c. H. Bareford of Bareford & Lawson Makes Statement About Assignment

Louisville, July 5.-In explanation of the assignment Wednesday of the wholesale millinery firm of Bareford & Lawson, with liabilities s58,0OO and assets of $20, 900, Chas. H. Bareford today made the fol- lowing statement: "As it is becoming apparent that there is a shortage in the funds of the firm am willing to give out all at present that I know. About a month ago went to French Lick Springs to recuperate, and when I returned I found the books of the firm hopelessly entangled and MT. Lawson out of the city I have no idea of the whereabouts of MT Lawson"
 MT Bareford refused to say what the discrepancy in the books of the firm amounts to, though 1t is said to be not less than $SO;OO0 The Rev. J. M. Lawson pastor of West Broadway Methodist church, the father of Orville W. Lawson, of the firm of Bareford & Lawson, said today that his son had gone to Lexington Ky, with his wife on a visit, and had then gone to New Orleans and Mexico on a business trip. The Rev. MT.

QUARTETTE HANGED.
Four Negro Murderers Who Confessed
 Their Crime Pay the Penalty.

Chipley, Fla, July 5.-At Vernon, six teen miles from here, four negroes were hanged today for murder The names of the negroes were Belton Hamilton. John Simmons, Jim Harrison and Will Will Hams
 They had been convicted of killing a helpless negro and almost killing his wife. It was adduced in the evidence that the three had warned their victim, Jeff Davis, to leave certain turpentine camp. Davis obeyed instructions at once, but was forced to return to get his household goods. He came back October 20 last, and was at once spotted by his enemies, who surrounded him in his home and, stationing themselves behind con- venient trees. proceeded to riddle the cabin with rife balls. Davis was told to put his gun outside, which he did, and was soon afterwards dragged from his house and shot to death while in his wife's arms. During the trial Hamilton on cross-examination confessed, saying: "Ih guilty, before God, am guilty, and I ought to be hung until dead" By his confession three others were convicted John Simmons had killed another negro. The town of Vernon is without railroad connection and long rides were made by masses of people. At least 20O0 were pres ent. The four negroes were made to as- cend the gallows at one time and after short statements from each. all claiming to be on the road to heaven, the trap was sprung. Only one neck was broken. the others having died from strangula- tion.

WHEN THE EYE DOES NOT SEE.
A New Law of Vision DIscovered-lts
 Application.

Hartford, Ct, Dispatch to Evening Post.
 Two series of Investigations of far reaching importance to physiological optics have been complied during the past year in the psychological laboratory of Wesleyan University at Middletown by Professor Raymond Dodge and stu dents of the university. The first series definitely established a new law of vision, almost revolutionary in its consequences. It was proven that the eyes, when in mo- ton, can distinguish nothing in any complex field of vision over which they sweep. In order to see any object at rest, the eye must remain motionless, looking at some definite part of 1t for an apprecia- ble length of time. If the eyes move, they see nothing for about one-twentieth of a second This explains the success of those sleght-of-hand tricks in which rapid movements of the fingers are abso- lutey unseen, while the eyes follow the larger movements of the hand. It also explains the necessity of looking at @ relatively fixed point in boxing. fencing, etc.
 While the new law will necessitate a reinvestigation of many psychological problems, 1t has an especially obvious bearing on the psychology of evading. Four years ago, In collaboration with Prof. Benno Erdmann, then of the Uni versity of Halle, Prussia, Prof. Dodge demonstrated that contrary to the gen. eral impression, the eyes do not move regularly over a page as we read, but makes a series of distinct pauses as they sweep along each line of print At that time evidence was found which seemed to show that the eyes actually saw the words only during these pauses. That evidence has recently been called in question by eminent authorities. The new experiments finally settle the ques- tion beyond all doubt, and justify ths psychologically, as well as pedagogically, important conclusion that in reading tho true unit of stimulation is not the indi- vidual letter, but a more or less ex- tended group of letters.
 People of middle age remember that before they learned to read they had to first 'learn their Ietters." then they were
The age-herald., 1901-07-06

taught to put the letters together to make words, and finally they learned to read. Nowadays, children learn to read words before they learn the individual letters. According to Dr. Dodge's experiments, this fast method has a good psychological basis.
 The second series was a quantttative study of the eye movements, with particu- lar reference to the rapidtty of reading. This series involved the invention of an unique method of measuring the move ments of the eye and the designing of a considerable amount of new apparatus, by the aid of which the first accurate meas- urements of the eye movements were af- fected. These measurements not only show the length, number and velocity of the movements of the eye during reading but they also furnish the first exact data for a study of the coordination of the eyes and the muscular fatigue of reading.
