colonial policy showed a card with
the word Philistines on it, it was read
Philippines, and a card With the word
courage was read college because the
professor showed it during a talk on
colleges.
These scientific experiments have
real value as a warning against
accepting uncorroborated evidence.
They also serve to show the burden
which is thrown upon jury when
witnesses give contradictory evidence
The contradiction does not necessa-
rily mean that the witnesses are con-
sciously lying. There may be an
honest difference of opinion as to
facts, when all the witnesses had an
equal opportunity to know the truth,
but unequal powers of observation.
1t is difficult task for any one man
TO determine which witnesses to be-
lieve, and one merit of the jury sys-
TEN, in so many respects cumbersome
and ANTICIPATED, is that the verdict of
one or seven gives a higher proba-
bility of general average of cor
rectness.
The experiments also suggest to
each individual the importance OF
training his own powers of observa-
ton lest he unwittingly give false
evidence. a man must not trust ,'iis
own senses until he has tested and
trained them.

THE VALUE OF EVIDENCE.

In one of the August magazines
Mr.. Howells tells humorously of his
search for a package which he re-
membered to have lost on street
car. In spite of little details which
rendered to have lost on a street
he remembered circumstantially and
which proved to him that the package
must have been taken by fellow
passenger, it appeared afterward that
he had left the package at florists
shop and had never had it on the
street car. In the September maya
zines two university professors, one
of Harvard and one of Geneva, give
the results of Investigations among
their students as to the value of their
evidence. The reports concur in
showing that the percentage of error
as to details was greater than the
percentage of truth. In one case the
percentage of error in regard to the
essential fact was more than so.
Out of fifty-four students questioned
in regard to a certain window which
they passed every day forty-four de-
MED its existence and none could
describe it.
The widest discrepancy existed in
the testimony of different observers.
The movement of a hand revolving
on a dial was given by some as equal
to the movement of snail and COM
pared by Others to the speed of an
express train. The full moon was
said to appear as the same size as
pea at arms length (the correct

and was put out after a scuffle only
few of the students could after

In the case of printed words it was
proved that the reading was infiu
enced by the ideas in the students
minds at the time. Thus, when the

Robert Hichen's new story of the
desert, ''Barbary Sheep" which diff
fers in so many respects from his re-
cent novels, most of all from THE

scribed as grand opera of the Meyer
