An Attempt to Bar Negroes Out of thu
League.

An Attempt to Bar Negroes Out of tn 9
League.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Feb. 21.-The
League of American Wheelmen in ses-
sion today transacted much business.
1t was decided to allow one delegate to
the national assembly for every 400
members. An amendment designed to
eliminate negroes from the league, by
inserting the word "white' in the
constitution, was lost, not re-
ceiving the necessary two-thirds
vote. The vote was 100 for, 101 against.
At the afternoon session the question
was again brought up and section one
altered to provide that those wishing it
may allow negroes to become members
of the league, and those not desiring it
can bar them out. A number of racing
amendments were adopted. The annual
meeting will be held in Chicago next
August.

'au Forecasts

Public Opinion quotes the Philadei-
phia Times as saying that 1t is alto
gether probable that the line of battle
between the president and the senate,
of which so much has been said in the
last few days, exists only in the fancy
of perspicacious correspondents and in
the gossip of the hotel lobbies at Wash
ineton. That Mr.. Cleveland is likely
TO make his own appontments-ap-
pointments, that is, that satisfy his own
Judgment, even though they should
not always satisfy the individual pref
erences of members of eongress-there
is no need for anyone to tell us. That
he is going out of his way to make
needless antagonists and TO create
friction where it is his interest to avoid
it, not even the best-informed cores
pondent will persuade us.
Nor is there any indication that the
senate is minded to antagonize the
president. No doubt Mr.. Cleveland
would have been glad, as many other
Democrats would have been, to see
some of the committees made up lit
tie differently; but that is the senate's
business entirely, and that he has con-
cerned himself upon the subject is in
the highest degree improbable. As to
all the talk about the senate hanging
up nominations, that seems sufficiently
disposed of by the fact that as soon as
the committees got to work all the
nominations sent in were promptly re-
ported and confirmed. In fact, the
nominations that have been made thus
far have been of character that would
not admit Of opposition, even if sem
ators had the disposition attributed to
them. The president is taking his
time, but he is making his selections
for the important places with a great
deal of judgment. He will probably
disappoint good many senators by
his slowness IN making removals, but
as regards appointments the senate's
advice and consent is just as essential
as the presidents nomination, and the
assumption that there must be trouble
between them appears thus far to be
entirely gratuitous.

A HYPNOTIC IMPOSIER.
An Engiishnan Who Could DO Many Things
For Teachers of Hypnotism.

An Engfishman Who Could DO Many Things
For Teachers of Hypnotism.
The subject who came to me had been
shining light in the profession, and
have reason to know that he was ex-
ceptionally gifted, He had performed to
crowded Houses under several great
artists at the Aquarium, and elsewhere
in London and the provinces. He had
figured at select seances of scientific hyp-
notists. He had been privately operated
On by medical men anxiously seeking
after truth. And, by his own statement,
he had humbU ged them all. What
proof had |, then. that 10 was not hum
bugging me? Ample proof, He offered,
in the first place, to do under my direc-
ton everything which he had done in
public and private seances when under
supposed hypnotic control. contem-
plated, in the first instance, accepting
this offer and giving demonstration to
a select circle, and it was solely owing to
myself that this was not done.
As a preliminary, ] asked him TO ex-
hibit few of his powers for my private
edifcation. Hecomplied without hesita-
ton. He first of all passed himself into
the 'cataleptic" state and lay on the
floor rigid. Two members of my staff
took him in this condition and laid him
across the backs of two chairs-the back
of his head resting ON one and his heels
on the other. He remained so for several
minutes. On pass being made over
him with the hand, his body became
arched upward or downward. Two
fairly robust individuals next sat on his
body, and the ''cataleptic" supported
them without signs of inconvenience.
He then himself thrust needle into his
arm and through the lobe of his ear, to
prove that he was insensible to pain while
in the cataleptic state.
Next he showed how one side of his
face could be drawn down by toothache
("suggested" by the operator), while the
other side was distended in a broad grin.
Again, at the suggestion" of the oper
ator, the grin and the toothache changed
sides, and so on. He offered to swallow
an ounce of cayenne pepper in glass of
water, but unfortunately ] had no cay
enne pepper at hand | asked him
whether he could take a wineglassful of
ipecacuanha, and he professed readiness
to do it at once. The cayenne pepper
could partly understand. 1t would be
mere question of standing certain
amount of pain. But l asked him how
he managed to control the effect Of the
ipecacuanha. I'VE only do it for a
time" he said. "You can learn to do it
with practice, like the rest of the tricks,
But we always bring the stuff up after
the performance.
He also expressed his readiness to
drink oil. Among novel tricks which
he offered to perform was that of SLOW
ing" the pulse while under hypnotic infu-
ence. OF this he claimed to be the orig
inal inventor. asked him whether all
the subjects" were equal imposters.
"All," he said. He knew them all per-
sonally and would answer for them. He
ridiculed the mere suggestion that there
could be anything genuine in hypnotism,
whether in Paris, London or anywhere
else, but here he may have spoken be-
yond his knowledge. London Truth.

As TO Land Ownership.

Professor Alfred Russell Wallace
shows to advantage the goodness of his
heart if not the greatness of his head in
his paper in The Arena entitled 1.-THE
Social Quagmire and the Way Ont" By
the social quag1nire Professor Wallace
means the wide extremes Of wealth and
poverty between which civilized peoples
now founder. The rule in all countries
is increase of wealth with increase of
want" Fifty years ago there was prac-
tically no real pauperism in the United
States. Since 1910 bur wealth has in
creased tenfold, our population not quite
fourfold. This ought to bring greater
ease, comfort and leisure to all the peo-
pie. 1t has not done so. While our
population as whole has increased less
than fourfold, our pauper population has
increased ninefold.
In 1910 we had practically neither
millionaires nor paupers. Now we have
over 1000 milhonaires and hundreds OF
thousands of paupers. The wealth that
should have gone to add to the comfort
of the whole people is being gathered in
the hands of the few, enabling them to
live in a luxury that not even Solomon
knew anything about.
These are the facts in our case, and
there is no gainsaying them. The evil is
on the increase; that all must admit
Unless something is done TO check it
thoughtful persons believe it will end in
the rising of an overwhelming army of
paupers and discontents who will some
day crush out in desperate struggle the
millionaires and overthrow this repub-
lie. Undoubtedly many of the rich
themselves would be glad to see Ameri-
cas- wealth more equalized.
Professor Wallace, following the wake
of Henry George, believes it is land mo.
nopoly that has caused the discrepancy
He would have the land revert to the
government and be let out by it to those
persons only who win occupy and till it.
He says it is largely the great bonanza
farms Of the west that have come into
competition with the small farmer and
destroyed him. This point is, however,
not quite clear to others than Professor
Wallace. AS one remedy the professor
would have laws made either abolishing
the heirship in the land inheritance, or,
if not that, at least prohibiting any heirs
other than direct ones from inheriting
land. Lands included in the prohibition
would then gradually revert to the gov
eminent, which could lease them out at
small rent proportional to their value 10
actual tillers and occupiers
Whatever we may think of Professor
Wallace's remedies, it is clearly against
public policy for orr country to be di-
vided into two classes-milliorfaires and
Daupers
