THE FIELD OF ADVENTURE
THRILLING INCIDENTS AND DAR.
ING DEEDS ON LAND AND SEA.
Most Unique Battle of the War
Fight With a Marine Monster-A
Thwarted Crime, Etc.
N the winter of 1862-3 a part of
the Confederate army was in win
ter quarters near the town of
Dalton, in the northern part of
Georgia. The famous Orphan Brigade
of Kentucky, noted for its bravery
and daring in battle, 'was encamped
near a brigade of Tennessee troops.
The Kent:ickians were conmanded by
General Joseph H. Lewis, now on the
bench of the Court of Appeals, and
the gallant Pat Cle-ourne, who after
ward fell fighting bravely at Frank
lin, Tenn.
The two brigades mingled constant
ly, and the tedium of e.iup life was
relieved by many gay pranks and
harmless larks among the :.oldier
boys.
One day the troops were treated to
a genuine snow storm-a sight very
rare in that part of the country, but
which recalled their far away homes
very vividly to the soldiers from the
Middle States. A narty of Tennessee
soldiers had been paying a visit to
some of their Kentucky comrades, an,
as they took their departure their late
hosts in a spirit of sport threw seine
snowballs after them; they responded
promptly, and a lively contest ensued,
each party pelting the other with the
white missiles.
The Tennesseeans retreated it first,
but, being re-enforce, returned to the
attack. Seine Georgians, who now
learned to make snowballs for the
first time, also joine:l their side. The.
assailed the Kentuckians so fircely
that the latter, outnumbered and
blinde.l by the feath2rv balls, were
ariven from their position and their
barracks and colors were seized by the
enemy.
At~ this juncture General Lewis
stepped out of his tent, and was also
greeted with a volley of snowballs and
a derisive cheer. Seeing ho vmatters
stood he sprang upon his horse, or
dered out his oflicers and men and al
vanced with his entire brigade to re
gain their lost honors.
The Tennesseeans and Georgians
called on their comrades for aid, and
both sides responded with the same
eagerness and promptness which
would have been dispayed at the satd
den attick of a Federal army. Tn a
few moments SO)O men and o icers
were drawn ap i lbattle array, their
crais full of snowballs, and amid
shouts of laughter and loud cheers the
the fight waged furiously.
The officers rode among the men
encouraging them and bravely expos
ing themselves to the siower of white
balls, which soon made the soldiers
look like sno:Y men. If an officer was
knocked on his hors, a private in
mediately tookC his place and rallica

But wwy, inch by inch, the valiant
Ken tuckians drove their opponents
back and recaptured t'.eir quarters
and colors. They then formed in a
compact body, with freshly gathered
am-munition and charged upon the
spot where General Clebourne was
se:ated on his horse, gayly cheering
his men and1 giving instructions to his
aides. Time after time the Keu
tuckians d-ashed themselves against
the wall of Tennesseeans, but were
driven back before the rain of balls
and forced to retreat. The two bodies
of men swayed back and forth all the
afternoon without either side gaining
a victory. Night finally came and the
darkness ended the bloodless, but one
of the most unusuil -and fiercest,
attles ever fought. - Louisville

Fight With a 3Iarine 3Monster.
The Italian settlement at the foot
of Franklin street, Oakland. Cal., was
agitated the other morning by the
capture of a monster of the deep. An
Italian fisherman gave battle to the
queer fish, andi he says he will iong~
remember the encounter. The cap
tre was made near Goat Islaud in
the morning. It took several hours
to land the fish, and during ;he con
test two boats were nearly wrecke:1.
The Itdlians call the monster a "ra'
fish," because it has somewhat the ap*
pearance of a rat. The iush weigiin
'W> pounds and measures eleven feel
from the tip of the nose to the end of
the tail. 'The tail itself, which was
ued by the fish as a means of defense,
meisured six feet in length. The
fishermen claim that this is the fir.st
"rat fish" ever captured in the Bay of
Sa Franc isco.
The story of the battle was told by
Jamaes Iag~oria. He employs the li-sh
ermnen to go out every morning and
fih for h in. "There is one old man
in my employ," said Lagorio, "who
seems to have particularly bad luck in
catching treaks. Several days ago he
caught a man-eater while fishing near
Goat Island and had an exciting en
counter. This morning the same old
fisherman had his lines out near Goat
Island when he captured. the rat fish.
He was alone at tne time, and was
somewhat excited when the monster
came to the surface of the water and
made st:aight; for his little boat, lash

A Thwarted Crime.
An Indian paper tells a curious tale.
A rich lady, with her two children,
both infants, was going, it is said, in
her own "ekka" from Ramnagar to a
place in the centre of the Bar tract.
The driver was a trustworthy servant
of the family, and it was for this rea
son that the lady had not divested
herself of the ornaments sha usually
wore. Bnt the sight of the jewels was
too much for him, and at an excep
tionally lonely spot in that lonely
country he suddenly asked his mis
tress to hand him her valuables. On
her suspecting his real designs and
hesitating, the miscreant showed him
self in his real colors, and made her
and her little ones, who could hardly
toddle about, get down. The horriole
thought that was working in his brain,
that of hiding his crime by means. of
murder, had given his face a sardonic
look, which made the poor woman
tremble.
Then the fierd bound her, hand and
foot, and informed her that be would
first kill her children and then do her
to death. By her earnest autreaties
she prevailed over him to begin with
her first. He had an axe in his hi-ntd,
with which he aimed a blow at her,
but the head being loose, it flew away
and fell a few paces ouT, the hiandle
only remaining in his grasp. H3eo
steeped into the grass to look for it
and disappeared behind a mound. She
waited her certain doom with all her
nerves on the strain. She gradaily
fell into a swoou, and when she came
round the first thing she saw was her
husband bending o,nr her and her ba
bies crying and tuggin at her
clothes.
After she had left;, a nameless nneas
iRees seized her inshand. lie could
not reason away his vague fear, try*
as he would, and at last he mo:nted
his horse and followed the "ekka." He
had procee:ed but a few ni,les when

A NEW CURATIVE POWER,'
HYPNOTISM A POTENT REMEDY
FOR DISEASES.
The Fact Demonstrated Before the
New York Academy of Medicine
-A Doctor's Experiment.
T HE New York Academy of
Medicine, Section of Neuro
logy, is deeply interested in
the experiments being con
ducted by J. Arthur Booth to demon
strate the value of hypnotism in the
cure of disease. Dr. Booth's work,
say the New York Recorder, has
been done in his private practico
among patients of his own or those
which have been sent to him by other
physicians. Dr. Booth. at a meeting
of the Academy of Medicine on Satur
day evening, gave a practical demon
stration of his methods of applying
the hypnotic treatment. He was ac
companied by a very pretty young
woman, a meminer of a well-known
family, who had consented to act as a
Sul)jcct for experiment before the mein
hers of the Academy. She had been
Dr. Booth's patient, and had been
cured of ; very aunoying maldy by
hypnotism. The t,-hnical name of
the disea e is myidriasis, which is a
morbid dilation of the pupil. It was
confined largely to her right eye at
first, but when the right eye was im
proved the disease extended to the
left eye, and the treatment was given
regularly until both eves were re
stored taa normal condition.
The young woman seemed to be
greatly amused at the interest taken
in her. Dr. Bootb. after explaining
the nature of her case, stepped in
front of the woman and held a bright
key several feet from her eyes. He
directed her to fix her fgaze on the
key, and slowly moved toward her. A
calm, lleaceful expression cam1e upon
her face in less than a rinute', and the
key was broueht so close to her eyes
that tbey beeame crossed. Dr. Booth
passed his left hand gcntl. across her
forehead several times, talking to her
quietly, and her head slowly drooped
until it nearly touched her loft shoul
der. Her bre :thiag b:ecame heavy, al
if she were in a deep slumber. She
was examined by the physicians near
he:, and they were all satisfied that
she was sleepinz and under the con
trol of Dr. Borth.
The operator said the woman was
then in the first stage o? the hypnotic
sleep, and in the condition where she
could be influencad by the suggeStions
which are used in the place of drugs
to cure disease. He raised her arn',
and at his suggestion it be:-ame rigid.
She could not move it. Dr. Namm::ck,
who was inclined to be a bit skeptical
and iossesses more than aferage
strength, found that it requi:.ed the
exercise oZ all his power to :>wer the
arm to the womau's side. - When he
released it it fi,w ul as-if it were on a
sprinf i en r. Booth fold the
grm that her arm was limp and
lifeless and she could not raise it. Her
arm fell to her side. and it seemed to
be withont feeling.
Dr. Booth then e::piamned that the
practical cure of disease was made in
the same way as the suggestions in re
lation to the ccnditiou of her arm.
The patients were told v:hile in. a
hypnotic spell that they did not have
the disease from which they were suf
fering, and upon being rest.ore:1 to a
normal condition the disease (if the
patient is sensitive to iine lhy notic
power) disappears.
.Dr. Booth has had laLrge e:<perience
with patients suferi~ng from various
disorders due to bysteria. Hysteria,
according to Dr. Booth, is a cen dition
of the general nervous syse:n which
renders it capable of siuluating most
local diseases, comelicating them in
their progress and modiing them in
their usual phLenomneni:.
Dr. Booth has treated uive cases o
hysteria, four women and one man,
which induced the patients to) s'.imu
late blindness in one or both eyes.
They were all put under the maneace
of hypnotism by Dr. Booth from si:<
to twelve times, and fotof them were
completely cured simp~ly by hypnotic
.sggestion. They were told that
nothing was the matter with taeir
eyes, and when their mtinc wereca*a
be of appreciating their co)nditionl
they were cured. While unldergoinig
the hypnotic treatment for inc eyes,
oue of the patients got rid of a tape
worm. Hypnotism failed to cure one
of the patients for the reason that she
had been so long under the mental
impression that she was blind that the
disease was actually estab lished .
"A great many of us," said D)r.
Booth, "aro prone to loou upon
hynotism as eithei belonging to the
dcinain of qunackery, or believing ihat
it requires acme special power, hesi
tae to take advantage of this methodJ
of treatment. The time has now
passed for any such argu ment. and any
physician who wil take the troubic
to study the subject will obtain satis
factory results in certain cases. Wie
possess in suggestive therapeutics an
importanL aid in the treatmnact or cer
tain morbid conditions, but just how
valuable this may be cannot be osti
mated until it is more generally used
and the results reported. Instead of
waiting and trying other methods
first, I would recommeud the trial by
hypnotism. The use of hypnotism by
the intelligcnt physician, in the cure
o certain morbid conditions, does not
prouce any bad effects, notwithshand
in reports to the contrary."

The Emperor's Surprise.
The German Emperor is a master of
little surprises quite other than those
which occasionally fetch his troops out
of bed in the middle of the night when
they least expect it:. While at Low

afforded by the absence of Lord Lons
dale to unpack a very fine inarble
bust of himself and put it in position,
screened by the leaves o: a large palm.

Lord Lonsdalo was highly delighte:
