To speak of them respectfully as sur
vivals'' Is not necessarily to imply that they
have outiived their period for any great
length OF time seeing that the whole history
Of coaches Is comprised within little more
than the last three centuries. 1t might
perhaps DO supposed that the brilliant ar
ray of these ponderous vehicles which ex-
ercised such a magnetic attraction in the
Spanish capital would be of a distinctly
venerable age
This, however does not appear to be the
case. All of them are doubtless OF a more
or less Old World appearance. but the fash
as It does in less substantial things. It is
recorded that In 1881 the 1nfanta of Spain
rode In glass carriage In which only two
persons could sit. AS time went on these
dating. but the oldest of the six or eight
state coaches in the bridal procession dates
only from the year 1850.
Although the oldest OF these coaches
must be regarded as Historically modern,
all OF thsm viii certainly appear venerable
to modern eyes. It IL probable that nc
other court In Europe could make more
varied display. The custom OF riding IN
coaches at all was one of slow development
even among the higher ranks. and for the
state and professional services OF sover-
eigns 1t had to displace the two previous
methods OF progression. by water or on
horseback.
The court of every continental capital
whose situation permitted their use had It's
service OF state barges. while the most Inn
posing open-air functions OF medieval
Europe were, OF course performed on horse
back The close relations so long maintain
ed between our own court and the city led
to q frequent display OF pageRntry In which
the horse and his rider were paramount
Nor was the splendor shown By the citi-
xens of much less maEnincence than that
exhibited by the court.

Is Electricity the Life Fore eP

That the human body is an electric

strated by experiments made in San

lists, the other day. The method con-
sisted OF application of two platinu m
electrodes TO the inner lining of the
human stomach. which were by copper
wire connected with a telep and
the microphone sensitive instrument
which largely intensifies sound. With.
out any battery whatever, sounds were
rendered audible. The charge, as
measured by a Weston galvanoneter

volts. In a second test, after the sub.
jects had taken a brief rest and swal.
lowed drink of whisky, nearly double
the voltage was indicated.
The committee claim to have DEM
onstrated the law of action of the
human senses. They reason that if
sound is transmitted over a copper
wire when it is charged with human
electricity, it is reasonable to consider
the principle the came as when the
auditory nerve is charged with the
force. In other words We hear when
the auditory nerve is made sensitive
with human electricity in the same
manner by which we receive a tele.
phone message. Furthermore, these
scientists claim that "bya series of
experiments they have proven that
digestion is an electro. chemic process;
that all life action in the body is de.
pendent upon the activity OF the cleo
trical forces within the organism, that
variations of sense manifestation, as
sight, hearing, ETC., are caused by the
different rates Of vibration set up by
human electrical currents acting on
the special sense nerves."

The Crime Of 1909.

In October or thereab outs the Hon.
BUTIN MORAN will break all the mem
bers Of the Massachusetts, House of Rep
resentatives on his own wheels. That
caitiff band is trying TO deceive the
public by Stimulating wild wrath against
a Boston Representative. II has ex-
PEELED him for an alleged attempt to
bride three fellow members to vote
against the anti-bucket shop bill, since
the defeat of which True THOMAS LAW
son of Boston has never smiled and
very seldom advertised.
This expulsion will not mollify or miti-
gate Mr.. MORAN and his philanthropio
colleague, nor will it appease public
opinion. This same week the Massa-
chusetts House did an act of shame the
horror of which will be felt wherever
there are honest hearts. The Hon.
SIMON SwIG of Taunton, one Of the best
kno wn and the best beloved Of Bay
statesmen, was censured, or
mended for censure, for his "indiscre-
tion." Those who know SIMON SwIG
know that he is never indiscreet. Bunker
Hill Monument is not more reserved.
The Sacred Goldfish Is mo- more trust
worthy, self-contained and full Of de-
corum. Why has SIMON SwIG been
attacked? Why is that revered nam
banded about the world?
Because SIMON SwIG is the most dam
gerous candidate now in view. Because
SIMON SwIG is popular with the Drys
and with the Vets. Because the pro-
posed ticket Of LAWSON and MORAN has
already given way to SwIG and MORAN.
Because in the distant day when BUTIN
ceases t o butin and LAWSON ~lawsonizes
no more. the name of SIMON SwIG will
still be held in honor wherever there are
sons of the Pilgrims or of the Puritans,
wherever on this earth m has
carried the glories of New England and
its rum.
