Gossip In political circle this morning was centered on the fligths of oratory In dulged in by the city bosses, Flinn and Magee, at the meeting of the republican city executive committee, last night, and the reform resolutions adopted by that body. Some of the Quay men are Indignant over the utterances of the rlngsters, but the majority of them merely look with ridicule on the whole proceeding, and say It is only another case of rattles. They assert that the ring realizes that it Is fast, losing its hold on the county organlflation and in plunging about for something to keep up their spirits and prevent them from sinking into eternal political obllv- Ion they have struck on the plan of vllll- fylng and abusing the honest and straightforward citizens, who have had courage enough to try to balk them In their corrupt schema to retain the balance of power in Allegheny county. A prominent representative of the Quay organization, in speaamg 01 uie meeting, this mornine. paid: "Wa huvB certalnlv nothtnar to expect in the way of aid from the members of the city executive committee as a body.

The majority of them are out for the ring ticket, but I am glad to note that we had! one representative mere, ana uiai no had enough coura.ee to tell theat honors We body of committeemen What he hniio-ht nf thnlr options He Onsnlv dlS- approved of their course and his was the onfv dissenting vote. Fllnn's speech was only a repetition of what he said at the last meeting 01 tne committee, no a-incr tn make a oersonal Issue between him self and Lieut. Gov. Lyon. I have always admired Senator Flinn, and have been disposed to give him credit rather than censure for ths manner in which he has built up a good nnvtnsr luminous bk a street contractor.

He is a level-headed business man, but I think he missed the mark when he sHruck out aa a champion and leader of the ring forces, ills auacK on tne iieuiBumn ernor was a most discreditable proceeding and totally unwarranted. It can accomplish no good for the ring ticket, but on the contrary will work an influence in favor of the Quay ticket. should change his tactics and rimrir A.mrt more reDutable scheme than that of abusing highly respected and honored public men as he has been doing. Good, honest warfare In a contest of this kind Is all right, but personal abuse is quite another thing. If the ring wants reform in tne county government, yij does It not pursue reputable honest methods of obtaining It? Hlght thinking cit izens will only look with scorn on sucn proceedings as tnose 01 last niqnie ineoi- sen Flinn la making a political acro bat out of himself," eaid another prominent Ouav man from Braddock.

is nnt rnTv a rinir master, but a whole snow In himself. It Is certainly laughable to note his change of base on the annexation question. I remember just after the Greater Pittsburg bill was passea was walking along Smilhfleld street near Sixth avenue when Flinn stepped oft a Du-quesne car. He hailed me and we walked on toward Fifth avenue together. 'We've srot you said ths sena tor.

'We've got a leadplpe cinch on this annexation business now and you people out there In Braddock have got to come into the 'Oh, we're In no hurry about it, sena tor, replied. 'it flnftun't Tnqk anv difference wheth er von am in a hurrv or replied Mr. Flinn. 'We will pull you in whenever we want you now. 'men wnn a smiie ot no- mirnnoe ho hurried on to his oillce.

"Now the whilom senator repudiates the whole annexation scheme and declares he does not want It. Oh, he's pretty cute, I cn tell you; but I think the Quay menw all understand him, and so do all the citizens of the outlying districts mat were included In his 'lead-pipe I believe the senator is Just as hot after annexation now ns he was when the bill was framed. It simply suits his purpose tn the present Issue to turn the annexation business upclde down for -a little while until he can nooawina tne pumic inn supporting his rotten reform measures and the ticket he and the gang have put Into the county field. President D. A.

Wilbert, of the repub. nnnn lBdB-nn of the Fifth legislative com mittee, and member of the republican city executive committee, In reply to Senator Fllnn's attack on him at last night's meeting, said: "Senator Flinn took occasion In his spnooh to make an attack on me as a member of the committee, and charges that I do not attend the meetings, und further says If I had proper regard for ordinary political decency I would resign from the committee on acocunt of not vot ing the republican ticket, "in reniv to the senator." continued Mr. Wllbert. fll wish to say that I think I have been about en regular an atetndont at the cltv committee meetings as the average member, and that my republicanism is and always has been known, and I inn tn.iov a thorough republican. 1 have never yet known of the honorable Senator Flinn maKing any pumic aeciarawnu mm he wished to part company with the would-be honorable senator of the Forty-third senatorial district, C.

L. Magee, be cause he hns heen Known to exercise nis powerful influence ajrainst the republican ticket nominated, which I wish to remind the Honorable Senator Flinn of his action was not only on an occasion of a local election, but on candidates for legislative and stnto offices for no other reason than that the nominations were not Of his choosing. When I hear of the honorable senator calling on the said boss to withdraw from bis company and active Inter est In the republican party, men can on pie tor my resignation rroin me uuy cum-mittee. and will consider the matter." Richard Ouav returned thi3 morning from Washington, D. where he has been in conterence wnn eenator vuay for several days past.

He was seen ot hia office this morning by a Press representative, and in answer to a query, "Ve.q. I exrtect father will visit Pitts burg very soon. He may come the latter art or next ween, just now ne is bu uy he cannot get away. He will be here nn.miblv two or three days, not longer. as his business in Washington is piling up nn him an that ho cannot devote much of his personal time to the fight here.

Ho sems to be perfectly satisfied with the manner in which the campaign is being conducted. "Have you any Idea when the lexow committee will return to Pittsburg?" rrr.ortftr. "No. I hnve not," he replied. "I have heard nothing more about the committee-" After leaving Mr.

Quay's office the re- Dorter met a gentleman wno was in close communion with the lexow com mittee. Ke said that he did not expect the committtee here until sometime early In April. He gave as his reasons that several or tne memoers are now atneni on private business and that ft will be inconvenient for tjiem to pet together before April. The primaries will soon be on ani this win aetor tnem irom any ac tion this month. That they have not jriven up their Investigations her, however, is positive, for they have already discussed the time for returning.

Lieut. Gov. Lyon consented to talk this morning and made this rely to Senator Flinn attack: "The citadel cf strength of the Magee-Fllnn end of the hog combine." said he. "is the Alle-gheny courthouse, which these two gentlemen use and have used for TMrs nn an asvlnm for their cmmcilmen. ieglslators and friends.

This present contest for county oflVes is a struggle between the' bosses of Pittsburg and the people of the county. Mr. Funn would like to got ud a personal controversy with me. He and Mr. Magee would like to di vert attention from -the real issue to un a firht between McKinley and P.eed or McKinley and Quay, or to make anv sort or a controversy on any matter whatever, except the real Issue.

They hope by this moans to dodge the main question at Iseue that of political have always ten a republican, but I am not the issue. The people care What becomes of me, but they do 'propose to fikht fcr clean politics and for the honest administration of public It Is now snnouheed authoritatively that John' Eberhardt will not be mimed-as the ring candidate tn the Forty-fifth senatorial district gainst A. J. Barch-feld, but that, the man who will be slated Is the present incumbent. Senator Samuel Stefl.

This wilj be his fourth term, and there was some talk of putting him tin the -sliding board, but the leader believe that he is still the strongest man' in the district, and they realize hat they will need the very best material in. their ranks to-put up against Barch- Xsld.

The mounting of velvet to the height of rashlon has given additional rorce to the liking for furs, since fur and velvet combine so happily for winter toilets.

WARM'G TO BRIDES. Don't Try to PIeae Your Husband by Straightening t'p His Den. They had just returned from their honeymoon.

Lampton. The colonel had received a valentine. and as ha looked it over and read pretty verses he handed It to the writer. "From a lady?" smiled the writer. "'Yes, from my wife.

"Surely," said the writer, "no better valentine could be than that" The colonel took It again and held It In his hand tenderly. "When he and I were began. In a reminiscent way, "we went to a post in the far west, where as lieutenant, that was 30 year ago, I was stationed. Not far away wa a town of the class not uncommon at the time.

and chief among its well known charac ters and prominent cltl.eiia wa a man known aa 'Bug' Thornton. He was a bad man. and the bar keener In the leading hotel of the town. The landlord of the hotul had a daughter of 25 or thereabouts, who was by odds the best looking woman In town and a very nice girl, barring the fact that she wa In love with Thornton. "At first he was nattered by the favor In which he stood with the young woman, but her attentions In a few months wearied lilm, and he made her wildly jealous by devoting himself to the cashier of the uoiaen uon restaurant, a young nL-nmnn who owned a half interest In the business and was considered a good catch.

This occurred about valentine season, end when the day came around the landlord's daughter received a comlo valentine, setting forih, as those thing do, the delightful attractiveness of a Jealous woman. The accompanying verse was more galling than the picture, and the girl was frenzied by it. "It waa 110 unusual matter for Bug Thornton to have a scrap one or twict a Anv with characters who fre quented his saloon, and every now and theu he added a feature to the bill by shooting somebody or getting a shot himself, though up to that time escaping with slight wounds.

PSYCHO-THERAPEUTICS CHAIR Relatione of Hypnotism and Crime Prof. Parkyn Says That a Man' Trn Moral Xatnre Can Merer be Hypnotised A Rival to tho Gold Core Interest Awakened. A chair of psycho-theropeutice, or hypnotism, Is an Innovation In the curriculum ot the Illinois Medical college, at Chicago. The official recognition of hyp notism in medical colleges is common enough abroad, but Is new to this coun try. Dr.

Herbert A. Parkyn, recently of Minneapolis, fills the chair. Dr. Parkyn claims to have hynotlzed more persons than any physician in the country. He estimates the number of patients whom he has treated by hypnotism within the last two years at 1,200.

Dr. Parkyn is a native of Toronto and received a medical education at vjueen university. Kingston. Ont He afterward did postgraduate work at the McGlll Medical college, Montreal, and also at the Toronto university. Early in his course he became Intensely Interested in and made a special study of the psychology of attention and strove to develop Ills knowledge of the science of hypnotism throughout his entire course.

Dr. Par kyn determined to make a specialty of psycho-therapuutlos and at the cioue ot his college course practioed for several years In his native city of Toronto. In ls4 he went to Minneapolis, where he be came connected with the University of Minnesota. SB. HEBDZKT A.

FARKTTT. Dr. Parkyn entertains very pronounced opinions on the relations between hypnotism and crime: "That point has been abused most shamefully. It has been han dled by ignorance, misapprenension ana narrow minaeaness. 'mere is no closer relation between hypnotism and crime than thene is between the waking state ana crime, in ract, tne relation is exactly the same.

A man's true moral na ture can never be hypnotized. Natural criminals might be Incited to crime while nypnouzea, put try coma also ne in duced to commit the same act while In the waking state. A practical criminal susrrestlon Riven to a euro minded sub ject will oautse hi moral nature to so re volt at the critical time that he will ne thrown out of the hypnotlo condition into his objective senses. I know this to be true from hundreds of experiments which I have made personally, in tact, nave made this subject a special study. I have run down every sensational newspaper story bearing on the subject of hynotlsm and crime and have Invariably found it the work or some irresponsible correspondent The stories were barefaced lies as far as the Influence of hypnotism for evil was concernea.

1 1 carried on an exhaustive series of experiments in this line at St. Paul laet winter and came very near getting a severe thrashing from a printer to whom I suggested while he was in the hypnotic state that he assassinate a physician present and steal his watch. The same condlton of moral sleeplessness prevails in women aa wen as men. ir wlsned a crime committed, I would have to take a person who would do it while in possession of his objective senses, for I never could inuuee him to do otnerwise, even though he were to all appearances com-detelv under my control. The laws gov erning this science are like the rest of nature laws, as strict ana nana hs tne law of gravity, and they never fail.

When our Jurists study these laws for themselves the names of hypnotism and crime Will forever cease to be linked together." "What diseases have you found to be benefited by hypnotic treatment?" "Every physician who understands the mind uses the element of suggestion in his treatment more or lers. Personally I have used hypnotism with great success In all kinds of nervous troubles, Including epilepsy, stammering, St. Vitus' dance, hysteria, asthma, rheumatism, sciatica and neuralgia. I have controlled the headache of typhoid fever, and It la positively marvelous in ouring that dread of all dreads, a sick headache, for the fiatlent is taught to put himself to sleep nstantaneously. No matter how short this sleep, the result is wonderful.

I am also using hypnotism largely to control opium, cocaine and alcoholic Inebriety. A most profound state of anaesthesia can also be produced by hypnotism, and In this way many operations have been performed on patients who could not stand chloroform or ether." "Do you have any particular way of producing hypnotism?" "Oh. no. One must study the peculiarities of his patient first Soma means will succeed in one case and fail In another. There ere many ways of bringing on the state, but they all aim at the essential point to hold the attention closely and solely upon a single thought or thing.

Sometimes I have to work long and hard before I find the surest and quickest wiy to hypnotize a patient, and, again, I am likely to hit upon a plan that will get him in one minute. "The profession has been slow to recognize hypnotism in any form, hut it Is now being surely brought Into the prom inence In which It should stand. At the last meeting of the American medical association in Baltimore it was for the first time officially recognised In this country as a therapeutic agent When these staid and learned old practitioners who read papers at that gathering took up even Incidentally, it broke the ice of false conservatism, and the action of the Illinois medical college In establishing a chair of psycho-theraoeu- tlcs cannot he crlticisea ana is, according to the best judgment and conviction oi the faculty." He Wasn't Started Right. From the Chicago Press. "You are rich and talented." He nodded assent "Yet you do nothing worthy of your op portunities." He s'ghed.

"Have you no ambition for a great pub- 11c career?" I A look of despair crept Into hi eyes. "I had once," he said, brokenly, "but that dream was hattered by a fearful revelation my father made to me when I left college. It is hopeless hopeless." His friends sneered. "Some petty scandal in the family history, 1 suppose," he muttered Impatiently. "Worse worse than that." "Insanity In the family?" There was note of real alarm in his friend's voice as lie asked this question.

"No no. Wealth, breeding, brains count for nothing against fate. I can never have a great public career. I was not born In a log cabin. My parent always lived In a brick house." Mr.
