The use of hypnOtism as a means of
legal invest. cation has just been sane
toned by the Client court of appeals
in regard 10 case known as the Dor
remain trial" which il was found i'm
possible TO elucidate by means of or
binary evidence. 1t appears that in
the course of certain celebrations held
at Al0st in June, 1899. NJ w. Borre-
man merchant of that town. was Sc
rlously injured, and as a result up
ward of twenty arrests were made.
+ our of the defendants were fined and
one condemned 10 two months i'm
prisonment, while damages We're
awarded to the plaintiff. An appeal
was subsequently made on behalf of
defendants, arr a new trial has been
in progress for some time past. One
of the principal points put forward by
NJ. BOrreman was that as a result Of
the attack made upon him, he suffered
from deafness. Medical examination
having failed to give satisfactory evil
dence as to the degree Of deafness
from which he suffered. its cause, or
the probability of curing it. three eX-
perts who had charge of the case, and
among whom is professor OF Client
university, submitted that in order TO
elucidate these points they should hyp-
notize NJ. T -reman. The latter hay
ing given his consent, the court has
just sanctioned the carrying out OF the
proposal. This is the first time in Bel
GUM that the use of hypnotism has
been sanctioned for judicial purposes.
The result is awaited with consider

IL it had been on the program to per-
NIT Davenport TO win yesterday IS
game at the Rock Island league park
regardless of what might develop, the
result would have been considered a
success. After having made so
creditable a record away from
home. such an exhibition was not
only discouraging to the local
fans, but it was exasPerating. The
merited condemnation of the local
team is not due to the fact that they
lost The intelligent adlnirer of base
ball does not expect to see his team
win always, and prefers to witness a
game played on its merits under all
circumstances. But when he sees a
club on which he is stalking his hopes
start out like a whirlwind, and get q
good safe lead at the very outset, and
then lose out he becomes Disguised
That was the feeling of those who at
tended yesterdays game They saw
Rock Island 60 in TO win and then
throw away what advantages had
been gained. This is not base
ball. 1t is town ball. 1t de-
stroys confidence In the team,
and confidence is interest. Smith was
largely responsible for the result. His
unsteady pitching gave the visitors
many chances that led to run gettiug.
Had the management shown the good
judgment that Davenport did with it's
pitcher, Smith would have been taken
out early in the game. What was
lacking in unreliable ball in the quail
ity furnished by Smith was made up
by Young. Poor put up brave game
behind the bat and Hughes, the dummy
player, made a good impression on
his first appearance on the home
grounds.
Davenport Goes to Pieces.
Davenport went completely to
pieces at the outset, when Rock Island
fell on Boyle and batted him right
and left, but after Weihrauch had
been put in the box the red birds
steadied down. and demonstrated how
q game could be won under adverse
circumstances while Rock Island was
showing how one once well in hand
could be forfeited.
Rock Islands four runs in thu first
inning were made in this way: Hop
kins hit for two bases. Young drew
four. Hoy singled and Hopkins
scored. Tate knocked for a couple OF
sacks. scoring Young and Hoy,
and link singled, but was
caught trying for second. Tate was
nailed stealing home. Hughes. Poor
and Middleton followed with singles,
bringing in Hughes. In the third
Rock Island scored again on an error
by Mahin, q stolen base by link and
a single by Middleton. In this inning
Weihrauch was substituted for BOYLE
Davenport began to get in its work
in the third, Weihrauch pounding out
d g. bagger after two men were gone
and scoring Smith, VINO had gotten
his base on balls.
In the seventh, Mil. who had q rep
utation at stake, led of with q bit to
left that gave him a pass to third and
scored on Hoy's error. With Smith and
Weihrauch on second and third, Evers
found hole in left that entitled him
to two bags and, although he was put
out trying to make it three, the mis-
chief was wrought and the score tied.
In the ninth Smith, who was given
a base on a punch in the left fin.
scored on Weihrauch's timely hit to
left and the balance went to the
wrong side of the account. Rock
Island did not have a man on second
base after the third inning. Score:

SINKING SPELLS.
ALARMING SYMPTOMS DESCRIBED
IN A SWORN STATEMENT.
Mrs. w. +. Clark, OF Rome, N. Y. Tells
why She Is Now Recommending
Wellknowa Remedy to
Her Friends.

Indigestion and stomach trouble
have many results that are not always
readily traced to their real cause.
Sometimes the kidneys are apparently
affected but more often an irregulari-
ty of the heart s action produces far
more alarming symptom. The cause
is easily explained and is removed
when the stomach trouble is cured.
A case in point is that of Mrs. w. II.
Clark, of 318 West Thomas street,
Rome, N. Y. She says:
"To begin with, / had gastritis,
which brought on sinking spells for
about an hour every morning. was
very weak and nervous and finally was
compelled to take to my bed. My
illness began in the spring of 1897,
and continued for about four months.
For about half this time | was con-
fined to my bed. / suffered greatly
from the stomach trouble and ner-
vousness, but what alarmed me most
was the sinking feeling at the heart.
81 had read about DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People and when
some of my friends recommended the
pills very highly, / decided to give
them a trial. / bought one box and
by the time this was used up the sink
ing spells had ceased. felt better
but continued taking the pills until /
had used IL boxes. l still keep the
pills in the house for l believe that
they are splendid medicine. !

that is claimed for them.

writes:
A very young officer. who had gone
almost straight from school to the
army and thence to India. was leading
his company through a rocky pass, on
returning from a scouting expedition.
They were beset by the enemy, who
fired at them from behind the rocks,
and the men were growing very un-
steady. Those in the rear began to be
impatient. and shouted TO the men in
front.
Hurry up! What are you waiting
for there?"
The young officer answered quite
coolly: Hold on a minutel I'm light

And he struck a match and lit It.
There was roar Of laughter and a sol
der called out. "Well, since you're so
pressin'. think I'll have a pipe my
self" And he, too. struck a match and
began to smoke. This bit of fun stead
led the men, and they came through In
good order.
