John Mccullough was present at the ex-
periments. DR.. Simon had two subjects
"a man and woman-with him. They
were of the variety known as "horses."
They fell into trance the moment DR..
Simon looked at them, and the difficulty
was, not to keep them asleep, but TO
keep them awake after the doctor was
through with them. A committee or
nine doctors and lawyer. headed by
DR.. James r. Cooke of Boston, had
charge of the experiment. They voted
DR.. Simon a successful hypnotist, and
charity is out the $1,000.
DR.. Cooke undertook to put Albert
Book, a lawyer, who doesn't believe In
hypnotism, into trance, but failed.
Then another doctor put blonde wo-
man, who was described as an army
officers wife, a little bit under the in
fiuence, but she developed trick OF
doing things which the hypnotist de-
clared she was unable to do. and was
excused. A gray-haired lady was get

the ports of Cnossus. The distance be-
tween Crossus and Gambia is under an
hours walking, and in antiquity the
two places were connected by walls,
which recalled those between Piraeus
and Athens. In the time of Venetian
sovereignty Gambia enjoyed great pros
perity. Today it's aspect is essentially
Turkish on account of its houses, its
mosques, its minarets and its bazars, in
which are exposed all the products Of the
east. 1t is surrounded by Fashioned
wall, almost triangular in shape. Within
there is another wall separating the old
town from the new, the latter being
nearer the river. The Notifications date
from the Venetians, but war and earth
quakes have left little or nothing Of the
city's ancient splendor. Tournefort has
called 1t only the carcass of city. Its
chief monuments are the remains OF the
Church of St. Francis and the old Latin
cathedral to st. Titus. It's population is
between $1,000 and $4,000, mostly Mus
sulmans. The port is protected by two
moles, but the sand has been allowed to
silt up so much that only very small
vessels can enter. It's chief trade is with
Trieste, which takes from 1t raisfns and
oil in return for soap. Canea comes next
to Gambia, with population of 11,0oO,
equally divided between Christians and
Mohammedans Canea is the ancient
Cydonia. The modern town dates from
152. and Is the principal port OF the
island, the commercial capital, and the
residence of the foreign consuls. Not
far from Canea is the admirable anchor
age of Suda bay. Retimo. the third town,
is fifty-five miles southwest of Gambia.
It's population is not above 5000"

Coal Analvzed bv Roentpen Ravs

In a recent technical paper read before
the Northwestern Electrical association
at Milwaukee 1t was suggested that quite
successful rough analysis of Goals
could be accomplished by means of the
microscope. The density Of the shadow
of coal sample viewed thruogh a fiuor-
oscope is dependent upon the percentage
of ash. and by matching the shadSw OF
the sample under investigation with that
of sample of coal of similar size ana
thickness, and with a known percentage
of ash. speedy and probably quite ac-
curate results may be obtained.
To those unfamiliar with the chemistry
of steel this proposition may seem vision
ary, but to the steel metallurgist 1t Will
appear merely as an extension OF meth
DDS long employed by him.
In the Siemens-Martin steel process,
and In others where the proper quantity
of carbon in the steel is furnished by the
addition to a bath of practically decar-
buretted iron Of suitable quantities OF
high carbon metal, quick methods OF
analysis are imperative. BY the ordi-
nary gravimetric methods OF carbon de-
termination reliable results cannot ~
obtained in less than a day. To be OF sef.
vice to the steel manufacturer, results
must be obtained in few minutes, so
as to enable him to correct the propor-
tions while the batch is still in process Of
manufacture. To do this the color test
was invented. and is largely used In the
steel industry. This test was arranged az
follows: Samples of steel whose carbon
had been very carefully determined by
gravimetric methods were dissolved in
given quantities of acid and the result
ing colors corresponding to steels, vary
ing progressively by slight increments OF
carbon, were thus prepared and pre-
served as standards.
To test the state of carburation of the
batch under manipulation. the same
quantity as was used in the standard
steels is dissolved in the same quantity
of acid and comparison made. BY
means of this color test the amount OF
carbon could be accurately determined
considerably within 1-10 of / per cent.
The utility of the Roentgen ray in the
determination of ash in coal, where an
accuracy within per cent would an
swer almost all practical purposes,
would seem assured.
In the analysis of coal by this method
II Is probable that only Goals having ap-
proximately the same specific gravities
could be properly compared, SO that sew
eral sets of standards would have to be
prepared. The error in comparing Goals
of widely varing densities would thus
be corrected.-Electricity

SANTA ANA

SANTA ANA, March 22.-(Regular
Sorrespondence.) The case of Green vs.
Green occupied the superior court today
Mrs. Green sues for divorce from Prof"
Green, Major McKelvey appeared for
complainant and Mr.. Anderson for the
defendant. Mrs. Green and Ruby Fitch,
who Is the alleged victim of Green's lust,
were the witnesses for complainant. The
causes alleged for divorce are the adul-
ferrous acts of Green and cruel treatment
inflicted by him on complainant. These
charges were fully sustained by the tes-
timony of the two witnesses, each as
serting that Green did commit the adul-
terry charged and that his cruelty went
to the extreme Of telling Mrs. Green to
the floor with his fist. and also whipping
the witness Ruby Fitch. The testimony
of Ruby was clear and explicit.
Mrs. Green Is of fragile frame which
gives color to her statement that she was
deferred by Green's threats from divulg
ing his criminal conduct at an earlier
day. The case will not be concluded be-
fore tomorrow at noon.

An inquest was held yesterday by

The cause of death, it was ascertained.

Afternoon Session

When the council convened at 2:15
o'clock the scene was in striking contrast
with the opening in the morning. The
lobby was crowded and the gallery was
well filled. In the center of the chamber
in front of the members desks was a
plain deal table on which was a pine box
bearing the words, Thomas Price,

led from the ceiling, where connection
had been made with the gas pipe sup

GRIFFITH STREET OPENING
AS soon as the council was called to
order Councilman Toll stated that there
was number of protestants present in
the matter of the opening of Griffith
street, and asked that it be taken up t
once. This was done, and one of the
protestants stated that they were op-
posed to the improvement at this time
on account of the hard times. One of the
petitioners argued in favor of the i'm
provement, saying that it was a public
necessity and that in case the protest.
ants could not pay for the same they
would be assisted.
Several Withdrawals from the protests
were announced. after which, on mo-
tion of Councilman Toll, action was de-
ferred for one week, the city engineer

present status Of the frontage for or
against the proposition.
