that gentleman to move to different

part Of tile house.. Ehis he did at a
time when there was so much noise in
the room that it was impossible for Nc
Even to know the direction that anyone
individual had taken. When all was
ready, the bandage was removed and the
mind reader went into the big audience
and selected his man without the slight
est trouble. Various such tests were
given and no one could dispute their
fairness. McEwen, however, did not
claim that he had the power to read an
others mind. Not at all. He simply
said the committeeman had in each in
stance guided him by impressions made
upon him through their unconscious &C.
tions: In other words, it was muscle
reading. When that portion of his en-
terlainment came which dealt with mes
merism and hypnotism, he had some
trouble in securing subjects, but finally
nine young men, all over sixteen years
Of age, ventured onto the platform. Then
he said it was necessary for them to obey
implicitly all instruction. If they were
not willing to do this the man did not
live who could hypnotic them. At the
very outset he discovered four who
would not obey and politely dismissed
khov ~ no n, e.
" good mesmeric subjects. At single
glance from the hypnotist, a single
stroke of the hand or even a word, they
, , would pass from the normal into the
mesmeric state and respond to the slight
est suggestion. For instance he would
tell them they were about to fall to-
wards him, and sure enough they would
fall. He would tell them they could
not pronounce their own name, and,
we'll, they simply couldn't. He would
tell them that they we're suffering from
the toothache, or stomach-ache and sure
enough the symptoms were apparently
all there. At a word again they would
once more be in the normal state. TO
two of the boys he gave to understand
that he would stick pin through their
flesh and they would experience no pain.
He aid just what he said. When in their
| normal state minute later they could
not even stand to have the skin pricked
with the point of the needle. All this
while the subjects were conscious of their
surroundings and of what was being
| said to them, but whenever a suggestion
was conveyed to them by the hypnotist
they we're at once AND completely under
its control. Another interesting feat
was, that Of putting a man into the cata-
leptic state by mere suggestion, thereby
making his body and muscles, except a,
the neck, as ri gid as iron. In this state
he was supported on the backs of two
chairs placed about four feet apart and
five heavy boys straddled his body with
all their weight, and yet it retained its
| rigid postures, as If it had been lar of
steel. When brought to the normal
state by counting to three, the subject
claimed to feel excellent and as bright as
ever. Many more things were done on
Monday night and many more will be
done during the week to interest the
thinker and student. They seem strange
and almost Incredible, but yet they
are all done agreeable to natural laws.
There is no magic or deception about it
whatever. u

Collision on the Rail at Ketne.

The night express on the Fitchburg rail-
road, due at Keene at 1923 \. NJ, struck
wild locomotive near the Eastern avenue
crossing about $40 Tuesday morning.
Both locomotives were thrown from the
rails and demolished. Conductor George
Boutele was passing between cars and
was thrown violently to the ground, severe
ly injuring one leg. The half dozen pas
sengers in the sleeper were shaken up and
one sustained cash on the forehead.
George jenkins, the engineer of the wild
locomotive, had been sent from Bellows
Falls to Winchendon early in the night to
push heavy freight, He was ordered to
return with his locomotive, passing the

rounding the curve where the accident oc-
cured. The track was cleared Of wreckage

LIVE STOCK MARKET.

The beef market has continued very
firm, indeed, with higher prices than
week ago. Dealers have been obliged
10 go around among the trade and buy
beef, in order to take care of their own
customers. 1t is understood that the
supply is very light. Quotations are
firm with some sellers asking sc for
choice cattle
For the week the arrivals of beef have
been remarkably small, the total haV-
ing been but 121 cars for Boston, and 1S5
cars for export, a total of 256 cars; pre-
ceding, 1872 cars for Boston and 55 cars
for export, a total of 1877 cars; same week
a year ago, 129 cars for Boston and lis
for export, a total of 247 cars. 1t should
be noted that several cars marked beef
for the week really were largely muttons
and lambs.
The mutton market has been firmer of
late, with rather better demand. Quo
tations are more steady 1t is men
toned that it is extremely hard to get
calves to market for a week or two past,
by reason of the deep and melting SHOWS
in northern and eastern New England.
NealS are firm.

THE w. c It. U.
Features Of the "MOthers' Meeting
Held Wednesday Afternoon.

helu
The "Mothers' meeting" of last We'd
nesday afternoon began with prayer, read
ing of the Scripture lesson and singing.
Mrs. S. j. Whitman was introduced and
her subject announced, 1.-THE Mother and
Child" She referred to the mother who
should be model for the child, as it
was natural for a child to refer to mother
as all right, etc.
She referred to the helps which the
mothers Of today can avail themselves Of,
which our mothers could not obtain as
guides in their home duties. She EN-
phaszed the Importance OF good associates
for the child. The mother should look af-
ter this particularly. Procure good edu-
cational advantages, good books to read;
know what your child reads And still
with all the care and caution, and with
all the helps the mother can command, she
does not feel satisfied with what she may
have attempted TO mark out in the child
but must leave il in the hands of the
Master after she has done what she can.
These are only a very few points touched
by Mrs. Whitman. Questions followed,
which were responded TO by Mrs. Whit
man, much to the qualification of the
ladies. An unexpected feature of the pro-
gram came in as Mrs. Mixer was announced
10 recite a poem, "Only Picture rep
resenting as a shepherd and lamb 1t was
very fine.
Mrs. Davidson of Newfane opened her
subject as announced, "Some of the Per
plexities of the Mother" A very few
points can be glanced at, viz, their exam
| pie should always be for good, for the
parents should be on the side of right to
encourage the child. The parents should
insist upon implicit obedience, truthful
ness, too. Don't tell your child lie il
you expect your child to be truthful to
! you Secure your child's confidence; look
after their choice of associates; their lit
erature, too, should be of the right tone
select your child's books to read; induce
them to play good plays, not of the yellow
covered literature kind of highwaymen Sc
common among US. Places of amusement
should be selected with care. Mrs. Da-
vds spoke of dancing parties and spoke
of words from a dancing teacher who dis
approved of this amusement, from ever
I his standpoint, as he had seen some of tn,
sad results from dancing parties. Mrs
Davidson answered a number Of questions
much to the pleasure of the ladies' Tht
next mothers meeting will be announced
later.
