MYSTERIOUS RUINED CITY.
Honduras Government Has Stopped the
Work of Excavation.

Honduras GovernInent Has Stopped the
Work of Excavation.
All work on the ruins Of the great
prehistoric city of C0pan, in Honduras,
has been suspended by order of the
TIonduran government. Extensive ex-
cayations have been made at Copan Dy
agents of the Peabody Exploration
Fund, and great. palaces and temples,
giant stairways and broad plazas have
been uIiearthed. Enough was uncover
ed to show that Copan was the capital
of a great empire which has entirely
vanished, leaving no history, not even
traditional history, behind it which
man as yet can read.
The government of Honduras gave
no valid reason for stopping the ex-
cavations, and the custodians OF the
Peabody Exploration Fund hope to be
able to get permission to resume work
next year, as the prohibition seems TO
be only the result of temporary freak
on the part of the native officials.
Meantime a wall has been built around
a part of the excavated city and watch
men. living in huts amid the ruined
palaces of forgotten kings, keep away
natives who might deface and destroy
the elaborate stone carvings and
sculptures.
The history of Copan and its mighty
warriors, wise statesmen and splendid
kings is all written on numerous col
umns of stone and on the walls OF the
palaces and temples, but no man as
vet can read the inscriptions. Archaeo-
logists of the Peabody Museum have.
however, mastered the calendar OF the
vanished people, and, with this as
starting point, are gradually making
progress toward the acquisition OF
knowledge of the language of the mys-
terious people of the forgotten empire.
If the work on the ruins of Copan
can be resumed next year it is expect
ed that many finds will be made
which will be of the greatest import
ance to American archaeology.

I'VE camped that evening, conceal
ing our force, and sent cut scouts.
Our enemy, the scouts reported. were
hunting buffalo, and their camp was
just few miles ahead. We moved
during the night, and at daybreak
came within sight of the Comanche
lodges. Eighty Of these We counted,
which, allowing four male fighters to
a lodge, brought up the fighting force
to something like 300 braves. Just at
sun up hostile Indian on horseback
appeared, and at once excitement
broke loose among my own Indians,
and they yelled and gave the whole
scheme away, for the solitary rider,
of course heard them. The Tahuahua-
cans were ordered out front, SO that
we could keep the rangers as a sort
of surprise. Then we charged, rails
ing the Texas yell and bearing down
on the Comancbes like living ava
lanche. The fight proved one sided
About those days the mere yell of the
rangers was enuogh to strike terror
to the heart of & small band of Indi-
ans, and here though the enemy was
IN sufficient numbers to make resis-
lance, there seemed a thousand rang
ers the way they we're spread out. The
Comanches cut and ran, deserting
everything and spreading fanlike SO
that it was impossible almost to fol-
low any one band. So we decided to
come back, having slain more than so
of them. All about us We could make
out Indians skulking at safe distance
in the hills, and we were just ready to
proceed to proper looting of the
place to recover stolen goods when a
second and much larger outfit of In
dians hove up out of nowhere and pre-
pared to give us fight.
"One huge Indian on the opposite
side dared any Indian on our side TO
come out to fight him single-handed,
and five CT the Tahuahuacans went
down in single combat before we
turned the rangers loose. After all, the
fght made was more spectacular
than bloody. The instant the rangers
were released the Indians fed for dear
life, and only those that blundered in
to range were killed or dropped.

Father of rhirty-two Daughters.

John w. Street of Mount Vernon, ILL.,,
was arrested at Evansville, Ind, and
the non-payment of his board bill, and
had a hearing before Judge Thorning,
of that city. 1t was necessary, in or
der to escape conviction, that John w.
Street should set up a strong defense
in the way of palliating circumstances,
at least. He did so by declaring under
oath, first, that he was SO years of age;
secondly, that he had incurred the
debt for board and lodging pending
the success of his efforts to obtain en-
ployment; thirdly. that he was the
father of 80 children, all girls, and,
fourthly, that a large number of his
daughters were still dependent upon
him for support. Despite the fact that
the proof of debt was positive and con-
elusive, the case was dismissed and he
was set at hberty.-Chicago Inter

hYPNollsM AND MORAL CURES.
The Resul, of Experiments in an Inssn'

he Result of experiments In an insane
isyium.
In lecture delivered before the
Kings College Medical Society DR..
Milne Bfamwell gave an intenastine
sketch on the subject of hypnotism.
Describing the experiments of Forel,
who till recently was medical director
of the BurghoIzi Asylum and one OF the
professors of the University of Zurich,
he said that he succeeded in hypnotlz-
ing nearly all his asylum attendants
both male and female, large proper
tion of them becoming profound SOM
nambales. For ten years experiments
were made in regard to the use OF hyp-
notism in the night watching OF dan
gercus lunatics. Warders were hyp-
Noticed and trained to sleep by the
bedside of these patients and to awake
the instant they heard them attempt to
get out of bed, the hypnotic suggestion
being made use of to inhibit all sounds
which had no reference to the duty laid
upon them, and it was found that
warders so hypnotized could perform
night duty for six months and work
hard all day without showing signs OF
fatigue. The results of these expert
ments were, it is said, uniformly sue
cessful, and no accident of any kind
occurred
In regard to this and other applica-
tions of hypnotism DIR. Bramwell refers
to the method of Wetterstrand, who,
instead of restricting himself to sug-
gestioQs made in the course of short
hypnotic trance, advocated the use OF
the curative effects of prolonged hyp-
motto sleep. etterstrand treated cpl
lepsy and grave forms of nervous dis
order by keeping the patients in the
hypnotic trance for three or four
weeks Without rousing them the pa
tients were fed at stated intervals,
and the actions of the bowels and blad-
der were regulated by suggestion, and
thus mental as well as physical rest
was given, in addition to such thera-
peutic advantages as might be gained
by aid of suggestion.
DIR. Milne Bramwell says that, al
though every one cannot be deeply
hypnotized, profound states are not
necessary for the successful employ
ment of suggestion, and the number of
persons insusceptible to some degree
of hypnotic influence is extremely
small Among other diseases he gives
the following as those in which hyp-
notism has given good results "Hy-
steria, neurasthenia, dipsomania, and
other drug habits, obsessions,
moral perversities and nervous tricks
in children" We may add that, as
far as the. treatment of dipsomania is
concerned, it seems not entirely i'm
possible that some of the startling re-
suits which are said to have been OBJ
tanned at certain institutions for the
treatment of this condition may have
been the outcome Of an unacknowl-
edged, but none the less effectual ap-
plication of hypnotic suggestion.-Lon-
don hospital.
