one other case like it," said DR.. Small.
THAT is the case of Pastor Hanna of
New York reported by DR.. Boris Sidis
in his book on Psychology OF Sugges-
tion.' The disease is known as ma
nesia. One peculiar thing about the
case is that Mr.. Washburn always re-
membered his name. This may be ac-
counted for in this way. When he en-
tered the Rock Island hospital his
name was found in papers on his per-
son. During his stay and at his dis
charge from the hospita. he was called
by his right name, and it remained
with him."

Columbia, S. c., Oct 1.-THE attor-
ney general has rendered a decision
that will affect a good many schools

The law, as now construed by the at
torney general for the information of

Incidental fees. Rock Hill made the
test, that school having a charter per-
hitting fees TO be charged in certain
cases. The attorney general holds
there must be no charges for anything
the law contemplating public school
system absolutely free.

FEATURES OF THE WILD WEST.
Major Burke Explains Some of Buff
faIo BiIIs Attractions.

Major Burke Explains Some of Buff
faIo Dilrs Attractions.
Buffalo Bill and his Wild West
will be in Savannah next Thursday.
1t is five years since Maj. Burke was
in Savannah in connection with the
big exhibition whose popularity seems
without limit. At the De Soto yester-
day he explained many things about
the famous show.
THE Canadian Mounted Rifles. the
Strathcona Horse, a detachment OF
Colonial South Africans, and a squad
ron of genuine Boer soldiers, add
strong additional human interest to the
Wild West show this year" said Maj
Burke. This is its first visit here in
FIVE years The Beers with Col Cody
are invaded men from different COM
mands, and most of them have been
through the entire campaign. Most of
them have been several times wound
ed They fought under Cronje, DeWet
and Botha. Cronje's surrender, by
the way. was largely brought about
by the Canadians, who, 1t will be re-
membered on the last night crawled
UP to within 700 feet, and when day
light arose had command of the now
famous lager. The Canadians were
recruited from the mounted policemen
hunters, cowboys, and gentlemen
sportsmen of Canada. They not only
won the respect of the Beers, but as.
tonished the Imperial generals and au'
thorities, and the foreign military at
taches.'
1.-The Beers arrived at New York
last March. The Canadians arrived on
the Numidian at Halifax, having come
direct from South Africa, Each MEM
Der was presented in London with a
medal by King Edward VII. | went
to Halifax and secured these Canadi-
ans, and each man among both the
Canadians and Beers has his written
discharge, and can show his wounds.
Notable among them is Macarthur, for
whose rescue young Richardson, of OF
tawa, received the Victoria Cross.
Another new feature is a party from
the Government Life Saving Corps,
with their apparatus and bomb-firing
lifeline machine. These men have
seen actual service. and the exhibition
to be given will be highly educational
to all. as showing what money the
Government expends, how it is utiliz-
ed, and what benefits accrue from il.
Another effective feature is the battle
of Pekin, which has a peculiar interest
to-day, as being one or the latest ex-
hibitions of dash and daring, and di-
rectly connected with the United States
Army history. Colonel Cody is fortun>
ate in having with him representatives
of all the allied forces; he can there
fore give the variegated costumes and
the military effectiveness with absolute
adherence to truth. All the other feat
ures that belong to heroic horseman-
ship are retained, and. II anything. are
more effective than ever before. The
Endorsement at New York this year is
proof of this; II is an actual fact that
more people were turned away there
within three weeks than obtained adj
mittance TO the exhibition.

RATES ARE NOT LOWERED.
cambridge People Kick with No
Results.

cambridge. Ga, Act. 1.-THE COM
mittee appointed at the citizens mass
meeting last week to investigate the
trouble in freight rates between the
Georgia, Florida and Alabama Rail-
way and the Central Railway and
Plant System, have been to see the off,
Gals of the two roads, but received no
satisfactory reply
They got promises to see what could
be done and report later, but it is
thought that the matter will stand as
it is. The freight rates to and from
cambridge have not been raised, ex,
cept over the Georgia, Florida and
Alabama. That is. cambridge ship
pers are compelled to ship over the
Plant System or pay local rates over
the Georgia, Florida and Alamaba
plus the regular rates over the Central.

err That They Are Up Against 1t.
Columbia. S. c., oct. 17,-"Hanna is
a good man to fight but a hard man to
beat. so we do not wish to fight him"
That was a remark made this morning
by one of the leading members of the
State Executive Committee. 1t had ref
erence to the action of the committee
last night which nominated e. w.
Screven for national committeeban,
but conceded Mr.. Hanna's right to fiu
the place by the appointment of Capt.
John G. Capers until the National
Committee meets.
Privately the "old liners" feel out
ragged that the national chairman dis
regarded their nomination of Deas for
the place, but they feel 1t will be bad
policy to express themselves. Deas,
the mulatto state chairman, withdrew
and left the committee free to nomi-
nate for the place man who is a
gentleman by birth and education and
against whom not word can be said.
In the naming of George II. Higgins
for the collectorship the committee has
also profited by the announcement of
President Roosevelt that he would
consider only clean and competent men.
Mr. Higgins has been identified with
the party for only about half dozen
years, is comparatively a young man,
has good business qualifications and a
perfectly clean record.
Mr.. Screven Is a member of the fam
lily of that name which is so we'll
known in South Carolina and Georgia.

South Georgia.

CHARL LESION HAS A MYSTERY.
WOrkmen Bring Up Human Foot
on King Street in Heart of City.

on King street in Heart of City.
Charleston, s. c.. Oct. 17.-Workmen
employed at one of the busiest points
on King street. the leading thorough
fare of Charleston, directly in front of
St. Mathews German Lutheran
Church, made a CHASTITY find this MORN
ing. AS they turned up the earth with
their shovels they brought to light a
human foot. Where the member came
from. or how it found so unconvention-
al resting place, is a profound mys-
terry.
The police have taken the matter up
and are making a thorough investiga-
ton, but at the present time they have
absolutely no clues upon which to
work. The foot looked as though 1t
had been amputated at the ankle or the
Joint, and was in an advanced stage of
accommodation. Within the last ten
days or two weeks new earth has been
brought to that part of the street.
which is being improved, from the
banks of the Ashley river, not far dis
tant from the city hospital. The ply
sicians in charge of the institution,
however. absolutely deny that the foot
comes from any of their recent pa
tents.
The detectives are of the opinion that
it is possible that a murder has been
committed. and that the guilty persons
have been disposing of their victim
in piecemeal, the foot found to-day
having been thrown out upon the banks
of the Ashley or buried there possibly,
and from that point brought to the
spot at which it was to-day discovered
by the city employees.

SEPARATION OF RACES.
Senator Cam Is for a Law ReGuir-
ina IL uf Companies.

Senator J. f. Cam said yesterday
that he believes there should be sep
aration of the races aboard street cars.
He would not approve law requiring
separate cars for whites and blacks, as
that would be too great a hardship
upon the street railawy companies, but
he thinks there should be law requir-
ing separate seats for the races. Rep
resentative Fielder Of Macon Will IN
troduce a bill in the House, requiring
street railway companies to separate
the races. Should the measure pass
the House and reach the Senate, II
would seem from Senator Cams ex-
preston that it would secure his sup
port
The question of the separation oil
the races aboard the street cars In ga
vannah was disposed of by the city
Council a few weeks ago. The opin-
ion of the city attorney was that the
city could not legislate upon such
matter. Any action, therefore, must
be taken by the Legislature.
