Senator Stanford at Palo Alto are in
tense rivals. Stanford Is mitch more

Hearst has started a movement the end
of which will be the eclipse OF STAN

Regent Reinstein believes that Mrs.

will have added to its wealth the sum
OF $4,O00,000. She will spend at once
5000, 900 for two new buildings. There

OUR SUBLIMINAL SELVES.

How Boy May he Cured of the Cigar

When somnambulist is put into the
hypnotic condition and then talks II
is found that the speaker is that same
personality which spoke and acted dur
ing the time Of ordinary somnambu-
nsm, showing that the personality
vnlch acts during ordinary somnambu-
llsm and the personality brought into
action by hypnotism are the same, says
the North American Review. This new
personality has of late become a sub
Ject OF great interest and persistent
study. Not only does it come into &C
tvity In ordinary somnambulism and
In the hypnotic condition. but also in
dreams, in reverie, in abstraction and
sometimes, apparently, in a normal pas
sive condition. The second personality
has been named the subconscious or

curious faculties which we have not

this subliminal self may be we have

this Is where the great power of sug-
gestion appears and is utilized. Sup
pose. then. the physician had patient
in the deep hypnotic sleep; the patient
hears nothing, perhaps feels nothing.
The physician then says to him: when
you awake you will take the book
which lies on the table, open it at the
forty-third page and read four lines
at the top of the page" He is then
awakened. He had heard nothing but
his subliminal self, which has been
made accessible by hypnousm, has
heard and influences him, to carry out
the suggestion. He goes to the table
and takes up the book, finds the forty
third page and reads the four lines at
the top Of the page; he has no thought
but that he is doing it all Of his own
accord. and SO he is-he is obeying the
impulses of his own subliminal SELF
Suppose the patient to be boy with
the cigarette habit and the physician
had suggested as follows: when you
awake you will no longer desire TO
smoke. On the contrary, the very
thought Of it will be disagreeable to
you and you will avoid it altogether"
He awakes, he knows nothing Of what
has transpired, but he finds he no long

Very wonderful are the experiments
Of Prof. Roberts-Austen ON the diff
fusion Of solid metals" The professor
has proved. for instance. that gold,
without being melted, will diffuse Its
atoms through mass OF solid lead. OF
course the amount Of diffusion Is slight.
but it is easily measurable. In some Of
the experiments cylinders Of lead about
two and three quarters inches in
length. with gold placed at the bottom.
were kept at high temperature-bu
no. high enough to melt either Of the
metals-for various periods of time. In
three days enough gold had passed up
ward through the solid lead to be de-
tected at the top of the cylinders! Gold
and lead kept pressed together for four
days. without being heated above ordi-
nary temperatures, were strongly unit
ed. Solid gold also diffuses in solid sil-
Yer and solid copper. These facts are
regarded as furnishing confirmation Of
the view long held by Prof. Graham
that 1.-The three conditions Of matter,
solid, liquid and gaseous. probably al
ways exist in every liquid or solid SUBJ
stance, but that one predominates over
the Others"

Going to Sharpsburg, he was
there employed three years by
Mr.. John P. Agnew. who owned
large blast furnaces. and thence
went to Briar Hill furnace in Ohio.
where he worked in various capacities,
finally learning the blacksmith trade,
and rising to the position Of assistant
foreman, before he had reached his 18th
wear. His business connected with the
furnaces was made careful study IN
all its details, and he mastered it, both
practically and scientifically.
Upon the opening Of the war OF the
rebellion his heart was stirred with pa
triotic ardor, and at the call Of Presi-
dent Lincoln for 100000 men he
promptly offered his services, enlisting
as a private in company A, 1O5th regi-
ment, Ohio volunteer infantry. Though
young in years he had a strong and
well-developed physique, and was natu-
rally of commanding spirit, qualities
and characteristics which at once led
to his appointment as a non-commis-
stoned officer.
He served faithfully in the numerous
engagements in which he took part,
until the battle of Perryville, in which
he received four wounds, being so Sc
riousy disabled that he was granted
en- honorable discharge from the army.

place 1t in the forefront of the worlds
universities, in point OF architecture
and eruditiOn. At a recent meeting
the board Of regents passed vote Of
thanks TO Mrs. Hearst, and Regent
Reinstein and Governor Budd sent her
personal letters expressing their graft

Hearst Is the widow of the late United
States Senator Hearst and mother of
the proprietor of the San Francisco
She is a most charming woman, and
was one OF the most popular ladies at
the national capital when her husband
was a member OF the upper house of
congress. Perfect hostess as she Is,
and much as she adorns society, Mrs.
Hearst Is not alone a society woman
she Is great deal more. She Is
level-headed business woman, thor
oughly understanding all the ms and
outs of her large mining and other in

in her dress and all personal belong

into mines and other 'choky," soiling
places, IL by doing so she can add to
her already large stock OF knowledge.
She has a warm heart. too. though she
tries to keep her heart subject to her
judgment and objects to being imposed
upon. She loves to give pleasure, and
does SO in many kindly, thoughtful
ways. Above all. she believes in fit

young men and women in those
branches of art best calculated to fit
them for the battle of life. She has

DR.. hansen, who returned last sum-
mer batiicd in his attempt to reach the
north pole. although he got nearer to
1t than any one else has ever been, re-
ports a fact which upsets some old
ideas about the Polar sea. He found
that the sea north Of Siberia is SHALLOW
in it's southern portion, averaging only
80 fathoms deep, but that above lati-
tude 20 deg. it suddenly becomes pro-
found, the bottom falling to depth OF
from 1000 to 1900 fathoms. II this ap.
plies to the entire polar basin, then the
north pole does not lie in shallow
water, a. many have supposed, but is
situated III the midst of a deep sea--a
fact which has bearing upon the prob.
lem Of how best to reach the pole.

Stories About Lord Randolph Churchin
In the Nineteenth Century these are.
some good stories told by Sir Algernon
West in an article ON Lord Randolph
Churchill as an Official" A treasury
clerk put some figures before the then
chancellor of the exchequer. Il wish
you would put them plainly SO that ]
can see them" said Lord Randolph.
The clerk remarked that he had done
his best, and pointed out that he had
reduced them to decimals. "Oh," said
the minister, Il could never under
stand what those dots meant" Once
when bimetallism cropped up at the
ley, Il forget; was a bimetallist when
l was at the India office?" There is a
tale which illustrates his abiding sense
of humor. Shortly after he had writ
ten a letter TO the Times violently at
lacking Earl Granville he was cross
ing the channel and was dreadfully
sick. How Granville would like to
see me now" he said. Sir A. West re-
calls the funeral service for Lord Ran
dolph at the Abbey, when he says: Il
could not but think sadly of what he
many a time said humorously, Mr..
Gladstone will long outlive me, and ]
often tell my wife what beautiful let
ter he will write on my death proposing
my burial in Westminster Abbey;
and Mr. Gladstone, as We all know, did
write to the Duchess Of Marlborough o
very noble letter Of coincidence.
