G. c.. B. in the Chicago Record.
A mighty giant once there was,
a gentle giant he;
Whom all men loved where er he went
And none was known to flee.
He lived within a castle fair,
And great as he was strong,
And those who passed when he was there
Could hear happy song.
His heart was Kind, his hand was free,
His soul was set to mirth,
And all men said: TITS JOY to live
With him upon the earth.
His face was bright with pleasant smiles
His laugh was good to hear;
While round about him everywhere
Twas summer an the year
Swift flew the time; the giant grew
Full old and weak of frame;
One day unto the castle fair
Another giant came.
And as the gentle giant wanad
The other waxed in might:
= man of solemn rnien was he,
Nor glad unto the sight.
The castle old, grew silent, cold.
Nor any mirth came out,
And where the summer long had smiled
The winter stalked about.
And all men passed another way
whenever that they could;
They dreaded him as they had loved
The merry giant good.
No song was ever on his lips.
His eyes were hollow lights
The castle seemed a haunted pile,
And dark and chill o. nights
And round about il rose the wave.
And 10! an island where
The gloomy giant dwelt alone,
The picture of despair
And those who knew the giants twain
The truth with tears confess:
"They brothers were-and one was Grief
And one was Happiness"

rately and dramatically pictured. 1t has

Mr.. Levi P. Morton. ex-vice President
of the United States and republican can
didate for governor of New York, is
into a snarl that may result in alternating
from him the affections of quite number
of voters. Mr.. Morton is charged with
having recently imported a coachman
from England under contract and in de-
fiance of the statutes in such case made
and provided. John James Howard, the
coachman In question, is the very per-
son who gave the thing away. And now
John James will have to go back to his
own country, and Mr.. Morton will have to
face suit for importing him. The pen
atty for bringing in alien laborers I'M
der contract is fine of $1,000. The amount
of the fine would be a bagatelle to
Mr.. Norton but it would probably cost
him lot in votes to be convicted of will
fully disregarding the laws of his coun-
try.

/ The hypnotism craze appears to have

/ results obtained by Mr.. Neukomm, the
| German hypnotist. with Miss Solomon as
/ a subject-the young woman, it will be re-
membered, died while under the hypnotic
| influence host OF rash and grewsome ex-
I periments have been attempted or pro-
/ jected.
A story of the most creepy" of the exI
periments yet suggested comes by cable
from Buda-P esth, the Hungarian CAPT
tai 1t will be nothing more nor less
than an attempt to carry hypnotic in
huence beyond death and make severed
head speak. Dr. Bernheim, professor of
hypnotism and nervous speciaIties in the
College of Medicine at Nancy, has long
been impressed with the belief that the
severed head of a criminal at the gull
lotine could be made to respond to a ques-
ton and the life could be retained in it
if the man were hypnotized before death.
So strong has this belief been with him
that he has experimental, so far as pos
sible, with lesser animals and has OBJ
tanned permission from the authorities to
test his theory upon the next criminal
brought for execution.
The method the doctor proposes to
adopt is to place the person in an hyp-
motto, or cataleptic condition, and thus
have the brain so thoroughly under con-
troll that its every thought and pulsation
shall be guided absolutely by his will.
Just before the criminal is taken to the
place of execution this hypnotic power
will be exerted and the action, in walking
to the guillotine and all the revolving de-
tails that accompany that last scene will
be entirely automatic. so far as the pris-
oner is concerned. When the head is
removed the influence will be at once
exerted by the hypnotist, and the brain,
whether it be then dead or alive, will be
commanded to force a recognition in
some manner as to whether or not it re-
tains consciousness.
DR.. Bernheim claims that the strength
of the influence will be sufficiently great
to compel the head, even in the presence
of death. to make response to the call
upon it. He claims that the process of
Inconsistencies and the entire absence
from the mind of the imaginative or even
the comprehensive quality, will arrest the
progress of death for a sufficient time to
enable the mind to work out reply to
the question that will be put to it as
quickly as possible after tho knife has
fallen.
How soon this experiment can be made
is not now stated, but it may be certain
of a most attentive audience spread over
the entire world
