The Senate yesterday amended
the bill relating to the government
of asylums so that they are to be
supported by the State as now in
stead of requiring each county to
pay its own insane. The bill is
amended and ordered to the third
reading only changes the existing
law by having five directors for
both asylums instead of nine for
each.
The amending of this bill is a
breaking up of the entire scheme
proposed for maintaining the
State institutions.
The bill relating to the deaf
and blind school was taken up yes
terday and Cornwell moved to
amend by striking out the clause
requiring counties to pay for the

to do it.
Prof. Hess paper aroused an in
terest in the teachers, and put ev-
eryone to thinking.
DR.. Swartz, being asked for his
opinion on this subject, said his
study had been Of material things
Che being a chemist), and, there
fore he had learned to detest
Psychology. He said he knew
nothing about it, and believed less
he was a doubling Thomas on
the subject.
A discussion followed in which
Miss Garlic, w. F. Clark and COun-
ty Superintendent darlington par
ticipated.
After dinner DR.. Swartz dis
cussed the subject Of oil, it's for
nation, utilities and refinement.
Over 1O0,OOO,00O barrels are pro-
duced annually in the United
States, of which California pro-
duced 24,OOO,OO0, Ohio 20,SO0,-
900, Texas nearly 100000, etc.
He said there were various theor-
les as TO it's formation, State GeOl-
ogist Whites theory being that oil
was due to marine animal life be-
ing covered up under the earth.
DR.. Swartz advocated Prof.
Henri Moissan's theory that there
were The component elements or
substances in the earth which,
when water comes in contact with
it, produces oil and gas. That wa
ter passed down through the earth
taking these substances down to
these impervious crusts and by a
chemical action making oil. He
named several things made out OF
the oleaginous fluid, such as gas
cline, benzine, coal oil, naptha,
olive oil, axle grease, chewing
gum. tar, coal, etc. He answered
several questions propounded by
Messrs. Clark, Snodgrass and
VanCamp.

one, an denjoyed by most all pres

Wednesdays exercises began
with a discussion of methods of
teaching history, by Prof. P. Y.
Debolt. He gave quite a lengthy
talk on the subject, and although
some disagreed with him his meth
cd was not wholly bad! A verifi-
cation of the saying that a method
of instruction successful in the
hands of one teacher may be a
failure in the hands Of another.
His talk was interesting and COM
manded the attention of the teach
ers.
Next Prof. NJ. f. Hess read a pa
per on "Psychic Phenomena"
which provoked quite dicussion
and lively times in the institute,
much to the satisfaction Of the av-
erage teacher, who feels that the
institute is a public nuisance, any
way. Prof. Hess prefaced his re-
marks by saying that many may
not agree with what he was 60
ing to say, but that, in the mind
of the speaker, the wheels go
round. He said: Ten or twelve
years ago Thos. j. Hudson of
Washington, d. c., published a
book entitled "The Law Of
Psychic Phenomena" what others
called "The Divine Pedigree of
Man." and by others the "Evolu-
ton of the Soul" Hudson assert
ed that we have two minds, each
capable of Independent action, an
objective and a subjective mind.
The objective mind was mans
guide in the outside world. The
mind perceives by intu-
ition that intelligence which
makes itself manifest in that sub
ject under hypnotic influence.
Subjective mind is the divine
part of man, the human soul. If
the hypnotized person is told that
he is in the presence OF angels
he at once feels that he is in di-
vine presence. In this case the OBJ
iective mind is dethroned-and
the subjective mind is an influence
and power. The subjective mind
never sleeps; it may force the OBJ
iective mind to act at some fu-
ture time. He illustrated this
declaration by an actual occur
renee in this city. A physician
had a daughter who was continu-
ally biting her finger nails. The
doctor entered her bedroom after
she had gone to sleep and sit upon
the bedside and told her she
would not bite her finger nails the
next day, suggesting to the sub
iective mind the desired condi-
ton. He kept this up for some
time. until he noticed her gradu-
ally quitting the obnoxious prac-
tice. A cure was effected entire

RECALL OTHER DAYS,
Old Settlers OF Racine and KenOsha
County, Gather at Union Grove for
Their Annual Reunion.
CONGRESSMAN CO0PERA SPEAKER.

Hundreds of the pioneer residents
OF Kenosha and Kenosha county went
to Union Grove this morning to at
tend the annual reunion of the Old
Settlers of Racine county, which is
being held there this afternoon. The
crowd was one of the largest in the
history of the Racine Association and
it is claimed that fully three thousand
people were in attendance. Nearly
all of the officers of the Kenosha Old
Settlers Club were present and they
were shown every honor.
The morning hours were given over
to a reunion of the pioneers and the
Kenosha and Racine pioneers gath
cred at the pavilion and told many
interesting stories of the days when
Wisconsin was new.
The address of the day was de1iv-
cred by Hon. H. A. Cooper, of Ra-
cine, who spoke of thework that had
been done by the pioneers of Racine
and Kenosha counties to build up the
great Commonwealth of Wisconsin.
Other addresses were delivered by
Thomas M Kearney and Mayor Peter
B. Nelson, of Racine. Many of the
old settlers in the audience were
called upon to make impromptu
speeches. During the day the Score
tary of the Kenosha Old Settler
Club extended an invitation to the
Racine pioneers to attend the reunion
of the Kenosha Club which will. be
held at Paddock's Lake the last
Thursday in August.

Iudqe BeIden Hands Down a Decision
Declaring Deeds to Ryan Prop
erty as Fraudulent.
CREDITORS MAY GET PROPERTY.
Lots Alleged to Have Been Sold to Peter
GALES are Turned Back to the Orig
inal Owners by the Court.

Judge E. B. Be1den, of the Circuit
Court handed down a decision last
night in the suit of ]. G. Flint & Co.
VS.. Ryan Bros, of this city, in which
he declared two deeds given by the
Ryan, Brothers to property in Keno
sha assGfraudu1ent and ordered the
property conveyed to the Ryan estate.
This property will probably in time
be turned over to creditors of the firm
to settle debts and judgments claimed
against it.
The property in question was a two
ninths interest in the Ryan estate.
Fors some time, creditors of the
Ryan Brothers have been assai1ing
them in the courts and a number of
judgments had been filed against
them. Some time ago, just before
the Sling of Judgment for $500, it
was alleged by the creditors that the
two brothers had sold their interest
in the estate for the purpose of pre-
venting the creditors from 1evying on
it. Thesproperty, consisting of three
lots, was transferred by the brothers
to Ernest Lindy, of Spring Valley,
and deed was properly placed on
record. Indy failed to hold the prop
erty, but for a consideration of $500
the property was transferred to Peter
Gales, the we'll known sa1oonkeeper.
Judgments continued to be filed
against the Ryan firm and finally the
creditors began suit to have the deeds
for the property set aside on the
ground that the conveyances had
been made for the sole purpose Of pre-
venting the creditors from realizing
on their claims. The matter has been
before court commissioners on several
occasions and it finally came up for a
decision in the Circuit court.
The property in question is valued
at about 81, 900 and it is said that the
property is sufficient to satisfy ali the
claims that have been filed against
the firm.
The attorneys for the firm and for
Gales will probably contest the de-
cision of the judge and it is more
than probable that the case will be
taken to the Supreme court.

Officers of The Chicago Brass Com
pany Come From the East to
Look Over KenOsha Plant.
OLD PLANS MAY BE FULFILLED.
Kenosha Plant Is Planned as the Western
Supply House for the Great Eastern
Firms improvements Necessary

Charles E. BROKER, of Torrington,
Conn, president of the Chicago Brass
company; A. P. Hine, of Ansonia,
Conn.,, Vice President, and Charles
Conner, of Waterbury, Conn, were
IN kenosha Thursday to make their
annual visit to the big plant of the
company in this city, and they re-
turned to Chicago this morning to at
tend meeting of the Board of Direc-
tors OF the company to be held at the
Chicago Office this afternoon. In
honor of this annual visit of the lead
ing officials dinner to the depart
ment chiefs was given at the Hotel
Eiche1man Thursday night.
The visit to the plant was a very
satisfactory one, and the officials
found that it was enjoying one of the
most successful years in it's history.
Since the Kenosha plant was sold to
the Coe Brass company it has as
sumed a commanding place among
the brass making plants in the West,
and 1t is probable that the directors
CT IAA~AA A4OOl4nS LII 111IOdSO lOOdy
will make plans for extensive i'm
provements in the Kenosha industry.
AT the time of the purchase of the
plant it was the intention of the Eas-
tern company to make Kenosha the
supply house for the Western trade,
and this plan is about to be carried
out. Such an arrangement will mean
much for Kenosha, as it will render it
necessary to enlarge the present
plant and offer new facilities for sup
plying the trade. It will, of course,
mean large increase in the number
of men employed at the plant. Dur
ing the last few years the East has
been rapidly taking the lead in the
works at Kenosha, and men from the
East who have had long training in
the brass business are now in charge
of nearly all the important depart
ments of the Kenosha plant.
Nearly all of the old men who came
with the plant to this city years ago
have been supp1anted by men who
grew up in the service of the Torring-
ton company. Scarcely any remain
who were brought here by the late
Thomas M. Avery.
This change of the workmen has
done much for the plant, as it has
made possible the introduction Of
more modern methods. The business
of the plant is increasing SO fast that
the management already sees the
necessity of charging and improving
the plant to handle the business.

The Negro in Massachusetts,

The Massachusetts Bureau OF Labor
Statistics has recently Issued report
dealing with the social and Industrial
condition of the negro In that Com
monwealth. The report goes back to the
time when negro slavery began in Massa-
chusetts in 1857, and shows that tho
practice of buying, owning and selling
slaves was kept up for many years; and
even as late as 1888 The Supreme Court
of the State left 1t an open question
whether or not slavery had been abolish
ed. Even Daniel Webster had not been
able up to the tins Of his death 10 de-
termine the question as 10 when and
under what circumstances slavery ceased
atoexist in Massachusetts,; and as late as
1881 the sentiment against the negro was
SO marked that the Legislature Of that
year was alarmed by "the increase of'n
species OF population which threatened
to become both Injurious and burden
