GOOD IN MOVING PICTURES"
Philadelphia Physician Uses Them for
the instruction Of the Students
Under Him.

In Philadelphia moving pictures are
now being used to record actions and
expressions in cases of nervous dis
eases. DIR. T. H. Weisenburg, a we'll
known neurologist of that city, Is
quoted in the Philadelphia Inquirer as
saying that no development in recent
years has been of so much value as
the use of moving pictures in medical
teaching. The usual method pursued
by this physician is to first lecture on
his topic, which may be epilepsy, and
then to show a reel containing speci-
mems of the different types. The film
actually portrays man having a fit.
The physician maintains that the
moving picture is the only way of
keeping a permanent record of symp-
toms in rare cases, thus providing the
only record which can be sent from
place to place and reproduced hun
dreds of times with the same effect as
though the original extremely rare
case was being viewed.
The pictures also furnish in the
case of a certain kind of epileptic
spasm, where a movement is extreme
ly swift, a means of diagnosis, be-
cause, the operator can slow up the
machine, lessening the speed Of the
film and thus allowing recognition of
the movements in their slow form that
was hard when they were encountered
at the original speed.

SAYS CAPITAL is HEARTLESS
Revolution Liable to Come Any Day
Hibernians Are Told by Or.
Kelly,

Sydney.-Dr. Kelly. the Roman Cath
Ollie primate of Australia. addressing
the Hibernian society here, referred
to the recent strikes and the threats
of strikes and said:
"The contentious and strife between
capital and labor may develop into a
revolution any day. because capital is
heartless and renders labor desperate,
and because labor is emboldened by
the success attending violence. So
ciety with US is in very parlous
and dangerous condition"
4 DR.. Kelly added that man must
not put his hand into another mans
pocket unless he is starving and his
tongue is hanging out with thirst.
Then he may take from another man
pocket"

SHIP KILLS SEA MONSTER
Captain Reports Striking What He
Thinks Was Species Of Whale,
Which Hung on Stem Of Vessel.

New York.--Recently persons on
liner were sure they had seen sea
serpent fifty feet long forging Its way
through the ocean at incredible speed.
Capt. ]. Tut OF another liner. gave
this account of q collision with
monster Of the deep:
AT 1888 o'clock in the morning.
said the captain. IAN hour known as
the graveyard watch by marines,
shock was felt at the fore part OF the
ship. The liner had left Santa Marta
on the day before, and was steaming
at sixteen knots an hour along the
Colombian coast toward Port Limon
After the shock the ships speed
seemed to diminish, although the en-
gines we're working well and the sea
was smooth. II was bright moonlight
went to the bow to see what was
the matter, and found that we had
struck a sea monster, which ! esti-
mated to be some forty-two feet long
and three tons in weight. The col
lision killed the monster. and 1t hung
on the stem so that we had TO go
astern to get clear Of the body This

of the sea bright crimson"
The captain said that the body had
broad stripes on the back and head.
with patches like textile prints the
size of hand on the sides. II was
a species of whale now almost ex-
tinct. he thought. The shock aroused
the passengers. who came on deck to
look at the dead monster. One of the
officers said that many strange ser
penis and large fish had been seen
in the waters off the Colombian coast
in the last three years OF a species
that had not been seen there since
the days OF the buccaneers on the
Spanish Main. They thought that the
blasting in the Panama canal had
disturbed them in their submarine
caverns and driven them to the sur

Peanut as a "civIIlzer.v

The peanut seems to be playing the
part of "civilizer" in some OF the colo
NAL districts of Africa. Traders give
negro bushel of nuts for seed ON
condition that he returns four bushels
from his crop, and since the yield in
good years is twenty fold, the black
man generally has a surplus that he
can sell at the rate of a shilling a
bushel From a single station in
Senegambia there were shipped in one
year 10000 tons. Small boys and sci
entists have long been in agreement
as to the value of the peanut; now
statesmen also Will have to do it
honor, since it seems likely to lead
the native African into the paths OF
agriculture,

Lack Of Faith,

There is no greater unbelief thah'
dependency" says Muller That at
titude OF mind can be easily traced to
lack of faith. The Bible somewhere
says rejoicing in hope" II mentions
It as one of the Christian virtues
Some people go about with frown or
scowl on their faces in order possibly
to appear as a. standing protest
against the sin OF the world But It
works the other way. There is moth
ing that tickles the devil so much as
to have Christian looking mad: for
then he knows he has him wounded
and in the hospital There is man
in this town who has fight on his
hands all the time. He is kicked and!
pelted and cuffed about constantly.
but he always carries CHEEKY smile
and speaks in a hopeful voice He
seems to have the twelfth chapter OF
Romans tackled away in his heart. ex-
haling a fragrance every hour OF the

into the night, the days, even the
hours tailed off. Finally, liberty.
The first move Of the wretched con-
vict was to visit the town where his
life had been blighted. He learned
that Ellis Wood had been abroad for
five years, a confirmed invalid, and his
father and sister had removed to some
other town. Then dispirited. almost
purposeless wandering, and now Ran
dial Thorne, a shivering outcast, fronted
the wild night storm.
He knocked at the door of a small
humble cottage and asked for meal,
but first the work to pay for it. Its
mistress told tale of sickness and
restitution that fairly shamed his own
solitary condition.
The wanderer battled the elements
anew until he felt that he should
succumb If he did not soon reach shell
ter and food. He turned in desperate
ly at the gate of a somewhat preten-
tious house. Necessity, the urgings of
his sufferings, inspired him momen-
tarily with certain reckless audacity.
He rang the door bell. A tall fair
woman about his own age responded
to the summons.

stranger in a strange place. ! have

am bewildered, stunned, unable to find
my way back into the world that has
forgotten me since five years ago.
Five years!" came in strange
gasp from the woman's lips. Her
eyes seemed filled with a sudden
dread. an indefinable emotion. What
is your name?"

She reeled But that she caught at
the door she must have fallen. Her
face had turned marble, she seemed
to shrink within herself. Then with
a nightly effort she opend wide the
door.
Come in she said. "Oh, the pity
of it! You are Randall Thorne? am

friend"

"Yes," was the reply, every word
uttered as If 1t were an effort. MY
brother died in Italy, where he has
been helpless invalid since-since
the time of your trouble. My father
died year ago. For a few days be
fore his death my brother was ration
al. He sent a last message to me re-
garding you. Mr.. Thorne. 1t was to

crossed the intense pallor of her face.
1T was to direct me to take from my
fathers estate two sums, one to cover
the bank defalcation. and $4,000 for
yourself as token of his undying
friendship to you.'
When Randall Thorne left the home

When he planned the next day to go
to some far country where his dis
grace was not known, somehow he
could not. Always the pitiful, sorrow

bereavement and lonliness between

wonderment Laura led him into the

since so strange guest. Il have

She sat with hands folded and down
cast eyes. She trembled, and once
more the gloom of nameless dread
seemed to rush her soul.

continued Thorne. ITO me, after my
terrible experience, 1t is cold, harsh,
unreal. The generous gift of your

grown unconsciously pleading, his
utterance had the ring of earnestness
and intesity.

cruelty wronged you. Oh, hero, martyr
that you are, must tell you all or my
heart will break. 1t was for the crime
of my brother that you suffered so
nobly, SO unjustly. 1t was not until
after the death of my father that
learned how well he had kept thu
wicked, dreadful secret"
But Ellis! cried Thorne, his face
illumined-"my poor sacrifice gave
him five years of rest, of safety, If not
of happiness? Thank God-I am con-

led him to an act he never realized.
Oh, it is sweet, sweet to know that

EVEN AS A BROTHER.
She Dared Not Refuse a Refuge
in Nobility Of a Loyal
Soul.

The man was cold, but there seem
ed to be no warmth nor shelter for
him. His soul crayed compassion. a
friendly word No one offered it. He
was hungry and weak. Through we'll
lit windows there showed tables
grooming with the rich roast, the
steaming urn, the tasteful delicacies,
and bright, happy faces. The refuse
viands were tossed TO the dogs, but
none to the gaunt, thinly clad sup
plicant whom these very ami
mails drove away into the biting blast
with savage attacks.
There was black shadow upon this
forlorn beings face as upon his
soul. The prison blight told in the
unnatural pallor, the shrinking mien,
the panied eyes. This man had been
suddenly, mysteriously snatched from
work, position and contentment, with
little or no explanation. He had just
ended five years penal servitude. The
awful change to dreary solitude, a
slaye-chained existence, the conscious
ness OF utter helplessness had broken
his spirit and stunned him.
No news from the outside world
had reached him during his convict
life. He recalled his last day of lib
erty-teller in a country bank. He
remembered hideous charge Of en-
bezzlement, the case railroaded
through. He has sent for his closest
friend, the cashier of the bank, Ellis
