NEW YORK DOCTOR SAYS HE
CAN PHOTOGRAPH ONES
THOUGHTS.
HAS MADE DEMONSTRATION
Which Shows He Can Get the Mega,
E tive Of Things From Mental
Impressions.

Y Rochester, N. Y, Feb. a.-That it
is possible to photograph brain waves
Or mental impressions has been dem
onstrated by DIR. M. A. Veeder. of
Lyons, N. Y, who announces the sue
cess of very unusual experiment.
For many years DR.. Veeder has
been experimenting with forms of
sensitiveness that are not yet fully
developed in the humap species, and
this evening number Of people were
invited by him to photograph gal
lery to participate in an interesting
experiment intended to demonstrate
the possibility of affecting very SEN
sitive Photographic plate by purely
mental process. Those present were
tested with reference to the possess
sion Of special sensitiveness which
has been found to be present in
greater or less degree in many per-
sons.
1t was found that slle of those who
assisted in the experiment were ca
pable Of exercising powers tina are
ordinarily latent. u ibis having been
shown, a new plate from a package,
which had not been opened before,
was put in the holder and laid on the
table, the wooden shutter being clos
ed s.e'' IL
Each person placed one hand about
four inches above the plate, with the
other hand under the plte and table.
After an exposure in this position Of
about one miutes, the plate was tia
ken into the dark room and develop
ed, whereupon it was found that q
spot hand formed about the size iof .
silver dollar, which as matter aof
fact was the form of the object
which the persons participating in
the experiment had in mind at the
same time. @aaf4r aea
The precaution was such that there
was no escape from the conclusion
that the figure printed on the plate
emanated from the minds of those in
terested. It demonstrated the fact
that persons in a certain state of
sensitiveness Of mind which has
been fully identified, are able to pro-
duce an impression on "a rapid photo
graphic plate without direct contact.
1t seems to be an emanation from
the brain and nerves, somewhat Of
the nature of the X-ray, inasmuch as
it was capable Of passing through the
wooden plate covering. The expert
ment, Dr. Veeder stated, cannot be
performed by sheer effort of the will,
without the peculiar sensitiveness Of
the mind, evidence of which was Sc
cured in the case of the five persons
participating in this experiment.
/, Detailed explanations of the pro-
cess would be too technical for popu-
lar description, but the bare fact that
brain waves, or something of that
sort, are capable of producing photo
graphic effects is not unreasonable
and is of remarkable interest in
many ways.
Whether the mind can project it.
self outward, on the principle of
wireless telegraphy, considerable dis
tances, remains to be seen. The ex-
pertinent would indicate that it is
among the possibilities.
