Inertia of the Nerves.

The researches and experiments Of
Messrs. Broca and Richet have led them
TO the conclusion that the cerebral nervous
system is incapable of perceiving more
than an average Of ten separate impress
sions per second. After each excitation Of
the nerves period of inertia follows, last
ing about one-tenth of second, and dur
ing this period new impression cannot
be made. According to the same authori-
ty, person cannot make more than ten
or at the most dozen separate voluntary
movements of any kind in a second, al
though the muscles, independently of the
will, are capable of making as many as 80
or 40.--Youths Companion.

KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS BAN
QUIET.

The banquet given by the members Of
Elko Lodge, Knights of Pythias to the
members OF the Grand Lodge Friday
night drew large crowd to the dining
room of the Depot Hotel.
Owing to the visiting mem bers wish
ing to leave for their homes on No. .,
the tables were set at an carly hour and
the knights and their ladies filled in
and set to work at ONCE slowing away
the eatables. When this was accom-
phshed, toastmaster Sherwood raped
for order and bid the members of the
Grand Lodge welcome. He the called
on W. d. Jones, Grand Chancellor, to
respond to the toast, "The Grand
Lodge This Mr.. Jones did, giving the
organization and work of the subordi
nate Lodge as connected with the Grand
Lodge. "The Endowment Rank" was
the next toast and was responded to by
j. d. Torreyson, Past Grand Chancellor.
Mr.. Torreyson gave the history of the
rank and urged upon his brother
Knights the necessity of becoming mem
bers of it SO that when they passed away
from the earthly domain to the grand
domain above they would leave some
thing for the loved ones left behind. J.
E. Bray, Past Supreme Representative,
replied to toast, "The Supreme Lodge"
He confined his remarks almost exclu-
sively to history of the struggle in the
Supreme Lodge for the recognition of
the Pythian Sisters and predicted that
the prejudices and conservatism of the
older members OF the Order would fall
before the advanced thought of the more
progressive, and that before many years
have passed the sisters would stand be-
fore the Pythian world clothed in all
their rights as members of the Order.
The next toast, "The Good of the Or
der" was eloquently replied to by Past
Grand Chancellor Huffaker. He gave
glowing account OF the good accomplish
ed by the: Knights and closed amidst
a storm of applause. Nick Hummel, Su-
preme Representative, was next called
on to respond to ''The Ladies'" Nick was
in his element, though bachelor, and
did full justice to his theme in the limi-
ted time at his command. He told fun
ny parable ending with the question,
''What are the the Ladies?' and the re-
ply, "God made them and He only
knows" He brought down the house.
The last toast, "The Uniform Rank"
was replied to by G.. A. Macpherson. He
gave an interesining statement of the
number in this rank in the State. This
completed the program and toastmaster
Sherwood dismissed the crowd.
The banquet was success in the
number present, the brotherly feeling
that prevailed and the general good time
everybody had. The Independent re-
porter absorbed 80 much of this good
feeling that he forgot to take notes and
has written this account from memory.
May the Knights prosper in Nevada in
proportion as they live up to the teach
ings OF the founder OF Their Order.-Elko
Independent.
