A Burglar Hanged.

At the July term of the supreme
court held in Albany, in 1889, Elihu
Smeeds, of Pittstown, indicted for the
murder of Ezekiel Mitchell, and con-
victed of manslaughter, was sentenced
to receive 80 lashes at the public whip
ping post, and be imprisoned three cal.
endar months. Six others, convicted OF
stealing, were condemned to receive 80
lashes each; while about the same time,
Francis Uss, convicted of breaking open
and robbing store in Poughkeepsie,
was publicly hanged. Criminal justice
was a trifle peculiar in those days, to
say the least.-Albany Argus.

Scientific study Of Dreams.

Psychologists have undertaken the
scientific study of dreams. When the
olfactory sense of sleeper is stimu-
lated by an odor, such as that of hello
trope, not only does he dream of SMELL
ing violets," but visual images of flow
ers appear to him. If the experiment is
prolonged the dream vision becomes
complex and filled with strange inn
agery. A vibrating tuning fork held
near sleeper's ear made him dream of
a lion roaring, and when little salt
and water was put on his tongue he
dreamed that he was eating olives.
