resentation, tho taking a distinct stand
against a constitutional government. OF

element into the situation. Most OF the
mobiles are landed pro prietors, who have
become greatly alarmed by the peasant
movement which is threatening property
in the country, and they will undoubted-

Of lawlessness. = p. -. Il
Must Cooperate with Gear.
The mobiles urge that the time has
come for cooperation with the govern
ment for mutual self-protection, point
ing out that the strikes in the cities,
by sending thousands Of workmen filled
with revolutionary ideas back to their
villages besides Introducing political
ideas among the peasants, only increases
the latter IS demands for land:
In many districts the landlords are
organizing guards to protect their prop
erty at their own expense, the troops
which the government is able to: send
being Insufficient. -. J..
Peasants Continue to Pillage.
Rowing bands of peasants continue to
pillage, burn and murder ip the Cherni-
gov government and in Tamboff. Ka-
Zan and other governments in the south.
The few troops here and there are pow
erless. The whole peasant population is
affected more or less. The parish priests,
under instructions from the holy synod.
are doing all possible to quiet the peas
ants, but without making any apprecia-
BILE impression. With warm weather a
crisis will come, especially if it is &C.

TN A TRANCE
Man in Honolulu Claims to Be
Victim Of Experiment of
49, !
!" Hypnotist.. 4:

Honolulu, y. March 2s.-Dr. Walter
Hoffman of this city was consulted the
other day, bYsa middle3aged man, who
said his name was David Charters. and
that he had just awakened from seven
years. trance He told the doctor the
following yarn:- "; r
My name is David Charters, and seven
kyears ago a doctor in San Francisco who
was practicing hypnotism persuaded me
to allow him to use me as a subject.
foolishly acquiesced, being hard up at
the time, and DESTROYS of earning a little
money. and from time to time was prac-
ticed on as a medium. The doctor rap
idly became expert In the hypnotic art
and I made an ideal medium. One day
he put me under the influence Of his
power, and went to sleep. Then a ter
riole thing happened. T was : never
awakened. What became of the doctor
I do not know. Whether sudden death
prevented him from restoring me to my
normal condition or whether he purposely
failed to break the spell for the purpose
of conducting a frightful scientific, ex-
pertinent have no means whatever of
knowing. Perhaps he has been watching
my progress and noting 1t during the
world in a trance. 49, &C.,.
I have not been altogether asleep, but
have been waking and sleeping, to put it
that way. Still I knew and felt that I
was asleep all the time. My memory of
events previous to seven years ago en-
tirely failed me. Yet T transacted bust
ness and married twice and raised two
families in my hypnotic state. In fact
lived, walked and had my being in a
trance. r.
I came to Honolulu early in February
cfn OF fJ,n Col 10 1,n1 nyon
day I met DR.. Hahns Brooks, II e
netic healer. He told me IWas asleep,
and after working on me for three OF four
days succeeded in rousingS me from my
| lethargy. My memory has BEEN. COM
pletely restored to me and I feel d new
man and called on you ITO ascertain if,
in your opinion, the cure will be perma :

After hearing the man s story and
being somewhat impressed with it, DR..
Hoffman told Charters that if he would
call in the afternoon and, bring a friend
with him, he would make an examina
ton. The sleeper failed to put in an
appearance at the stipulated time, how
ever, and today DR.. Hoffman is puzzling
over the strangest case or the biggest
faker he has met with in his profes-
siOna1 career. = :, :, : = =
Since visiting DR.. Hoffman, Charters
has taken his departure for the. main main
land, leaving the mystery of his alleged
trance unsolved.

SPEECH RECLAIMED !
s.. AFTER 20 YEARS.
Simplest Of Cures Occupying Less
Than Two Weeks, Restores
This Girls Voice.

r.. New York, March 29.-Unable to
speak above an unintelligib1e whisper
for twenty years., Miss Mabel Penny
of 10 West One Hundred and Third
street, has, by cure remarkably for
it's simplicity, entirely regained her
powers Of speech. The cure consisted
of nothing more than the persistent en-
deavor to sing and laugh. ...-...~
At the age of 6 Miss Penny, as a
result Of scarlet fever, lost her voice.
Many physicians and throat specialists
who were consulted told her that her
vocal muscles were. atrophied, and the
girl became <reconci1ed to life Of 81
lence. During her subsequent years at
school in Brooklyn all her Rotations
had to be conducted in writing. Know
ing that her speechlessness would prove
great handicap, she later learned
stenography, and for ten years she en-
deavored to pass her time in business
pursuits. .
Two weeks ago, wishing to have her
life insure, Miss Penny went to the
offices of one of the local companies
and was referred to it's physician, DR..
Richard Ellis. for examination. DR.. Ell
lis, at first thinking that the girl was
suffering from a cold, learned of her
long silence and became interested in
the case. ,. -, 49,

cords were in perfect condition; that
there was no sign of aphonia, and that
the cords were simply dormant from
lack of exercise. 80 ,
49, esJust practice the scales every day
and laugh lot,'' he advised her, F1and
you will be well in two weeks . -
Greatly encouraged, Miss Penny daily
took. long walks in Central park, near
her home, all the while trying to sing
and laugh. Improvements was rapid
and sure, and day before yesterday her
voice was wholly restored.
She is now able to, speak clearly in
any register she chooses, and with no
effort At first her efforts to sing the
scales resulted only in inarticulate CUR
gles,, which, however, soon gave way
to clear tones.
Mrs. Banta, the girl mother, last
night confirmed the ~ details of her
daughter s recovery of her. long lost
voice and stated her wonderment at
the remarkable simplicity Of the cure.
Miss Penny, tho happy at her recovery;
was loath to discuss the matter.
DR.. Ellis seeks no credit for himself
for. efecting the cure, altho he admits
it is one Of the most remarkable in
stances in medical annals, especially as
the girl, in possession Of perfect vo-
cal apparatus, was kept silent for SO
many years merely because vocal exer.
else had not been advised for her.
