Dr. Liebeault, whose portrait is given
herewith, is, is stated, the leader of the
scientists who have made hypnotism
the study Of their lives. Whatever he
says upon the subject may be accepted
as the latest and most fortified opinion
OF those whose views regarding hypno-
tlSm are worthy of cOnSiderat ton. 1t is,
therefore, no ordinary statement which
follows, just as it came from the lips
Of the distinguished savant and made
as the result of a request to enlighten
the American people regarding the
latest and most convincing facts re-
garding hypnOtiSm, the majority Of
which Will be found entirely new to
the non-Scientific reader:
1T may surprise you to know" said
Dr. Liebeault, that it is possible to
hypnotic 50 per cent of mankind The
remaining per cent are impervious to
the direction Of the hypnotist, let him
be of as strong mind as he may. All
these persons who are susceptible to the
influence Of hypnOtism are not affected
! to the same degree, by any means. The
Influence of the hypnotist on woman is
very different to that upon the sterner
sex. 1t is more difficult for a woman
to fix her attention upon a given OBJ
Ject than for a man to do so. Just
why this is [ cannot tell. OF course we
all have our theories. This much we
| know. that a woman does not possess
the power of concentration given to
man. That is my explanation.
You see this is. the case. Persons
who are easily distracted, who, from
nature or training, have not the power
Of fixing the attention or concentrating
thought, and persons in agitation, those
who are heavy and dull, idiots whose
brains lack the power of understanding
what is required Of them, these are the
least capable Of hypnosis"
The central idea of hypnCtism Is
simple enough. 1t is merely making a
suggestion to a certain person, instead
of that person making the suggestion
for himself. The hypnotist must be
able to impress that suggestion on the
mind of the subject so thoroughly that
the result will be the same as if it came
from the individual himself. To do this.
the subject must first be placed in the
hypnotic state. When in this state he
is practically asleep.
THE process Of placing a subject in
the so-called hypnotic state is simple,
despite the great efforts which have
been made TO cloak it, about with

Mr.. English Files Another Suit and
Dickson k& Talbot File Ansxyer

DICKSON ~ IaIbOtt File Answer.
Two documents were filed in the Super
ior Court yesterday in which the Iitiga-
tion between William E. English and the
theatrical firm of Dickson & Talbot was
prominently brought out. William E. Eng
lish brought another suit against the theat-
rical firm to recover the sum of 81 900 al
leged to be due the English estate on the
old contract between William H. English
and Dickson & Talbot. In setting out the
contract claimed to have been entered into
in August, 1893, it is averred by the plaintiff
that the lease was to begin June l. 1894
and end June l, 1897. The complaint then
sets out the terms of the contract as to
the rental and alleges that the defendants
have refused to pay the installment fall
ing due March l. 1897 The court is asked
to award the plaintiff judgment for $1,000
The defendants, Dickson & Talbot, then
at considerable length. They charge that
the plaintiff wrongfully elected them from
the premises and kept them out of posses
months, from June 13, 1896 until Sept. 10
of the same year. They say that on March
10, 1896, the plaintiff agreed to lease them
the house for term of three years the
rental to begin June l. 1897, and terminate
in May, 1906 The defendants claim they
We're TO pay the rental sum of $6,250 a
year, the contract providing that the lease
should be renewed and the stage recon-
structed, the plaintiff to pay for the ma
terial and the defendants to have the work
done. They aver they paid out $3.50 for this
work, which has not been repaid them
The plaintiffs declare they performed all
their contracts and stand ready to accept
a lease of the premises, but notwithstand-
ing this the plaintiff has repudiated his
contract with them by renting the house
to George FL. Ketcham. The plaintiffs fur
ther charge that they made contracts for
attractions for the theatrical season of
1897 which begins the 1st of September, but
have been compelled to rescind and cancel
many of their agreements. In this they say
$1,000. There is also claim that 81 900 was
spent in advertising and in booking these
attractions. The defendants demand dam
ages and judgment for costs in the case
