertain
the relative swiftness of action by swords
men In response to a given signal. Mind,
muscle and nerves were alike tested In
the experiments which followed. In all
Of them the eye was used as the agency by
means Of which the signals were perceived.
Dr. Hammond Victor.
The first series of experiments were for
the purpose Of discovering how many ao-
curate lunges could be made by a fencer
with a foil at given disk. DR.. Hammond
bore of the palm for accuracy of action.
Nine OF his 10 lunges were perfect, and the
best his nearest competitor could do was
TO score eight out of possible TO-
The second series Of experiments were
made with foils to complete an electrical
circuit, and thus the exact time of the
movement from one place to another
could thereby be noted. In this series the
time was taken to the l-l0Oth part of q
second.
The third series was to effect an accu-
rate record Of the quickness Of the action
Of the mind In following given signal.
In response to the signal the foil was
moved to the right, left and up and down
rs quickly as the mind could react, and
the exact time required was noted.
In only the first series was the result
announced. DIR. Scripture is footing up
his records and will announce his result
later. He said that the experiments
would assuredly decide some Of the vex-
Ing and mooted questions of his science
when accurately compiled.
