At such moment as this it is proper that
Mr. Blounts friends should rally round him.
Blount Is the victim Of the policy that failed.
lie did not conceive that policy. He probably
never conceived anything. He once preached

he got it from n patent medicine almanac.
Nevertheless. certain thoughtlcss persons are

In the case OF the oder operagoers that influence
was subtle. but TO great many II acted as an
elemental power. These formed the younger more
impressionable and more enthusiastic element. The
German seasons did nothing 70 disclose any

UE1STRTNG UILLTCINITIONS.

Professor Ladd DR. Scripture and several
other erudte members of the faculty of Yale
have been studying the historical side of the
phenomena and scope Of dreams. Authorizations
and hypnotsm. They have made such extraor>
dinary progress In these Investigations that
Dr. Scripture is quoted by a Herald" CORE
spoadent as saying that "the experiments of Or.
Charcot Of La Saltpetrere. and Dr. Luys. OF
Southern France, are 'parlor science mere
chllds play compared to what will be done in
the United States during the coming few years
relative TO the investigations on the phenomena
of Authorizations. hypnotsm and dreams. The
scope and desire Of the French school has not
been go progressive as it should be- and most
of the scientific results will. think. come from
Investigations in laboratories in American uni
versties."
Such progress has been made ut Yale that now
DR. Scripture assisted by pr Bliss, will enter

that this experiment may conversely become
a practical test Of a persons imaginative
