Little Satisfaction Found la the Many Explanation Olvea Far the Foreaailea f ihm Phantasanacarla Which Cos to V aa We 8la 111 a thoughtful, woll written article on "Drnanui and Their Myatcrica," in Thn North Amerionn Herlow, Elisabeth Bialand remind aa that we are so fa nillar with the phenomonn of aleep that the atraugmt drwama come aa no aarprian. 8ho aaya, truly : "Prove that you have the hypnotlo power to make a man feci patnorplnaa uro without mutcriul caoo ; that yoa can force him to believe himaolf a sol dier, eay, or a woman, or that he ia throo feet high, -or two peruana at once, and ho will gapo upon till occult maa tory with awe and wild anrprian ho who every 34 hour of his life, with no more magic potion than healthy futiguc, with no greater wonder working weapon than a pillow, may orcato for himself phantaxmicnl dolutona beaidn which nil mesmeric auggoationa aro but tho Hut tent of doll commonplace. " BetuuMH people aro afraid f being thought anperatitiona with regard to dreama thero haa been an uneientitlo nvoidnnoo of tho whole topic, which ia no let superstition and puerile, the conaoquence of which foolish revulsion has been that one of the most curious fnnotkniaof tho bruin ia atiil in a period of universal invest iRation left uuex amiund nnd nuexpluiiietL Home dub bling there bo been in tlto matter, but bo far no tenable explanatMin haa been offered of those atruugo illusiona of Bleep with which all mankind ia fumil lor. Tho results np to this timo of I hi dabbling aro for tho moat purt of little mure valno than tho conteuta of tlie greasy, well thumbed dream books tluil foniand the only and dearly beloved (li brary of eighteenth century inilkmaidv and apprentice. The greater portion rif eucn labor a haa boeu bcHtowod on the Buliject has been mainly directed toward euVu-ta to prove the tixtreme rapidity with which the dream pause turouJi the mind, and that it ia some trivuui outward cause at the moment of rous ing from alnmber, aueh aa a noise, a light or tho like, which wakes tho brain to this miraculous celerity of ira agiuutive creation. The general conviction that dreama oconr only ut tho instant of the awaken ing shows how little real attention 'haa been bestowed upon itbo matter, since the most oasuul observation of "the dog that hunts in dreams" would show that he may he chusing the wild doer and following the roe in the gray kingdom of seeming without .breaking his slum' bars. Ho will start and twitoh and give tongue after tho phantom quarry ho dreams himself pursuing. But given tho truth of any one ox those assertions, still the heart of the mystery has not yet been plucked out, ainoe it ia not ex plained why a noise or a gleam of light such aa the senses are quite familiar wita In waking consciousness should at tho moment of rousing cause tut brain to create with inconceivable ra pidity a seriea of phantasmagoria ia order to explain to itself the familiar phenomena of light or sound. It in broadly assorted 4y many that tne anemory retains each and every ex perience which life has presented for its contemplation, but this is hardly true. It makes to a certain extent a ohoios and tshooses oftentimes with apparent caprice. To demonstrate ithe truth of this, let ono endeavor to recall the first Impression retained by his childish mind, and it usually proves to be some thing extremely trivial. A lady, interrogated aa ia this, de clared her first dear memory was a sense of the oomfort to her tired little 8-year-old body of the clean linen sheets of the bed at the end of the most perilous and adventurous journey, and of whose startling incidents her memory had pre served nothiag. Again this oapricioua faculty will seize on some few high lights In a vivid ploture and reject all the unimportant details. As a rule, however, it is the profound stirringa of the emotions which wake .the memory to activity. A woman never forgets her first lover, A man to the end of his life can recall his first triumph. Hiss B island believes that wa inherit many of the memories that oome to us. Waking aa well aa sleeping. Every one haa felt many times in his life a sense of familiarity with incidents that have had no plaoa in his own experience and hat found it impossible to offer any ex piaiiatioa for the feeling, posting sud denly around a turn of a mil upon a fnir and unknown lolidsrapn, his heart may bound with a keen sense of recog nition of its unfamiliar out I inns. In tho midst of a tingling setine of eiuction n sensation of thn whole incident being n mere dull repetition will rob it of its joy or pain. A sentence begun by A friend is recognized ns trite and old lie fore it ia half dour', though it rrlVr to matters new to the hearer. A sound, n perfume, a sensation, will awaken feel ings having no couiiection with tho oc casion. In sleep the brain is peculiarly active in certain directions, not being distracted by the multitndn of impressions con stantly conveyed to it by the live senses, anil experiment with hypnotic aleers prove that some of its functions becomo in sleep abnormally acute and vigorous. Why not the function of memory? Tho possession which during the waking hours were useless, and therefore re jected by tho will, surge up again, vivid and potent, and troop before the percep tion unsummoned, motley and fantast ic serving no purpose more apparent than do the idle, disconnected recollections of ouo's waking moments of dreaminess, aud yet it may bap, withal, that the tireless brain, forever turning over and over its heirlooms in tho night, is seek ing here an inspiration or there a mem ory to be used in that flerco aud complex struggle called life, New York Com mercial Advertiser. On Picture ef the Baiter. The German emperor must have been very mnoh amused when he read the speech of one of tlie natives of the Cam cjroons In proposing the health of the kaiser at a recent festival The speech was as follows: "The emperor Is tlie wisest and moat powerful man in the world. He sens the treasures in the mid dle of the earth, and he has them brought forth. Ho span the world with iron threads, aud as aoon as ho touches them his words travel over space. Ho bus steamships that sail on dry land. When a mountain stands in his way, ho bores a holo through it. If a river bore his progress, be builds a street in tho air.

A Itrglan of Knpeelal Interrat to Students of the Prehlntorle. The cliff ruin of thn San Juan and tho Mancoa have been tho center of at traction, havo been viewed from all sides, mid their wonders have been told and retold to tho world timo and timo again. Scientific men havo visited tho region, have penetrated southwestern Colorado and have considered that seo- tiou a pluoo of especial interest, because the cliff nnd cavo dwellings are probably tho oldest in this strange land, being the first built in that mysterious journey southward of a greot but unknown peo ple. For 90 years the prospector has followed the San Juan river and gawd with careless unconcern on the rough and broken walls, so full of interest to the arohtoologlst But tho mind of the prospector has no room for curios, and ho bus no timo for archaeological investigation. He sees only tho glitter of tho gold in tho sand, and thinks only of the time when ho shall have mode his stake In No vember of 1803 hundreds of gold hunt ers rushed madly into tho canyon north of tho Navajo mountain, traveled 800 miles over bleak, desert tablelands, suf fering terribly from the cold, hunger and the long, wearisotno Journey. In a few days they had ataked off all tho availablo laud for CO miles up and down the river and then retnrncd home with out having obtained so much aa a color of gold, and today have nothing to show for it but tho stakes. It is one of tho most wildly pictur esque aud beautiful regions in tho world. The bleak old Navajo mountain risea abruptly and towers liko a grim sentinel over the surrounding mesas, while in a canyon gorge more thau 8,000 feet below its base the Kio San Juan appears liko a silver threaiL The canyon is several miles wide, and a descent can bo mado to tho river only by a prooipi tons trail, but as tho river approaches the groat Colorado the canyon becomes more narrow and tho wall more porpeii dioulur, aud when it merges into tho Grand canyon it is scarcely more than a deep, dark channel A few miles from tho Colorado river, where tho canyon is uot moro than 800 or 1,000 feet from wall to wall, and whoro tho walls are perpendicular and smooth, on tho right wull aro tho pic ture of seven warriors with bows drawn to tho last notch, while across tho river on tho opposite sido aro tho pictures of sovon antelope, apparently in full run to escape tho hunters. Those pictures aro well executed and aro in tho most iuuocossiblo place. Evidently tho artist had to be lowered from a ledgo hundreds of feet above the picture aud held suspended while ho performed his tedious task. There are many places ill tiro inystio southwest whero such paintings arc to bo found. Denver Field and Farm.
