INSISTS THAT BLIND CAN SEE
Image to He Impressed Upon the
Brain without the Aid of
the Eye.

Copyright. 1903 by Press Publishing Coz
LONDON, March 7.-(New York World
Cablegram-Special Telegram. )-Oculists
here and in Paris make light of DR.. Caze's
article printed in the Paris Revue dcs
Revues under the caption "And the Blind
Shall See."
DR.. Gaze asserts that Prof. Peter Stiens
Of Paris, who claims to have discovered a
method of imparting vision independent Of
the eyes, took him (Caze) into a dark room
to test the invention. First Stiens band
aged his eyes so he could see nothing. Then
he adjusted some sort Of apparatus around
the temples, and instantly DR.. Gaze saw
dimly surrounding objects. BY and by he
could count the fingers Of his hand held up
before him and tell the number Of chairs
in the room. Just as DR.. Gaze was feeling
that he was about to see clearly, Prof.
Stiens suddenly removed the apparatus and
DR.. Gaze was in total darkness again.
Prof. Stiens has theory that a man sees
not with the eyes, but with the brain, and
that If an image can be transmitted to the
brain without the help of the eyes blind
man can see as well as anyone else. The
professors apparatus is said to transmit
light in the same way the telephone trans
mits sound.

Departing Word TO His
Sister.

you will never see me again alive You
will find my body in the river"
The above message is causing the rela-
tives of James Mareck much anxiety and
has resulted in the police being asked to
assist in locating him. Mrs Rosa Mareck,
mother of the missing man, came to Omaha
from Crete, Jeb., yesterday to await some
word from her son.
Several weeks ago Mareck. who is II
years of age, left his home IN Crete and
went to South Omaha to reside with a
married sister at 122 North Twenty second
street while he continued in employment
which was given him. Last TIL sday he
disappeared from home. The only word
from him since was the message which
he mailed to his sister rom Omaha, in
forming her that he would be found in the
river and which he signed The Boy in
Blue" The relatives, thinking that he had
perhaps enlisted at the recruiting station
made inquiry there, but the young man had
not called.
Mrs. Mareck is almost distracted over the
disappearance of her son and eagerly
awaits some news which will apprise heI
that he is not dead, as his message indi-
Gated. No reason can be assigned for
Mareok's sIdden departure.
He is described as weighing about Ia
pounds, FIVE feet seven inches in height

the London Zoo for his American menagRr-
ies has been a topic Of earnest and excited
comment in the newspapers this week Bos-
took will not tell what price he paid but
says he would not part with lingo for $780,

cized for selling the animal, which is
great favorite with the London children,
but the public is consofed with the report
that the elephants carrying capacity Ia
poor and the king will present the Zoo with
much better elephant. Bostock has had
several offers for lingo, one amounting to
81 900 a week TO exhibit the huge creature
in cities in England, but he declined them
all and shipped lingo on the steamship
Georgia from Liverpool yesterday for New
York. A special cage had to be constructed
for the railway journey from here to Liver
pool. Great crowds witnessed the de-
parture Of the elephant.
Jingo weighs six tons. He is eighteen
inches taller than Jumbo was, but has not
so we'll shaped a body, being thinner. He
Is 20 years old and perfectly docile.

BERLIN, March 7,--(New York World
Cablegram-special Telegiam.) )-German ac-
tors and actresses in this leading theaters,
both in Berlin and in The provinces, are
raging at the low salaries they are receiv-
ing and a general strike is feared.
There are only twenty theaters in Ger
many where the very first ranks of players
receive from 50 900 to $3.50 year, and only
four actors and one actress received the
latter amount. In the large provincial
cities there are hrst-class singers who do
not receive more than $1,750. One splendid
tenor who sings in several different operas
had only 81 500, and he must supply his own
costumes. Another well known basso who
sings in eight Wagner operas has only
81. 300.
Even in the royal opera houses the state
OF affairs is no better. rigid moral CEN
sorship is exercised in the royal theaters.
The kaiser knows all his leading people
personally and they must conduct them
selves to his entire satisfaction. The play
ers ask for an advance all round Of 10 per
cent.

is NOT A CURE
German Medical Authority Discusses
the Question of Its
Uses.

Copyright 1903 by Press Publishing Coz
BERLIN, March 7.--(New York World
Cablegram-Special Telegram Prof. Men
dell, whose criticism Of hypnotism as a
curative agent has attracted so much at
tention, said to a World correspondent to-
day:
1T is necessary to distinguish between
the application Of hypnotism in the cure OF
disease and its use for removing certain
symptoms OF a disease 1t cannot be ac-
cepted that hypnotism is in a position to
cure diseases which are the results OF or
ganic disturbances. Even those physicians
who regard hypnotsm as specially effective
do not claim this unless they are tinctured
with quackery or fanatcism. Inflammation
Of the lungs. for example, or cancer, can
not be cured by hypnotism.
But II is contended that serious central
nervous diseases-for example epilepsy
can be cured by hypnotism. This is the
contention Of Bernheim, Becillon, Barwise,
and particularly of Hellerstrand.
"One of my most famous colleagues made
a series Of experiments on this point which
were altogether negative in the result, and
Forel and Lowenfeld are both of one mind.
They agree with me that physicians who
maintain that epilepsy can be cured by
nosis of their patients and that they have
been treating cases of disease which are
quite durable ty ordihary means Func-
tional diseases Of the mind are shut to
hypnotism, and it is absurd to talk of sue
cess in this region.
"As regards hypnotism employed in a
sympathetic way, l have something, but not
much, to say for It, Suggestion is known
| to all physicians and employed by them al
| In a variety of ways, in modern as in times
| gone by. By certain words. by the employ
ment of perfectly neutral medicines, as
! bread pills and salt water, by the applica-
! tion OF magnets and other wonder working
means, symptoms have often been removed
| Besides the personality OF the suggestor
/ the surroundings and a variety of Other
! things must all be considered.
"These symptoms are usually removed
| temporarily, sometimes, however, perma
nently, but that the disease itself is cured
is very doubtful, and personally ] do no
| believe that the disease itself is removed
| thereby.
"The success Of hypnotism depends on tn,
| ignorance of the public to a large extent
AS soon as it is regarded as nothing yer!
wonderful It is divested Of nine-tenths o
it's Importance.
"Hypnotism in the hands Of unskillfu
persons is a most dangerous thing. In al
cases 1t should be carried out by careful
physicians. II not the disease may be in
tensifed and the most serious mental com
plications arise. Laymen should never at
tempt It. They cannot know how far to &c
they cannot judge o: the results Of thei
work.
"As a means in medicine 1t is CROWN
less in repute and is being used less
Physicians of repute are using 1t only 4
the very rarest cases. AS therapeutic
advance 1t will fall altogether into disus'
II has no future"
