A CURIOSITY OF LUNACY.
Periodicity of Mania by Which the
Patient Lives Three Lives

Periodicity of Mania by Which the
Patient Lives Three Lives.
There is a special form of mental dis
ease, first described in France. whose
definite character is given to it by its
periodicity, and hence it is called folie-
circulaire. In it there are three sections
Of the mental circle that the patient
moves in--viz, elevation, depression
and sanity-and in this round he
spends his life, passing out of one into
the other. for 1T is, when fully estab-
lished, a very incurable disease.
The patient takes an attack of mania,
during which he is joyous, restless,
troublesome, extravagant and often
vicious. He eats voraciously, sleeps
little and never seems to tire. His
temperature is degree or 80 above
the normal, his eye is bright and glis-
tening, he is enamored of the other sex.
he shows diminished self control and
no common sense.
This lasts for a few weeks, or few
months more commonly and then he
passes sometimes gradually and some
times rather suddenly into a condition
of depression, during which he is slug
gish, dull, looking differently, dressing
differently, eating differently, fearful,
unreliant and sedentary in habits.
This state will last a few weeks or
months, and the patient will brighten
up into what seems recovery and Is to
ell intents and purposes in his normal
state. This again lasts for a few
"eeks or months, and he gradually
gets morbidly elevated. You find he is
passing through every minute mental
phase and habit he did at first. De-
preston follows as before, and then
sanity, and this round of three states
of feeling. of intellect, of volition and
of nutrition. goes on, circle after circle,
till the patient dies. He lives three

ACQUISITION FOR

MINORITY STOCKS OF ROAD.

The recent announcement that ar
engagements are being made for meet
ing in Cincinnati of the holders OF the
100000 bonds of the Dayton, Leb
anon and Cincinnati railroad, one Of
the Appleyard properties, for the pur
pose of considering a proposition te
refinance the property, brings out a
story that there also is a deal on for
the disposition Of the property to the
Pennsylvania.
The Dayton, Lebanon and Cincinnati
now covers thirty miles from Dayton
to Lebanon. At the latter point con-
nection is made with the Cincinnati
Lebanon and Northern, which is own
ey by the Pennsylvania system. Ru-
mors are current that the Pennsylva-
MIA will now acquire the road, and
thus provide itself with a short line to
Dayton in competition with the Gin
cinnati, Hamilton and Dayton and Big
Four routes.
Local parties in interest would not
discuss the matter yesterday beyond
to admit that there are negotiations
that promise to realize for the prop
erty everything that was contemplate
ed by Appleyard when he acquired it.
and more.
The acquisition of this property is
said to be but part of an extensive
plan of the Pennsylvania and that a
portion of the proposed $100.000,000
bond issue by that company is to be
used for the purpose Of this road and
for Improvement and equipment that
will put it on a par with other proper
ties of the system.
The Pennsylvania is now engaged
in acquiring the minority stocks OF
leased lines in sufficient amount to
give the company absolute control on
a basis of exchange that will leave the
Pennsylvania a larger annual revenue
than will be required to meet the divi-
dend payments on it's own stock given
in exchange.
At the present the Allegheny Val
ley. Philadelphia and Erie, Cumber-
land Valley and Bald Eagle Valley.
with an aggregate main line length of
788 miles, are being thus brought into
the system. When all the outstand-
ing stock of these roads, or at least
the legally required portion OF each,
has been brought in the properties
themselves will be merged with the
Pennsylvania.
It is said that this policy, so far
in the East, will be extend
ed to lines west of Pittsburg, and
may ultimately include the Little Mi
ami.

Of experience that when a lawyer has
