Aithough I had known George Martin along time, he had only lately imtiated me into the mysteries of his life. I knew well that he had been guilty of many kinds of excesses and indiscre- tions in his youth, nevertheless I was not a little astonished to hear that he had once sunk so low as burglary. With- out further remark I here relate the chief episode out of the remurkable ca- reer of this strange man: (e 1 he, *'I nad a hard time of it in those days, and finally I became a —burglar. When Robert Schmiedlein proposed to me that we should break into the somewhat retired house of two doctors, Dr. Ingler and Dr. Langner, I thoughtiessly agreed. Both. doctors were well known on account of their scientific ressurches, and one of them for his eccentric manner. “Well, the night fixed for the carry- ing outof our design arrived, and we went to work with the greatest confi- dence, for all the circumstances were favorable for a burglary. It was pitch dark, neither moon no: stars visible, and in addition a strong west wind was blowing, which was very welcome to us, as it promised to drown every sound, however slight. *It was toward 2 in the morning as we, assuming all was safe, bogan by filing through a chain which fastened a ladder to the wall. The ladder we placed under a window in the first story on the left side of the house. [In less than five minutes we had opened the window, and, hearing nothiug, Schmied- lein climbed through it and I followed him. After carefully reclosing the venetians we ventured to light a lant- orn, and then discovered that we were in a kind of lumber room, the door of which was locked, “After picking deter- mined first to explore the rooms on the ground floor, thinking we snould thus run less risk of waking the inhabitants of the house. *To our no little astonishment we per- ceived, as we crent downstairs, a light shining under the dos ol onc of the rooms at the buck of the building. At first we wero both for beating a hasty retreat. Schmiedicin soon recov- oved himself, and proposed that we should force our way into the room, bind and gag every occupant, and then obtain by threats all desirable information. “I agreeing, we approached the door, While carefully throwing the light round, I noticed, about seven feet from the floor, a wira which appeared to pass through the door we were aporoaching, and on pointing it out to my compunion, he thought it would be connected with some bell, I replied in a whisper that we should try and avoid an alarm by cutting the wire, and as 1 could ‘just reach it with my hands [ would ho'd it firm whilst Schmiedlein cut it between my hunds, and thus prevent it jerking back and ringing the bell, “'Setting the lantern on the floor, I seized the wire,while Schmiedlein drew a pair of pincers out of his pocket. But the moment I touched it I felt u fright- Jul shock, which guivered through and* through ine, 8o that [ fell all of & heap, tearing the wire down with me. I re- mamber hearing the loud ringing of a bell, whilst Schmiedlein—whom, more- over, have mnever seen since—disip- penred like lightning into the darkness and escaped, very likely by the way we had come. “On fulling down I struck my head violently ugainst the opposite wall and became unconscious, whilst the electric bell—at that time a novelty--rang un- censingly. “Roguining my senses, T found myself bound and helpless, which after all did not surpeise me, us I concluded { hud been caught where I had fell. It soon struck me, however, that there were some peculiur circumstunces connected with my captivity T wus nearly undressed, and lay on a cold slab of slute which was about the height of u table from the ground and only a piece of linen protected my body from immedinte contract with the stone. Straight above me hung & large lamp whose polished reflector spread a light far uround and when I, as fur as pos- sible, looked around I perceived several shelves with bottles, Husks und chemical appuratus of all kinds upon them. In one corner of the room stood a complete buman skeleton and various odds and ends of human bodies hung here and there upon the walls, [ then knew I waus lying on the operation—or dissect- ing—table of a doctor, adiscovery which naturally troubled me greatly; at the the lock, we DAILY BEW MONDAY, AUGUST 8 Nl same time I percsived that my mouth also was firmly gdfied “What did it &l mean? Had some accident befallen &' so that a surgical operation was necpssary for my recov- ery? But I remathbbred nothing of the kind and also felt no pain; nevertheless heroe I lay strivped dnd helpless on this terrible table gagged and bound, which indicated somethitify extraordinary. “It astomsned ms not a little that there should be suek an operation room in such o house untu I remembered that Dr. Langnar, as the district phy an, had to cavey out Tthie post-mortem ex- aminations for the circuit, and that in the small provineinl town no other room was available for such a purpose. I felt too miserable, however, to think any- thing more anboutit, Bi I soon noticed after another vain effort to free myself, that I was not alone in the room, for [ heard the rustling of paper, and then some one said i quict, measured tones: **Yes, Languor, I am quite convinced that this man is particularly suited for the carrying out of my highly im- portant experiment. How long have [ been wishing to mako the attempt—at lust, tonight, [ shall be able to produce tho proof of my thoory,’ “*Thut would indeed be a high triumph of humun skill,” [ heard a se ond voice reply; ‘but consider. dear doc- tor, if that mun there were to expire under our hands—whay then?’ **‘Impossible!’ was the quick reply. ‘Tt is bound to succeed, and even if it aid not, he will die a giorious denth in the interests of science, whilst, if we were to let him go, he would sooner or or full into the hands of the hang- man.’ I couald not even see the two men, yet theiv conversation was doubtless about me: and, heaving it, I shuddered from houd to foot. They were proposing some dangerous operation on me, not for my benefit, but in the interest of medical szience! “At any vate, I thought, they won’t undertake such a thing without my sanction: and what, after all, was thi intentio It inust be something terr! ble, for they had already mentioned the possibility of my succumbing. [ should soon know the fearful truth, for, alter a short pause, they continued: {1t has long been ucknowledged that the tru» source of life 1 n the blood. What I wish to prove, dear Langner, is this: Nobody will die from pure loss of blood, and yel such cases occur only too often, whilst we must all the time be in possession of means torenew this highly important sap of life, and thus avoid u fatal result. We read of a few. but only a few, cases of a man who for somo reason or other has lost so much blood that his death appeared inevitable, if some othor noble-hearted man had not offered his own blood, in order to let it flow from his veins into the veins of the dying man. As you are aware, this pro- ceeding has always had the desired effect. T consider’ it, however, a groat mistike todeprive a fellowing being of necessary blood, for the onc thereby onlyyains life and strength at the cost of another, who offe himself for an always dungerous sacvifice.’ “*Yes, I do not think that right, either,” replied Dr. Langn ‘And moveover, how seldom is & man found at the critical moment ready to submit himself at once to such a dangerous loss of blood.” ““That is very natural: no one lightly undertakes such a thing,’ coatinued the other. ‘So much greater will be our triumph if the operation succeeds. I hope to show you, dear colleague, that although we are thinking of taking that man’s blood, even to the last drop, in a few hours we shall set him on his feet agnn.’ **“Just so! T do not see why we should not succced. At any rate, in the in- terests of science we should prove in a practical manner the correctness of our theorv.” ‘“*And this proof, dear friend, we will undertake without delay. Let me just repeat my instructions, for we cannot o to work too cavefully to preserve the life of this man. I will open a vein in his thigh and measure exnctly the quan- tity of blood which flows out, at the same time watching the beating of the heurt. Under ordinary cire mstances nothing could possibly save him; but just before the extinction of the last spark of life wo will insert the warm blood of a liv- ing rabbit into his veins, as we have al- ready arranged. If my theory is right, the 'pulsation of the heart will then gradually incrense in strength and rapidity. At the me time, it is im- portant to protect his limbs from cold and stiffness, which will naturally take place with the loss of all arterial blood.” *“The conversation of the two doctors overwhelmed me with deadly tervor. [ could cely believe 1 was reaily awake, und not the victim of some cruel nightmure. “The fact remained, however, that I lay helpless on the dissecting table, that a threatening skeleton stood in the cor- ner of the room, and, ubove all, that ter- rible conversation which I had to listen to in silence filled me with a fear such as I haa never before experienced. In- voluntarily the thought forced itself upon me that I was at the mercy of two infatuated doctors, to whose mad theory I should here fall the victim. *[ suid to myself that no doctor with a sound mind would proposo such a frightful and wmurderous experiment upon u living man, “The two doctors now approachea the dissecting table and looked calmly into my face; then; smiling, took off “their conts and tucked up their sleoves. I struggled to get free, as only a desper- ate man under such extraordinary cir- cumstances could have struggled. In vain, Their long nequired experionco knew how to render me completely helpless, and to their satisfaction, I could not even make a sound. “Dr. Engler now turned to a side- table, and I saw himopen a chest of sur- gical instruments. and take out a lancet, with which he rotyrned to me. He at once removed the covering from my right thigh, and although I lay bound 1o the table in such a way that I could not see my limbs; J'wus able to watch the doctor busied With his preparations, “Directly after removing the cloth I felt a prick in the side of my leg, and at once felt the warm blood rush forth and trickle down my, 'iqg. Tha conviction that he had opened the principal vein in the thigh would have sufficed to shake the strongest nervis. ““There is no darger,’ said Dr. Eng- ler, looking into jy. suaring eyes with terrible calmness: ‘You will not die, my good man, 1" have only opened an artery in your thigh, anda you will ex- perience all the sgusations of bleeding to deatn. You will, get weakor and wenker, ana finally, perhups, iose ail consclousness, but we shall not let you die. No, no! You must live and as- tonish the scientific world through my greut discovery!” “1 paturally could suy nothing in reply, und no words can adequately ex press what I felt at that moment. I could, in one breath, huve wept, im- ploved, cursed and raved, “Meunwhile I felt my life’s blood flowing and could hewr it drop into a COUNT DISTRI COMPANIE! T.R.R.CO| Correspondence solicited.

Every moment the doctor laid his hand on’'my heart, at the same time making remarks which only increased my horror, **After he had put his hand on me for at loast the twentieth time, and felt the beating of the hoart, he said to his as sistant: * *Aro you ready with your prepara- tions, Langner? He has now lost an enormous quantity of blood,and the pul- sation is gotting weak and weaker. See, he is already losing consciousnes: and with these words ho took the gag out of my mouth, “A feeling of eadly woakness, s well asof infinite misery, laid hold of me when the physician uttered these words, and on my attempting to speak, I found that searcely a whisporing musmur vassed my lips. Shadowy phuntoms and strania colors flitted before my eyes and I belisved myself to be already in a state past all human aid. “What happened in the next fow min- utes I.do not know, for I had fainted. When I reopened my eyes I noticed [ was no longor on the dissecting table, but was sitting in un armchair in a com- fortable room, nenr which stooda the two doctors looking at me. “Near me was a flask of wine, several smelling salts, o few basing of cold water, some sponges and n.galvanic bat- tery. It was now bright daylight, and the two doctors smiled us they looked at m Whon Iremembered tho terrible ex- périment, I shuddered with horror and tried to ris 1 felt too weuk, however, and sank back helpless into the chai Then the eireuit physician,in o friendly but firm voice, addressing me: “Compose yourself, young min. You imagined you were slowiy bleeding to death; nevertheless, be assured that you have not lost w single drop of blood. You have undergone no operation what- ever, but have simply been the victim of your own imagination. We kiew very well you heard every word of our conversation, n conversation which was only intended to deceive you as much as possible. What I maintained was that a man’s body will always completely lio under the influence of what he himself firmly balieves, whilst my co'league, on the other hanl, held the opinion that the body can never be hurt by anything which only exists in the imagination. This has long been an open question be- tween us, which, after your capture, wo at once determined to decide. So we surrounded you with objects of a nature to influence your imagination, aided farther by our conversation; and,finaily, your conviction that we would really carry out the operation of which you heard us speak completed the decep- tion. **You have now the sal knowing that you are as safe und as sound as ever you were. Atthe same tima we assure you that you really showed all the symptoms of aman bleed- ing to death, u proof that the body can sometimes suffer from the most absurd unreality that the mind can imagin *“Astonishment, joy and doubt at find- ing mysell neither dead nor dying struggled within me, and then the rage of having bzen subjectou to such an awful and heartless experiment by the two doctors overcame me. 1 was quickly interrupted by Dr. Engler, however, on trying to give free scope to my indigna- tion. **We had faction of not exactly any right to undertake such an experiment with you,” he said; *but we thought you would pardon us if we delivered you from cer- tain punishment, instead of having to undergo a painful trinl and a tong im- prisonment for burglary. You are cer- tainly at liberty to complain about us; but consider, my good fellow, if such n step is in your interests? Ido not think 80. Onthe other hand, we are quite willing to make you a fitting compensa tion for all the agony you have suf- fered.” “Under the circumstances,” continued George Martin, “I considered it wise to accept their proposal, although I have not to this day forgiven the two men for 80 treating me. ““Phe doctors kept their promise.
