science worthy of the name.

The experiments were cairied on at Angern. where Dr. Blnet-Sangle had. two subjects of the proper nervous suscepiiUntty. It rwas bis habit to make one hypnotize the other. The first three experiments were made the same day. The receiving subject. Mme. M.. is a woman easily hyonotlzed. She was put to bleep by the transmitting subject. M. O.. who was not himself hypnotized. Tlj > doom was large and the doctor stood beside M. O.. at a distance from Mme. M. of 16 feet The eye* of Mme. M. were carefully Covered, with a cloth, although the possibility of seeing would have scarcely aided her to guess what

was wanted.

On this day It was the experimenter's aim to transmit sensations from one subject to the other. Dr. BlnetSangle began with the sense of taste. He placed on the tongue of M. O. a paper soaked in postaaslc bioxalate. Mme. M., at the othe'* end of the room, made a movement of the mouth and exclaimed: “It bites—It's bad!" The same result was obtained with bromide of ammonium; she spat out. saying. "It's salty!" The doctor put soap on the tongue of M. O.. Mma. M. answered instandy. "It's insipid—like

starch."

Next came the transmission of visual sensations. Mme. M., still In the hypnotic sleep, was seated at a. table, and the doctor and M. O. took the same relative positions and distance as before. One of the assistants stuck a paper knife at random into a book

was not pronounced, nor was It shown to the transmitting subject. M. O., but only to Dr. Binet-Sangle. The latter then draw on a piece of paper tbe head and neck only of a vulture, showed It to O. and asked him to transmit the sensation of what he saw to Mme. M. After a few seconds Mme. M. said: "It's a bird—it’s an odd bird; It has no wings;" and then. "It's a vulture." Another ^experiment was made with tne word “snaU." It was the kind called "limace" in French, and only the drawing was shown to O. Mme. M. said. ''It's a liman de' " (the name of a fish like a aole). and then, catching herself up. described it. "It creeps. It's slimy—oh, it's a'ynall!" Here the hypnotised subject bad evidently received, two sensations—one. Imperfect, of the word "Umace.” which some one (probably the doctor) was articulating mentally; the other of the drawing, which It was Intended to transmit through M. O. A third experiment. equally perplexing, yet positive in its result, was made wiGi the word “cross." Dr. Blnet-Sangle. drew a cross on a piece of paper, which he showed to M. O. Madame M., blindfolded and J6 feet away, immediately drew two crosses, neither of which had^tbe form drawn by the doctor. Now came the more difficult experiments with words mentally articulated by M. O. A book was opened as before and a line of poetry by Theophlle Gauthier was shown to O.. with the request that he would read it mentally. Madame M. made Only hesitating attempts to repeat it. 0. asked tbe doctor to read mentally at the same time with himself. The lino "Souffie. btse. Tom be a Hots, plule." (Blow, north wind. Fall in torrents, ralh.) At last Madame M. managed to aay "souffle" and then “blae;" but she could get no further. Another' trial was made with the'line: "Ike TMeu ne vlendra pas. L'egllse est renversee." (God will not «We- The church Is overthrown.! Mme. M. pnmodiced the two words "Le Dieu' and tffen. all together, "lof Dleu ne vlrndiVpas' —but could go.no further. . In all these experiments It is difficult not to condo de that the thought of. the experimenter. Dr. Slnot-Blnet-Sangle. was trsasiagted along,with that of M. O. ...

ICE ON THE MOON.

Laaar ObMrvatlaa *•- ceaitr Mads. Any ooe who happened to torn a telescope upon the moon early on the evening of Aug. 1J cannot have failed to observe a very rare lunar phenomenon and one which is of especial interest from Its bearing upon Professor W. H. Pickering's recently pubUshed views as to the existence of snow snd ice on the moon's surface. The moon

what is popularly known aa the moon's "ragged edge" was . slightly convex. Just outside this line, which separates the moon's illuminated ft am its unilluminated half, appeared, as usual, a number of detached lalets, caused by the Illumination of the summits of mountains while their bases are still Involved In darkness. The phenomenon referred to was the remarkable appearance of one .of these "Islets." Instead of the usual white rpot was to be seen a star—Just such a r.ar as is produced by the reflection of the sun from a glass hall or othei polished convex surface. The highest power of the teiaatcope used by a local observer fallqd to make out of this object anything but a star, which was

Genuine meteorites are curiosities highly prized by museums and scientific collectors. Prof. St. Meunipr. of the Natural History Museum of Berlin.- says the Scientific American paid as ntuch as IS per gramme for a me too rite. It Is. therefore, conceivable that sharp practices should be re sorHd to by dealers in scientific cn•rioalties. A bknJ of faetfeorite'counterfeiters was recently captured and considerable evidence obtained of very curious, and Ingenious methods for seducing the gullible collector. The members of this band ware Corsicans. It was their practice to obtain natural rock resembling meteorites as closely as possible and then to barn them In

order lo produce the black crust which ! poinu^'hive bccn 'scouring Salem a one 'of the earmarks of every gen- county trying !
