EXPERIMENTS IN HYPNOTISM

In a lecture delivered before the
Kings College Medical Society Dr.. Milne
BramweH gave an interesting sketch Of
the subject OF hypnotism, says the Lon
don Hospital. Describing the expert
ments Of Florel. who tin recently was
medical director OF the BurghoH Asylum
and one OF the professors Of the Uni
versity OF Zurich, he said that be sue
ceeded IN hypnotizing nearly all Of his
asylum attendants, both male and fe-
male. large proportion OF them becom-
ing profound somnambules. For ten years
experiments we're made in regard TO the
use OF hy2notism IN the night watching
OF dangerous Iunatics- Warders were
hyDnotized and trained to sleep by the
bedside Of these patients and to awake
tie instant they heard them attempt 10
get out Of bed. the hypnotic suggestion
being made use Of 10 inhibit all sounds
which had no reference TO the duty laid
upon them. and it WAS found that ward
ers SO hynotized could perform night
day without showing signs OF fatigue
The results Of these experiments were,
# is said. uniformly successful, and no
accident OF any kind occurred.
IN regard to this and other applica-
tions OF hypnotism. Dr.. Bramwell re-
fers 70 the method OF Wetterstrand.
who, instead OF restricting himself tc
suggestions made IN the course Of a
shcrt hypnotic trance, advocated the use
OF the curative elects OF prolonged hyp-
aotic sleep. WetterstrsDd treated cpl
Iepsy and grave forms OF nervous disor-
der by keeping the patients in the hyp-
notIe trance Tor three or four weeks.

Where We Law in the Rear.

San Francisco Chroniele-In many
things we may remain in pupilage to
Europe for some time to come. There
are great lessons to be learned We can
not afford to overlook; but the useful
hints are too often lost on US, while We
seryilely bow TO modes foreign to our
genius. The most inventive people on
earth cannot yet trust itself to devise
hat or glove suitable TO its climate
and needs Our faculty of snowy as
similation has left out the most essen
tial facts OF life. Could We copy the
admirable roads of the Old World. the
modes OF cleaning and paving great
cities, the honest administration Of city
and town government by the noblest
citizens. the precautions taken TO protect
life On railroads. the rules against over
crowding public vehicles. large measures
OF comfort, safety and convenience
would be assured.

THE FIRST ENGLISH DAILY.

Two hundred years ago. early in the
second year OF the eighteenth century,
the first English daily paper was hawk
ed in the streets of London. says an
exchange. It was the Daily Courant,
which was Published next door TO the
Kings Arms Tavern, at Fleetbridge, on
the thoroughfare that is still the head
quarters OF English Journalism.
The -Courant'' consisted Of but a
single sheet about the size OF halt
sheet Of foolscap or deed paper. and
was printed Cnly on one side There
was no editorial comment and no ad-
Yertisements The only source from
which foreign news could be obtained
was the scant columns OF the papers
printed on the continent. principally
those of Paris. and credit was always
given to the journal from which the
selections were made. For an assur-
ance that We will not. under pretense

This attempt at accuracy in its news
gathering was the most modern thing
about the "Courant" There were
many weekly papers in existence at the
time, but their news was Of so unreIi-

The original owner OF the ''Courant'
was E. MaIlet and he succeeded in
proving that his own excellent concep-
tion OF an honest and honorable news
paper was a practicable possibility

The Trailing Arbutus

J.
Oh. the days. the arbutus daysl
They come from heaven On high
They wrap the world in brooding haze,
They marry earth and sky.
What lures me onward Ger the hills.
Or down the beaten trail?
Vague murmuring all the valley ais,
And yonder shouts the quail
Like mother bird upon her nest
The day broods Ger the earth;
Fresh hope and life I'LL every breast:
1 share the springs new birth.
II
Awake, arisel and April wise
Seek out a forest side.
Where under wreaths Of Yithered leaves
The shy sweet flowers hide
I hear the hum of red-ruff's drum.
And hark! the thrasber sings,
On elm tree high against the sky;
List to his mimickings.
Upon my soul. he calls the roll
OF all the birds O. the year:
"Veery!" "Chewink." ''Oriole!" "Bobo-
link"
"Haste!" Make hastel" Spring is
heret"
Now pause and mark the meadow lark
Send forth his call to spring:
Why don't you hear? 'Tls spring O. the

A piercing note from golden throat
Like dart from sounding string
All! the golden shaft twas he that
laughed
and lifted up his bill;
"WIck, wick!" wick, wick!" Wake

The swallows on the wing
In forest aisles are genial smiles
That greet thy blossoming.

Again the sun is over all,
Again the robins evening call

This IS because OF his age, for he is

disease lies at the bottom OF this dis
coyery. Adopting the theory that the

The Iooting Of a Denver and Rio

Earnest efforts were made at the re

passage of law carrying such severe
penalty that It might reasonably be
expected to discourage the rufians

In nothing IS the difference between

Railroad Conference

4 committee representing the ma
chinists OF all the divisions OF the Sou
thern Pacific Company is in conferen-
&c at Oakland with H. J. Small gen
esal superintendent of the motive pow
er, relative to making an arrangement
which will better the condition of the
company's employees.
The conference is wholly amicable
on both sides. and it is thought that
the concessions asked for by the men
will be granted.
The men desire a new agreement re-
latiye to apprentices which will pro-
vide for shorter apprenticeship. and
one which will permit Of promotion be-
ing made on the basis of ability and
worth.
The period of apprenticeship here
tofore has been five years. The machi
nists want this period of probation re-
duced to at least three, providing the
apprentice shows ability
The machinists also desire seven
holidays during the year instead OF
the four now allowed. The men are
desirous of having Labor Lay holi-
day, in order to participate in the de-
nonstrations during that time and to
aid in keeping alive the spirit OF en-
thus1asm among Workmen.
Another concession asked is that
those employees who are compelled to
work overtime on holiday be paid at
at the rate of a day and half for one
days work A uniform scale wage
all over the company's lines is also
asked. 1t seems that in California
the machinists receive slightly better
pay than the machinists in the employ
| of the company in other places. These
are desirous of receiving the same
compensation as the Caiifornians.-
