Here is a rather strange instance Of
the relations of hypnotism to medical
jurisprudence: In Red Bud, Ills, q few
days ago a young man deliberately shot
and killed another young man. The
murder was premeditated. since thu
murderer had openly declared his in.
tention to kill his victim on sight and
made his promise good on the first &C.
casion which offered. After the shoot.
ing the murderer surrendered to the
sheriff. His explanation Of the occur
renee was that the man he shot ''had
hypnotized him to his detrilnant." The
coroner's jury seemed to be satisfied
with the explanation as good and sutfi-
cient, for they promptly rxonera1ed the
prisoner. This tends to eSta bliSh hypno,
tism, when practiced to the detriment
of the subject. as making homicide JUS
tifiable or at least excusuble. While Of
course one coroners jury does not make
the law, It's finding Is at least s!gnifi-
cant as showing that the popular con.
ception Of hypnotic influence is likely
to be given weight by jurors in murder
cases If skillfully presented.

Mark Twain's family have lived abroad

covered that Miss Clara had decided

spared to develop it. She became thor

she learned that her voice had exception

to train it under the best instructors. Her

voice trainers, and she then placed her.

procathedral is situated in one of the
most crowded sections of the east side of
New York, amid dense foreign popula-

out neglect of the spiritual and mission

young man, of about 80, and he has been
vicar of the church for two years. He
declares that the moral conditions of the
district adjacent to his church are simply
indescribable, and that when he went to
the police captain Of the district with a
complaint he was met with abuse and
insult.
Thereupon Mr.. Paddock carried his
complaint to higher police authorities,
without avail. The minister, believing
that he could do little unaided to miti-
gate the evils of which he complained,
laid the matter before his ecclesiastical
superior, Bishop Potter, man Of much
influence in the community. Bishop Pot
ter addressed an open letter to Mayor
Van Wyck, reciting the facts, and thus

"What becomes of all the different

sWered.
II carry a large stock of cigars, and !

have over % different brands Of 10
cent cigars and dozen or so different
brands Of the higher grade cigars re-
spectively.
'"This is an appetisins array to the pro.
fessional smoker and affords an almost
unlimited choice. The launching Of q
new brand of cigars upon the market is
an expensive undertaking and one which
Is attended with more or less risk. It
takes a lot Of capital, because cigars,
and new brands Of smoking tobacco, for
that matter, require lot Of persistent
and costly advertising. The maker must
compel his new buyers to give up some
other brand for his, and in order to &C.
complish this he must offer an induce
ment to attract the smoker.
by advertising he gets smoker to
say, III try this new brand of the grade
smoke If he likes it, he may stick to
It. II not, >he wanders off to another or
back to his old favorite. Men will swear
by certain brand for six months and
then abandon it forever for another in a
day. The dealer, if he is interested in
introducing new brand, will coax GUS
toner to try it, but the main reliance
is in advertising and in putting up good
grade of tobacco for the price. The
maintaining Of the same grade year in
and year out, however, is another mat
ter. and have seen the demand for
popular brand fall off right away as soon
as an inferior tobacco is used A smoker
will say concerning it: That's no good
now. Give me another brand
"a happy choice of name has great
deal to do with the success Of cigar,
and it is for this reason that makers use
the names Of popular stage favorites,
statesmen and others. Sometimes a new
brand will not take at all, and the makers,
retire it or substitute another name.
Others catch popular fancy at,once, and
enormous sales are made from the start.

PROTESTS AGAINST CHANG
Prince Ching Does Not Want
Him Appointed to Take
Earl LIS Place.
Believes That the Advice of
the Latter Is Absolutely
Essential.

Picking, Jan. 14.-The joint note of
the powers has finally been signed by
the Chinese peace commissioners.
Prince Ching signed Saturday and Ii
Hung Chang, who is better, signed it
Sunday.
1t is understood that the malady
from which Ii Hung Chang is suffer-
ing is Brights disease. He was feel.
ing worse Saturday and therefore
postponed the atlixing of his sigma
ture, but Prince Ching was hopeful
that he would be able to sign Sunday,
which proved to be the case.
Prince Ching has protested to the
court against the appointment said to
be contemplated of Viceroy Chang
Chih Tung as an envoy in place of Ii
Hung Chang. He believes the lat
ters advice absolutely essential, al.
though he believes it might be neces-
sary to appoint third plenpotetiary
for China and reiterates his desire for
the appointment of Sheng, who would
be acceptable to the foreigners.
So far as Cheng Chin Tung is con.
cerned the ENJOYS who know him per-
sonally say that while he is strongly
anti-foreign and has never made any
concealnent Of his dislikes and likes
they believe that he would be as salts
factory as Sheng and would therefore
make no objection on account of his
utterances. Indeed, the ministers
think it would be advantageous to
have Chang Chin Ting as a Chinese
plenipotentiary. .
