vS- Sf i fe rS r'- W- 5 wr i JL1 Vp at j' i. i i at Vi SELF YPNQSIS THE SECRET vQF MODERN STORY WRITING. Morgan Robertson Tells His Experience. IT appears that. Morgan Robertson.

wno writes sea. toriea ratter well and haa latterly taken. the submarine for. his' pecuHar province la a person notions moreover. These notions deal liomewhat with the manner or' writing stories but more with the effect or story writing upon the story writer- as to which Mr.

Robertson has a distinct theory founded as he says. upon his own experience. In brief. thinks madness lies that ways. and that art assiduous contributor to' the magatnea ha all he can do to keep himself measurably sane.

According to' Mr. Robertson the state of the story writer to the fever of Invention Is one 0f self and there' 1 always a. tendency for this hypnotic etatI to be come. chronic It la good. for the stories.

but bad for the man. It Indicates a tired brain and therefore one of th antidotes ts food. Mr. Robertson himself eats Phosphates In large quantities. The ordinary for men he says was designed by nature for the support of the non tatetlectual animal only.

It does notfpro- V1de the brain worker with what he needs to keep his mental machinery bright and Wen oiled. This. however incidentally. Robertson who was born In Oswego In 1S8L. was an able seaman before he was rightly a man and first mate at the age.

of twenty-one. Now he camps In a little den' a sort of combined ships cabin and studio-In West Twenty-fourth street. with bookcases and canary birds and a typewriting machine and a phone and a. gas stove and a. refrigerator and ahuge bath tub.

an scientifically' fitted In. Upon the walls which axe red. ate pictures and illustrations from the authors stories and all sorts of Intricate nautical knots hang about. seeming to be attached to rigging th purpose of which Is not always apparent. In this place Mr.

Robertson spins hla a yarns. He has' a home and a wife on Washington. Heights' by pie way of refuge when the fever of composition cools. The. other day- he lay horizontal upon the couch In his en with.

a long cherry pipe between hla teeth. A Visitor entering. he rose long enough to extend the proper hospitalities then re. umed his previous attitude. He- Is a.

little short chubby man. very bald and very mighty about the chest. Don't Make He. was asked It he 'didn't happen to have some special Ideas to proclaim on the endless question of the making of stories how when and what to make of era. "Don't make em he said concisely and having paid so much- tribute to the higher wisdom.

proceeded When I was a boy my father found me a. place or a ship to keep me from running away and finding a worse place for mi elf on come other ship. I served a long tlmeiefore the mast and during that service got kicked and. cuffed into roe such deep respect for authority that I can never meet a big brute of a second mate to this day never meet anything that Is labeled ships officer but I want to say to him. Aye sir.

and stand around for him. I got to be mate myself but the habit had got ground into me long before that and It sticks. And I was not. naturally too respectful or authority either. Even.

now after twenty years away from the sea. as soon step on a ship I feel abject. I cringe before anybody with the voice of command. I tried to show a party of friends over my first ship once. She was lying at.

the Atlantic docks. and. we were a most elegantly arrayed party- silk hats white ties frock coats. I felt very Jaunty till I got aboard. There was nobody on her but the skips husband.

a husky old fellow with a seaweed' beard i My courage oozed out at the sight of him. I asked very meekly It we might look at the ship. He gave a sort of contemptuous I assent and. I steered the others around but wasn't fit to talk to em and explain. things which I had rather figured on i doing in some style.

The- ship and the ships husband reduced me to. the mental condition of common seaman as long as. I was aboard. As a. matter of fact it was several days before I got back my self-respect.

Wore Diamonds Once. Mr. Robertson explained that he was a diamond setter In. those days. and wore diamonds himself.

besides other splendor of raiment. When I quit the sea. he said aster ten years of it a sailor learns to do a miscellaneous lot of things they' have to done aboard' ship and there's nobody else to do em and I used to be handy enough with a a phrenologist told me I had a head for mechanics. He was kind enough to say I could do anything In. that line from tinkering pans to buydlng bridges.

As there didn't seem to be any building to do not for me I learned the trade of watchmaker. I tramped about from one Jersey town to another mending clocks. By degrees I rose in the profession and got to be a diamond setter. as you've seen but in my clock mending days I met queer people. I used to fraternize with organ grinders.

feel a nearer kinship to organ grinders cow that I'm a story writer and no long- er noonoo wun sucn vagrants in the neon. When I was tinkering" with watches and clocks I was doing something useful. As a story writer I seen to stand level with the organ grinder. I'm no better than those old tramps troubadours I believe you call em that used. to skulk around from place to place and for a bite to eat and a.

sip to drink and a seat in the corner by the. fire in the houses of their betters. To be sure we do use a typewriter Instead of a harp and I doubt our singing voices are out of order but the principle is the same. Mr. Robertson inclined his head respectfully toward the typewriting machine In the corner and refilled his pipe.

Then' he resumed My notion of story writing- Is that It Is a sort of self-hypnosis. You've got to get hypnotized by your Idea before you can get enough above yourself to write anything at all worth printing and always the danger in that sort of thing of going too far going so far you cant get back. I got middling tar myself before I saw where I was going and pulled up that is. I stopped work and took brain food. I was then In fine trim.

I am confident to go stark mad. I wrote one story in that condition of precarious sanity. It was called Sinful Peck. I used to walk up and down this room in a sort of ecstasy. then hammer out a sentence.

then walk again furiously. tin I found I was butting Into the furniture at both ends barking my shins and yawing this way and that like a rudderless ship. I wasn't drunk either. That went on for several days I believe. un my wife got alarmed at my continued absence and came down to see what was up.

She found me cruising abouthere In the aimless fashion I have' described. Here says she. producing- money. get out of this and go to the. coontry.

I had a notion this was coming. and laid by for It accordingly. Being In a state entirely hypnotic I naturally dttt exactly what I was told. I didn't at all know why 1 did It. or see any reason for It my reason- Ing faculties werp not at work.

But I went and by. going no doubt' saved life and reason. For I had itfixed in my bead that I must finish that story. and barring the providential Interposition of. the wife was going mad In the process.

Slave to Suggestion That matter of my docility Ingoing to the country at my wiles bidding pursued the ex-able seaman after ones more refilling his pipe. leads to a jllsouasjon of one of the most conspicuous effects of story writing on the mind of the writer. You get to such a state or I got to such A state from dreaming. out stories that you lose control or your. mental steering gear.

You reacha condition where you are a bond slave to. tha power of sug gestion coming from yourself and ready to knock wider to anybody who chooses to give you orders Just as I feel like doing to any sort of ruffian in the shape of a ships officer. For Instance. mylandlord and I have different theories about the rent. His 4dea Is to have it paid on the the monthI say Til pay It when I please.

I have rather made a habit of paying when I please but lat. terly I had paid for several successive months promptly on tha first. Thcn lt happened I let the third come around without paying. A. friend of mine was staying In this placeat the time.

He slept here and came and went as the notion took him. On the third la ques. Uon I came in. here and did not find my. friend.

However. I did find upon my desk a. bit of paper with a message like this Call up xyz Gramxnercy. That is my landlords phone umber. I wa angry.

I said to myself Id be most particularly damned If I called up anything. I threw" the message haughtily upon the floor and sat down to work. I couldn't worker but I made a bluff at It alt day and till late at night. Thee J. wnt to.

bed but couldn't sleep. Igot up in the morning and still couldn't work So I called up- xyz xyzGraniercy What I said was that Id be around presently with the money that Is as soon as I got some money I was expecting. Then I set to work and everything went smoothly as you please. All" suggestion. Xyz Orainercy had me by.

the hair. I wasn't myself-I I wasn't master of my own will till I had satisfied xyz Grammercy. Just Had to Walk the Dog. Again ray wife has a fine collie dog up-town. Its a handsome dog.

but I don't like dogs. My wife does. She has told me several times that I ought to take. the dog for afternoon walks. I've said Id walk the dog If she thought it necessary but that I didn't enjoy it.

I made it very clear that I was opposed to having her put walking the dog on' the programme of my habitual relaxations Now the other day. I got a note from my wife. The note dealt with sundry domestic matters of no moment in the present discussion. But at the end she wrote It you are not doing anything when you get this. come up and walk the dog' Now I wasn't doing anything at the minute that Is I wasn't actually pounding the typewriter machine I was trylijg to think out.

or rather dream out. a story I' begun. I know of course my wife's definition of work. Under that definition- I was. not doing anything.

So' I thought I must go and walk the dog. I took my hat and went seven miles by train up to Washington weights just to walk that dog. I found my wife at hbzne. She said she was Joking about the dog. I came back angry with myself and a little with her though It wasn't her fault.

The fault was in me. I simply had to obey the suggestion. This slavery to suggestion reached such a point that if I were walking along Broadway in all sorts of a hurry and an acquaintance spoke to me and said' Stand by Id stand by and there Id sticktill be told roe to go. I couldn't getUnder way israin myself. I was growing to be a common bore people began to avoid me like the plague.

Usually when people do that sort of thing. you put em down for soft fools. I am not naturally soft and I wasn't born a tool. rye been something of a man among men In the days before I was a story writer else I couldn't have been a first mate before I was twenty- one. So when I had lucid moments and caught myself at such tricks I knew something was wrong.

I put It down to fa tigued brain atrophied will power due to overdriving machinery I hadn't used at all before I entered my' present cycle of existence. My first cycle was seafaring in the second I was a mechanic. In neither of them did I use my brain overmuch. In 1 this present cycle I'm using my brain i after a peculiarly exhausting fashion I'm a story writer. Already I grow tired.

I do not know what the next turn of the wheel will bring. This. by the way. What I'm getting at Is that the state of mind I've been Illustrating Is nothing more or less than the self-hypnosis that comes of story writing and the necessary preliminary process of story dreaming. For you must dream your stories or at least I must dream My Idea Is that of the people who try It on only some few keep themselves approximately sane the rest end in the mad house.

As to dreaming stories My own practice Is about this Over night I think hard on a story. I go to bed full of It. In the morning I try to take as long a time as possible to' wake up to remain In a state halt way be. tween neither truly sleeping. nor really waking.

In such an Intermediate and in determinate condition what I take to be the same thing in me that the psyciolo. gists call subliminal consciousness. gets In touch with the matter of the story as ray brain fully wake would never get. In touch with It. I do not believe In haunt- Ing spirits.

lingering ghosts of the dead holding communication with the living. but I amconvlnced that In the particular state of mind I'm talking about I do somehow by some sort of telepathic pro. cess. catch something from living non- present persons whose minds are busy with the same idea. His Latest Obsession.

For instance my head has lately been full of submarines. I've studied submarines thoroughly in order to make stories about them. and. being of a mechanical turn and the sea still holding me pretty hard. I've got Interested in submarines for themselves.

So I've grot obsessed wth an idea to Invent a periscope. That as you know. Is' the tube and series of lenses which enable the commander of a submarine while the boat is under water to take a view of the encompassing seascape and discover the near presence of the enemy. The trouble with the periscope at present. is that it can only look In one direction at once.

It does not gather In' the whole horizon Into one picture. You have to revolve the machine this way and that. Now the idea which has me by the hair Is that of inventing this most desirable around periscope. and It has me gripped so strongly that I'm convinced some of those submarine inventor fellows are busy day and night with the same idea. By dint of dwelling upon submarines I have caught the obsession telepathlcauy.

I was so sureof the thing that I started a letter just now to Holland's representative to inquire if Holland wasn't inventing some such pen. scope. So when Joseph Conrad dreams about a haunted. blind devil of a sea captain holding madly to his job and blundering about with his ship In the Malay seas he catches somehow across the void of space the echo of the very wracked feelings of men who are living somewhere somewhat the' same horror that Conrad is dreaming. Whence it comes that as you read the yarn he writes out of the stuff lie has dreamed it grips you by the.

vitals. In the same way Kipling dreams stories and all the others dream stories that none of them could do wide awake. They are- hypnotized by the men and women who are suffering the reality though they may notknow at all who these men and worn- en are. So Victor Hugo got the stuff for his tales of horror and so de- all who do any creative work get their stuff' or some of it. And each and every one risks losing hisIndividuality In the pro.

cess. Ordinary mechanical brain work- adding up figures or composing English- tires the brain to tie sure but does not hypnotize It as creative work does doe uncouple It. as it were from your own Identity. Ghosts of the Dead Barred. Mr.

Robertson's side remarks on ghosts seemed to put needless bounds to a theory' so magnificent. His Interlocutor' tried set. the expounder of the theory to admit. ghosts Into the goodly company of his In spjraUons. He suggested that Mr Maurice Hewlett lately.

In his Queens had professedly in re-creating' his character of Mary Queen of Scots sought to soak himself In the ldea of Jier till In. a fashion he got Into the heart of the. worn- 1 an. and sowrote of her from the vantage ground as It tv ere of her own Inner consciousness. The process employed by Mr.

Hewlett and wlthsuchadmltted success seemed though- Hewlett makes nrf mention of dreams to answer perfectly Jo that of Mr Robertson ave In the particular that unlucky Mary Stuart. has been dead these hundredsVot years and Mr. Robertson had barred ghosts. He listened to the plea. 1 don't pretend to say.

he replied that the' people are wrong who' think that a thing once alive lives always ven I after the change called. death. I only say that my own experience or this. curious subconscious so-called telepathic source of Information or rather of feelings of which one has had no actualexperience extends only to what may well be credited to such as are our contemporaries in the. flesh.

As to the matter of dead and gone Mary of Scotland there must be Marie enough or women enough like Mary living now. Well suppose for the sake of argument that Mr. Hewlett caught his sense of the reality from these modern Marys and put It into the historic lady he had taken as his subject. The nature of men and women has not changed. and things as strange as horrid.

as Bloody and as passionate as any of those we read about are going on now with variations of detail to be sure but variations which are not. essential. Thus Mr. Robertson heldat once to his theory and to his exclusion of the lingering spirits of dead heroes and heroines from a personal part In the writing of modern stories purporting to deal with heir character and fortunes. If you would personally and telepathically inspire your own written story you must hypnotize some author in your lifetime.

THE WEEKS PLAY BILLS First Production of Ades The College Widows at the Columbia. To-morrow night the eagerly-awaited production of George Ades latest comedy. The College Widow will be made by Henry W. Savage. at the Columbia.

So much has already been written about this comedy that little remains to be added.
