a very common ST ght to see some inoffen-
sive and miabIls subject fero,ciously
seeking to stab pei laps his dearest friend
with a paper knife or to shoot him with
a ruler or other h armless object. But
there are cases to SHOW that under such
circumstances the .SubconsciousnesS is
aware of the actual harm1essness of the
procedure, and that, u nder circumstances,
in which real harm cou Id be done or when
such would. wrongly. seem to the SUBJ
ject to be possible, the subject becomes;
rebellious to the influence of the sugges :
ton. Further, if these absurd pleas t
hypnotisn1 are to be accepted, then In a IL
forms of mob violence and crowd su'5-
gestons we must logically hold the doe; rs
of violence unanswered BILE for their act s.
The man who is 'hypnotized,' the subj :ct
of crowd suggestion and the victim of
morbid impulses, most commonly of he
sexual type, stand in the same CategO ry,
and should all be judged by the sd me
rules. Not all subjects of morbid perv err
sion are irresponsible; neither are all eo-
pie who plead .hypnotism' as an exc use
for their crimes, nor all tra-nsl,ressors I'M
der the influence of crowd suggestion as
Such a plea should be received with the
greatest caution, and in regard to by pno-
tism. as in the other cases. the entire
morbid chain Of perversion should be
clearly demonstrated before the sui )ject
is held to be irresponsible and is ahse lived
from the consequence of his crime.

The New York World of yesterday
came out in magazine form, with four
columns TO the page and ttlirty-two pages
in all. On the first page is an outline
of the leading news items of the day
local, telegraph and cable. The news of
the paper throughout is in condensed
form and every inch of space is econo-
mized.
This is in accordance with Mr. Alfred
HarIns,worth's suggestion of the Twentieth
Century newspaper. At the invitation
of the editor of the World, Mr.. Harms
worth assumed for twenty-four hours the
control of the paper and gave the Ameri-
can public a sample of his system of
condensed or tabloid Journalism The
paper is of convenient size and shape,
the news of tile day is we'll covered and
we do not hesitate to say that we like
it. But In this day OF sensational display,
ne doubt If the great American public
would be satisfied with such a modest
conservative paper as Mr.. Harmsworth
has made, and the World is not apt to
perpetuate the experiment As We said

has developed, as we'll as for American

THE new idea in railway manage
