Value of Psychical Research.

Why should not psychical investi-
cation lead to practical results, asks
Sir Oliver Lodge, F. r. S., in the
World To-Day. Are we satisfied with
the preaching of chaplains. That is
as civilized people content TO grow
perennial class of habitual criminals,
and to keep them in check only by de-
vices appropriate to savages; hunting
them, fogging them, locking them up,
exterminating them? 1t is unwise and
unscientific to leave prisoners merely
to the discipline of wardens and to
the preaching Of chaplains. That is
not the way TO attack disease of the
body polite. / have no full-blown
treatment to suggest, but I foresee
that there will be one in the future.
Society will not be content always TO
pursue these methods of barbarism;
the resources of civilization are not
really exhausted, though for cen
turtles they have appeared to be. The
criminal demands careful study on the
psychical side, and remedy or pallia-
ton will be a direct outcome of one
aspect of our researches. The influ-
ence of the unconscious or subliminal
self. the power Of suggestion, the in
Auence Of one mind over another, the
phenomena Of so-called possession
these are not academic or scientific
facts alone; they have a deep practi-
cal bearing, and sooner or later 1t
must be put to the proof.

Railroad to Mecca.
MICHIGAN.

Announcement has lately been made
chat the railway from Damascus to
Mecca will be completed as far as
Medina on September l, and that in
two years more the remaining 300
miles to Mecca will be ready for use.
This is one of the most remarkable
railroads in the world. Some, IL not
all, the money for it's construction has
been contributed by Mussulmans in
British India and In Africa, as well as
in Turkey, and it is regarded by them
as a religious enterprise. 1t is intend
ed to make easier the pilgrimage to
has not only led the faithful in various
parts of the world to contribute
money for the railroad, but, stranger
still, it has led the Turkish officials
and contractors engaged in the actual
work of construction to abstain from
their usual practices of dishonesty,
which in America are in a general
way called grating" The road runs
through a waterless desert for long
distances, and in these parts has not
cost, including rolling-stock, more
than $4,000 a mile. The best record
made in track-laying is two and three
quarter miles in day. Arrangements
are already making in Medina to cele-
brate the entrance of the new road
into the city. While it is a religious
enterprise to the Mussulmans, the rest
OF the world is aware that it has
great Political value to the Turkish
sultan, for it will make it easier for
him to control Arabia by sending
troops there quickly, and it will also
afford an easy route for dispatching
an army to the Egyptian frontier In
case he should think it desirable to
assist the Egyptians in any effort to
throw off British rule.

IT is pleasant to hear Of the bravery
and unselfishness of American sailors
even in time of peace, when they are
supposed to have little to do outside Of
routine duty. Rear Admiral Evans,
commander of the battleship fleet, re-
ports to the naval authorities at Wash
ington the highly commendable con-
duct of four seamen while at Punta
Arenas, Chile. This consisted of en-
tering, at great personal risk, boat
that was leaking badly and proceed
ing to the rescue of two midshipmen
who had been thrown into the water
by the capsizing of dingy and were
iI imminent danger of drowning. But
the Yankee sailor is always COOL
headed, resourceful and dependable.

A REIMBURSEMENT.

A Missouri man tells OF an Irishman
named Coughlin, who lived in shanty
standing in a field near the main
highway from Kansas City. The foun.
dations of the shanty were lower
than the road, through which ran a
big Waterman. AS the living floor
of the place was raised on posts to
make 1t level with the highway, it left
a large cellar underneath, where
Coughlin kept dozen hens.
One day the Waterman burst, food
ing the cellar and drowning the hens.
Whereupon Coughlin took steps to en-.
ter claim for damages against the
city. After much delay influential
friends succeeded in securing the
sum of $25 in settlement of Coughlin' s
claim.
I've got me money!" shouted the
Irishman to neighbor sitting on the
steps of the next shanty.
Its glad l am to hear thot," was
the reply. "And how much was it,
Coughlin?"
'Twinty-foive dollars"
And phwat are We goin' to do with
