CYNICAL Hands

There is marked difference between
the Spanish and the American hand.
In the latter the third finger, which Is
called the finger Of brilliancy, is square
tipped. This gives practical turn to
the intellectual development. The sec.
ond finger In this hand is spatulate
tipped and well formed, showing a
wholesome disposition that Is free from
morbid theories and that Is impulsiye
enough to save from overcaution. The
first finger Is pointed, giving religious
sentiment and ideality in art and senti.
ment. The first finger Is rather long,
which shows a desire to lead. The
fourth finger Is rather long and conical
shaped, showing versatility and love Of
advancement. The thumb IS large and
Independent looking, showing great en-
ergy. The principal lines of this hand.
the lines of life, fate, head and heart,
are all strong and well developed. 1t
is hand that is invincible; 1t follows
no one type, but draws strength from
various sources, and therefore posse sses
versatility. The Spanish hand belongs
entirely to the pointed finger type Of
the dreamer and idealist, rather than
one who can calculate and execute.
There could never be a chance for the
owner Of such hands to win from the
many-ideaed, versatile American.

BELIEVER IN HENRY GEORGE

Wealth for Jingle Tax Views.

Bolton Hall. son Of the late Rev. DE-.

with a small allowance. The d!scr!m-
!nation Is due 10 the fac, that The
young man IS one OF the most enthusi-
astlc believers In the theories OF Henry
George and has arrayed himself with
labor unions against capitalists. The
young man seems 20 be satisfied with
his lot and Will make no fight against
the provisions Of the will.
Bolton Hall is 43 years old and was
born In ireland. He Is man OF fine
education and has Law office in New
York City. While at college be became
deeply Interested IN the works OF Oar
win and Huxley. After leaving school
he went 70 work for an importing firm.
eventually becoming a partner. While
In this firm he saw the Iced OF associa-
ton and tried cooperation for the ben
eft Of the employees as. we'll as the firm
Itself. The plan was TO distribute 10
per cent. Of the profits. dividing the
amount pro rata among the clerks and
all others working on salary. They
liked It and the system seemed 10 give
great satisfaction. But it soon proved
impractical. The employees were will
ing 10 work for corresponding reduc-
ton so as 70 increase plotts. while the
firm received 10 added benefit from the
plan. Then cooperation was aban-
doned.
Young Hall then turned his attention
TO law, graduating from Columbia Col
lege in 1857. He has since practic.d
his profession. He became Interested
In the writings Of Bel.amy and Henry
George, their views being along the
same line as those held by himself. He
soon was an apostle Of the s.ngle-tax
doctrine OF the latter and went into the
movement heart and soul. In II he saw
the remedy for bad government and all

die. the most terrible torture of the
many which they inflicted upon him.
The spiked saddle, it would seem. is one
of the most devilish contrivances ever
devised by man. The terrible torture
which II caused IS best told in Mr.. Lam
doris own words.
ut was" he said. "in reality the
wooden frame of very high-backed
saddle. from the back of which some
five or six sharp iron spikes stuck out
horizontally. AS I sat on this instru-
ment of torture the spikes caught me in
the small of the back. My guard hav-
ing been augmented by twenty or thirty
mounted men, with muskets and
swords. we set off at q furious pace.
The horseman riding in front of me led
my pony by means Of a cord, as my
hands were manacled behind my back.
and thus we travelled across country for
miles. In order to accelerate our speed
a horseman rode by my side, flashing
my pony TO make 1t go its hardest.
Meanwhile the horseman who held the
cord did his utmost to pull me out Of the
saddle, no doubt in the hope Of seeing
me trampled to death by the cohort be-
hind me. AS leaned my body forward
so as to maintain my seat. and with my
arms pulled violently backward by the
rope. the flesh was rubbed off my hands
and knuckles by the chain Of the hand
cuffs. In places the bone was exposed.
and every tug brought me into forcible
contact with the spikes and inflicted
deeper wounds. The cord. though
strong. eventually and unexpectedly
gave way. The soldier who was pulling
at the other end was endorsed. and I
was myself all but thrown by the unex.
pected Jerk.
