HYPNOTIZED FROGS.

Some interesting and original experi- ments with frogs were recently made by Mile. NJ. Stefanowska of Brussels. the object being to show how they act when hypnotized.
 Frogs which have spent the winter In an aquarium can easily be hypnotized during that period when they are ex- hausted after a prolonged fast-name- ly. during spring and summer. As soon as they are turned on their backs they fall into a hypnotic state and in many instances are even seized with cata- lepsy.
 While they are hypnotized the action of their organs is practically suspend ed, and they are insensible to pain. The pupils of their eyes are always contracted and do not begin to dilat- until they awake, and, furthermore, their hearts beat slowly and their breathing is hardly perceptible. In this condition they may remain for a half hour, or even longer.

A SHREWD LOBBYIST.
Never Said Word in Public. but Was
 Wonderful Listener.

"One of the shrewdest lobbyists I ever saw" said an old politician who has visited nearly all the capitals of the southern states while the law making power was in session, was q fellow who never said a word. He came from the mountains of East Ten nessee, and was born and bred in that strange but beautiful section of the old volunteer state. His acquaintance was very limited. He did not seek to get acquainted with men. It was not in his line He found it to his advan- tage not to be known. He was d typi- cal mountaineer in appearance. If he had ever visited a barber shop, there was no indication of it in his ap- pearance. His hair was long. shaggy and uneven. and he had an iron-rust sort of cast. His long beard was a shade darker and covered his face and hid the front of his shirt. He had sharp. deep-set gray eyes. He wore boots and generally had his trous- CTS legs stuffed down in the tops. He wore a cheap slouch hat and always pulled it down over his eyes.
 ''I have seen him hundreds of times at the Maxwell house at Nashville, Tenn. while the legislature was in ses-
Arizona republican., 1902-02-27

sion, but I never heard him engage in conversat ton with single man or with crowd during that time. He was either leaning idly against one of the big pillars in the rotunda or walk ing aimlessly up and down the floor At the same time he was busy. He was listening. Of course, the shrewd men around the capital soon got on to him, as the saying goes, and when they discussed state secrets they would slip beyond the range of his hearing. He knew every public man in the state by sight, knew where he came from, and all about him. l have heard men who knew him discuss his character, and it is claimed for him that he had the most delicately attuned pair of ears ever hung on human head. While appar- ently needing nothing. and perhaps too far away to hear. from the way the or dinary man would look at 1t, he would yet hear and report accurate a half dozen conversations on as many sub jects at the same time. He would even know who said this and who said that Because of his talents in this re- spect he became of much value to the concerns interested in big legislation, and his services were always sought.
 He was simply a listener, but he became more powerful than dozen or more of the gabby fellows who deal in bombast and fiattering platitudes and who mixed with members in many ways. His business was to hear those things which came within the range of his ears. and he heard them and in select circles became known as the silent lobbyist."-New Orleans Times Democrat.
