Impressions are those of President Nc

sentatives.
Some palmists. at least, are willing
to take their own medicine. This 10
evidenced in the case of DR.. Perrin. and
probably II the data was obtainable
other cases might be found of other
palmists less great who would believe
their own readings. While in Chi
cago DR.. Perrin made readings Of the
hands of two men, Paul Hirsch and
Louis Enright. These two men had
been interested in contracting, and
1t seems had been the promoters of a
railroad from Canon City and Cripple
Creek. Colo. There was some trouble,
however, and the result was that while
the two men were away the directors
OF the road swore out warrants
against the men for embezzlement Of
$4,000, and they were arrested when
they arrived in Denver at the Palace
hotel. 1t SO happened that DR.. Perrin
read the newspaper accounts and re-
membered the names of the men He
consulted his Impressions and was so

accused that he went to Denver at

The mark of cruelty. as will be
seen in the illustrations, runs from the
ring finger toward the mount of Jupl-
ter. The hook is on the edge of the
heart line. under the mount of Sat
urn. Long before Theodore Durand,
the murderer of Blanche Dumont and
Minnie Williams, in San Francisco,
came to trial, took an impression of
his hand, made my study from It,
wrote my opinion that he was a mur-
derer, and, sealing my notes, left them
in vault to be opened after the trial
was over. l made my predictions, and
after the trial was concluded they
were opened. and my findings were
according to the facts. l discovered
the hook and l knew that he was
guilty.
In 1887 Broulent, the murderer of
his wife and child. whose case was
among the most famous in Paris,
France, for years. was to be tried for
the double murder on circumstantial
evidence. Before he came to trial I
wanted to get an impression Of his
hand. According to the rules of law
there the business Of caller must be
explained to man under arrest be-
fore he can be admitted The first
day l applied he sent word that he
was indisposed, but that he would see
me within a week. When | called
again he had burned out the inside
of his palm to prevent its secrets from
being read. l cite this as a remark
able case wherein abject fear Of the
truths of palmistry caused an extreme
self-infiction. He was convicted and
executed Just the same.
Not long ago took an impression
OF the palm OF Roslin Ferrell, the Co.
lumbus man who killed Express Mes
senger Lane. and took an impress
sion Of the palm Of Molineux, but
failed to find the telltale mark. am
unable to satisfy my own mind, after
careful study of his palm, as to
whether he is or is not a murderer"
The Grit-advocate., 1900-10-12

For ten thousand years the fate OF
men has looked out through the mil
lions OF lines in the palms of their
hands. The hands are the windows
OF the soul instead Of the eyes. Along
the ridges. the valleys and the noun
tains OF the palm destiny was writ
ten. and there it is read If the reader
be deep in the science Of palmistry.
Man is irrevocably mixed up with the
eternal, can neither voluntarily nor
involuntarily escape or even oppose the
inscrutable verdict of the eternal. All
things are. and the past as well as
the future are only local applications
used for small conveniences. There
are no such things in reality as up or
down, north. east, south or west. They
belong to the mundane, which, com
pared with the infinite. is indeed a
trihing matter in the economy of the
universe.
So says DR.. Carl Louis Perrin, the
great master OF palmistry, who has
been shown favors by kings and hon.
leges for his remarkable delvings into
the secrets of the open palm in scien-
tific ways.
i was with Luetgert, the Chicago
sausage maker who killed his WIFE"
said DR.. Perrin, "and in him found
remarkable instance where the face
could not be relied upon for informa-
tion regarding the soul. He received
me with gushing cordiality and ap-
peared one OF the most open-hearted
persons imaginable. wanted to get
an impression OF his palm, for I be-
lieved that there was the regulation
mark OF cruelty in it. and the mur-
derer's hook. By the 'murderer's

observed in the picture. Nearly all

SUBMARINE FIGHTER.
Aysterioos Torpedo Boat In Course OF
Construction at stamford.

Construction at stamford.
torpedo-boat has been in process OF
construction at Ware Island, OFF SIAM
ford, Conn. Great secrecy has been
maintained by the builder and com
paratively little is known Of the plan
OF the boat or what she is expected
to accomplish. To a casual observer
the boat looks like great cigar paint
ed bottle green. Its length is given as
fifty feet over all. The bow is sharp.
the stern rounded. The boat is fitted
with heavy ram made Of maple and
tapers from six inches to perhaps
twenty-five in diameter. 1t is four feet
six inches long and fitted on the end
is a steel plug which tapers to point.
The shell of the boat is OF yellow
pine, bound with iron hoops, covered
with coatings Of ship felt and pitch.
Galvanized iron covers the coatings
OF pitch and felt On the top of the
craft is deck conforming to the shape
of the boat There is also a coming
tower, with two torpedo loops. The
machinery is connected with the con-
ming tower. Electricity is the motive
power used. 1t is said that three men
will compose the crew. The torpedo
loops are made water tight by prep
aration of rubber and copper. A rub
ber cap also screws down over the top
of the tower outside and encircling the
deck are several exhaust pipes. The
craft will be propelled by water taken
in through openings, one on each side,
about four feet from the stern of the
craft and we'll down toward the princi-
pal keel. These openings are connect
ed with pumps which are operated by
two engines of 1000 horse power each.
From the pumps run four seven-nch
copper pipes, two in each side OF the
boat. The water forced through these
pipes passes out through two openings
in the blunt stern of the boat and.
water in which the boat rests, forces
1t ahead. 1t is not calculated that
very great speed will be attained. To
the stern is fitted cap of iron bolted
with wood to make it tight. This cap
is connected with lever on the inside
of the boat and when it is desired to
back the vessel the cap is placed
partly over the vents in the stern.
This gives the water emerging through
the opening backward movement and
causes the boat to go back, There are
two dynamos, which are operated by
the two engines mentioned. Kerosene
is used as fuel. There are fourteen
tanks in the bottom of the boat, capa-
Bile of holding fifty-fve barrels Of oil
This 2,700 gallons OF kerosene also an
swers the purpose of balance. When
a tank has been exhausted provision
is made to take in sea water to refill it,
The interior Of the boat is divided into
three sections. In the rear is the en-
gine-room. in the center are the lock-
ers and apartments for the crew and
in the bow is stere-room. The in
terror is braced by an octagonal frame
of wood and iron. The craft will be
lighted throughout by electricity. So
far as can be learned there is no pro-
vision made for leaving the boat when
it Is under water.
