The New Haven Register is commit- ting no error when it makes objection in these times to our free jury sys- tem. It utters an acceptable truth in the hands of the jury for final de- cision, they are let free and are liable to be subjected to influences which may affect their conclusions, although they are unaware of the intent of those talking within their hearing. “There is no law,” The Register con- tinues, “forbldding men to discuss the case under trial in the near presence of jurymen whom they can deny knowing to be such. “There are, In fact ,many reasons why it is against public policy to free a jury, after the decision of the case has been placed in their hands, until they have rendered a verdict. It should be the policy of the state to confine them and care for them at the state’s expense until the decision has been reached and reported. It will be necessary, as we understand it, to ob- tain legislative consent to this prac- tice, but that should be speedily forth- coming when the principle involved is entiment will find general en- Gorsement from the people; as well as have the approval of a large per cent. cf the judges and members of the bar. Even the jurymen should not object to it since it leaves them less open to suspicion when their verdict does not agree with the popular view of case. HEALTH LAWS.

The ision, gent ing to the feral commission not only condemns the practice of fattening salt oysters fresh-water rivers, but it goes on say that “while it has been the cus- r shippers to place pieces rckages of opened oysters, being shipped, this must n of o n are slso be stdpped, for the reason that such oysters are lable to absorb some of the er from this ice. This lat- ter feature of the law will not be enforced until May 1, 1910, however, in order to give wholesale shippers an opportunity to comply with its terms. When this is finally carried out, oyster will have to use a special container to hold the ice with which it is sought to preserve the contents of an oyster cask.” The “floated” oyster must go out ¢f commerce like bleached flour and other popular and unhealthy products. It is quite likely that the pure-food experts err occasionally in thelr judg- ment and their rules, but since with them it is less of a crime to be too stringent than to be too slack, their errors may be included in the approv- able cls shippers WARN{NGS 7FB’|NTED OuT.

Hypnotism as an Amusement. from The case recently reported Storrs Agricuitural college of the seri. | ous consequences which have ed the hypnotizing of one stud another should act as a warning to the many persons who are too eager to test forces or powers with which they are imperfectly acquainted. In the present instance, the victim feli into a trance which lasted fonrteen hours, and after he had been brought out of the original attack a grave relapse follow- ed with no apparent reason for it. The fellow studént who had innocently done the mischief was overwhelmed with grief: but he possessed no means of meutralizing the evil power he had | unwittingly exerted. Such instances are mot uncommon, and whatever may be the real chara ter of the mysterious influence which some people are capable of exercising over others, it is certain that if used at all, it should be used with the ut- most discretion. It js even doubtful whether persons who have received no | special training should be permitted to employ It. The genuineness of hyp- notic influence has often been Jdisput- | ed, but In spite of the atmosphere of fraud and charlatanism which envel- ops the subject. the many successful | experiments performed by men of sci- ence_seem to prove its existence. There are many people who arc eminent susceptible to such influences, cases are cited in which death or mad- ness has been the outcome of what was begun as a mere jest, 5 1t is also probably easy to persuade certain persons of a highly nervous temperament that they posess medi- umistic or clairvoyant ~powers and even {o induce t to act the parts gned to them with seme degree of success.

A short time ago Dr. Chase, a lead- ing_physician in the city of Boston. made the statement that in his | opinion operati 1o A should be placed by law | 2 cal gory of criminal ac He slated that there were many more fatalities thur cures resulting from such operations and gave it as his belief that many of the cases resulting fatally when oper- ations were performed might have been successfully treated. His state- ments were very positive, and he pre- sented a formidable array of figures. Now comes the foreign medical jour- nals with the statement that the lead- ing German doctors and surgeons are advising strongly against the practice of indiscriminate operations for this disease. They are said to be using their influence to call a halt in this matter. The Teutons state that dur- ing the past 10 years most of the op- erations performed were not only un- necessary but that in a very large majority of cases they were distinctly detrimental where they were not in- deed fatal. The statistics they pre- sent are overwhelmingly against the cure by operation. One the earliest cases that re- ceived widespread notice in this coun- try was that of the operation per- formed on Elliott F. Shepard, the owner and editor of the New York Mail)and Express. _This was one of the fatal cases, But the operation became a fad largely through the prominence of Mr. Shepard, who was 2 very wealthy man, a son-in-law of Commodore Vanderbilt.

Baptist Fund Restored. The attempt to restore the Baptist convention fund was o great under- taking. Official announcement at My: tic yesterday that the task has been completed will please many people. The fund was looted by Treasurer W. F. Walker of New Britain. He stole over $50,000 from it. Discovery of the embezzlement caused surprise and shock, and it inflicted a hard blow on the Baptist organization of Connecticut. To bufld up the fund anew was like paying for a dead horse. The Baptists of Connecticut are not rich, and the demands on their purses are not few or small. Reecognizing that the only .thing for them to do was to buckle to and re- store the fund, they went to work. The business is now finished. The money that has actually been paid in and the pledges that have been made are sufficient to restore the depleted fund to its former proportions. In ore der to accomplish the task many sac: rifices have been made and many plans changed. Numerous were the resnonses to the anpeal. The success which has crowned the work is a tribute to the character of the Baptists of Connecticut. It re- flects credit on their charity, their zeal, their perseverance. We suppose that no $50.000 was ever before raised In Connecticut under such circum- stances—and we trust that the occa- sion for such .another effort will never arise. The lessong which have been taught by the looting and the restoration will not be lost. Business safguards are new thrown around the fund, and the administration of it is conducted on more scientific principles.
