The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1898-02-21

LONDON, Feb. 20-It is asserted on good
authority that the Royal Niger Company
has been instructed after trying all peace
able means, to compel the retirement of the
French from British territory by force.
The sultanate of Sokoto is u feudatory Of
the company, and was recently placed UNI
der British protection. The situation is re-
garded as extremely grave. Great B-itain's
forces in the protector;lte district number
between 5000 and 6000 men under British
officers in Lagos and the Gold Coast him
terland and at the three separate points Of
British and French territorial disputes
Boria, Wac and Argungu.
The Daily Mail says it has received con-
hrmatiOn of the news from Sokoto.
The Times, commenting editorially on the
news, says it cannot credit the report and
reproved the levity of the French press re-
garding grave situation. The presence
Of a French force at Argungu, the Times
declares, would be so fragrant a breach Of
any possible construction of the Say-Barua
agreement of 1890 (Anglo- French treaty at
Busah) that nothing but its immediate
withdrawal could avert the most deplorable
consequences"
Other papers publish similar articles. urg-
ing Lord Salisbury to intimate plainly that
Great Britains limit of ''squeezeabiHty'
has been reached. The Morning Post says:
IF France is really making deliberate
plans to annex British territory by military
occupation this can only imply that she de-
sire9 war with England. In that case, her
wish will doubtless be gratifed."

HYPNoTISM AS A MORAL CURE.
Unique Plan of NeurOlOEists to REM
edy Troubles i'm Home for Girls.

DENVER. Feb 20.--A solution of the DIFF
fculties at the Industrial Home for Girls is
In sight. That is, there is plan to that end
under discussion among number OF the
physicians of the city. 1t is proposed to
hypnotic the girls. and while in that state
suggestions will be made which may in
fluence them toward better lives. Some of
the leading neurologists of the city have
used the power very extensively in their
practice. 1.-The girls can be handled very
successfully by the power OF suggestion"
said one of the doctors. THE fact is, they
have been wrought up to such hysterical
state that they are especially good subjects
for hypnotic suggestion. The influence of
hysterical women who tried to rule them.
but had not sufficient strength of will to
handle themselves. first set the girls loose.
1T is a peculiar fact that when several
persons become Historically inclined they go

A Washington Orderly Book.

The original orderly book OF General
George Washington kept at Valley Forge
from May IS to June Ii, ITS, is preserved in
the Boston Athenaeum. It has occurred to
Lamson, Wolff & Co., of Boston that a
wider public than that which has access to
the library might be interested in the rec
ord, and they have therefore published it
IN a neat little volume in white and gray.
The War Department at Washington has
several of Washington's orderly books, but
none covering this period. The orders are
for the most part in the writing of Major
Samuel Shaw. who seems to have been as

by court martial for "being so far ELEVATED
with Liquor when on parade for, Exercis-
ing on the 18th inst. as rendered him in
capable in doing his Duty with precision"

eral are entered, and, being personal and
direct expressions, have an interest far be-
yond their actual Importance.
