An E~ngiishman VIII Could Do Many Things
For Teachers Of Hypnotism.

az Engiishman Who Gould Do Many Things
For Teachers of Hypnotism.
The subject who came to me had been
q 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 humbugged them all. What
proof had I, then, that he 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 a 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 a few Of his powers for my private
~edification. He complied 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 80 for severaI
minutes. On a pass being made over
him with the hand. his body became
arched upward Or downward. Two
| fairly robust individuals next sat OF hi
body, and the "cataleptic" supported
| them without signs of inconvenience
| He then himself thrust a needle into hi,
arm and through the lobe Of his ear, tx
| prove that he was insensible to pain whilt
in the cataleptic state.
Next he showed how one side OF hi
face could he drawn down by toothach'
| c'suggested" by the ~operator), while TIN
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 a glass o
water. but unfortunately ! had no cay
enne pepper at hand. l. asked hin
whether he could take a wineglassful c
~ipecacuanha, and he professed READINGS
to do it at once. The cayenne pepper
could partly understand. 1t would b
a mere question of standing q certain
amount of pain. But | asked him how
he managed to control the effect of tn
i~pecacuanha. I'VE only do it for
time" he said. ''You can learn to do
with practice. like the rest of the tricks
But we always bring the stuff up afte
the performance"
He also expressed his readiness t
drink oil. Among novel tricks whic
he offered to perform was that of .'slow
ing" the pulse while under hypnotic icfI
ence. OF this he claimed to be the oriQ
inal inventor. | asked him whether a.
the subjects" were equal imposter:
"All," he said. He knew them all pei
sonally and would answer for them. ii
ridiculed the mere suggestion that ther
could he anything genuine in ~hypnotisn
whether in Paris. London Or anywher
else, but here he may have spoken b
yond his neutrality-suspicious. Truth.

There are prosaic men and women,
and there are matter of fact dogs. For
purely business purposes they are often
the best.
We once owned an excellent retriev'
ing spaniel of the simple order of mind.
without u grain of humor. This dog ac'
companied us unasked when we wanted
to shoot a ba.lfinch in the garden ia
stuff. The gun wen off. and the poor
bullinch dropped.
Now. this dog had been used, when
the gun was fired, to go and look for q
dead or wounded rabbit. So, instead
of looking under the apple tree, he dis.
appeared into the hedge, and in a few
minutes he returned with a rabbit in his
mouth So much for the value of o
matter Of fact dog.-London Spectator

Second in importance as a seaport in
South Africa is Port Elizabeth, ON the
east coast, about 500 miles from Cape
Town. This is the nearest port to the
diamond fields at Kimberley, and to this
and similar advantages of location Port
Elizabeth owes its Importance. 1t is
situated on Algoa bay, which is little
better than an open roadstead and affords
most t~reacherous anchorage during the
southeast gales which frequently pre-
vail on this coast. On Sept. /, 1883, /
wrecked in Algoa bay, while four steam
ers rode ont the storm. The entire popu-
lation assembled on the beach, but they
could do nothing to ave the doomed
vessels.
East London is the only port between
Port Elizabeth and Durham, q distance
| of about 400 miles. The steamers sail
very close to the wild but picturesque
shores of Kaffraria. The water here is
very deep, but the coast is strewn with
wrecks. Here in the last century occur
red the celebrated wreck Of the Grosve-
nor, and only a few weeks ago asteamer
ran ashore near Durham, and the passen-
gers and mails were landed with diff
Guilty.
Durham is one Of the prettiest towns
in South Africa and is so reported by
no less an authority than Mr.. Rider Hag-
gard, who lived there for several years.
His favorite hero, Allan Quatermain, is
represented as having fitted out at Dur
ban for many of his famous hunting ex-
petitions. Natal (of which Durham is
the only seaport) has a most salubrious
climate and is of the most prosper
Gus Of South African colonies.
For centuries South Africa has lain
dormant, first under the blighting in.
fiuence Of Portuguese possession, second
under the dwarfng domination of the
Beers. While America has p~rospered
p~rodigiously in the possession of unlimit.
ed commercial opportunities, South AT
RIGA has been hampered by the lack Of
navigable rivers and good harbors. But

rs per lent belong to the native and col.
ored classes. Cape Town has a popula.
ton of 81 ,oe3, Port Elizabeth has %, 052,
East London, 6,s5S, and Kimberley (the
seat of the diamond mines), 2S.643. Ma
tai has 90, 063 square miles. In 1901 the
population was 543, 913, of which 46, 7Ss
were whites, Al, 142 Hindoos and ass
9SS natives. The principal towns of Ma
tai are Durham and Pietermaritzburg.
The former has a population of 5000 Eu-
ropeans. and the latter has 9,251. The
Hindoos of Natal have been imported
from India by the government to work
the sugar and coffee plantations. Cape
Colony has about IA, Malays, who
were brought from Batavia many years
ago. They are strikingly different in
dress, customs and habits from the rest
of the inhabitants and form a very pic
turesque element of the population.
Alone among the savages of the world
the great Zulu Kafir race refuses to re-
treat before the advances of civilization.
They are of a higher type than the Amer
lean Indians or Australian aborigines
and by some have been reckoned supe-
rior to the Hindoo and Malay races. The
Kaffirs were once very warlke. but IN
der the benefcent influences Of white as
cendancy they have settled down to the
pursuits of peace and are multiplying to
an alarming extent. It is said that the
Kaffir population from the Limpopo to
the sea has trebled itself by natural in
crease alone within so years.
Cape Town is one Of the most pictur-
esque places in the world and is unique
in its environments. 1t is hemmed in
ON three sides by lofty mountains and
fronts on Table bay, n of the finest
harbors on earth. Immediately m the
rear Table mountain rises precipitate.

and is frequently covered by q white
cloud called the table cloth. At the

Apostles. and at the left Devils Peak

The street scenes in Cape Town are
extremely interesting. There is q mot
ley population Of Europeans, Africans
and Asiatics. and the confusion of Dutch
and English architecture is novel and
edifying. There T imposing public

A Reminiscence of Fanny Kemble.


The late Fanny Kenible is remembered
by old residents of Germantown and
Philadelphia as a superb horsewoman.
She had a fiery temper, which matched
that of her husband, Pierce Butler, and
speedily brought about what is still one
one of the most noted divorce trials re-
ported in the law books. In her youth
she was remarkably beautiful, andin the
role OF Juliet she was the ~personifca.
ton of dazzling loneliness. She wa not.
ed for her keenness of wit wen in the
days of her old age. Once, when an i'm.
pertinent street lounger stepped up te
her while she was looking in the window
of a bric-a-brac store and said, Are you
fond of antiquities" Mrs. Kemble quick
ly unpinned her veil and turning ON tht

Truly this is the age of rapid evolu-
ton. Five years ago when | went to
South Africa it was necessary to take a
sailing ship from New York, and 81
days were consumed in the passage to
Durham. The only steam route availa-
BILE to the traveller was by way of Eng
land. an expensive and roundabout jour-
ney. Now the tourist may embark at
New York on q comfortable steamer and
proceed directly to Cape Town, reach
ing that picturesque port in about 20
days and Natal five or six days later.
