it the exteriorization of sensibility. -.
Several objections were raised On the
examination of the first proof of the
fingers efffuyia. Certain incredulouS
persons asked if the impressions pro-
duced on the plate of gelatinob bromure
did not result simply from the contact
of the fingers.
To answer these critics, DIR. Luis in
sulated two fingers, avoiding all con-
tact with the plate. The result was a
proof which bore their impressions like
the first and two others less developed,
but yet convincing
We may be sure, says the doctor, that
this process is likely to have prolific
results in physiology and in pathology.
1t is easy of application and is within
the reach of all persons who have an
elementary knowledge of photography.
The immersion can be effected in an
ordinary bath of 9-12.
One can thus record the variation of
the nervous force which is necessarily
given off from the digital extremities
of human beings. 1t varies according
to age, sex, the different periods of the
day and the state of emotion which
sets the human being vibrating.
The Saint Paul globe., 1897-09-27

eds, gave proof as curious as it is
instructive.
One saw the lines of the ends of the
fingers with the eff1uvia given off from
them like kind Of spray. On the
corner of the plate, in the upper left
hand corner. there appeared frag-
nlent of detached skin floating in the
bath, which emits effiuvia directly in
the form of vertical filaments. All the
little white points which were seen on
the black background of the proof rep
resented the dust of eff1uvia floating
in the bath of hydroquinone
DR.. Luijs did not stop there with his
researches. He proposed also to record
the effluvia of the eyes and the ears,
New experiments have given excellent
results in this respect, and even plates
Influenced from a distance registered
very faithfully the impressions felt.
1t goes without saying, says the emil
nent scientist in his report to the Sec
retary of Biology, that these new stud
les will give a new meaning to a series
of phenomena long known as sugges-
tive conceptions in default of any dem
onstration of their reality.
The fluid of magnetism termed by
Reichembach the odd and the neuric
force of Barely will now receive the
certificate of scientific reality.
1t is proved that there is given off
normally from the human body in a
continuous manner a special fluid
which seems to be an essential mani
festation of life, and which exteriorizes
itself, as lately Col. de Rochas has tried
to prove with so much zeal. He terms

COMFORT AND SPEED
On German Railways Sacrificed for
Magnificent Terminal Stations

The railway Management of the gov
ernment in Germany is very econom-
1cal in some respects and very eXtrav-
agant in others, particularly in the
way of construction, says the Berlin
correspondent Of the Chicago Record.
The stations are magnificent struc-
lures all through the empire That at
Frankfort cost 35,O0O,00O marks, and is
the finest in the world. In Dresden
is another almost as good, and wher-
ever you go you will find the railway
depots, like all other public buildings.
ornaments to the towns. Their designs
are in the highest order of architec-
ture; their facades are embellshed
with statues of an appropriate char
acter, carved in granite or marble or
cast in bronze. Mr.. Chauncey M. De-
pew was contemplating the grandeur
of the Frankfort station one day, when
some one asked him why the railroad
companies of America do not erect
such depots.
Because the travelling public would
prefer to have the money spent in the
comfortable trains and in speed" he
replied "a traveller remains in a rail-
way station but a few minutes. He
buys his ticket. checks his baggage
and passes through the gate. He is
often in a railway train all day and
all night and sometimes several days
and nights in succession, and then he
appreciates the luXuries afforded BY
the American railways. He would
rather have comfortable sleeping
car or parlor car and ride fifty miles
an hour into a dilapidated old wooden
depot than ride fifteen miles an hour in
an uncomfortable car and have hand
some bronze and marble statues to
look at on top of the railway station
when he arrives at his destination"
Mr.. Depew describes the situation in
Germany exactly. The railways have
splendid roadbeds; their bridges never
collapse and never burn. They are
built to last for centuries, and the
tracks are often lined with trees; but
the day cars are always uncomforta-
BILE, the sleeping cars are almost in
toIerable, and the rate of travel is so
slow as to be far from satisfactory
to one who is accustomed to travel in
the United States. Some time ago the
German government sent commission
ers to the United States to investigate
the railways. They have made an
elaborate report, recommending many
changes of Importance in management
and equipment, but none of their suS-
gestions have thus far been adopted,
and it is not probably that they will

1t was because he knew that he would be
treated as mere mission priest that Prince
Max, or rather Father Max, as he prefers
to be- called. chose London a. field for his
work. In Germany the authorities as well
as the poor would never succeed in binding
themselves to the fact that he was really a
royal prince.
The last member of a reigning house be-
fore Prince Max to become priest was Arch
duke Leopold of Austria, the patron OF Bee
thoven, who became cardinal very soon
after his ordination. King Charles Albert Of
SARDINIA, the father of Victor Emmanuel of
Italy, although he became a monk and died
such in Portugal after his abdicaton. new
er actually took orders as a priest.
All manner Of possibilities are taken into
consideration in royal families, and Prince
Max is in the line of succession. His father
is Prince George of Saxony. one of the heroes
of the war of 1870, and the only brother of
the childless King Albert of Saxony. conse-
quently the next heir to the throne.
Prince Max has two brothers older than
himself. If they should die before Prince
George ascends the throne. then Prince Max
would be the heir apparent, and should he
become king all manner of complications
may arise, as neither the constitution of the
German empire yet of Saxony contem-
plated the possibility of a prince in holy or
ders becoming a king.
On the other hand, Prince Max, the poor
mission priest, may become a still greater
ruler. He may become pope. prince of the
house of Saxony as pontif is by no means
so improbable as it seems at first thought.
The reigning families of Saxany and Italy
are closely related that few objections
would be raised by the quirinal to the cleo
tion of Prince Max as pope His selection
would, on similar grounds be indorsed by
Austria, Germany, Bavaria, Spain, Portugal
and Belgium, while England would scarcely
object to pope who received his ecclesiastical
education on British soil. And France would
offer no obstacle to a prince of a family
which owes its title of king to the first Ma
poleon.
The German church in London to which
Prince Max is attached bears the name of
st. Bonaparte. 1t stands in the Commercial
road and is nearly 100 years old Attached
to it is a young mems club, a convent and
an important German hospital. This prince
of the blood and late officer in a crack cav
airy regiment performs his duties and is
treated as are the other lowly mission work.

STAGE TRAGEDIES.
Actual Stabbing of a Juliet by a
Jealous Romeo.

One of the dramatic little stories of E.
Frankfort Moore. the London novelist, turns
on the actual stabbing of Juliet by a jeal-
Gus Romeo during a performance in a Ger
man court theater. Such tragic incidents
have not infrequently occurred in the annals
of opera and play house. In our own city's
chief lyric theater, says Harper's Weekly,
last season we had what seemed the lively
comedy of an actor something leading UP to
his sudden death; when the unfortunate
Castlemary, as Sir Tristan Mickleford. was
pursued by the crowd of Richmond Fair folk

well-attested suicides that have been con-
summated by luckless actors or singers under

FRUIT TREMENS IN ALASKA.
A Dogs Hide Filled With Gold Dus,

The Seattle Times prints this inter
eSting letter from a Klondiker:
Dear Friend: You can surprise the
dear people of Casper by telling them
that 1 am worth $4,000, and that next
summer [ will start back to buy the
town. Some people will want to kiss
me when l get back who wanted 10
kick me when I left. 1t is bad trip
up here, but it is worth making it
money is what a man wants. 1t is
the only place 1 ever saw where there
is so much money that people don't
seem to care for it.
I'VE sit around and talk about good
things to eat. That is what every
body is thinking about. If a man gets
to talking about fruit he is put out
of the camp. We can't stand it to
hear it talked of. I have dreamed OF
seeing peaches as big as a car wheel,
and they say when a man gets the
tremens up here he always sees fruit
or fancieS that he is pulling radiShes
or shelling peas This is hard cOun-
try to a man. It will make a young
man old in two years.
You have heard of the golden calf.
Well I have something that beats that;
1 have a golden dog. A dog of mine
died and I have used his hide as a
sack for my dust. I have him as fun
of gold as he was of meat. 1 some
times lay my head on his body and
dream of what 1 will do with my
dough when I get back to the States.
My partner has ten sirup cans filed

too. but it don't kill many, after all.
If man could have what he wanted
to eat up here it would not be so bad.
You can dress warm and fight the
cold, but it is hard to be hungry every
day and get nothing but the things
you detest. My paper has run out, and
there is no more in camp"

Dancing in the Dew at 5 O'clock in
the Morning.

A very novel fashion has been start
ed by the ingenious ladies of Partisan
society. 1t is to give little informal
social entertainments very early in the
morning, says the New York Journal.
The guests are supposed to keep the
engagement, not by the old and
familiar process of staying up all night,
but by rising early.
Fashionable society has just made
the discovery that there is charm in
early rising of which it had always
been deplorably ignorant.
The following invitation explains the
nature of the new fashion:
