MIND PICTURES BY TELEPHONE.
The Mistake One Man Made as to Another's
Appearance and the Result.
New York Sim

did you ever notice that when an
idea becomes fixed in the mind, it is
very difficult to change it, especially in
the case of extremely sensitive and
highly nervous persons?" asked a
Brooklyn expert on nerves. Not long
ago l had a visit from a man who was
afraid he was losing his reason be-
cause of a very simple persistence of a
certain thought or idea which he could
not shake off. The history of the case
is enc often found in cases of hypochon-
driasis developed from using the tele-
phone.
MY patient. for about a years time
had occasion to telephone every day to
a trade customer in New York-Man-
haitian. if you like. The New Yorker
had peculiar high tenor squeak to his
voice, and somehow my friend got to
picturing him as a little chap with a
thin face. This habit grew day after
day until the customer took a real
shape and form in the mind of my pa
tient, all based. of course, upon his
voice AS he talked over the telephone
there always was mentally pictured
that little chap with the thin face and
squeaky voice.
We'll. one day, my patient called at
the office of his New York customer,
and as he walked into the place and
saw tall fat man Weighing nearly 200

SPANS PERIL.
Authorities Show Little Haste to Pre-
pare for the Coming Strife.

London, Dec. 3.--The Madrid CORE
spondent of the Standard forwarding
his dispatch from the frontier confirms
the report of Carlist arrests at Mora de
Rubielos and adds
The authorities, apparently with a
view of avoiding the provocation of
outbreaks. do not seem to display
much vigor or rapidity in the meas
ures necessary to check the proDa-
granda which the provincial papers in
many parts of Spain are daily de-
nouncing.
The war office, however, is active
in placing the army on a war footing.
Much suppressed activity reigns at the
war and home offices. Although no
Carlist bands have appeared, it is
strange to notice the widespread feel
ing of uneasiness prevailing all classes.
THE general impression is that Don
Carlos, if he follows the advice of his
oldest and most respectable partisans,
will not provoke a civil war unless he
can count upon serious support in the
army and in public opinion. of which
no symptoms are yet perceptible.'

mouth and talked, my patient says, the

In view of his size, about having pic

there was good laugh over the odd
difference of the reality.
But the next day when my friend used
the telephone and the Squeaky voice came
TO him, he had to struggle to get away
from from thinking of his fat patron as being
little and thin, He talked the matter
over with his wife and laughed about It,
put soon there came time when he for
got all about the actual existence of his
customer, and the little thin-faced chap
was again talking to him over the WIRE

L was i'll despair and my patient was
growing gray from worrying when I hit
upon the happy eXpedient of placing d

phone where the eye OF the patient could
rest upon 1t as he talked. The result was
the disappearance forever of the thin

THE SESSION AT PARIS.
But Little Progress The Commission Hears
Gen. Merritt's Testimony.

Paris, Dec. 2.-The joint session of the
peace commissions, today. lasted two
hours. No real progress was made. the
Spaniards are awaiting Instructions
SPANS proposition for commercial
privileges in the West Indies was not
settled and was scarcely considered, to-
day. The Americans have also asked for
instruction on certain matters.
The Caroline Islands question was not
considered. The joint commission ad-
journed until Saturday.
The United States peace commission
concluded it's consultation with Major
General Wesley Merritt at today's ses-
sion, after which it took up the question
of Spanish commercial rights in the West
Indies for a term of years and other sub
iects of negotiation to be considered later
at the joint session.
Spanish sympathizers having a quasi
connection with the Spanish commission
are making much over the reported atti-
tude of the Filipinos toward the United
States.
These sympathizers profess to have in
formation that Aguinaldo means to fight
and that he has now 60 900 soldiers.
Today's session was a repetition virtu-
ally of several earlier meetings. When
after two hours of discussion taking Il
wide range. the Spaniards We're pressed
for definite statements, they pleaded that
they had not received instructions from
Madrid. Thereupon the Americans de-
cared in diplomatic phraseology, that it
was useless to waste time in debate with
men who We're not empowered to make
bargains.
Although the adjournment was taken
until tomorrow, it is probable that there
will be further postponement to Mon
day.
The Spaniards' version of today's ses-
sion is that they asked to have the treaty
concluded first and then the minor mat
tiers discussed. According to reports from
American sources. the Spanish commits
sioners endeavored 10 draw out hints as
to how far the Americans We're willing
to compromise the demands under discus
sion, without disclosing what concessions
Spain was willing to make.
An American commissioner remarked,
this evening, to the correspondent of The
Associated Press: NV e realize that these
peoples are to become our subjects and
we desire to secure for them all their
rights and privileges. We keep in mind
the interests of Spanish citizens in the
territories changing hands as well as of
others"
Among the problems to which the COM
missioners are devoting much attention
is that of the courts. Both commissions
desire as far as possible to arrange that
contracts entered upon and lawsuits
brought under the Spanish regime, may
be transferred to the jurisdiction of the
American courts so that the litigants may
lose no right through the change of gov
eminent.
The question of continuing contracts for
public works now under way is also being
considered, and it is possible that the
treaty will guarantee the fufilment of
existing mail contracts.

NO HITCH OCCURRED.
Peace Negotiations Continued
Without a Break.

the Minor Details.
Fridays Session at Paris Makes But Little
Progress on Work.

Washington, Dec. at can be stat
ed positively that no hitch has &C.
CURED in the proceedings of the peace
commissioners at Paris. and an i'm
preston to the contrary in certain
quarters probably arose through
misunderstanding of the phase those
proceedings have reached.
with the acquiescence by the Span
ish commissioners in the American de-
mands set out in the original protocol
all danger of a failure to reach the
point OF signature of a peace treaty
disappeared and that such treaty
VIII be Forthcoming, covering at length
all OF the protocol points, is consider
ed assured.
what is now going on in Paris is a
negotiation respecting certain objects
which the United States government
seeks to accomplish in that manner
instead OF resorting to the more usual
put more tedious method OF CORE
spondence between the two govern
mentS.
These objects have been clearly
stated in general terms in The Asso-
ciated Press cable dispatches from
-
OF the Caroline islands as a cable sta
ton; of certain rights to land cables
on Spanish possessions at other points;
the proeurment of freedom or religious
worship in the Carolines and the re-
Vival of certain treaties of trade and
commerce, etc.
The statement that Spain has re-
fused to sell US Ceuta, opposite Glib
raltar, for coal and cable station, is
inaccurate.
The case is different respecting the
Carolines. The American naval ex-
perts have urged very strongly that
this group as Il whole be retained if
possible. and in addition that the Pc
lew group lying to the westward be
purchased.
They have pointed out that the
southernmost island of the Ladrone
group, Waloa, lies only 300 miles north
OF Ponape, in the Carolines and the
PeleW islands are only about 600 miles
distant from the Philippines With
these the United States would have a
complete chain of islands located at
convenient distances more than half
way across the Pacific.
The war department is fairly con-
fident of it's ability now to undertake
the full control of the Philippine IS
lands with the assistance of the naval
contingent under Dewey.

Refl- ctions Of a Bachelor.

No woman is ever merciful to her
own sex till she has found the other
sex merciful to her.
The average husbands life is one
long, unselfish struggle to make his
wife make him happy.
1t is no sign because a woman has
her husbands interests at heart that
she has her husband there, too.
The great benefactor of the future IS
not the man who will rid the world of
disease, but the one who will rid it of
moths.
The first thing wise man does after
he gets married is to practice till he
can look as if he has been doing wrong
when he hasn't.
Love is like a butterny-it was prob
ably lot more comfortable when it
was a worm.
The average woman doesn't want her
husband to be just; what she wants is
for him to love her.
If there are women who can make
fool of every man, there are other
women who can make a man of every
fool.
Before man falls in love he Won
ders hcw a woman would suit him for
a wife: after he falls in love he Won
ders how he would suit woman for a
husband.

A PERFECT UNDERSTANDING.
Sir Edward Grey Pleased With Rela-
tons Between United States and
England.

London. Dec. 2.--Sir Edward Grey,
Libei al. member of Parliament for
Berwick on-Tweed, who was under
secretary of state for foreign affairs in
Lord Roseberry's cabinet and who was
the spokesman of Lord Roseberry's
government in the memorable decla-
ration as to Great Britain's Egyptian
policy. made in the House of Commons
in 1895. spoke, tonight, on foreign aft
fairs at Blackburn. i'm Lancashire.
Referring to the magnificent effect
on the relations between the United
States and Great Britain accomplished
by the free press of a free people. on
each side of the Atlantic expressing
the generous impulses of each nation"
he said:
Il would rather have the free play of
this national sentiment, which is en-
richfng the public life of both coun-
tries, than written alliance. We
have finally come to realize a double
patriotism-the patriotism of country
and the patriotism of race. There is
comon bond between the two peoples.
and we should look in times of peace
to see the sentiment growing and in
times of disturbance to find i'm it some
thing upon Which We could lean for
mutual support"
Sir Edward Grey condemned the cat
tempts of some conservative speakers
to make party capital out of this I'M
derstanding' and expressed "a hope that
both Germany and the United States
may incline more and more to our
policy of open door, which will lead
to great improvement in trade

stone to Il higher organization to be

held that the state militia could be made
a valuable training school and give to the
national reserve men of experience.
Lieut.. Switzerland, present commander
of the auxiliary navy. gave his views as
outlined in his recent report and held that
the men composing the national reserve
should be trained from the start in that
body exactly as is done in the regular
navy.
New York and Maryland leaned strong
ly toward the combination of a state and
national reserve. Pennsylvania took the
position that the national government
should alone stand sponsor for the body
and have absolute control. Commander
Muckle of the latter state, will offer res
olutions to that effect.
