' It is possible that Gahriello Bompard is guilty of murder, mid that her de-finite is shrewdly adopted from the knowledge she obtained in tho reports from the hospital of St. Salpe'cire, but there is no shadow of doubt but what tho crime might have been committed by her under hypnotic influences with-out her being legally or morally respou-s- i til" for it. II vpnotisni is a dangerous agriiey, unit it is a mooted question whether a knowledge of it by the masses is advis-able or not. The Kynttid trial being tho first one in which the inlltieiico ' is set up its a defense it will havo art un-wonted medical, legal and general in-terest. HYPNOTISM A A 1IKFKNSE. Tomorrow will begin in Paris one of the most sensational criminal trials that the most sensational capital in the world has ever witnessed. It will be that of Michael Kjraud and (Jabritdlo Bompard for tho murder of Roussaint Augustin ioulfy. Aside from the ro-mantic incidents of the tragedy itself the defense of the woman Hoi n paid will attract the widest and keenest interest. She claims to have acted wholly upon "suggestion" while in a state of hypnotism and that she is therefore not responsible for her part hi the murder. It is not yet certain whether the court will permit this plea to be used publicly or not for the same reasons perhaps that, the practice has been kept secret from the people. Hypnotism and its influences are pretty well dcGued, and nowhere have scientific tests in connection with it been carried further than in the hospital of !St. Salpetiere in the very shallow of the court room in which the last act of the Kyratid drama is to be performed tomorrow. Were it not for tho high authority of tho physicians employed in these eNperiments, conducted in different cities under widely different circumstances, it would be impossible to believe that hypnotism can produce effects so remarkable anil so extraordi-nary as to be inexplicable on any known scientific basis. There is absolutely no human faculty that cannot be worked upon in a hyp-notic state. The sense can be dulled or sharpened at the will of the operator to a most remarkable degree. All the pe-culiar phenomena variously known as spiritualism, mind reading, mind cure, etc., find their ready explanation in hypnotism. It is a fact that by a mere suggestion an object, no matter how large, can be made invisible to the hyp-notized person, or an invisi'iilo object can be made to appear clearly visible to the patient. Or its proportions, color, etc., can be changed to his view. It is the same with tho souse of hear-ing, of smell, or of any other human faculty. People under hypnotio inllu-enc- e sometimes display an incredible knowledge of things which in their nor-mal state they have no idea of. Nor is the influence active merely for the mo-ment. Persons have been hypnotized and commanded to do certain things months later which they performed at the appointed time to the very minutest detail though during the long interval between tho suggestion and the execu-tion of the act they were wholly obli-vions of their mission. The very act which will bring Gab-riell- e Bompard before the courts tomor-row his been performed in Prof. Charcot's clinic, and in many another clinic, though only iu moc k tragedies, by innocent persons acting under, hyp-notic influences. Prof. Fere once com-manded a subject to stab a physician the next morning as he was making the rounds of the hospital wards, and at the appointed time, without hesitation, the man pounced upon tho doctor and thrust a dagger into his heart. The dagger was, of course, an innoceiv stage instrument. Many such experi- - mentsbythe most reputable and re-- j spected of the world's scientists have been made for the last twenty year.-- j PERKINS ' A ADDITION. .

The failure of a number of eastern hanks has created alarm among the depositors and as an exchange truly re-marks, "These aro the days of old stocking finance. They say that tho people who ordinarily keep their money in the banks where it is perfectly safe, have been taking it out and putting it in their old stockings, teapots, parlor stoves, bureau drawers, or mayhap, they havo preferred to tuck it away Under the belts of their waistcoats, or sewed it tip in their petticoats, or put it in a jug stink in tho well. In cither case it is sluvwdly opined that the im-mediate outlook fur sneak thieves and burglars Is good. It is easier to rillo tho average household than to crack a bank any day." Secretary Windom recite substan-tially the same story, lie says the treasury has put more money itito gen-eral circulation than at any other time within his knowledge, and yot tho stringency is not removed. It does not occur to these people that by their withdrawal of the funds in hank they tighten tho money market and aggravate the condition unneces-sarily. Then) is no sense in this whole-sale hoarding of cash to the detriment of tho general business of the country, but it is characteristic of human nature which acts upon impulse, and in imita-tion of others. Tho banks that failed in the recent panic were, with one or two exceptions, operators and brokers in spec-ulath- e values, and with a decline of these values came their doom. Con-servative banks wero not affected or would not bo affected but for thu Kcnso-les- s stampede of depositors. In Salt Lake City wn have every reason to s contiilcnco iu our banking houses which have upheld the financial honor and standing of this community in every emergency. As tho clearance ro turns show the financial panic has had no effect here, spending its entire force long before It reached tho Kockics. Only a Milvtir Dollar. CTtisonlya silver dollar -- it's grimy and old and worn; tho last that is in my pocket, and it goes for a morning horn, as hundreds have gone before it, as hundreds more may go, for a second of shallow pleasure, an ago of remorse ant woe. It's enly a silver dollar tho last that my eyes may sen, and it litis been owned and handled by scores ere it came to me; it's dated in 'ti?, when I was a boy, and thought thata wretched nmall silver dollar was largo as a wheel ah, rot! This dollar in years now vanished perhaps was a boon to one, a boon to some struggling toiler, who groaned 'neath the midday sun; perhaps to the lonely widow, who wept for tho silent dead, it brought to her homo soino comfort, to her children, perhaps, some bread; all, yes, to tho starving children, in hut that knew naught of gold, brought food in tho heat of summer, and faggots when days were cold; perhaps they may owe existence, and fort tine and joy and fame, to this dollar of 'tiT, tho last that is to my name. Per-haps by the (ianges river, some man as a heat hen troil, and found the way by this dollar, to tho glory and grace of (iod; and if, in erratic travels, it guided a human soul, above all tho slums and darkness, the rivers of death thut roll, then have 1 the right to spend it? This dollar may sacred be well, well; it is queer how fancies this morning surg ! over me! It's queer - but the same old craving comet over me as of yore, I pause, and I'm vaccilatmg one hand on the gin mill dour; I pause -- but the pause is useless though close by the chasm's brink. I throw on the liar my dollar, and call for the morning drink. Walt Mason. 1KEI7ALS AHDOL0SE OF MAILS. Srhfi'.i'.l of arrival au:t cloln of malls at Salt Lakeit P stofflao, Nov. 17, two: MAILS.

It is estimated that Salt Lake City contains about two hundred families of New England birth or descent. They are, as everywhere, among the sturdiest men and women in tho community, in-telligent, loyal and enterprising. Of all tho immigration in this western country that from the rocky Atlantic coast is the most desirable. Wherever New Kngland's snusaud daughters have settled, as in tho central western states in the earlier years before tho war, they have given character nd direction to the new countries that must bo felt for generations to come. With these people Forefather's day U an observance of l'uritan origin and patriotic persistence which generally brings together thoso whose cradles or parent's cradles were rocked on the bleak eastern shores. It will bring them together a week hence in this city and we are glad to know that a prelim-inary meeting is to be held in tho fed-eral court house tomorrow at which men and women may bo present to dis-cuss the format ion of a permanent New Kngland society in this city. The more such societies' we have here tho better for us, for their moral and iutolle ctual influence is marked. Tho Charity Ball to be given Monday evening.

Still, the Indians are in no hurry. ' No revelation made in connecticn with the third party movement can sur-prise anyone who has watched the secret influences at work in the Ocala convention. I'kof. Vihchow, the noted fierman niicroscopist, is not enthusiastic over Koch's consumjition cure. There are hosts of people who will take Virchow's opinion before Koch's. TheNcwYoi'ic World publishes a list of Americans w ho nre worth or more. There are no Ttah peojdc anions them, though we have a number traveling fast toward that goal, Tiikhk is but little improvement in tho clearance record for the past week, but it will be noticed that Salt Lake City is more than holding her own. As usual, Galveston is again at the head of gains. The Omaha Hoe pokes fun at the proposition to build a railroad from Seattle to St. Louis by way of Boise City. The lice has had a great deal of experience In paper railroads, but necessity may demand this particular one to niatontlie some day. The patronising air with which the eastern press discusses tho silver ques-tion is almost ludicrous. Thus the Boston Ueaald concludes a lengthy dis-sertation on the currency with the pre-diction that Senator 11 limb's silver view would enevitably lead the coun-try to widespread financial losses. As if these had not been incurred before Plumb's views were embodied iu any legislation. It is just a year since the grip made its appearance in this country, and the deaths resulting therefrom mounted up to tho tens of thousands. Reports of the return of tho dread malady are coming in from various quarters, though they are probably begotten of fear rather than of trouble. We can better afford to observe the anniversary in tho absence than in the presence of la grippe and hope that some Pasteur or Koch may enlighten us of its origin and progress. It was to be rxpcclod, ami wo are thureforc not Biirpri.sed to road ia nn eafteru oxelinngu that tlio revival of a thrilling interest in the Indians has brought upon tho east a new delugo of frontier literature. Once more tho boy who does chores for his board on a ('onneetieut farm trembles behind the barn as ho reads thu biood-curdlin- ad-ventures of "ltig Hooted Hill, the Indian Killer of the Dakota," or peruses the Alunchuusen-lik- exploits of "The Demon Scout." Once raoro the city youth aged eight, after readiug "The .Scalp Hunter; or Life Among the Sioux," starts on foot for the west with a silver dollar and a brass-mounte- re-volver in his pocket, and bringi up in a Jersey village, whore the avenging hand of his angry parent smites him upon tho most salient portion of his anatomy. And once more the sleek old gentleman in spectacles, who writes these alluring romances "out of his head," for he has never been farther from home than Hoboken. smiles as he JiDgles the gold iu his pockets. |
