sANDow WAS HYPNor1znD.
The Strong Man Was Weak Under Mes
meric Influence.

New YoRK, Feb. 23.-Sandow, the
strong man, met his match yesterday
for the first time. The meeting took
place in Sandow's rooms, in the pres
ence of several physicians and half
dozen medical students. DIR. G.. H.
Hersereau, a mesmerist, was the ap-
! pointment. Sandow sswent under, the
influence in a minute or SO, and there
after performed every act suggested by
the doctor, while himself not aware of
what he was doing. "You're weary,
Mr.. Sandow," said the doctor, and his
patient began to show signs of giving in
to the slight influence he was exerting.
s'You are going to sleep, your eyelids
are closing. Now you are asleep
Sure enough Sandow was apparently in
great slumber. In response to the
physicians suggestion he breathed hard
and finally his chest rose and fell like a
great bellows. "You can't raise your
arm; try it," commanded the doctor.
Sandow tried and failed. He strained
apparently with all his muscle power
and grew red in the face in his attempt
to elevate his right arm, but to no pur-
pose until the word was given, and then
it flew up like battering ram. Then
a fve-pound dumb-bell was produced
"Now, Mr.. Sandow, this dumb bell
weighs 400 pounds, and I don't think
you can lift it; in fact, Pm quite sure
you can't" said the doctor. Then the
strong man took hold of the baby bell in
the middle. He tried to pull it over
toward him, preparatory to raising it, as
he does usually with the one weighing
twenty-six times as much. He could
not stir 1t. He went through all his ex-
hibition motions, and to all intents put
forth all his tremendous strength. The
muscles upon his neck stood out like
bars of iron until they were as big as an
ordinary mans wrist, and he became
red and purple, and finally almost black,
but he was unable to badge the little
+ bell upon the floor. Then the trick was
changed. One of the l30-pound bells
had been taken to the house, and it was
brought out. "Here," said the doctor,
sis one that only weighs five pounds
see how easy it is for You to swing it."
Urged on still by the mysterious infiu-
bition of his trained powers as now when
he grasped the bar and put it above his
head with the utmost ease, as if ii had
been in reality one which weighed what
he had believed. When the test had
been carried out to everybody's satisfac-
ton, Sandow was restored to his normal
condition of mental and physical
strength. This required about minute
and he was somewhat dazed for awhile
Then he complained of extreme lassi-
tude, and said the muscles of his back
and arms ached

NIAGARA FALLS, N. Y, Feb. 23.-Two
well-known travelling passenger agents
had an exiteing time here yesterday.
John E. Burke, of the Louisville & Nash
vile, and William Kelly, jr., of the Chi

the city on business. In company with
Local Passenger Agent B. d. Dennison
with the New York Central, they visit
ed the ice bridge. The party climbed the
ice mountain. and while on the brink
Burke's hat was blown off and began to
roll down the ice on the side of the
mountain toward the American falls.
Burke, without thinking of his danger
dropped down on his stomachto lean over
and secure the hat. He began to slip
down the side of the ice mountain to-
ward the whirling water and certain
death. He shouted "Help me-" and
Kelly, leaning over, caught his foot.
The ice was slippery, and Kelly lost his

BUFFALO SLAUGHTERED.
An Entire Herd Recently Kiled in the

BOISE, Feb. 22.-The Statesman has
information that a party of hunters re-
Gently slaughtered an entire herd of
buffalo in the Yellowstone Park. The
animals were chased into the country
where there was deep snow and then
shot down. The object was to secure
the heads, which command a high price.
As the three hunters were preparing to
haul away the heads they were captured
by soldiers, and are now in the guard
house at the Mammoth springs. Cap

Dennison, who is big. powerful man,
grabbed Kelly's legs, and thus the three
men formed loop over the top of the
mountain. Burke shouted ''For Gods

managed to get Kelly over to his side of

up. He brought his hat with him.

He was an excellent workman, but he
got tangled up in the political manipula-
ton Of 1892 and was so battered by the
operation that he did not matcrialize un-
til after the election Of 1893. But his
bump of knowledge had grown sufficient
ly large to balance his loss in weight, and
his wrath against some of his political
friends had served him for an overcoat.
After shying around the factory he enter

AN OBJECT LESSON.

Democratic Authority for the DclIo: That
this EIsil E.cctiong furnished q striICIn.
One to tie Party In Power.
There are occasions when the causes
that lead to the defeat OF u party arc
incxpl!cablc-whcn the result can be
traced to many and varying causes,
none of them clear or satisfactory. But
there is no more reason for installing
the cause of the democratic collapse at
the late election than there is for mis-
understanding the cause Of the demo
cratic victory in 1892. The party was
indorsed in 1899 because its platform
pledges embodied the demands and de-
sires OF the people. The party was de-
featcd in the late elections because its
representatives in congress, by rcfusin ?
to carry out the whole of the platform,
have left our currency system in Il
worse condition, 50 far as the interests
Of the people are concerned, than the
republicans left it in 1890.
That, and that alone, was the cause Of
the democratic collapse at the election.
All sorts of explanations will be made.
Plain facts will be distorted and logic
will be strained to make it appear that
the financial question: question that
has occupied the attention of congress
and the people for more than three
months, to the exclusion of all other
issues-has played an Insignificant part
or no part at all in the result.
1t is true the unconditional repeal of
the purchasing clause OF tho S1ernun
law has established the siUgic gold
standard, but if the party leaders are
wise enough to see in the results q the
election an emphatic disapproval OF the
single gold standard, the apparent col
lapse of the party will do more good
than it has done harm. The remedy
for the trouble is as plain as the cauge
of tine collapse.
1t is perfectly simple. Let the party,
at the first opportunity that presents
itself, proceed to carry out its financial
pledges, and thus demonstrate t. The
people that it stands by ita go!cinn
promises. The way to convince the
people that it proposes to carry out its
financial policy is to carry 1t out boldly
and vigorously.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From Our Regular Correspondent.) }

(ffou Our heguiaf COrfespondent.)
WASHINGTON, March ., 1S9l-Mr
Cleveland has been in pet ever since he
got back to Washington and discovered
the pitiabls plight OF the cuckoo free
traders in the Senate. He has stormed
and raved but it has all been to no pur-
pose; the free traders are still on the run,
and to day the prospect of the ultimate
defeat OF his tariff bill is brighter than
ever. The bit OF parliamentary legerde.
main by which the Senate took up the
Bland bill for the coinage OF the seignior-
age did not improve his state Of mind, as
the democratic party is even more divid-
cd on that measure than upon the tariff,
and if the Senate promptly passes it, ao
now seems probable, he will have 20
choose between vetoing it and breaking
his word, pledged by Secretary Carlisle
to tho New York bankers in order to
prevent the absolute failure OF the recent
bond issue.
1t must have caused Mr.. Cleveland,
Hoke Smith and Commissioner Lochren
many criticisms of the administration g
pension policy made on the floor of the
House while the pension appropriation
bill was under consideration. General
Sickles, one Of the few democrats in the
House who always stands up and fights
for those who fought for the country in
its hour OF need, made ringing speech
against the administration policy. He
began by quoting the declaration con
corning pensions from Mr.. Cleveland's '92
letter OF acceptance and declaring most
emphaticaliy that il that declaration had
been lived up to there would have been
no trouble. Gen. Sickles speech con
tanned q number of epigrams worthy OF
preservation. For instancs-"if you
would have good soldiers in tho next war,
take good care of the soldiers OF the past
war"-and, speaking Of compilation OF
pension laws issued by tho Pension
Bureau, which he held In his hand
They print them for other people TO read;
they ought to resd them themselves"
Gen. Sicl,les was particularly severe on
Commissioner Lochron for trying to
break down the act Of December 1893,
declaring pension TO be a vested right,
an act which Gen Sickles said will stand.
Gen. Grosyenor, Of Ohio, in a remarkably
strong speech ugainst the edmin;stra-
tons treatment OF old soldiers, paid his
respects to Mr.. Cleveland'B libel sbout
there being hundreds of thousands OF
fraudulent pensioners, and said: III
there are 200 fraudulent pensioners on
the roll, tho Commissioner ought to be
impeached for incfficisncy." Gen. Gros-
venor said he had been told by an official
OF the Pension Bureau that the most OF
the frauds on the roll had been placed
there by Commissioner Black, under the
Mexican veteran bill.

Referring to the recent extraordinary
session the Greeley Tribune says: If any
good populist has been despondent over
the divisions in his own party as to the
policy of calling the legislature together
in extra session, and the loss OF party
prestige that might possibly result from
it, let him take heart. The single
opportunity our enemies had to put US in
hole and permanently discredft us, was
lost the moment a republican majority of
the house failed to tal;e advantage OF
their position and did not adopt the
senate joint resolution for immediate
adjournment" The fertility of the aver
age populistic editorial brain is something
wonderful. According to the astute
writer of the above the republicans are al
fault because by reason Of few defec-
tions the house refused to concur in the
senate adjournment resolution and yet
the unanimous populist vote against the
same resolution is that party's crowning
glory.
