THE TRANSIT ORDINANCE IN HIH statement to Councils the Mayor declares emphatically 1 I resolved that If the 1814 drift had In that year been formulated as a basis ot negotiation for the equipment and ' operation of the clty-bullt lines, there was no apparent reason why It should net act' In a similar rapacity In 1016. 1 therefore Instructed my Director of Trsnalt, to lirlnr tho mi 4 draft down to date, so as to Include therein Ihe new linn. authorized by the DM ordinance. The 1)14 draft, ot course, provided also for any "additional lines" which might be constructed by the city. Tho bringing Torn Daly's Column skaV T (ante &3t J f iajslf ft 1 Jo-tLtJ If Did you ever tee o day , Breaking in f he Katt It It conderful to toy Quite tho very least 711 describe if 1 1 may , , And how Night decerned, TMt It how It happened I Woke In lime to tee the tkj Brighten through my window pane.

Then the leaves they danced and tpoke Quite Hka children just awoke down to date, therefore, consists In tho , aid noticed In the Bast writing of a formnt contract, based on that draft and departing from It In no essanttal particular. Wo commend tho Mayor most heartily for his abandonment of tho theory that the 1914 agreement 1"' of no Importance, If in no essential particulars the ordinance submitted by him differs from the principles laid down In the co-operative agreement; If he is, in fact, de termined to stand on thnt agreement and battle with sturdy enthusiasm for the translation of that agreement Into a for mal contract; If he has set his heart on the achievement of that kind of rapid transit fpr which the people voted and to which thoy are devoted, then, we say, he will, find no moro enthusiastic supporter of his policy than this newspaper will he. ' The ordinance is a document of great length, .studded with technical terms nnd couched In formal language. It seems, a( a first study, to bo Intimately In con sonane'e with the co-oporatlvo agreement. We do not find, for Instance, any radical departure from the preferential guaran tees .provided for by Mr. Taylor. Wo should not bo inclined to consider tho omission of the Camden tube from tho negotiations as a major objection, al though In the 1914 agreement the profits from, that tuba, figured an an offset against possible losses for the city In preferential payments. Tho limitations thrown about the abolition of exchango tickets call for careful consideration. In deed, tho Mayor has invited publjo dis cussion and ho need bo in no doubt about getting it. Tho subject Is ot such vital Interest to the community that every feature of the proposed contract will be examined with extraordinary care. Wo' take t. from the .Mayor's attitude, thnt If any, vital divergence from the 1914 draft is disclosed, he will himself bo prompt to urge a correcting amendment of the proposed ordinance on his own account. While' we cannot acquiesce in the Mayor's intimation that he is required by the contract of 1907 to offer the opera tlon of tho new clty-bullt lines to the P. It. T., we most heartily agree with him that, irrespective of that contract, it is eminently fair and proper to give the present company every opportunity to operate the new system. Rapid transit wait not conceived in any spirit of hos tility to the P. It. T., nor Is there any such hostility evident In publlo thought at the present time. On the contrary, there Is virtually a unanimous hope that the P. It. T. will ratify without delay Its moral acceptances of 1914 and take a giant's part In the consummation of this magnificent public Improvement. We should protest most emphatically against any other course, except as a lost resort, and .we most earnestly hope that the pro posed -ordinance, If on examination It proves to be essentially the 1914 agree ment, will meet with a ready indorse ment by the P. It. T, and its afilliated companies. The situation is one which again calls A. Merrltt Taylor into the service ot jthepe6p.e. We anticipate that he will examine, ,. the ponderous ordinance with scrupulous care and Issue for the benefit of the publlo his analysts ot It. If Mr. Tay lbr finds that it is Joker-proof and snake clear, the publlo will be likely to throw behind it the full weight ot their sup port. And the record of Mr, Taylor is such that we may be sure he will bring forward no trivial objections If, per chance, in aome minor details or rela tively unimportant features it should differ from the program originally laid down. There will be no fight against the ordinance unless there is in it some vio lent saeriflee ot vital publlo Interests. We take It that the bringing forth of this elaborate eontraet means that the Mayer has reached a definite deelslon as to the elty's course, and has abandoned aay Mea of sailing in Mr, Parsons or other, eaperta.

Paris by- the Manifestation of His Curious Power He Thought That It WaB Magnetic. How He Used His "Magic Tub" By JOHN ELFIRETH WATKlNS IfJ 1778' there arrived In Paris an un canny geplus whose reputation for ability to heal the sick by a new and very sensational process caused him to be received with considerable awe. This wlrard, Erederic-Antolne Jlestn,er, was "forty-four ' years of ' age, tall, 'dis tinguished and Impressive a personality who, because of his extraordinary calm and self-reliance, radiated a. sens of health and hope to thousands who came In contact with' him,. leaving his native town of Swabla, Germany, he had gone to Vienna, where his had taken the de gree of doctor of medicine, but had left the "Viennese capital because ot an. alleged cabal against him, andbeforo arriving In Paris had traveled, throughout Europe. Mesmer took? an apartment In the Hotel Bourct, In the center of Paris, near the Place Vendome, and Immediately let It be known that ho was ready to treat Incurable diseases.., Vanity Fair, over upon the, lookout for new fads, especially new cures, at once, flocked to the new physician. 'He became the vogue. His picturesque personality fascinated his patients, especially those of the feminine persuasion. It became whispered about that ho possessed "maglo power." He Invented a remarkable piece of ap paratus that soon had "Paris by the ears. It was known aa the "maglo tub," and consisted' ot a covered cylinder, Inside Which ipatlents were seat'ed'ln tier". Each held a tube with the end ot which he touched that part of his anatomy which he wished to be treated. Inside the great tub stood Mesmer,. an lrtposlng flguro garbed in robes siggetlve of a magician and bearing an alleged "magta wand." As the "treatments" continued the patients would become excited, some of them falling into convulsions. These tho mysterious physician' would calm. Individuals were treated at private seances. During .such a treatment Mes mer would hold the subject's hand, touch his forehead and make before his face passes with tho open hand. These manipulations produced convulsions, hysteria and often catalepsy. The west ern world had never witnessed phenom ena of the kind, and Mesmer'a clinic be came the mecca of Invalids, hypochon driacs, mystics and savants from all parts of .the world. Mesmer had discovered some' forco of whose origin he was quite as ignorant as, waa the publlo at large. Confusing it with electricity he' called It magnetism more often, "anlmaj magnetism." Fol'. lowing the experiments ot physicists thep studying magnetic 'forces he 'later ap plied to his patients metal plates such as used, in electric, .batteries. He ,clalmed that hfs magnetic force originated In the planets and ' was altered .by their posi tions. According to his confused notion the .heavenly bodies floated -about In an Infinite magnetic fluid wh,lch he could transmit 'to( any. objects, animate or in animate. The Paris Faculty of Medicine ap pointed a .'commission to Investigate and report upon his phenomena. This body lnoludcd Bonjamln Franklin, then so journing in Paris.- Mesmer avoided the Investigators, although they appeared to: regard "him favorably. He later suggest ed that the' French' Government subsi dize him .by giving him a general an nulty that would enable, him to 'treat patients without chargo,, and to ths end Queen Marie" Antoinette was petitioned to grant, him an estate and chateau, also 1100,000. The . .QUeen referred tho proposition to the qdvcrnmenf, which suggested that the fampUs physician be given a pension of M a year and that he be knighted with the Order of St. Michael,, provided that 'ho would report all. of his discoveries to a medical board appointed by 'the ,Klng. But Mesmer scorned the Government's offer. Going to Spa he- established there a magnetlo clinic and. repeated hs Pars successes. Vainly petitioning Parliament to now conduct an Impartial Investigation Into his methods, ho 'became discouraged by that body's refusal, and sold his alleged secret to a. federation pf twenty-four societies which lie organized as a Bort of masonic order under a grand master. Each member hail "to .pay Mesmer an initiation ree or a nundred louls and. annual dues of slx.ty francs. To become a member one hod to be twenty-five years of age, and was required to abstain from tobacco. Among then members of this strange brjherhpod was America's friend, the Marquis de Lafayette. Becoming Involved in bitter quarrels, ana atuooorn. controversies, Mesmer left France In disgust, taking with him a fortune of SOO.OOQ francs. After sojourn ing for a time In England and Germany, he finally returnedyto his native Swabla, WljTp at the age of eighty-one he died in 1816. He gave to the world mesmerism, that mysterious force now more generally called hypnotism, and which after more than a century of Investigation by his successors still yexes the human under standing.
