Circuit charged with Human Electricity

Before number of medical men
asscmbicd at San Francisco, two
doctors charged an electrical circuit
with human electricity to such a
degree that external sound waves
we're transmitted and heard through
an ordinary telephone receiver. A
San Francisco dispatch to the Dem
yer News says: The experiment
consisted of the application of two
platinum electrodes to the walls of
the stomach lining. BY means of
copper wires the electrodes were
connected with a telephone and
microphonc, a sensitive instrument
which greatly intensified sound.
There was absolutely no mechanic
al or chemical battery in the cir
cult, yet the moment the electrodes
were swallowed sufficiently to touch
the walls of the stomach, human
electricity. flowed over the wires,
rendering sounds audible. The
electric charge measured from seven
to eight millivolts on a weston gall
Colonel E. p. Richard
son, the subject of the experiment,
swallowed the electrodes and sue
ceedcd in retaining them for a con-
siderable time. After a rest he
was given a drink of whiskey and
again connected the electrodes
with the lining of his stomach,
the galvonometer registered fifteen
The doctors claim that
by this experiment they have dem
onstrated the law of the human
senses. They reason that if sound
is transmitted over copper wire
when it is charged with human
it is reasonable to con-
slider the principle the same When
the auditory nerves are charged
Mountain Home maverick. [volume] (Mountain Home, Idaho) 1906-1911, 1907-01-10

With the same force. In other
words, we hear when the auditory
nerve is made sensitive with HUI
man electricity, on the same prin-
ciple that we receive a telephone
message. Furthermore, these scien-
fists claim that by a series of exper-
iments they have proved that Giges-
ton is an electro-chemic process
that all life action in the body is
dependent upon the activity of the
electrical forces within the organ
ism, the variations of sense mani
festation, as sight, hearing, etc.
are caused by the different rates OF
vibrations set up by the human
electrical currents, acting on the
special sense nerves. -
