UNIQUE TESTS ON
THE EYELESS FISH

Monteiair Man Who Wrote Odd Book
Argues That Finny Specimens ex-
plain Faculty Of clairvoyanee-As
Tells Of Wonderful Power Of DRAMA.
Says He Lived Twice Before.
Eyeless fish from the Mammoth cave,
in Kentucky. we're dissected by Harry
Trippett. town clerk of Montclair. at
q meeting Of the Montclair board OF
health. attended BY several doctors.
Mr.. Trippett arranged the meeting to
demonstrate to scoffers his belief In
the existence Of second sight" rs ad-
vanced in his book. 1.-The Door With
out Knob" the publication Of which
has caused a stir in Montclair. In it
Mr.. Trippett recorded his belief Of his
existence on this earth at two periods
previous to his present life.
The pituitary gland. Mr.. Trtppett
said recently. Is responsible for the
existence of sixth sense in some peo-
pie. which he believes exists more or
less in every human being. In every
animal having eyes there is small
gland situated at the point where the
nerves from the two eyes cross one
another. Some persons. according to
Mr. Trippett. have unusually large pi-
tuitary glands. and to these indi viduals.
he says. Is given the power Of second
sight," which Is called clalrvoyance by
some.
Describes EyeIess Fish.
Mr.. Trippett says that the eyeless
fish Of the Mammoth cave have this
pituitary gland In highly developed
form. Through the United States gov
eminent. after much difficulty, he Oh
tanned two Of these eyeless fish and
dissected them to confirm his belief
that the large pituitary body of the
fish WINS responsible for their powers
Of perception under physical handicap.
he dissected the brains Of the fish and
found that. as he expected. the pitui-
tary gland was highly developed.
Apparently. he says. these eyeless
fish. through the power of the large
pituitary body in their brains. are en-
dUleu " see WllnOul Tue Oo0ui opliSeA
orgnns.
Among specific instances Of second
sight that Mir. Trippett attributes to
the presence Of Il highly developed
pituitary gland is that which involved
the late Judge Wilgerard and his wife
Of Montclair. Judge Wilgerard re-
ceived q box Of cigars from a young
man named William Maxwell. The
gift had no marks to indicate where II
had come from except the young mans
name Maxwell's family were very
eager to 6nd him. as he had been alb
sent from home for several years. Mrs
Wilgerard took the box In her hand
and. concentrating her mind on the OBJ
ject. experienced vision which show
ed her that Maxwell had married and
was living on plantation In Virginia.
Afterward. when Maxwell was CON-
uunicated with. he said that his en-
vironment as described by Mrs. VII.
gerard mt the moment Of her vision
was the same in every detail - it
actually existed.

istences and his hanging for murder

Marie Louise Elizabeth Vigee-Le-
brun was born in Paris, in 1855, and
when only 10 years old had estab-
lished herself as a portrait painter.
When she was p years old she mar
rled Lebrun. a painter and picture
dealer. much older than Marie. a man
who was little worthy of the gifted
and beautiful young woman who has
made his name famous
Madame Lebrun had her studio in
the large house in Paris where her
husband had his showroom, and it
was here that crowds of aristocratic
visitors and sitters came to see the
charming young artist. Among those
who came to have her paint their
portraits was the kings brother,
known at the time as Monsieur"
Monsieur used to delight in sing
ing as he sat for his portrait-in a
voice that even Madame Lebrun was
later forced to admit was decidedly
out of tune.
How do you think l sing.
madame" monsieur asked the artist
one day.
Like a prince, monsiegneur!" said
Lebrun graciously, and monsieur was
