The principal feature of the session of the Na- tional eleetric light association convention at Niagara Falls yesterday was the discussion of electrical executions. Ferdinand A. Wyman submitted a paper on the constitutionality of execution by electricity. It was a compilation of many laws bearing upon the question of cruel punishment. The author maintained that the attempt to put to death by electricity is cruel, and said that the man does not live who can tell how much electricity it takes to kill a human being. “I have ly,” he said, “conversed with a man who took a 2,500 volt shock and he is alive and well.” In closing he said he had aimed to show that junishment by electricity is so cruel that a ture ought not to adopt it—so cruel that the legislature of New York ought to re their law, and so cruel that the courts of New York ought to pronounce the statute unconsti- tutional. Dr. Otto A. Moses of New York city, who spoke next, had no paper pi but e extemporaneously, his was volum- inous with statistics, scientific facts and stir- ring appeals to the association te unite in an effort to discountenance this horrible use of a most valued friend as a public executioner. Dr. Moses claimed that instead of being pain- less and merciful, death by electriicty was a most dreadful punishment, one which was for- tunately not known to the ish inquisition. He before him hun of letters from nearly all the electrie light stations in the United States in reply to inquiries about the accidents which had happened in them from heavy currents, both continous and alternat In nearly all cases where the shock bas not proved fatal it was declared that the sensations was terrific. While most of the who were injured soon recoved from te they nearly all unite in declaring the pain of the shock was agonizing in the ex- One most remarkable fact, hownver, was de- veloped from this mass of statistics—viz., that scarcely any two accidents seemed to be ac- companied by the same sensations, They were variously described as like com m of the chest in a vise, a oan like wire, being hammered to death, being stuck full of needles, bemg cut through ‘with a buzz saw, being See from a height and being shaken to death. The conclusion drawn by Dr. Moses from comparison of his statistics are that there is no certainty whatever in death i from heavy currents; that they are invariably ac- companied by the most terrible pains and that in the majority of cases consciousness remains until the human body is separated from the circuit. g Mr. Bourke Dr. Moses concluded by praisin; Cockran for his disinterested efforts in the Kemmler case and then offered a resolution call- img upon Gcv. Hill to use his influence for the repeal of the obnoxious law which now stains the statute book of New York, as follows: “Whereas the law req the execution of criminals by electricity, enacted by the general the state of New York, was enacted association do hereby respectful tition the general assembly of the state of New York to repeal said law at ite next session. 2 That in view of the doubtful expediency of said law and the Petition for ite repeal the governor of the State of New York or © pardoni: suthority be ccunmate’ the set tences of all minals condemned to be exe- cuted by electricity e to imprisonment for hfe — law be re & That a copy of governor of the state of New York or other Lan Fran ow pce the chairman of the comm) on state municipal legislation y to each member of the general as- state of New York at its next ses- Z i i i Ff & FROM ANTIQUE SCONSET.

The New York Herald says : It has just leaked out that Dr. Lindon, who was secretary te the Aronsons at the Casino, had betrayed his trust. The discovery was made during the absence of Manager Rudolph Aronson that funds had been misappropriated. Mr. Albert Aronson promptly took matters in hand, and as a consequence a partial restitution was made. The amount of money involved in the case is reported to have been $6,000 or €8,000. Mr. Aronson last night said that not one-third of that had been taken, and it was all made good. Mrs, Linden came to the rescue of her husband and at considerable sacrifice made up the deficiency in his accounts. Before going to the Casino Linden kept a brokers’ office on Cedar street. He las always borne an excellent repu- tat is spoken of as s man of unusual The reason assigned for this misstep was association with a fast set and personal ex- travagances Ly pe hat his income justified, It was reported by theatrical people that the exact sum embezzled was $6,200, and that Mr. Aronson compromised the matter for $2,500 rather than prosecute Linden. in which case _ would have to produce his books in court His Ruse to Dodge the Devil.

The following scores were made in the lawn g 3 a a, SLEEP-WALKING. An Englishman’s Discussion of an Al- Ways Interesting Subject. ‘The extent to which the cerebral organs are awake daring sleep, says a writer in All the Year Round, has been the subject of much discus- sion. In perfect sleep the theory is that all the organs are in a state of quiesence; but how is it in the case of dream, and still more in the case of somnambulism, which includes not only walking but talking, thinking, and doing while in a state of sleep? Dr. Macnish’s theory of somnambulism is Shas it 19 dreaming of se forcible » nature as te stimulate into one or more of the organs of the senses. Thus, to dream vividly, and with excited energy of walking, arouses the muscles of locomotion, s0 that the person naturally gets up and walks, To dream that we hear or see produce so vivid @ cerebral impression as to stimulate the are connected, until we do see fevts and ear sounda jat ae wake. if the muscles only are excited, walk. If the organs of sight also excited, then we walk, and and probably talk as well. The senses of smell, taste and touch may further be stimulated into activity di sleep;and condition of mind is the result which so like perfect wakeful- ness as to be in reality a SECOND CONSCIOUSNESS OB A DOUBLE LIFE, Sleep-walking is often hereditary, but is | Farm and Dairy Men, more common among women and children than among men. And sleep-walkers do not always see, although they usually have their eyes open. Most of us have probably met with cases of this simple kind, in which only the muscles of locomotion are in play while ail the senses are dormant, and a iy 4 number of persons have experienceed the thing themselves, Verv different in degree, however, is the somnambulism in such cases as that of the En- lish clergyman who used to rive in his sleep, ight & candle, write a sermon, correct it with interlineat and then go to bed again, awaking in morning without any recol- lection of his midnight performance, Or like that of the miller noticed by Dr. Gali who was in the habit of rising every night an going through his usual work at the mill with- out any remembrance of it in the meaning. Or like the farmer mentioned by Dr. Pritchard, who rose, dressed hii , eaddled his horse, and rode to the market in a state of somnolence, Or like Mr. Blacklock, who on one occasion, after retiring early from the family circle, arose and returned to the room, joined in the conversation, sang a song and went to bed again, not only without any after-recollection, but also without any of the company having suspected that he was asleep all the time. Or like the boy who dreamed that he got out of bed, scaled an enormous precipice, captured an eagle’s nest and placed it under the bed, all of which he found in the morning that he had actually done, and been seen to do—the precipice be- ing one he would not have Fronds to climb in his waking moments, Sleep-walking may be caused by several things; such asa heavy meal, a bad digestion, @ hervous, overwrought temperament or gen- eral irritability of the system, But there are many cases in which it is impossible to ascribe # cause; and there is alsoa somnambulism which es by artificial means, which we may EITHER MESMERISM OR MAGNETISX. The German scientific theory is that from the standpoint of every psychical being, nature is divided into two halves—the one acting upon consciousness, the other not; that sleep is ac- companied by an inner waking; that it is not a mere negation of waking, but contains also “positive sides,” Thus. it is argued, the pro- cesses which come to the inner consciousness in sleep take place also in waking, but only re- main unconscious. Sleep does not produce new influences on the organism and new reac- tions, but simply raises those which were sub- ordinate during waking. It introduces new in- fluences and modes of reaction to consciousness and the result isa m.. Dr. Du Prel, who has devoted much attention bd ke 4 sub; raggenag oes deals prong CA age length in his *halosophie lystik, says that somnambulism induces susceptibility to finer influences than are received by the senses of the waking person, and that, as senses in waking evoke faculties the more remarkable the more finely they are fod rig so must the sense educed in somnambulism, receiving influences too fine for the day senses, release faculties superior to those of the waking man. So much evidence has been gathered of the remarkable character of somnambulic faculties that many physicians have tpg oeegeeoe de- clared somnambulism to be a higher condition than that of waking life. Others, however, are just as confident in regarding it ase falling ik into the instinct life of Dr. Du Prel maintains that the truth lies midway between these extremes. Somnambu- lism is the influence of nature and man in pres- sence of a passive state, and, therefore, it is not a state of equal dignity with waking. But, on the other hand, faculties are often revealed in somnambulism, which, even if only transitory, are 60 shperior to those of or: man as to DISPROVE THE MERE INSTINCT THEORY, Somnambulism has been called exalted sleep, andthe philosophy of sleep has been by no means exhausted, even by Dr. Macnish. We all know by experience the recuperative quality of sleep, and we have, most of us, observed howa prolonged sleep is often the turning point in a case of critical illness. But whatcan we make of the apparently well-authenticated instances of phenomenal sleeps which are re- corded in many scientific works? Schubert, for instance, tells of a boy who slept for sixteen weeks, and, when he awoke, both the disease from which he suffered and the desire for more sleep had departed. He also quotes a case of sleep for four years, or iy po with but short waking intervals, Another German doctor re- cords the case of an old priest, at Stettin, who, one Christmas day, felt need of a little rest after the first mass and Soret asleep in his cell for thirteen weeks, In Mayo’s “Truth in i pad Superstitions” there is mention of a girl known to the author, who, at twelve years old, fell into a a lasted thirteen years, during which grew from a child to a mature woman, We offer no opinion aa these phenomena; we only quote them on the authority of scie: tists by way of illustrating what a very remark- able thing sleep is and how much we have yet to learn tributes. Somnambulism has often been called a dis- ease, but Du Prel maintains that it is not so. It rather heals the disease—either directly through its deep es or indirectly from the fact that, while in sleep, somnambulists are often capable of self-prescription. Mesmer’s theory was that such severe diseases of the nervous system as catalepsy, epilepsy @nd so on are really “‘an incomplete somnambulism,” which can be cured by the application of arti- ficially-induced sompambulism—that is by mesmerism.
