HYPNOSIS
is Employed in All British Hos
pitaIs in Treatment OF
Wounded Soldiers.

LONDON. Aug. Practically every
British hospital for soldiers now has
on its stan one or more physicians
trained in administering hypnotic
treatment. According to the medical
of the Daily Mall, the
results obtained have in many cases
been little short Of miraculous.
The chief nse of hypnotism has been
In cases Of shell shock where, in adj
dition to any actual wounding, the
patient is suffering from q pro-
nounced REORGANIZATION OF the ner-
|vous system. This may take the form t
Of complete or partial blindness loss
Of hearing or speech, paralysis, mel
ancholfa, or less of memory.
The treatment consists of hypnotts-
ing the patient and while he is in the
hypnotic state the operator coaxes
him to exercise those senses and
functions which previously had been
lost or quiescent. Then the lost sight
OF memory is gradually awakened in
the unhypnotized state. and, accord
ing to the Mail's correspondent,
|complete cure Is almost always
merely question of time.

New Rule to Make
Little Change in
Local Print Shops

Adoption OF the "six-day week" law
by the convention Of the international
Typographical union IN Los Angeles will
make little or no difference in working
conditions among the typographers OF
Omaha, according to members OF the
local union
The rule that no man snail work more
than six days in a week has been In
force in typographical unions In this
country for more than twenty-five
years" said ong union man. Under this
rule each man holding a position on
Geven-dsy paper like the morning issue
of The Bee has worked six lays and

a regular substitute will be hired to
work six days a week, substituting regu-
iariy for one man each day. Under the
present system n regular man can get
off any day simply by calling on his
substitute TO take his place.
Thus It simply amounts to a regular
man having to take the same day off
each week instead Of getting off when
ever he likes.

COAL PRICES WILL

However Soft Coal Men Say that if
There is a Rise in Rate Con-
sumer Must Pay.
BUT NO REDUCTION IF CUT

No coal dealer or railroad freight
traffic man in Omaha cares to ex-
press an opinion on what effect the
recent decision OF the Interstate Com
merce commission will have upon the
future price OF coal during the COM
ing winter. The reason Is due to the
fact that the text OF the decision has
not been received and consequently
traffic men and dealers are up In the
air as to what the decision means.

Mississippi river. the railroads we're

This amounts to about 10 cents per ton
and the opinion Of the railroad and coal
men. not officially expressed. is that this
advance In the rate should add corre-
spondlngly TO the price that the consumer
win have 10 pay.
Omaha and Omaha territory takes the
bulk Of its soft coal from the mines
west OF the Mississippi and consequently
the advanced rate will apply to most Of
the soft coal handled on the Omaha
market.
Hard Coal the same.

decision has made cut in the rate on

ceived here indicate what the cut is. II

Well. after Elbert Potter, presi-

hired George Green's band to play at

George Green had accepted the en-

went up to the musicians headquar-
tors and registered the date.
There Mr. Green was informed that Il
was impossible for his band TO play in
Iclmwood park. where the picnic Is TO be
held, inasmuch as that and the other
city parks have been declared unfair
by the union musicians because Park
Commissioner IIummel has hired non
union bands TO play in the parks. y
So Mr.. Green, being a loyal union man.
wrote polite letter to Potter, expressing
his regrets. "Am sorry. Would like to
play for you. and appreciate your kind
ness In offering me the engagement"
said the epistie.
Mr.. Potter called Green by telephone
and pointed out the fact that according
to this ruling union bands will not be
able TO play in the Auditorium from
hsnceforth, that building having been ac-
quIred by the city and being a probable
place Of nonunion band music.

Then Mr. Potter went out and hired an
