Horr Won Solomon, tho father Of the
dead Hifl, is one Of the great landed
p~roprietorB Of H0ngaly. A few months
ago Herr Won Solomon wrote an account
Of some Of Neukomm's experiments
with his daughter and others He said
in that article:
Having plunged them into ahyp-
MOTTO sleep, he caused them to forget
their mother tongue. At his command
they were unable to count more than
three or raise up a teaspoon from the
table. Ho put them back into the fifth
year Of their lives, from the fifth to the
eighth year, the twelfth year, and 30
ON. He spelled, wrote and read with
them as with children, and they con-
Quoted themselves after the manner CT
children Of the ages suggested. heu-
komm pressed q cold hairpin on my
daughters left hand and produced a
large burn. II Is remarkable that these
hypnotic experiments were productive
Of tho best effects on the health Of the
ladiea.
THE most exciting episode Of all
was the following: Ny daughter, while
in a hypnotic trance, suddenly uttered
q CRY and then began to speak as fol-
lows; 'Tt is now a quarter to 3 o'clock.
A thief has slipped into our dining
room. He has just placed himself before
the chest in which the silver is kept so
that he cannot be seen through the win
dow, He is putting things in his pocket
the sugar bowl, with the flower ON
tho lid the cofeepot the ~saltoellar.
He is gone into the drawing room. Now
he is in my room. He hears a noise. He
is creeping under the table. Now no is
under the sofa. Then she described his
fight. She told Of the pause he made
before leaving the house in order to ex-
anime the stolen objects. How he hid
himself in tho garden, returned and
then buried the silver vessels In the
garden.
1.-THE entire company was greatly ex-
cited on hearing this narrative. We
were not then in the castle, but at Nam
dok, and without delay we set out along
with Noukomm for the castle ct Tuszir.
The articles enumerated by my daugh-
ter were gone, and we found them in
the place she described.
ION a subsequent occasion we were
DESTROYS Of learning the name Of the
thief, but my daughter replied that
nothing must be done to render the man
miserable. We promised not to lodge
any information against him, but to
u assurances she made reply that the
soul trusts not human promises, but
does what it deems right. We who wit
messed all these things are under great
obligations to Herr Neukomm. He
caused pure sources Of water to spring
up where formerly there was none &c
drink; but, more than that, he has
shown as that the divine spark exists
within us, Of the Immortality Of which
We are all convinced today"
Herr Won Solomon has made no state.
