MYSTERIES OF MEMORY.

A discourse at the Royal institution
 was delivered by Dr. Charles Mercier upon Memory" Statioal or structural memory he defined as the enduring dis tlnction left in body by the transient incidence of motion. The behavior of an iron wire and wooden wand re- spectively. under such transient incl dence was displayed and it was point ed out that while the distortion in the wire was permanent, that in the wand slowly diminished. It was further demonstrated that a dynamic effect also remained in the distorted body. which was different in the two eases. By contrasting Ns behavior with that of a dead branch, the lecturer showed that in respect to these reactions the wood might be regarded as not only organized, but live, and proceeded to prove that this dynamic memory was inherent in every organism and organ lzed tisrue. reaching its highest devel- opment In the nervous system of man. The third form of memory. active mem ory, waa the altered process that took Dldct III II lis.Sut NlllCil lltu btNOlllt iAlt seat of structural memory, while the fourth, conscious memory, was the conscious accompaniment of those ac- tive memories which occurred in the superior regions of the nervous system. The lecturer remarked that from one
 point of view the whole material uni verse might be regarded as the aggre- gate of the structural memories of the experiences it had undergone. The dis tortions produced In the nervous sys- tenn by impressions on the sense organs or by other means varied greatly in degree In different parts of the dis turbed area, and, as the greater the distortion the more enduring it was. we found that complex memories or scenes or events faded not uniformly, but bit by bit.
 The lecturer deprecated the notion that there was any royal road to the improvement of the memory, though 1t could be vastly improved by patient labor concentration of the attention and constant exercise. Dynamic mem ory was the most distinctive and inn portant property of living matter. and it was owing to the fact that every change made in a living tissue facili- tated further change that all improve ment, progress and morality were due. Conscious memories arose only during the activity of structural memories in certain regions of the nervous system. used to be puzzled as to what had become of memories when We were not actually remembering them; they must be somewhere in the mind because they could always be brought forward when wanted, and yet they could not be in the mind because we were not conscious of them, and an mental state was con- tradiction in terms. The lecturer ex- plained ,4e difficulty by showing that what was meant by well stored mind was a large number of structural mem ories. When the memory was not being 1t was not a state Of con- except potentially. but mere structural arrangement. just as a photographic record was not a sound, but n number of little gutters cut in a waxen cylinder-arrangeme of structure. Only when the photograph was put in motion did the soundo issue, and only when the nervous tissue be- came active did conscious memory arise.-London Times.

The republican newspapers seem to be deriving great satisfaction from the fact that Psttigrew and Towne have broken into the millionaire class, but they are probably not half so tickled over it as the lucky ex-senators. Even populism has its recompense.-Arizon Silver Belt. There Is one republican newspaper which has no interest what ever in Pettigrew and Towne or Joe Bailey. If they have committed the crime of becoming millionaires we hope they may be duly punished.

The Tillman- McLaurin dispute i

The Tillman- McLaurin dispute in South Carolina. to which reference is
 made in another column A of The Republican this SOUTHERN morning. is likely to PORTENT. give impetus to the
 movement throughout the United States for a reorganization of the democratic party Mir, Bryan is bidding defiance to those who would presume to amend the national plat- form. and in this he is grossly incon- sistent. The platform of 1896 was a great departure from all preceding platforms, since it incorporated in the old party creed the tenets of populism. Not all of those who supported free silver and the other fantastic notions to be found in the Chicago platform believed in them. Many of the advo- cates of Bryanism are demagogues, who actually thought the silver ques- tion winning issue and feared to meet the republicans on the tariff is- sue. Now that it is perceived that the matter of the gold standard Is settled, at least for long time to come and that the tariff, being largely a matter of adjustable schedules, is always an economic issue. the demagogues are as ready to denounce Bryanism as they were to support it. In this category We do not classify Senator Tillman. He is in a class of his own-unique. He was a populist democrat before Bryan came to the fore, and he remains Bryanits. because he himself is essen- tially populist.
 The agitation over the McLaurin af- fair will encourage southern democratic who are tired of Bryanism to record their views aud re-enter the circle of political activity. Few of them vii! go So far as McLaurin, whose disposition is not merely to abandon the populistic democracy, but to all intents and pur- poses democracy itself. But they are tired of the domination of such men as Tillman and they may in time wrest from him his supremacy. Already the joint resignation of the two senators has precipitatsd half dozen candi- dates for the succession. It is not inn probable that the chastening of Me Laurln will involve the humbing of Tillman. and that, although he may cling for a time to the sceptre of au- thority, saner sentiment will be im- parted to South Carolina politics. a re- suit from whose development will be the restoration of men of intelligence and refinement to the democratic lead ership.
 There Is a homogeneity about the south not so clearly manifested in other sections, and the impulse of South Car olina's storm center is likely to be felt in the neighboring states. With white supremacy assured, the bourbOnism of the southern democracy would be con frontsd with peril it has not hitherto been calle d to faee-the demand of progressive citizens for political creed and practice more in consonance with thS spirit of the times.

WOMEN RUN FIRE COMPANY.
Organize a Volunteer Department in
 q Chicago Ward.

Mont Clare is not regarded even in the Twenty-seventh ward as a parti- cularly promising section of Chicago yet 1t can boast of the possession of one acquisition that cannot be dupli- rated within the broad domain of the metropolis. It has volunteer fire de- partment controlled and managed by women, and since its inception two weeks ago no blaze has been able to get 1 beyond the precincts of the kitchen.
 The existence of this novel organiza- tion was made known to the outside world yesterdy, when Mrs. c. E. Emas. assistant marshal and Miss Harriet F. Sayre, captain. accompanied by Alderman Kenney of the ward called upon Chief Swenie to request im- provement In their fire fighting appa- ratus.
 The fact that property owners in Mont Clare were organizing volunteer corps was communicated to the chief and forthwith he sent out a chemical engine of antiquated design. The first trial of the machine resulted in the collapse of the soda box and the frac- ture of the acid jar. This made the en- ergetic women indignant. and they hunted up the alderman and conducted him to the city hall. The long car ride and the chiefs genial manner quleted their temper.
 "rhis machine was all right when 1t left here" the veteran said "Tll have to get after the driver. I will see that the machine is put to rights"
 A request for rubber coats was made. but this the chief said he could not grant
 There are two volunteer fire com panies in the Twenty-seventh ward, and the:e are the only ones in the city" Alderman Kenney said. "Thc chemical engine. when in order. will throw water half an hour It is to be pulled by hand. When 1t is fixed we will be eager for fire to see what our new company will do''
 People generally do not know that We have mayor. too. Tn Hermosa. where there 1000 people, the name of Mayor c. J. Gegenheimer is house. hold word. He is just as old as Mayor Harrison. Al years. and his birthday comes in the same month! Of course he 1? not named on q ticket"
 This is the second volunteer fire com pany of Chicago. and the only one, ac- cording to Fire Marshal Swene. in which women have offered their ser vices.
 The form of organization under which the department was established is as follows:
 We. the undersigned. have agreed to form the members of the Mont Clare volunteer fire apartment to protect the people of Mont Clare from fire.
 We also agree and appoint A. c. Koethe our marshal. Mrs. O. F. Emas our assistant marshal and Miss Har- rlet ID. Sayre our captain, and we here by authorize the marshal to see that supplies are not wanting for operating the chemical engine, to keep and have the chemical engine always ready for immediate service and obtain such other apuliances ao are of service to aid us in working at fire. e."-Chcago Chronicle.
