    A TALK ABOUT DREAMS. 1
Every Human Being Is a Coward
When in Sleep.
Dreaming Fancy I* Unable to Create
tor Itself I.oikl Soiiihln- Neither
Li A elite I'n in Felt I'iilcmm
Ileally Present.
Did ever dreum of a really loud j
noise—n cry or a crush or explosion loud "j
enough to be startling? Presumably |
not—except in cases where an actual
pound disturbed your sleep, and entered j
into your dream just as you were wak- j
Pr.g. I, at least, can recall no such ex
qierienee, nor could auy person whom |
J hnve ever questioned upon tiiis point;
and 1 am convinced that the dreaming
fancy is unable, under ordinary condi
tions, to create for itself any very for
midable burst of sound without a cor
responding reality sis a stainulus. Even
your own cry of terror in u nightmare
is a real cry.
Not that dreamland is a land of ab
solute silence! Voices are heard there
frequently enough; it is a region full of
■whisperings. Hut its pale ghosts speak j
in gentle, modulated tones; the terrible
creatures that infest its jungles never
roar; no matter how vivid the light
ning flashes, no thunder ever peals in
its skies.
Let me illustrate by a case in which ;
the dreamer's curious inability to re
alize a sound which the situation ur
gently demanded was brought out in a
surprising maimer. I once dreamed
that a desperado held a pistol to my
head with murderous intent. He pulled
the trigger. Down came the liaminer !
with a snap upon the cartridge; but !
the pistol did not go off. Again he
pulled the trigger. I was in an agony
of apprehension, and thought that my
last moment had come; but no explo
sion followed. A Hiiid time was the
trigger pulled, with the same result.
Then tiie stress of my terror and ex
citement became too great for etndur- j
a nee, and 1 awoke. Evidently the dream j
was powerless to represent the noise ol j
t ho discharge, and this was interpreted j
as a failure of tlie cartridge to explode, i
it was extremely interesting, but 1
should not care to undergo the experi- !
ment again even for the sake of scien
tific demon st raft ion.
As it is with loud sounds, so it is with f
intense physical pain. There seems to
,h"
1 ~
STILL THERE WAS NO EXPLOSION, j
be no limit to the mental agony that
may be experienced in dreams, but you
cannot dream of acute bodily pain un
less there i.s actual pain—as when one .
wakes with a raging toothache aftei
dreaming of the tortures of theluquisi- j
lion.
Again I will illustrate. 1 remember
vividly remember —dreaming that 1
was run over and crushed by a railway j
train. It is rare that a dream goes so j
far; ordinarily one awakes before such
a crisis is reached, but in this case the i
nightmare was singularly persistent. 1
felt the wheels grinding through my !
body and dividing my members, but
there was no sense of pain; that, it
seemed, could not be developed by mere
fancy in the slumbering nerves. Nor
was I able to realize the experience of
dying in any degree. That, too, is be
yond the power of dreams; and when
the | oil t was reached where I should
have <vs pi red, I awoke.
On the whole, it seems probable that
no very intense action of the senses
ear. be represented in sleep without ac
tual physical provocation—though the
effect may be absurdly exaggerated.
The chill resulting from the slipping
off of a blanket, for example, may be
interpreted by the wayward fancy of
the siumberer as u sudden plunge into
ice-cold water.
The action of the eye offers the only
important exception to the above rule.
Bright flashes of light are not unusual
in dreams. An impression of uttei
darkness is also common. A pall of
black ii s ght suddenly falls upon the
scene, and we struggle in vain to use
our eyes; or we grope hopelessly
through an endless series of dark pas
sages. This. I suspect, is when sleep
overpowers the optic nerve while the
brain is still active.
It is a remarkable fact, that most
people are far more, cowardly in dreams
than in the waking state. Abject,
craven fear, a teirror like that of little
children left in the dark, assails the
stoutest hearts. It has often been
noted, too, that good men dream of
committing the most atrocious crimes
without the smallest, compunction. It
would seem that there is a sort of ata
vism in sleep; that the higher facul
ties slumber first and most soundly,
while the brute instincts of remote and
savage ancestors, latent In our waking
hours, run riot unchecked.

ROTARY SHIRT FRONTS.

The greatest genius so far is the in
ventor of the rotary shirt front. This
is a stiff circle about 13 inches in diani
eter, with a buttonhole in the center i
for the shirt stud to fasten it to the oi '
din;; ry whit-? shirt. This circle of linen
is divided into four equal parts, each
quarter on both sides being of a differ
ent pattern of percale.
This shirt bosom can. be worn for eight 1
days, or, in other words, it i.s an eight

shirt front is worn on Monday a quar

to a black and white check for Tuesday, j

I The United States government has
just concluded a series of very success
ful tests of the eophone upon the battle

1 principally of a plate,usually of metal,
varying in size. This serves as a dia

THE BICYCLE BRIGADE.
How a French Inventor Would
Revolutionize Warfare.
Wimtn (o Mount Troop* ( poii Gaso
line Motor Wheel* Aruieil nlth
Bayonet*—Some TMIIKN lie
Ha* Neglected.
The inventive Frenchman has come to
the front again—this time with some
thing quite up to date and awful. He
proposes to rig up an automatic bicycle
with fixed bayonets, and arm the rider
with a rifle besides. Truly, the results
©fa charge by a column of soldiers thus
equipped would be frightful, provided
the machines did not come to grief be
fore they reached the enemy. The in
ventor neglected to provide a smooth
bicycle floor for the charge and a device
by which a fallen machine could be
whisked out of the way before it upset
a dozen more. In other respects the
project seems to be quite feasible.
N ever the I ess the in vent ion has all a i ned
the dignity of being considered. That
is, it was not thrown down stairs when
first presented to the military authori
ties.
There have been many experiments
with the bicycle in the armies of Eu
rope, and the military authorities of no
nation have taken more interest in the
machine and its development than those
of France. While it is only within the
last year that any fixed effort has been
made in the United States army to test
the value of the bicycle as a method for
conveying a soldier from place to place.
The motor, the impelling force of the
cycle, says the New York Herald, is
loeuted just forward of the rear wheel,
and is of sufficient size to insure a sat
isfactory rate of speed. The small tank
which carries the fuel which supplies
the motor contains an ample quantity
to guarantee at least a day's journey
without replenishing. The inventor
claims that the machine will easily
make, over a fairly rough country, from
12 to 15 miles an hour, and believes that
with good roads, unimpeded, it would
even do better than this.
Perhaps the most notable feature ol
the cycle is the row of bayonets at
tached to a transverse bar, which is sup
ported by a heavy steel rod that runs
forward from the frame of the machine.
In place of the handle bars is a curved
gun rest, which may be moved upward
A FRENCH WAR IDEA.
to suit the desire of tlie rider. Every
rider is supposed to be aimed with ii
repeating riffe, and it will be under-,
slood that from the fact that be can
steer the machine with his feet he is
left entirely free to use the weapon as
unincumbered as lie would be if he wort
standing on the ground, like the ordi
nary infantryman of to-day.
Such a combination as this, the in
ventor argues, would be almost irresisti
hie. A charge by a company mounted
on these cycles would practically bcoai
of those most dreaded events in a bat
tle —bayonet conflict and a heavy tire
from riflemen combined. Every wheel
man knows how expert the rider of a
inoter cycle can become in maintain
ing the equilibrium of his machine
against both ordinary and extraordi
nary shock. It would take more than
mere contact with a movable body to
upset a rider of a motorcycle.
It lias been a favorite argument of
the opponents of the bicycle for rm\
use that the machines could never be
utilized except for purely transporta
tion purposes, and that therefore they
were in a great measure an encumbrance
to an army in the field. In time of bat
tle, it was alleged, they were of no value
whatever. The invention of this
Frenchman, in. his opinion, removes this
objection entirely. In fact, he says it
lias lifted the wheel out of the rut ol
opprobrium into which it had fallen,
and placed it among t he most effective
sources of carriage that is at the mod
ern commander's beck and call.
It might be said by quibblcrstli&t the
new cycle i.s not up to date because the
motive jwnver is gasoline rather than
electricity. This is unfair, because.elec
tricity for sued) use—for bicycles or mo
tor cycles— is only in the experimental
stage. While it is true that there is suf
ficient power to be obtained by elec
tricity to drive the motor cycle or any
other machine, there confronts one the
old problem of the storage battery. This
has never proved successful for con
tinued propulsion. The motor cycle for
war must be run on a basis of absodute
certainty. This is why M. Francois
I/TTereaux, the inventor, says gasoline
was used by hint.
The method of conveying an amount
of gasoline sufficient to supply the vari
ous machines is thoroughly modern. It
is a tank, very much like those with
which we are all familiar, mounted up
on a Ivorsi'less wr_ r ;on, which is also
driven by a gasoline motor. It i.s the
intention to rcclvarge the motorcycles
each day, as it lias been estimated that
the ordinary tank, which forms part
of the machine, contains just about a
sufficient amount of gasoline to supply
the motor for one day's travel, the
highest estimated rate of speed being
the basis of calculation.
