The Chinese legation seems always To be
able to furnish interesting matter for so-
cial gossip, in the most innocent fashion,
of course. This time the latest bit of in
teresting data from this source is To the ef-
feet that the two small children, the in
rant child OF the minister and that of one of
the attaches, have eDecomeemancipated from
the swaddling clothes of their native land
and, so far as their outward garments
are concerned, have blossnmed out into full
fledged Americans.
The change has only recently been made
and the respective mothers of the child
rem, as well as their nurses, seem charmed
with the new order of things. The Chi
nese love of color has been given due promi-
nence in the change, for the garments of
the little ones, instead of being white, as
is generally the case, are vivid blues and
pink. Thus arrayed, the Chinese babies,
who are generally displayed on the front
steps of the legation together, look like
miniature Girofle-Glroflas.

HYPNOTIC TOOTH PULLING.
Successful Experiment Upon n Lady
of This City.

Successful Experiment Upon n Lady
of This City.
DR.. C. Fl. White, adentist, Thursday evening
extracted tooth for Mrs. May Seabright
of No. 1847 Seventh street northwest,
while the patient was under the hypnotic
influence.
The operation was performed at the resi-
dence OF Mrs. Mcdonald, No. i07 G street
northwest, in the presence of about 1 so
people, who had been invited to witness the
experiment The result was in every way
successful.
After the patient had been hypnotized
DR.. White took his own time in drawing
the tooth and made several tests to ascertai in
II there was possibility of causing pain.
He repeatedly inserted lance in the gum
but Mrs. Seabright did not feel it.
Although but one tooth was extracted,
DR.. White feels certain that he could have
drawn every tooth in the head without
causing pain.
DR.. White believes that hypnotism Will
eventually be made of great service i'm all
kinds or surgical operations. He expects
within a short time to experiment with a
person who has large number of teeth
to be drawn.
He thinks the only draw back to success in
such cases would be a strong wi He'd indi-
vidual who would resist rather than en-
courage the hypnotic influence. This, he
feels, is the only reason why it would not
be practical success in surgery,

Violation of It's Rules

Replying to recent communication

while attendance at a political conven-

cause for removal from membership in any
