LONDON, Oct. 1s.-Up to noon to-day
no confirmation had been received OF
the report Of serious Bosr losses at Maj

various points so persIstently and cir

the burghers have met with some meas

Accounts OF the action at Mafeklns
are beginning to arrive from Pretor-
ID. Therefore II the Beers had any sue.
cess It Is bound soon to be known.
AS foreshadowed yesterday they have
succeeded in cutting on the water sup
ply Mt Mafeklng, but It Is said there are
sufficient wells In the town to supply
the Inhabitants.
A new and serious element in the mill
itary situation Is the rising Of the war-
like tribe OF BasutOS. under Chief Mo-
hoko. against the Orange Free State.
The British must keep the Basutos
QUIET, and the paramount chief. Lero-
thodl, has thus far behaved well. Re-
ports are current, however, that the
other chiefs may follow the example OF
Mohoko.
Moreover the unrest among the tribes
nel Is spreading into Zulula."

The burghers fred upon the train with

which then steamed on, after which
the burghers continued the work OF de-

NAME CENTER LOCATED.
Curious Mental Phenomena Is Scion
tIflcnIIy ExnInIned.


Albany Journal: Most persons occa-
slonally experience the annoyance of
finding themselves suddenly unable to
remember a familiar name. The name
may slip from memory Just as the mind
is In the act OF recalling 1t and the lips
are about to pronounce 1t. Sometimes
1t Is possible to bring the suddenly van
ished word back to memory by a strong
and concentrated mental effort: more
often all endeavors are in vain. In the
latter case the victim OF the lapse of
memory can soonest bring the forgotten
name back TO mind by relaxing all eff
forts to remember. Usually, when he
has done that. the name comes back
as suddenly as It departed.
Years ago, an Austrian scientist de-
clared that the human brain contains a
name center" that is, cell whose
Office is the retention of names OF per-
sons and things, He said It Is situated
under the temple. Heretofore medical
men had never been able to prove or
or dlsprove the theory. but recently a
surgical case in the city OF Cleveland
gave physicians OF that city the long
desired opportunity.
E1IClCk MulnalT, brakeman, was
shot In the head. and as result OF his
injury he could not remember the name
Of any person or thing, though he was
conscious and rational. He described
the man who shot him. hut could not
recall his name. though he knew that
he had known 1t. He could not remem-
Der even his own name. Different arti-
cles were placed before him and he was
asked to name them. but he was unable
TO do so. At the same time he could
describe their uses.
The physicians who attended the man
concluded that the bullet was pressing
upon the name center" OF the brain
and had paralyzed H. They prnhed for
Il. and found II exactly where the Aus
TRAN scientist had declared that center
TO be situated. When the bullet was
removed and the pressure on that part
OF the brain was thus relieved. the
wounded mans memory Of nameR re-
turned. and he became Mt once able to
tell the name Of his asSallnnt.
Medical men consider the proof OF the
Austrian SCIENTISTS theory OF great i'm
portanCe. But Il remains for them to
discover the means by which persons
who suddenly md themselves unable to
remember familiar Nance can arouse
the sluggish name center" 10 activity.
