HIN1oo PSYCHOLOGY.
Ezpounnded by vIrohand R. Gandh Of
Bombay


Virchand. h. Gandm of Bombay gave
4 the. second lecture of his course, in Sails
bury Hall, Saturday evening, and chose
for his theme Concentration and medi-
tation."
He said in part: Concentration and
meditation are acts of which every hui
man being is capable, but their value
is measured entirely by the character OF
the objects upon which they are eXer-
cised. Concentration may be defined as
the focusing OF the mental energies, as
the steady activity of the mind. Medi-
tation consists in holding tine mind to
consideration of defined object after
the preliminary process of concentra-
tion has been completed. All other states
of mind whose features are unsteadi-
ness and whose results cannot be sum
married, are injurious
Most public speakers fail to recognize
the fact that every audience is made
ND of people in widely different stages
of mental development, and that an
abstract term has various meanings to
them. To acquire the power of concen-
tration one must have some mental
capital, which may be divided into four
parts. The first is right knowledge of
the object, which is the subject of
an object of which one has no sensate
1 knowledge. The second Is belief in the
soundness of that knowledge belief
which is not simply understanding of the
Z words of a dogma, but acceptance of
all it's principles. Life, in accordance
with this belief, is the third, for action
Is thought soHditied. and sincerity is an
essential to effective thought. The
fourth is consciousness of ones mastery
ma s1o Nf 1,o1 hid
or of vice is incapable of concentration
Even so innocent habit as smoking or
drinking tea, may render attempts at
concentration futile
There are certain accepted external
helps to concentration. First, we must
select the proper place for it. The Hin
doc believes that every mental act has
an influence on external objects, and
that IN turn these objects are capable of
q reflex influence on the mind.
The time selected for concentration is
also important. The Hindoo believes
that the early morning is the best time
when there is quiet and the mind is
fresh AT any rate it should not be at
tempted Immediately after eating or
when the mind is exhausted. The third
important condition is health. The
blood must be warm and the breathing
regular If the heart acts spasmodical-
", the brain will not be able to act
steadily and calmly. After the lecture
questions were asked which called forth
some spirited and powerful replies from
the lecturer. Mr.. Gandhi thought that
the ideas of God as infinite and as a
personally were contradictory, but said
that God, regarded as a principle, was
q legitimate subject for meditation. One
sage present skirmished with him a lit
tie about the first cause and God as a
person, and finally propounded the time
honored question as to which came
first, the egg or the hen That floored
obliged to confess that to that question
Indian philosophy contained no answer.

MANY SUSPECTS.
People Who Resemble erookfieId Muir
derer Held in Several Places.

State Detective Murray received word
Saturday forenoon that the police of
Hartford were holding a man who an
swered the description of Paul Miller, and
wished him to send some one to identiz
fly the man. Frank McKenna of Spen-
Ger, who knows Miller, was sent to
Hartford but up to a late hour Satur-
day night Mr.. Murray had heard moth
ing from him.
Friday night, a young fellow named
Mills, who lives near North pond re-
ported to Inspectors O'Day and Stone
that he had been approached by a man
who rescmbled the description of Miller
and who asked him for work cutting ice.
Mills told him that there was no ice
cutting going on at that time but that
he had a farm in Sterling, and that If he
would come around the next day at
o'clock, he would see what he could do
in the way of work. The inspectors
were on hand promptly at the appoint
ed time, but the man failed to put in an
appearance.
Another suspect is reported from En-
field Mass, and this clue will be in
vestigated.
Saturday Deputy Sheriff Tarbell inter-
viewed several persons who were fami-
liar with Miller's appearance with a
view 10 ODIdlulIlS Il llUIS Illnult ueS-
cription of the latter, which may aid
very materially in his identification.
Mr.. Murray is convinced that the man
held at Freeville n. Y, is not Miller.
After receiving the despatch from
Constable A. E. Sovocell, Mr.. Murray i'm
mediately telephoned to Freeville and
found out that the constable had not
seen the man in question. The suspect
was in jail about 10 miles from Free
Vile. Saturday Mr. Murray received a
despatch from the constable saying that
the man was 10 pounds lighter than the
murderer and had no scars on his head.
Although there was scar on his right
hand, but considerably higher than the
description states. The man will be held
| 20 days for vagrancy, during which full
particulars will be sent to the Massachu-
setts police.
Another suspect has been located at
| Clinton N. Y, about Il miles from
Rochester. He was seen by a con.
stable walking on the tracks of the
New York Central Railroad, and his
description tailed so closely with thai
of Miller, even to the rolling gait, that
| the constable made an attempt to place
the man under arrest. The suspect
made off down the tracks, but was fl.
nally captured and left in the hands OF
couple of citizens, while the constable
sought the nearest telegraph office ano
notified the police at Rochester.
During the officers absence the man
| broke away from the citizens who were
! holding him and escaped to the woods

GRAFTON.

NO GLOVE FACTORY FOR GRAF
TON AT PRESENT.
At the meeting of the Board of Trade
in the parlors of Hotel Kirby, at which
IA citizens were present, Friday even
ing, the conclusion was reached that
Grafton business men cannot at the
present time see their way clear to fit
up a shop in the shape Mr.. Neahr de-
sires, and also furnish him with $500
cash when he opens business here. The
cash and fitting up the shop would
amount to about S1100. Mr.. Neahr
stated before the close of the meeting
that he would come here any time be-
fore next fall, if the citizens of Grafton
would meet his figures. Mr.. Neahr left
Saturday morning for Gloversville,
where he will open his factory for the
winter run Monday morning.

a NEW TRADING COUPON.
Worcester Men Organize a Scheme that
is Said to Be Within the Law.


A number of local business men have
s organized the Merchants and Traders
i Cooperative Association ami will begin
business the first of next month
The association is modelled after the
3 Traders Supply Company, in that cou-
pons will be given with every purchase
the customer makes. The method by
which this is done, however, is strictly
within the limits of the law, according
to the counsel to which the association
has submitted its plan of operations.
The coupons which dealers will give
their customers, instead of being ex-
changed for articles of merchandise,
will have a definite cash value, which
can be used as cash in the purchase of
goods from any of the merchants be-
longing to the association. 1t is by Civ
ing each and every coupon cash value
that the new association comes fully
within the law
According to the new plan, each mer-
chant will give the customer one re-
bate coupon for every 10 cents worth
of merchandise purchased. For example:
The customer buys one dollars worth
OF goods and receives 10 rebate cou-
pons. When purchases to the amount
Of $40 have been made at the various
stores belonging to the association; the
customer will have 200 rebate coupons.
These coupons presented at the store
Of any merchant on the list, are good
for 80 cents in the purchase of mer-
chandise or the payment of a bill to
any of the merchants or dealers who
are members Of the association. This
gives the customer a net discount of
IL per cent on all of his cash pur-
chases.
The association has assurances from
many of the leading firms of the city
that they would like to so into the
scheme, and it is believed that it will
be success 1t is not the intention of
the association to contfne itself to Wor-
cester, but branches will be established
IN other cities. The officers of the as
sociation will be announced in a few
days.

Bush, clerk of the hotel Dorrance, Prov
idence, R. I. He says: ''For several
years have been almost a constant suf-
ferer from diarrhoea, the frequent at
tacks completely prostrating me and
rendering me unfit for my duty at this
hotel. About two years ago a travelling
salesman kindly gave me a small bottle
of Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and
Diarhoea Remedy. Much to my sur
prise and delight it's effects were imme-
diate. Whenever 1 felt symptoms of the
disease 1 would fortify myself against
the attack with few doses of this val
ueabla remedy. The result has been
very satisfactory and almost complete
relief from the affliction." For sale by

POINTS OF SUPERIORITY
The Vive Has all The Advantages of Ev-
cry Other Camera and in Many
Ways superior to Any.

No other camera so simple and sure,
or so quickly operated.
No other camera Of the price takes
such large pictures, or carries so many
exposures at one loading as the $5 90
Vive.
No other camera will allow of either
using or not using holders at the will of
the operator.
No other SO inexpeneivelY or readily
enables one to use either glass plates
or cut films, and in such numbers.
No other will hold glass plates and
cut films so that both can DC used at the
came time.
No other camera includes, free, full
complement of universal metal combi-
nation holders.
No other camera has such simple,
light and universal holders, or those
which also hold any size of glass
plates or cut films under the full size ad-
vertised for the respective sizes and
~styles of Vive cameras.
No other camera Is so small and COM
pact for the size of pictures taken.
NO Juliet IL easy W AuO
operate.
The magazine of tho Vive camera
holds so many S. R. V. backed glass
pilates or cut tilms that daylight leading
is unnecessary quickly enabling the
operator to carry in the camera and
make from one to over one hundred ex-
posures at one loading.
Avoid buying a camera where the re-
quired additional glaes plate holders
alone, almost double the advertised
price, and then not be able to carry them
in the camera.
We guarantee eYerv Vive camera to
do and be all that we claim in our cata-
aogue, and to take pictures fully equal
to illustrations shown therein. We also
.emphatically guarantee every sample
picture we advertise, to be taken with
