G AIJIIIELS EXPERIMENT GABRIELS experiment, result, has Leon thoroughly si.'t'-t- l liv many lea riled ami scientific societies. Indeed, I beII. withitsex-(rnordiimr- y lieve the vvliolt scientific world lias at last been forced to net ept it if not to understand the facts in connection with it. It is not bo, however, with the outside world the lay public; exaggerated accounts have found their way into the daily papers; rapacious contributors to weekly light literature have eagerly seized upon the weird truth to build upon it a towerof sensational fiction; writers of leading articles totally ignorant o' the true story have gone solar as to accuse those directly concerned of willful fraud. To those who have known Dr. Gabriel, and enjoyed his friendship; to those who have been his fellow workers in science and have learned to appreciate his genius, these misun. derstandings, these riuueulous exag gerat ions are especially painful. It is, then, under such circumstances that I have been requested to write dearly, and as far ns possible withoutthe use of scientific terms, all that is known of this remarkable experiment. I)r. Gabriel has been well known in medical circles as the rising oculist of St. Joseph's Hospital. His efforts have largely added to the literature of his special subject. llis investigation and experiments in optics and the surgery ot the eye have placed him in the front rank of his profession. And have secured tor him a lasting reputution. Our acquaintance, 1 regret to say, was not extensive, occasionally we have met at the house of Ids colleague. Dr. Henson, sometimes in the hunting field, and rarely in society. There is no necessity to describe his personal appearance; sulficeit to say tlmt it needed but n glance to assure one that lie was a man ofkeen intellect and a gentleman, llisinan-ner- , always courteous, was somele what too reserved to please most people, though among his intimate friends this reserve was found to cover a mine of humor and good nature. From Dr. Henson I have learned much concerning theoculist'sprivnte life, his work at the hospital, his inventions und experiments, and the esteem iri which he was held by his colleagues. A little more than a year ago Dr. Gabriel married tiie beautiful daughter of a celebrated artist, a girl who, without being in tiie least degree a had received a far higher education than most Englishwomen. She interested herself greatly in her husband's studies ami bv her artistic abilities was enabled to be of considerable service to him in preparing drawings to illustrate his exeat work on the Eye. Much of her time was spent in such useful labor. No wonder, then, these two were more united than the majority of people. Although Mrs. Gabriel's beauty was of sudi a high order ns to have made it an easy matter for to reign as a leading star in society, societys prizes had no tempt.it ions for her. Entirely devoted to her husband and ids work, her happiness was perfect. Truly Dr. Gabriel was a fortunate man to have won such a companion in toil anil recreation! Hat their They had happiness was short-livebeen married but one year one year of unbroken glndnss when thosum-me- r session having passed. Dr. Gabriel put science and practice entirely nwav, and prepared to spend Ilia month's vacation in Alpine climbing. His wile never hesitated to share his toilsome pleasure; strong and robust, it was just the exercise most fascinating to her energetic nature. The story of her fate is a shot t one. One morning the daily papers contained n short account of another frightful accident in tlm Alps. Mrs. Gabriel and a guide were killed by a mass oflalliug rock. Dr. Gabriel, though much initired, recovered. On his return to England he gave up all proft ssional work. A ghastly change hnd taken place. In his haggard face and gray hair, few could recognize the great oculist who had leen the picture of strong and energetic manhood. His coilengues and tel low professors endeavored to persuade ldm to return to his practice and hospital work; but in vain, lie would see but few friends, and for some time Dr. Benson oulv was ad- blue-stockin- g, i 1 1 dream-pictur- y school-fello- 1 1 ab-seii- 1 1 1 j I ! n n rea-p!i- k ) 1 1 Has not one of our most celebrated living naturalists proved by his experiments upon ants that these insects are clearly sensitive to rays beyond the violet? What they see is probably a color perfectly inconc to us. It is not possible that ghost-seer- s the may be these with sensitive retina to gifted ultra rays! Would not this theory account for many remarkable cases of persons beholding apparitions, ami in which circumstantial evidence seems to point to the honesty of those visited? Because we can not as yet understand these phenomena we call them delusion. Must it ever be beyond the power ot science to supply witli a means of increasing our sense of sight in this direction? Such were the questions suggested by the splash of a tiny goldfish! To answer them ina practical form was the task 1 now set myself. I determined to carry out an elaborate series of experiments upon the visual apparatus of fish; taking into consideration the changes light must undergo in passing through the refracting media of the curved glass ol the aquarium and the bubbling water it contained. My goal was to see the unseen to construct an apparatus which should enable tin human eye to perceive the ultra rays. 'Whether 1 succeeded or not can he proved only upon the disecting table, lerhaps. alter all, I am mad, and the phenomena which 1 am about to relate are but hallucinations of a morbid mind. I do not intend to describe in detail the progress of this novel study, nor to disclose the various discoveries which enabled me to succeed after m my weary failures. The startling and altogether unsuspected consequences ofiny success compel me to believe that I have overstepped the moral hounds of science, and that I should be increasing tnv guilt were I to enable others to follow in my path. It must be sufficient for me to say that the medium I constructed through which I was to behold t lie dead was, to all appearances, an arrangement of colored lenses. It was not long before I had an opportunity of testing my discovery. One night 1 awoke with the consciousness that my w ife was present. 1 even knew that she was bending over me. I could almost imagine her breath upon mv cheek. My optical apparatus lay oil the tn-- ! ble within easy reach witli a palpi-- i tating heart I placed I it before my eyes. For a moment was dazzled by a brilliant flash of light; then, clothed in indescribable colors. I beheld the face of my dear wife. To give the very faintest idea of these mar-velous hues is utterly impossible, They could no more be imagined than one could conceive a new sense, Nothing in our earthly experience can give the least notion oftheireLchai.t-in- g beauty. Yet tho face did not ap- pear unnatural; on the contrary, it seemed perfectly real and substantial. It was my beautiful wife transcen-dentally beautiful. Impulsively I sprang toward her, throwing aside the lenses in my ecstancy. They fell upon the floor shivered to afewms. Yet the brilliant image remained be-fore me in all its loveliness. In the excitement of the moment this did not seem strange. I was ill a semide- lirium. How long I continued in this ecstatic state I cannot tell. I re-- , member beingaroused by the opening of the bedroom door, and the voice of mv valet informing me tlmt it was time to arise. 1 turned in the direction of tiie sound, but could see notli-- i nig except my wifes features. I did not for a momenr susnec t the truth. 1 believed my sight was temporarily impaired, as is naturally the case aft-- , tr gazing at an extremely bright ob- ject. But before long awoke to the fact tlmt I was blind lo everything but my wifes image. This remained liormnnently before nu, hut not in its original hues still more beautiful tints gradually eclipsed the others, probably their complimentary colors. This final apparition lias never left me. Whether my lids are closed or open, my wife is always before my eyes. At times I feel her presence, but her voice is dumb forever, It had never occurred to me during the time I was elaborating my experiment that the ultra rays might have an injurious effect upon the retina. I now believe that these rays of unusual light have prod need "a pathological change in this membrane. It is for those who conduct the examination of my remains to prove by actual demonstration the truth of iny storv. Dr. Denson laid the paper on the table. Some time elapsed before the impressive silence was broken. Endi one present remained absorbed in reflection upon these extraordinary revelations. At last it was suggested tlmt the ghastly object oi the meeting should be carried out. This is not the place for me to describe the details of the examination. It is enough to say that as Dr. Gabriel had anticipated, in apart of the retinal membrane of both eyes, what is known ns the visual purple was found to be permanently bleached, forming two optograms or natural (?) photographs, which clearly defined the outline of a beautiful bead. These optograms were immediately enlarged by photography. The two it ment. j i AS Dr. Gabriel's death remains .vuted b as found at th, iiire.n animation which could in anv talltv explain it. terv.
