SEE NOW WITH
NOSE AND HEAR
WITH YOUR HAND
Substitution of One Sense for
Another Is Now Practicable
Through Tests, Is Claim

CHICAGO. March 10. = Omitted
res s.SSubstitution OF one sense for
another to the extent of clearing
with finger tips and seeing with
h nose has proven practicable
through tests made by professor Rob
ert II. Gault. noted physiologic and
criminologist of Northwestern uni
versity.
Announcement of results Of months
OF painstaking experiments through
which students mastered the power
to hear" with their finger and 'see'
with their noses was made tonight
by Professor Gault.
1.-TWO young men both = entirely
normal, have now reached n stage
where n speaking from a point
three rooms away, communicates
with the other through a speaking
tube. the receiver having his hand in
a sound proof box at the mouth of
h tube" Professor Gault stated. ITO
eliminate any possibility of the re-
ceiver hearing with his cars. a motor
and a metronome are set goingsdurlng
the experiments.
THEY have now approached the
fO@hA~ FAAtAt NAACAt btAllGAACN1 tdII III
communicated and understood through
h nerves in the hand without aid
from other organs.
"These W normal men have de
voted only about one ha'f hour each
day to the experiment and II is en-
tirely probable that a person totally
deaf but normal mentally could be
taught to hear through his fingers
within a short time.
Experiments in hearing through
fingers were started by Professor
Gault after obtaining some success in
color perfection test through the
nose.
"One woman subject with normal
sight has been able 10 difrerentiate
between colors but we have not pro.
crossed as far with these experiments
as with substitution of nerves in the
fingers for normal hearing organs.
said Professor Gau,t.
Our theory Is that each coloring
pigment gives out a different color
which may be perceived by the nose.
THE sense of smell has apparently
decreased with mans civilization. II
can be stimulated. For instance. a
dog sees with his nose to a far
greater ertent than with his eyes
The outstanding fact I o me resulting
from these experiments is not so
much that the blind may partly over
come their sightless nose and the
deaf their inability to hear. but that
the human system can overcome any
obstacle"

LEAPS FROM
AUTO;M MAKES
GOODESCAPE

Toad" Mcfarland. who made a
sensational escape from a car in
which he vas being brought under
arrest from Salt Creek. about ZOO
o'clock last evening. was stiI at
liberty at an cary hour this morn.
ing.
Mcfarland vas wanted in Ne.
braska on a charge of burglary
and was being brought to Casper
to be held pending tho arrival of
an officer with extradltion papers.
Les Snow. deputy at Salt Crek,
was in the rear Of the car with
Mcfarland seated in front next
TO the driver. AS the car slowed
down near the postoffice McFar-
land leaped out and mixed in with
the crowd. Snow jumped out after
him but lost sight of the man. The
deputy fired in the air, the shot
attracting a still larger crowd
which hindered the possible cap.
ture of the man.
When last seen Mcfarland Is
reported to have been hurrying in
an easterly direction. indicating.
possibly. that he was hustllnr
back to Nebraska to give himself
up TO the authorities. 1t was
thought by some spectators, who
estimated his speed at from 40 to
40 miles per hour. that he con,
sidered the course of justice too
slow.
