STRANGE MENTAL How People Are Influenced Startling Words From the Committee Appolntedi to Investizate Hypnotism for the Benefit of Journal Readers. FROM THE N. Y. JOURNAL, COLN. M. D., 1 st., Dallas, JUDGE HENRY SCHAFER, Tex. Flemington, N. J. . H. STOUFER, Secretary and Treasurer REV. PAUL WELLER, of Rallway Conductors, Pueblo, Colo. Gorham, N. Y. Hypnotism 18 no longer a myth, a fanciful creation of the mind, but a real- ity, 2 most potent power, capable of producing infinite good. For the purpose of ascertalning the exact value of this ch talked of power a committee composed of & physician, a well-known juriet, a prominent minister and a leading rallroad men was appointed to investigate Hypnotism. The committee carried on a series of investigations in regard to the power of hypnotism to influence the actions end deeds of people in the every day walks of life. The first step taken by the members of the committes was to master the ecience in every detail, so that they might stats from personal experience the £o0d or evil this strange power might produce. They wrote the New York Insti- tute of Sclence, of Rochester, N. Y., the greatest school of Hypnotism and Oc- cult Belences in the world, and received full and complete Instructions in regard »w hypnotism may be used to influence people in business, how to use it in g diseases, etc., etc. In a few days they mastered these instructions and llfledged hypnotists. t was clearly demonstrated that hypnotism may be employed so that the per- bt son operated upon is enfirely unconscious of the fact that he is being influenced; and, all things considered, the committee regard it as the most valuable discov- ery of modern times. A knowledge of it is essential to one’s success in life and well being in soclety. Dr. Lineoln says, after a thorough Investigation, that he considers 1t the most marvelous therapeutic or curative agent of modern times Judge Schafer, although a legal light. turned his attention to healing the sick, and In a few treatments he completely cured John E. Myers of Flemington, N. J., of 2 strange malady that had kept Iim bedfast for nine years, and which the doc- tors sald must surely kill him. Judge Schafer's fame spread for miles around and hundreds of people applied to him for treatment. Mr. Stoufer performed the astonishing feat of hypnotizing Mr. Cunningham of Pueblo, Colo., at & distance of several blocks. He also hypnotized an aged gen- tleman and had him run through the streets shouting “Redhot peanuts for sale.” Mr. Btoufer =ays it is indispensable to one’s business success. Rev. Paul Weller seys that every minister and every mother should under- stand hypnotism for the benefit they can be to those with whom they are brought in dafly contact. In speaking of this marvelous power President Eliot of Harvara College said to the graduates: “Young gentlemen, there is a subtle power lying latent in each of you which few of you bave developed, but which, when developed, might make 2 man irresistible. It is called Personal Magnetism, or Hypnotism. I advise you to master 1t.” The New York Institute of Sclence has just issued 10,000 copies of a book which fully explains all the secrets of this marvelous power and gives explicit directions for becoming a practical hypnotist, so that You can employ the force without the knowledge of any one. Anybody can learn. Buccess guaranteed. The book also contains & full report of the members of the committee. It will be sent absolutely free to any one who is interested.

Chase, secretary of the County Central Commit- tee, presided and the multitude cheered wildly when the curtain of the stage was | ratsed upon a sunburst studded with in- | candescent lights, above which were the words “‘Progress, Prosperity, National Honor.”~ At either side of the sunburst were large American flags partially furled and in their folds in circular frames two feet across and surrounded by incan- | descent lights were pictures of McKinley | and Roosevelt. The effect was beautiful, | and while the band played “The Star- | Spangled Banner” the audience cheered again and again. Short speeches wers made by E. D. Gardner, H. 8.

HONTER FINDS THREE GRAVES ON A HILLSIDE Mysterious Discovery Near Chinese Camp on Point San Pedro. ——— DEAD INTERRED IN LONELY SPOT ok That the Tombs Contain Dodies of Mongolians Slain in Highbinder Wars. et SR A Belief the ADVERTISEMENTS. A Signal TRIUMPH L’Aiglon Py and SAN RAFAEL, Nov. 10.—Three un- marked graves, one covered with freshly | spaded earth, were found by Isaac Smith of this city while quail hunting yester- day on the bushy hillside that rises above a Chinese fishing camp on the northern side of Point San Pedro. Coroner Eden of this city has no knowledge that will throw IXght u‘fcn the identity of the dead that lle buried there, how they met death or when and by whom they were in- terred. The graves lle in one of the most deso- late portions of the point. No road runs near them, and only & winding trail used | by Chinese shrimp fishers is the means of approach by land, unless tramps a quarter of a mile over rugged hills and through the thick brush that lle to_the west. The mysterious graves are about 300 yards from shore on the rounding face of a steep hill. Near the shore and off to the left about a stone's throw les a small fishing village, with its cosmopolitan population of ducks, dogs and Chinamen. Upon two of the graves green grass Is growing and they would hardly attract the notice of a passer-by, but on the third the freshly turned sofl is barren of all vegetation. Twenty feet from the graves and carefully stowed away In the underbrush Mr. Smith found two 12-foot scantlings, the ends of which had been carefully planed and rounded to afford a better grip to'the hand. Their nearness to the graves gave them a lit- ter-like appearance, and the small end of a burned candle found under them in the leaves occasioned the belief that they were used when the daylight had gone. The San Pedro fishing camps are small_province of Ching as far as the customs and mode of life of their ever- changing population are concerned. The white man’s world knows little of what transpires within their bounds. From time to time rumors of battles and blood- shed among warring factions of the fish- ermen have come to this city, but as evidence never came with them' the offi- clals here let them pass as rumors only. The finding of these graves will probabiy only a, { result In a full and thorough investiga- tion. It has long been known here that the highbinder wars in San Francisco have sent many a hunted Celestial to the fish- eries to escape from foes or the officers. As marked men with prices upon their heads they have gone into hiding among the shrimp camps. It is not regarded here as improbable that the bodies n the San Pedro graves may bear the vis- ble marks of the hatchet or the cluo. Lust fall Edward Watson of this city, while attempting to take the census’ of the camps, ‘was threatened by a large num- ber of the Mongols and was compelled to seek safety in flight. Coroner Eden will open the graves and see if they contain the bodies of China- men or white men. SHORTAGE IN ACCOUNTS OF FORMER POSTMASTER Inspector Dennis Coyle Investigating Alleged Irregularities at Millwood. FRESNO, Nov. 10.—Dennis Coyle, Post- office Inspector, is at Millwood inspecting the books of the office at that place. Up to the first of last June James Collyler was postmaster and Mrs. Kanauger held a position as deputy. About that tima Collyler tired of the bonds that bound him to his wife and with another woman took a journey to the north. Mrs. Kanau- ger was then appointed postmistress an it was she who discovered the alleged ir- regulamé in the former postmaster's ac- counts. She reported the shortage to the department and Inspector Coyle was sent {0 investigate, He spent a couple of days in Fresno gathering information and went from here to Visalla. Last night he laft Visalia for Millwood. He expects to fin- ish his work and get back to Fresno by Monday. Collyier was at one time a Deputy Sher- oft of Fresno County and he has many friends here who will be sorry to hear of the turn his affairs have taken. When the deficiency became known Jacob Her- mann, who was on the former postmas- ter's bond for $2000, was notifled. He as- certained that Collyler was now living at Louisyille, Wash.,, and communicated with him. Collyier replied that he had left no shortage except one of $3, which was for stamps. The postmistress says that there are several instances of funds unaccounted for—one for $90, one for $42 and other smaller amounts. |oiermann stands ready to make good the oss.
