But the Mexican Consul General is
satisfied that not only has important
new material been secured through
the visit Of Countess de OWES and
her party to Sing Sing, but that
criminology and psychic investiga-
ton have been linked closer by the
tests adduced. A complete report Of

That mental analysis of crime
and criminals is more and more ac-
ceptable to courts and juries is a
fact that cannot be denied. The
present international issue, with
Agustin L. Sanchez and Henry
Garcia in Sing Sing Prison and the
Mexican government using every
means for safeguarding the inter-
ests of the condemned men, may be
the opening up Of an entirely new
procedure where crime is Of a cir
culnstantial nature and new evi-
dence is obtainable through the kind
of psychoanalysis that Countess de
OWES claims to have it in her power
to apply.
Countess de OWES explains her
method as the science of reading

life by means Of lines, depressions

~ OLANDE was writing at her
N little desk under her. little

Chinese pieces, her little Dresden
cats and her little Japanese dolls
around her. Everything in the room
was diminutive. One might have said
that in furnishing her sanctum she
had tried to bring it into harmony
with her own character, which was
still CONSTRUCTED and childish.
She was writing to her husband,
who had been away for several
weeks:
Don't hurry back, my dear Rene.
Take all the time you need to give to
your affairs. I am doing very we'll,
and the days will not seem too long,
thanks to the little distractions
which enIiven them"
She had hardly finished the letter
when the door opened and Rene ap-
peared. He seemed nervous and pre-
occupied.

"The SOUL" she answered, "can be
located scientifically. In reality, it
is small globule, the size of a small
filbert or large pea. movable like
gelatin. It is composed Of fire
ether and enters at birth a certain
gland. 1t attaches itself to this
gland. In the disease known az
aphasia it may lose consciousness
and moves nearer the brain. Some
day it may recover its house"
Whatever other scientists may have
to say in contradiction Of this inter
probation of what the soul really is,
it is nevertheless decidedly inter
esting theory.
New-York tribune., 1921-01-23
The Study of Lines

"By psychic resume of tempera-
ment," she asserts, land also by en-
vironment, conclusions are reached
that almost invariably are correct.
For instance, person who frowns
develops lines between the eyebrows
unlike those produced by purely stu
dious thought, and in like manner
the lines in the nand produced by
nervousness differ in every respect
from those resulting from pleasant
or sad thoughts. This psychological
science is the work of a lifetime.
The student must devote all his en-
ergy to drawing comparisons and re-
cording failures; for we can learn
only by experience, and failures and
disappointments are, after all, the
best educators.
"There are some hands that speak
to us the moment we look at them.
Where is the one who at some time
in his or her life has not come
across man or a woman for whom,
when extending the hand to be sha-
ken, there has not been felt de-
cided disgust? The reason for this
is that we live in a field Of luminous
light which is capable of being
photographed, and from the hand of
this zone or aura this light emanates
with greater force than from any
other part of the body. The truly
initiated can do more toward know
ing the character, and certain events
in persons life, by the jnterpreta-
ton of colors belonging to this
zone"
"How did you come to enter this
work?' was asked.
"The question is one that needs
some ampliica tion," she replied.
ITO begin with, thirty-three years
ago, after Heron-Allen's advent in
this country, I became interested in

down, and during a social affair one

on the lounge and put her arms about
his neck.
'Is it really true that you want to
go away? | think that you are only
submitting me to test. People don't

here"
"Can it be that you were con-
tented with this narrow kind of hap
piness?"
Would you offer me some other
kind?" she asked.
He took her on his knees and
kissed her hair.
"You are little girl, very little
girl. One must grow and expand to
enjoy life. When we come back you
will see that was right and you will

She made no answer, but looked
sad and troubled.

Two children were killed on April
II last, and by the first week in
August the pack had accounted for
over forty women and children in
British territory alone. The wolves
were also operating with effecs
across the boundary of Rewah State.
whence statistics are not available.
Hunting experience suggests that
in years Of severe famine wolf,
driven by hunger, attacks a man
Gregarious as wolves are, the vice
communicates itself to the whole
pack, and the wolf becomes terror
more terrible" than even the tiger
or the panther. The wolves move in
pairs, and, unlike the tiger, they
are consMnmate stalkers.
The hunters in this case, four in
number, went to one of the villages
near where the wolves were active
and, arranging a trap with goats,
killed one Of the beasts.
The next evening four more goats
were tied up, and though all of them
were killed only one wolf turned up
before the guns at the beat arranged
the following morning and wac
killed. Finding the wolves in and
around Bhuj were becoming ex-
tremely wary and stalking was diff
cult, Sallu then proceeded to a vii
lage few miles further east. Here
one Of his men had an experience
which he is not likely to forget. It
happened as follows: As usual, the
men were out stalking in the mosn-
ing, and the man referred to, hav-
ing espied pair coming in his di-
rection, quickly hid himself behind q
tree and waited, with joyful heart
(for there was a reward Of so
rupees for every wolff, for them to
come within gun range. The wolves
were about hundred yards or SO
from the man when he heard a twig
swapping behind him, and, looking
around, saw to his utter disnaay an
other pair in the act of springinc
upon him. The stalker was himself
stalked. Whether it was through
sheer terror or sudden Inspiration.
the man leveled his gun and blazed
both barrels. The gun must have
tilted, for the wolves were not fatally
hit. Though blood was found, their
bodies were not recovered, IN spite
of hours of search. The next day
Sallu, while out stalking, shot one
dead and wounded another. The
men knocked about the place for a
few days, but shot no more, and as
the news of kills had ceased they re-
turned to Katni and submitted theia.
report.
AS is usual in these cases, the VII
layers superstition and ignorance
were largely responsible for their
predicament. They considered the
killing Of wolves q miraculous feat
as to them wolves are bhcots, which
are bullet and shot pyoof.

"runs between the first and second

tations along the life line, showing
weak kidneys. The thin pointed
chin, the two, head lines stopping
short on Mars, the short thumb-all
this indicates that this man received
brain shock, causing decided
unbalancing. The thumb, further,
has a flat base, with wrinkles, and
shows that he could not plan or
intend murder"
Countess de OWES laid special
stress on the signature Of Garcia
the separation between the letters
proving, she said, that the convolu-
tlons Of his brain are broken, pre-
venting him from connecting the
letters mentally.
1.-The sum and substance of the
test" she concluded, referring to
Garcia, 'is that he is not criminal
by birth; that he has sustained a
severe mental shock. The conser-
vative head line is an indication
that he does not practice lying. 1t
seems to me that his is a case for
sympathy and charitable apprecia-
ton Of the various factors in
volved."
The Case of Sanchez
Next turning to consideration
of Sanchez's status, Countess de
OWES said:
''This man appears to be very
practical, emotional, fond of fam
lily life. He is generous and
kind and has little love for money.
His practicability is shown by his
forehead, which is straight and
knotted. The lobes Of his ears be-
ing very thick, his emotionalism is
patent, and while he would be easily
affected by occasional drinking
the one cheekbone standing higher
than the other-yet he could not
become an habitual drunkard. His
generosity is proved by the open
fingers, and by the same token we
find small desire for money. The
back Of his head is full; an indi-
cation of love of animals.
"Sanchez might get into trouble
through drinking. But he has not
one mark of the criminal. He Ger
tainly could not commit murder pre-
meditatedly. The texture of his
skin, in fact, shows refinement by

ancestry. Notice how fine the print
is. If wronged, no doubt he could
be violent, and if his dignity should
be offended his loneliness might
cause him to act on the spur of
the moment. In this way only could
he commit crime. His head being
high and sloping downward at the
back, here are all the marks that
show the characteristics of the SOL
dier doing his duty in battle. But
as his thumb is fiat, the murder in
stinct is entirely absent.
II should say that in his case there
is some missing link in the evidence
that brought about conviction. He
has not the rope and loop picture
so generally found in the hand of the
murd rer type"
Both in the case of Sanchez and Of
Garcia Countess de OWES told them
things about themselves that fairly
startled the convicted men. Being
able to speak to them in their own
tongue, she succeeded in getting be-
meath the surface and bringing from
their hiding place subconscious
thoughts that the two Mexicans
themselves hardly knew were there.
A Report to Mexico
All that Countess de OWES diseov-
cred in her lengthy examinations of
the two Mexicans naturally could not
be divulged by her, for that would
defeat part of the purpose of the
tests, the result Of which is to be
embodied in her final estimate of
what she found deep down in the
recesses Of their minds, and as re-
vealed to this psychological Grim

leaders of the World Zionist congress

The disagreement arose over a resolu-

Zionists should be compelled to live up
in every respect to the Jewish Law.
The unorthodox members of the Left
made determined effort to defeat the
resolution and succeeded. by a small
majority, in having it tabled. There
