JOCKEY HARRY COCHRAN William C. Whitney’s Crack Rider Leaves the Steamer Just Before She Bails for England. NEW YORK, April 12—Harry Cochran, the jockey who recently signed a contract for §10,000 a year to ride in England during the coming season for William C. Whit- ney, was to have sailed to-day on the steamer Cymric. At the last moment, however, when the boy and other mem- bers of his family were about to start be begged his father to allow him to re- main in this country, pleading a fear of the sea and a general desire to keep away from British sofl." Cochran’s father finally consented to alloy the boy to go ashore. His contract with Whitney may have to be canceled. Later in the day the father said: “The boy didn't want to go. We were all on the Cymric y to sail and sceking our staterooms when two officers of the steamship appeared supporting a woman. Bhe was frantic with fear and her cries filled the air. was completely un- nerved. He sald he would rather quit the business than gq to England, Last sum- mer at Saratoga he had a fall and before he regained consciousness he had several convulsions. I was afraid his' fear of seasickness might possibly bring this trouble on again so I decided to let him stay in this country. Without his nerve it would have been impossible for him to do justice to Whitney's horses.” ———— Four Years for Grand Larceny. Joseph A.

The board of trustees of the Cogswell Polytechnic College has decided to estab- lish early next fall evening courses in engineering leading to the degrees of bachelor of science in mining engineering and bachelor of science in mechanical en- gineering, As the trust deed of the col- lege requires that no charge shall be made for tuition, the trustees feel that many young men now unable to secure a sity of being employed during the day will be glad to take advantage of the lines of work thus offered.

Features of the Proposed Exclusion Bill Stir Debate. Lodge of Massachusetts Opposes the Provision Which Prevents Ameri- | can Ships From Having Chi- nese in Their Service. She LA S WASHINGTON, April 12.—A feature of | the Chinese exclusion debate in the Sen- | ate to-day was the sharp criticism of | Minister Wu of China because of his pro- | test made to the Secretary of State against the enactment of the pending bill. | Mitchell of Oregon and Teller of Colorado sharply attacked him, deciaring that he | deserved to have been given his passports, and that no self-respecting nation would have permitted such interference in legislative affairs. Foraker of Ohio and Hoar of Massachu- | setts insisted ‘that the Chinese Minister had done no more than his duty and that | he would have been derelict of his duty | Tiad he done less. | Lodge of Massachusetts delivered a | speech in support of the pending bill, al- | though he antagonized that provision | which prevented American ships from employing Chinese seamen. He vigorous- ly urged the enactment of the measure with the modifications .he suggested, maintaining that Congress should place permanent and not merely tentative legis- lation on the statute books. He urged that there were mot enough | American seamen on the Pacific Coast to meet the requirements of the bill and he pointed out that the provision in the measure would operate to the disadvan- tage of the country. He maintained that the operation of the pending bill would not aisturb our trade relations with China. He was firmly devoted to the| sanctity of the treaties of this country | and klzowmgly would not vote to violate any tréaty, certainly not any treaty with | China. | The very legislation now on the statuts | books was in a measure a violation of | our treaty with China, as it was enacted | before the treaty of 1894 was negotiated. | The pending measure, he maintained, was ! not in contravention of the treaty of 1894, | which provided that Chinese lnborersi its should be excluded. 3 Hanna of Ohio interrupted to read a telegram_from the president of the Mer- | chant's Exchange and the president of the Chamber of Commerce of San Fran- cisco and several other prominent San Francisco business men urging the re- | enactment of the Geary act because it | would protect fully American labor and doubtless would add to the trade of the United States. In conclusion Lodge made a general | argument against the admission of the | Chinese and against unrestricted immi- | gration generally. In the presence ot’ Mongolian labor our own labor would per- | ish, and he hoped the Senate would get | out of the pending bill the best lezlsln-l tion possible to meet this great question. Frye of Maine explained that as presi- | dent pro tem. He frequently received dis patches and letters bearing upon legis- lation proposed. He had received some | concerning the pending bill and he read | several dispatches from business men of | Francisco expressing the hope that | the pending bill would not pass because it | was too drastic in its provisions; because it would interfere with our trade with | China, and insisting upon the re-enact- | ment of the Geary act, which, they seld, would protect amply American interests and American labor. ! sreaklng of the provision in the bill re- | lating to the employment of Chinese on American ships, e referred to what he called “a spectacular performance’ the | other day between the Senator from In-| diana (Fairbanks) and_the Senator from California (Perkins). Senator Falrbanks took exception to Frye's reference and said somewhat warmly: “It seemed a ‘spectacular performance’ to only the | Benator from Maine.” “I doubt it,”” insisted Frye. “It seemed 80 to many Senators.” In opposition to some points of the bill, Gallinger of New Hampshire sald the au- | thor of the pending measure would not | know the creature of his brain after it had through the ordeal which was awaiting it in the Senate. ‘“What on earth,” he inquired, “‘are the | l\:fporten of the bill g this hulla- baloo about, any way?"’ Teller of Colorado said it was the wish of the advocates of the measure to ex- clude absolutely Chinese laborers, and he | believed 1t could not be done except by | some drastic measure such as that under | an coneideration. He criticized the Chinese | Minister for “Interfering” with gendlnm legislation. “It never had been done in this country,” he sald, “and nothing n | the treaty can be tortured into an excuse for such an act. No self-respecting na- tion ever has permitted such an fnzar-( ference in its affairs.”” He challenged an Bqn-.t:r to point to a precedent for muz an act. Spooner of Wisconsin, Interrupting, with & smile said, “I accept the challenge.” “I have no desire,”” replied Teller, “to fight a duel with the Senator.” ‘If my memory does not betray me,” continued Senator Spooner, “‘during the consideration of the Dingley tari® bin some of the representatives of foreign governments protested against the enact- ment of certain of its provisions.' Dryden of New Jersey explained briefly that as a member of the Immigration Committes he wus opposed to several pro- visions of the bill, particularly that pro- viding that American vessels could not employ Chinese seamen. Patterson of Colorado presented resolu- tons nlgnfitod by seafaring men in New York, Philadelphia and San Francisco jn | support of the pending bill, and urging | that they could do the work on Orfental trudlns:hl?u da:};{te the heat.

HARRADEN'S STUPENDOUS GIFT ENTERPRISE Celebrated Hypnotist Now Distrib- uting Fifty Thousand Copies of a Wonderful Free Book. SECRETS AND MYSTERIES EX- POSED. The Professor Tells How All May Learn His Strange and Magic Art. I am at present giving away an elegan§ illustrated book on the subject of Hypno- tism. It is absolutely free to anybody and everybody who may read this article. It is the most beautiful, interesting and val- uable book ever published. Those who glance at a single page of it are spell- bound by the subject and would gladly, read it to the end, if possible, at one sit< ting. From long years of study and ex- periment I know this realm of Hypnotism in all its branches and extent. I am an adept and acknowledged authority on its methods, mysteries and uses. my vast experience as demonstrator and teacher I can also impart this knowledge to others in a pleasing way. As you read my charming book, so do you master my subject. Every wonderful feature of the science is exposed with crystal clearness. I begin by showing you what Hypnotism really is—the nature of the trance-like condition into which one mind can cast others, and by the control of their wille and faculties attain the most varied and surprising results. It is hereby you are enabled to exercise, in such ways as I fully direct you, all the strange and MAGIC POWERS OF HYPNOTISM, Here you get the true secrets of Personal Magnetism, which makes a Napoleon the idol of armies and a Beecher or Wendeil | Phillips the charm of listening multitudes. Here, also, you find the solution not only of bygone sorcery and necromancy, but of those modern mental phenomena in Clairvoyance Mind Reading, Telepathy and other exhibits that bewilder the most intelligent observers. But the veil of mys- tery drops away from them all to those ‘who study my free book. They become to you practical arts instead of themes for mere speculation and surprise.

The use you can make of Hypnotism for the relief of suffering humanity is one that must commend itseif to every sympathetic heart. The parent who has a wayward child, the wife who has a dissipated husband, the teacher who has to deal with a slothful or refractory pupil, the nurse or relative who has to manage a fretful invalid, all these and many more are furnished with a helper in Hypnotism that will immediately take up the burden of their anxfeties. Above all, do these powers Invoke our gratitude as’a SPECIAL BOON TO THE SICK. They who grasp the secret of Hypnotism can heal themselves as well as others. No longer need the sick man worry himseif into despair. No longer may it be said of the invalid that nothing seems to heip him. All these downcast and suffering ones become their own doctors, self-treat- ing, self-sufficing and self-curing, by methods which are more potent and cer- tain than any medical system ever yet known. Nor is this any more than one department of its powers. FOR YOUR PERSONAL GAIN.
