THE B Some Things You Want to Know Feats of One of the most remarkable attributes of the human mind (s memory. It is well attested by those who have been restored | to consclousness after being reseued from | drowning, that at the point where con- | sctousness ceased and unconsciousness be- £an In one brief moment the whole life of the Individual appeared before tne eye of the mind, and as the moving picture passes on from the beginning to the end, so the | events from the cradie to the watery grave have marched past in unbroken proces- ston Just now the psychologists and the edu- cators are changing thelr opinion as to what really makes up the memory. Is It one compesite whole, to be trained in re- | membering every sort of thing by remem- | bering some special things? Or Is it a col- lection of facultles that must have each part trained for the spectal function it is to exercise? The newer school of psycholo- gists belleve it to be the latter, and that it fs tnpossible to train the mind to re- | member botanical names by giving It exer- ciso in the sequence of numbers. They | ofter the fact that a man who can remem- ber the names of every kind of fish that swims ray have great difficulty in master- ing the muitiplication table, while a man who can match colors to a remarkable degree of accuracy cannot retain the name of the last person introduced. Likewlse, the musiclan who can sing over again every £ong he has ever heard, may not re- call the face of the man he met only yes- terday. Throughout the history of the world per- sons endowed with remarkable memories have been objects of great interest. Pliny gives us the statement that Cyrus knew all of his officers and soldiers, and could greet each one by name as he was pre- sented. And some say that Cyrus had a million soldlers, although the chroniclers of that day may have been too liberal in thelr estimates. Pliny also declares that | Cyneas, who vieited Rome as tue am- bassador of Phyrrhus, was presented to the members of the Roman sensts on the day of his arrival, and that upon meeting | them again the next day he addressed every senator by his name and surname, withou: a single error in the whole sen- ate. Upon which the #enators greatly ma velled at the powerful mind of the visit- | ing ambacsador. In at least one case of great memory galned a throne. Otho, while the head of his army, remembered every soldier by name, and knew something of his business, his habits, and his relations. The soldlers concluded that if he had such a deep iIn- terest in them as their general, as their | emperor he would not forget them, so they | elevated him to the throme. But there he forgot the name of them all, and straight- | way he lost the throne, | Plutarch is responsible for the statement | that Sciplo Aslaticus was one of the great- { est memorizers of history, and accredits | him with knewing tho name of every Ro- man cltizen. Reference to the population statistics of Scipio Asiaticus’ time shows that Rome and its environs had a popula- tion of 255000 souls. This same historian vouches for the fact that Themistocles knew overy citizen of Athens by name, of whom there were some 25,000, It is also | recorded that this was a great political | asset for Themistoclcs, which shows. that politi has not greatly changed. | Cacsar made something of a reputation | for himself in the line of a good memory. |1t 1s tola that not only had he a great memory for the names of the men whe made up his leglons, but that languaga: {and dinlccts were ea. for him to master. | One historian declares that he could dic tate to four or five stenographuers at one time, and In a different language to each But even immortal Caesar must take sec- | ond place In history as a dictator to secre- taries, even If he docs not as a dlctator to peoples and nations. It is receorded that Marcet, an officlal of the govcrnment under | Louts XV. of France, could dictate to at least ten secretaries at one time and to | each in a different language, the while | keeping the tenses, the number, and the inumumllnn of very sentence pertect. Oleopatra Is reputed to have been a great | linquist, and 1t is said that she could speak in any one of thirty or forty dialeats, as |wcu as if each were her native tongue, | Cardinal Mezzafonti of Rome, was perhaps | the foremost linquist of any age or time. It is declared that he was able to converse perfectly in any one of fifty-two different | languages. It s said that there came to | Rome one time a Scandinavian who spoke a peculiar patios, which was unknown to | any one in Rome. Cardinal Meszafonti haa this man to visit him several times, and then spoke to him In his own pecullar | atalect. Mezzatonti’ claimed that his gift in language was a miraculous endowment, | and the pope shared his opinion. One of the most remarkable mathsmati- cul memaries of history was that of Jedo- alah Duxton, born in England in the days of Qarrick. He could measuro distance with his eye to the very breadth of a halt and could guess the flight of time to & | sccond. 8o astonishing were his feats of Memory. classity the same number of fishes. In 185 an llliterate peasant woman went to St. Petersburg and gave exhibitions show- Ing that she could recite without a slip 15,000 folk songs and poems. Perhaps the most remarkable instance ot a precoclous [lliterate mind is related as the experiefice of the learned Dr. Mot fatt, a missionary to Africa. He haa preached a long sermon to a tribe of woodsmen, and after it was over sat down to rest. A little while late: he saw a com motion among the tribesmen some dis- tance off, and went to investigate. There he found a tribesman on a stump, deily- ering his own sermon verbatim, not even neglecting a single Inflection or a single gesture. The ravage was given the name of the “great human phonograph.” The Engiish mathematiclan Wallas was able, without any aid to his memiory, 1o extract the square root of a number of fitty-three digits. George Coburn, born in Vermont, at the aged of 6 was able to ell how many seconds there were In any given number of days or years, and at 7 years old he raised elght to iis sixteenth power without the slightest aid to his memory, and 4id it in two minutes. He could find the square root of a number of six digits in twenty seconds. George Bidder, an Eng- | lishman, was able to calculate the Intere: on 4444 pounds, sterling, for 4,444 days, ut 4% per cent, In two minutes. 1 It is sald that many of the Polynesian | tribal chlefs can recite thelr genealogy so fur back that it takes days and weeks for | the recital, and yet never make a siip; while many of the Brahmin priests carry 10,000 verses of tie Rig Veda in their heads. | Many a son of Islam knows his Ko by rote, and it is said that Prof. 8. N. Mc( n, now of Bridgewater, Va., but for years a missionary in Indla, has almost (‘Umplelcdi the memorization of the Bible. He had learned the New Testament nearly fifteen years ago. The greatest example of infantile pre- cocity in the world is said to have be:r Christian Henry Heinecken, born in Ger- | many in 1721. At fourteen months he knew the history of the Bibie; at thirty montns he understood geography, history, the use of maps, had mastered anatomy and learned 5,000 Latin words. In his fourth year he completed a course in ecclesiastical history, the doctrine of divinity, proofs of the Bible, knew 200 hymns and their tunes, elghty psalms and 1,600 verses from the classics. Besldes, he had mastered arith- metic and four languages. No wonder he died before he was G! The great critic Joseph Scaliger is sald to have been the most profound sch roin | history, o far as stored knowledge is con- | ce d. He learned all the works of Home by rote in twenty-one days, and In threo | months more he had mastered the rest of | the Greek poets. In two years he was able to quote verbatim any passage from the whole range of classic literature. Whence comes | the memory? Surglaal | experience has taught something about ft. Many instances are recorded where a blow | on the head has blotted out the memory | entirely, and that when surgcons operated on the victim with success the memory | would begin again as from the timé of -ho | blow. In one case a soldier's skull was injured by a flylng plece of shell. ¥or years his mind was a blank. Then a skilled | surgeon performed an operation and his | memory started again from that fateful day on the battlefield. By FREDERIC J. HASKIN. Tomorrow—LAKDING OF THE MAY- FLOWER.
